The Hammer Travel office is staffed during the week days only.  You may leave a message and someone will get back to you on Monday.  If you have a question regarding a trip leaving on Monday, call the trip leader phone number on your itinerary and leave a message.

If the airlines are flying to the destination and the hotel is open, Hammer Travel will be there.  Safety is our top priority, so if we need to cancel a trip due to weather, you will be contacted by a Hammer Travel representative.
