How to Book

Yes, in accordance with travel industry regulations, your booking is financially protected and in the unlikely event of our insolvency you would receive a 100% refund. We partner with Trust My Travel to provide this independent protection for you. Within 5 weeks of booking you will receive an email directly from Trust My Travel which confirms this. You do not need to do anything other than quickly check that email and notify us if there are any factual inaccuracies. You can find further information on these website pages including how to check that you are covered and what to do in the event that you need to make a claim: About Us – Trust Protects and Protection – Trust Protects.

If you book a private journey you will be travelling with your friends and/or family. If you book a scheduled journey we will make up the rest of the group.

We set our group size at a maximum of 12 in most destinations. In certain places it may be smaller, but never more than 12.

Most of our private groups number between 8 and 12, although we do host an increasingly number of smaller parties, often families. We rarely host groups of more than 14, although we have had fun organising a few milestone birthdays over the years. We once took over an entire village in Transylvania for a 60th birthday. That was a highlight.

It's not an area we have focused on over the years. That said, many of our guests own or run successful businesses and, after a successful trip with friends, have asked us to arrange something similar for their companies. We can tailor such trips to meet specific requirements. For example, quite often we arrange charity challenges, which by their very nature end up being light on luxury touches, with longer distances. We have just launched a 6-day Italian Coast to Coast for one organisation, for example.
