Frequently Asked Questions
What is the single supplement and when do the 2026 tours come out?
The price will vary depending on which departure date you decide on, the single supplement price is generally 25% more than the double or twin per person. Our 2026 dates will come out around May this year.
Do you know a time for arrival back at Tower Suites please. We need to know if we can go straight to Heathrow airport on the 16th.
I was starting to book this tour for myself and mum but it says it is up to 80 year old. She is a very active 85 year old (goes to the gym twice a week and walks everywhere). Is there a possibility for her to go on this trip?
