      TravelerWritten January 2023

      This is a trip for three. My wife and I are taking our grand daughter on this trip for a high school graduation present. She is 18, so three adults. Let us know the single supplement and if you have discounts like most of the others are offering as soon as possible because we only have a certain travel window and other tours are filling fast for those in our timeframe

    • Explore!OperatorWritten January 2023

      A single accommodation is for £690 per person and it is on request. It means before a confirmation of your booking we would need to check with our supplier an availability. If your daughter doesn't mind to share a room with somebody else from the group you can book on a twin share basis. We do not have any extra discounts for the tour at the moment I'm afraid.

    • Explore!OperatorWritten February 2023

      Yes, sure if you travelled with us before you are getting a discount according to our loyalty program and if you have a discount from other company - our competitor we can apply it to your trip.
