Yes, I go on all my tours. I am NOT the guide although I plan the itineraries, attraction visits, book hotels and restaurants and all the other tour details. Our Driver/Expert Guide does the 'guiding' while we are on the coach, and when we have local tours I use additional local guides to add their unique knowledge and expertise.

I will always be your first point of contact for any issues that may arise.

Yes of course they can be made and if we can work it into our itinerary we will. It will be Stuart’s call to make that decision.

For example I am often asked if a round of golf can be arranged, and we do our best to accommodate.

We have also arranged for special occasion/anniversary dinners.

ACH (Bank Transfers) at no cost to you are our recommended form of payment.
