- What exactly is a Tailor-Made Holiday?
Tailor-making your trip is the perfect solution for a truly unique holiday. If you would like a private tour tailored exclusively to your requirements, then our dedicated tailor-made team will create a personalised itinerary just for you. It's easier and more cost effective than you might think. Just advise us where and when you want to go, the style of accommodation you'd prefer, any special requirements, and an approximate budget, and we will do the rest!
- Who is it suitable for?
Tailor-made holidays are perfect for all ages, all styles of travel and for any size of group – couples, family celebrations, groups of friends, honeymoons, school expeditions, special interest groups, charities, or simply travellers looking for that exceptional experience.
- What about budget?
We work to your requirements. We are happy to arrange tailor-made trips to suit most budgets – from cost-effective itineraries to more luxurious experiences. Generally speaking, the larger the group, the more economical the trip is.
- How much deposit do we need to pay?
The deposit amount is 30% of the tour price and the full payment for the tour is payable 60 days before departure.
- Is there a minimum or maximum group size?
There is no minimum (or maximum) size of group for a tailor-made itinerary – from single travellers, to groups of 22 chartering a private truck, to large school expeditions. Usually the larger the group, the more economical it is.
- Am I confined to a specific departure date?
Choose your own departure dates and length of holiday. Our consultants will also be able to advise the best season for your destination of choice.
- Am I limited with destinations?
With over 70 countries in our line-up, there’s a lot to choose from. You can also combine certain destinations easily to create a multi-country itinerary.
- What about tour leaders and local guides?
We can arrange for an experienced English-speaking tour leader to accompany you throughout, or just use the services of English -speaking local guides at specific sites and destinations. This can all be arranged as part of the tailor-made package.
- What about the type of accommodation?
You choose the style to suit your needs. We can match the style of accommodation to your budget or requirements. Why not mix it up a little and combine economical lodging with a luxury beach or city hotel at the end?
- What kind of transport do you use?
Depending on the itinerary, this may include a private bus or overland vehicle, public buses, minibuses, 4x4s, trekking, cycling, planes, boats or trains! Talk to us about the best options for your destination and needs!
- How will I know what is included? What if I have a specific activity I want to include?
We fully list the inclusions that make up your tailor-made package at the quoted price, so you are clear from the start what is and isn't included. Exactly what is included on your trip is up to you, and our team will work with you to create the perfect bespoke trip for you. If you have a particular activity in mind, a special event to attend, or a specific destination to explore, we can tailor the itinerary to meet your needs.
- Do you book flights?
We are able to quote for both land-only and flight-inclusive trips. As your committed one-stop travel specialist, let us do the groundwork for you when deciding on international flights. After all, we are taking the headache out of organising your ground arrangements so it makes sense that we do the same for your flights.
- What about extras such as insurance, airport transfers etc?
We can offer you the complete package including transfers, stopover arrangements and travel insurance. Please discuss your requirements with us and let us take the hassle out of your travel arrangements.
- What if anything goes wrong whilst I am travelling?
We will provide you with a comprehensive itinerary listing accommodation, contact numbers and details of our local agents and offices. We will also ensure your final documents contain our 24hr contact number in the unlikely event of an emergency.
