Booking is Essential

We limit the number of people on our tours in order to keep our group sizes to a sensible and reasonable number. In order for us to be able to do this we ask that you book the tour in advance. By knowing how many people will be on a tour we can then ensure that we have the correct number of guides to cope with the group size.

Payment is Through Paypal

Full payment is due at the time of booking and is done through Paypal, one of the most secure and trusted methods of online payment. You can pay by all major credit or debit cards. When you book we do not receive any of your details other than your name, the date you have booked for, the number of places you have booked and your email address.

You will receive an automated response confirming the date you have booked for and the number of places you have booked. You will also receive a receipt of payment from Paypal.
