The comfort of a 'Departure Lounge'...

No more standing in the cold waiting for your tour coach to arrive, our new and exclusive ‘Departure Lounge’ is located at the Village Hotel in Nottingham. So sit back and relax in comfort prior to your departure as your bags are loaded onto your coach. Once everyone has arrived and the coach is fully loaded it is time to board, get settled in and start your journey.

 

'Door to Door Service'...

Our ‘Door to Door’* service is offered as an optional extra (see page 5 of our brochures for prices or see the map below) and means all you have to do is pack your bags! Our partner transfer company will pick you up from your home (one address per booking) and take you to our Departure Lounge at the Village Hotel in Nottingham removing the inconvenience and stress of making your way to a joining point. On some tours this service is included within the price or offered at a small supplement. Please check tour pages in our brochure or online for Door to Door Offers.

*By confirming acceptance of our Door to Door service you provide us with the authority to supply your address to our partner transfer company for administrative purposes.

 

'Park and Ride'...

If you wish to make your own way to our Departure Lounge we can offer Car Parking (1 car per booking) as an alternative to our ‘Door to Door’ service. To secure onsite parking please inform us of your requirement when booking your holiday. Our low parking rates (correct at the time of going to print) are as follows

Up to 3 days 4-6 days 7-10 days 11-14 days
£20 £30 £35 £40

 

Joining at Dover...

Joining one of our European tours at Dover couldn’t be easier, just let us know and we will arrange everything for you. We can offer low cost parking and reduced rates for overnight stays at Dover both of which can be pre-booked. Full details will be sent with your confirmation. *Our ‘Door to Door’ service and ‘Departure Lounge’ are not available to customers joining at Dover.

 

Chill out at The Village...

Why not treat yourself to an overnight stay at the Village Hotel in Nottingham? You can stay pre or post tour and will enjoy reduced rates courtesy of our special partnership. Rooms can be booked from as little as £74 based on 2 people sharing a twin or double room including breakfast (service maybe limited due to departure times) and parking for the duration of your tour.

To book, visit www.village-hotels.co.uk and use the promotional code you will receive with your confirmation.

 

Best Seats in the House...

If you are seeking a little extra comfort on your journey why not upgrade to our Front Seats or for longer journeys on our European programme our Premier Seats*. Premier Seats enjoy a seat pitch of 905mm (35.5 inches) and provide an additional 3 inches of legroom space over and above our standard seats. At just £10 per tour Front/Premier Seats offer excellent value for money. *Excluding Mini Cruises
