We are delighted to announce that our tours will be up and running again as from 17th May 2021.  All our tours will operate within industry safety guidelines and will initially be restricted in numbers as per the government’s Roadmap to Recovery.

These measurements will include:

• Ensuring that all visitors use hand sanitiser at regular points
• All visitors to wear face masks when travelling on our mini buses and at Trainer’s Yards.
• New guidelines on how to embark and disembark from our mini bus
• All mini bus seating will be clearly marked as to which seats can be used and which must be left empty
• Assurance that our mini buses will be regularly cleaned in between tours
• Compliant with the NHS Track and Trace system

The above list is only a guide and not an exhaustive list of the measurements we are taking and we will be constantly reviewing our procedures in line with government updates.  As is usual for our tours, you will receive an itinerary 10 days before your tour date and this will include any last minute revisions to our procedures. If you have any particular concerns, then please make enquiries prior to booking.

In addition, we are proud to be certified as carrying Visit England’s industry standard mark to confirm that We’re Good to Go. This logo shows that we are adhering to the respective Government and public health guidance, have carried out a COVID-19 risk assessment and have the required processes in place. This scheme has now also been recognised  by the World Travel and Trade Council’s Safe Travel as meeting its international global standardised health and hygiene protocols.  If you would like to know more details in advance of your booking, then please do not hesitate to let us know.

In addition, all our Guides have recently completed the  World Host Training in Keeping Customers Safe Beyond COVID-19.
Prior to your tour, should you feel unwell and are experiencing COVID-19 like symptoms, please do not attempt to begin your tour. Equally, if our Guide has reason to believe that you are unwell then they have the right to prevent you from participating. During our tours, we ask that you are respectful of others and follow the guidelines and remain suitably distanced throughout your time with us.
