2022 marks our 35th season of offering a hand-picked selection of special experience events. Every programme is tailor-made and evolves from months of forward planning, research and co-ordination.
We have been prevented from operating international programmes for the last two years because of the global restrictions introduced in response to the coronavirus pandemic. Travel was the first industry to be closed by the restrictions and it is the last to open up. People are starting to make travel plans and to take family holidays but the current problems at airports and with flights are going to take some time to be resolved. Delays and cancellations are largely down to added bureaucracy with extra paperwork and checks needed, and supply and demand issues caused by staff shortages.
Please do check this page regularly for updates as we are planning new programmes for 2023.
