ACCESS

If you require specific access information or have particular needs, please contact us before making a booking.

We will be happy to assist and provide the details you need.

MOBILITY SCOOTERS

If you plan to bring a mobility scooter on the trip, it is essential that you book it in advance.

Failure to do so may result in us being unable to accommodate the scooter on the coach, as we must ensure the appropriate ramp and space are available.

A note from Lindsey

To be completely transparent, this is a very popular event and it is expected to be busy with large crowds. If you are uncomfortable in crowded environments or prefer quieter experiences, I would recommend that you do not book this trip.
