Because you are travelling independently, using scheduled coach and rail services, you are not part of an escorted group. Your drivers will provide a commentary throughout your tour. For medium first class, you will stay in selected motor inns or hotels. These are centrally located and have a selection of restaurants and bars, as well as the facilities expected in first class rooms. In tourist class, you will stay in centrally located hotels and motels.
Some motels have kitchen facilities as well as colour TV, radios etc.
I want to spend more time in a particular place. All of our tours are flexible and we can add or drop nights in each destination to suit your timetable. Contact us for advice and a new cost. Unfortunately it is extremely unlikely that there will be another person travelling on exactly the same tour on the same date and in the same class as you, so we are unable to match you up with another traveller. Transfers between trains, coaches and your accommodation are provided as part of your Thrifty Tour.
