Group sizes vary between tours. Some holidays will have 15 people or fewer, while others may be for up to 45 travellers. We endeavour to make sure the size of the group has a positive impact on each trip and our guests almost always say that the “group” was one of the highlights of the trip!
We have partnered with Sherpa, an on-line self service tool that allows you to search up-to-date information regarding travel entry requirements for all countries and also allows you to apply for eVisas or eTAs via their on-line portal. Just click on this link to find out more – Travel Requirements & Visa Service
You can also refer to the Foreign Travel Advice section on the gov.uk website: Foreign travel advice - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk). Click on your destination and then click on 'Entry Requirements'.
It is important to remember that passport, visa and health requirements can change before departure; therefore, we recommend you regularly familiarise yourself with the latest requirements before you travel. If you cannot travel because you have not complied with any passport/entry/immigration requirements, we are unable to accept any responsibility.
For some destinations, it is not always discernable that a visa is required for entry at the border. For example, for some customers, to travel to the United States, an ESTA may be required. For Canada, an ETA and to India, an e-visa may be needed. Please do check your requirements to avoid any unnecessary cost and delays.
These holidays are purposefully designed to operate as inter-linked modules or 'modular tours', which enables us to ensure the nature and style of our group holidays is delivered as best as possible. On these 'Modular Tours' the number of customers may vary as customers may join or leave at different times. At the point when individual modular tours connect the number of travellers may exceed the 'Maximum Group Size' due to joining or departing customers overlapping.

These holidays are ATOL protected by the Civil Aviation Authority (ATOL number 11266). G Touring Limited is also a member of ABTA (the Association of British Travel Agents Limited). For any holiday which does not include a flight, we provide financial security for holiday arrangements booked through us by way of a financial failure insurance policy.
This charge is included in the cost of your Flight Inclusive holiday and means that your booking is secure in the unlikely event of anything happening to G Touring Limited (ATOL 11266).

Yes. Using your card to make purchases via our website is a secure way to pay for your holiday, and is as safe as booking through our telephone sales system. All sensitive information, including personal details and debit/credit card information, is kept confidential through the use of our secure server software. This means that information can only be exchanged between you and Travelsphere. No third party can access this data. All historical information regarding card, name and address details is held on a secure computer. We do not retain live records of customers' personal details or credit card information on our web servers after the transaction has been completed, so you will need to enter your details each time you book online. We are a member of ABTA and abide by its Code of Practice. Credit/debit card payments will be automatically encrypted using Secure Socket Layers (SSL). This technology ensures that your credit/debit card numbers are not accessible by unauthorised persons and are as safe as possible. This means the credit and debit card numbers are securely processed into code when sent to us. Only the scrambled encoded data is then sent over the internet, which Travelsphere receives and decodes. Furthermore, as required by the UK Data Protection Acts of 1984 and 1998, we follow strict security procedures in the storage and disclosure of information which you have given us, to prevent unauthorised access.
There is no fee for using your credit card.

Requirements vary depending on the holiday but you will usually need a passport that is valid for at least another six months at the time of departure.

Our holiday advisors are not medically trained, so we are unable to advise you about vaccinations. Please contact your GP or practice nurse, as they will be able to advise on any vaccinations that may be necessary.
You’ll receive your Final holiday documents approximately 14 days prior to your departure with all you need to know before you travel.
Airlines now operate ticketless systems and airline tickets are no longer issued. If you can check in online, details on how to do so will be included in your Final Holiday Information, alternatively you will be able to check in upon arrival at the airport.
Please review these documents carefully as these will contain all the information needed about your flights (if included), your hotels and a full itinerary. We may also include FAQ’s that are specific to your holiday, please take care to read these to help you prepare for a holiday of a lifetime!
For details of all national currencies and the latest exchange rates, we recommend visiting www.xe.com.
For advice on climate and temperatures around the world, we recommend visiting the BBC weather pages.
You should check in two hours before departure for European flights and three hours before departure for other flights.
We cannot guarantee that the Holiday Director will meet you in the UK and fly out to your destination with you. Sometimes they will meet you at the destination airport, depending on where they live and their work timetable.
We cannot guarantee that there will be a bath or shower in your room. We can request a specific facility with the hotel but this can only be a request. If you have any medical conditions that require access to a bath or shower then please advise us when making the booking. We will do our best to allocate an appropriate room.
Often they will but, unfortunately, we are never able to guarantee that rooms will have these items. If these are a necessity for you, we advise to take them in your luggage.
It is not always compulsory to take part in excursions included in your holiday, although this depends on the itinerary. Please speak to your Holiday Director and let them know if you don't wish to join the excursion.
It’s worth familiarising yourself with local expectations of the destination you are visiting prior to your holiday. In most countries tipping is now customary and expected in restaurants, bars and taxis in the region of 10%-15% of the bill. Always check any bill as tips may automatically included. Tipping of your Holiday Director, Coach Driver or Specialist Local Guides is completely optional - if you think they have delivered excellent service throughout your trip you may wish to recognise that with a tip, this is completely at your discretion
