We do our utmost to protect your privacy. If you request our brochure, sign up to receive our weekly e-newsletter or make a booking with us, this policy explains what information about you we will collect, how we will use it, the conditions under which we may disclose it to others, and how we keep it secure.

The core principles of our policy:

1. We collect and use individual client details only where we have legitimate business reasons and are legally entitled to do so.

2. We are transparent in our dealings with you as to what information about you we will collect and how we will use your information.

3. We use personal data only for the purpose(s) for which they were originally collected.

When you contact us (by e-mail, phone, fax, letter, in person or via our website) to enquire about our tours, receive further information or make a booking, we must collect personal details in order to fulfil your request.

Most of the time we need only your name and contact details (telephone number, postal address and/or e-mail address), but if you plan to enter into a contract with us by making a booking, we require further information relating to you (and your travel companion, if applicable). These may include:

– Full name(s) and addresse(s);

– Dates of birth;

– Passport details;

– Travel insurance details;

– Credit/debit card or other payment details;

– Emergency contact details;

– Special requirements (such as a disability or medical condition which may affect your enjoyment of the tour, as well as any dietary restrictions).

We may also ask some further voluntary questions during registration for certain services (for example, the destinations or themes of holidays you are most interested in) so we can gain a clearer understanding of our clients.

You are responsible for ensuring that other members of your party are aware of the content of this Policy and consent to you acting on their behalf in all your dealings with us.

If you would prefer that your personal details are not accessible to your travel companion via our 'My booking' area, we suggest that you make independent reservations.

We may retain personal details for the following purposes:

– To complete and manage your booking(s)

– To send booking updates and for general communication;

– To contact you with details of new tour departures, forthcoming events, surveys or competitions;

– To disclose to our service providers (in so far as reasonably necessary) in order to secure your booking. These can include overseas destination management companies, and accommodation and transport suppliers. Please note some may be located outside the UK/EEA;

– Card payment transactions relating to our website and services are handled by our payment services provider, Trust Payments. We share transaction data these companies only to the extent necessary for the purposes of processing your payments and any related matters. View Trust Payments privacy policy;

– In addition to the specific purposes mentioned above, we may also process your details if necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which we are subject;

– To disclose to organisations that perform business functions on our behalf and use the information for analysis including monitoring, measuring and assessing trends;

– To disclose your information for immigration, security and anti-terrorism purposes, if requested by overseas government authorities.

There are circumstances in which your personal data may be transferred to countries outside the European Economic Area (EEA) in order to manage your booking. Transfers to these countries will be protected by appropriate safeguards, namely the use of data protection clauses.

Our service providers will not retain any personal data that we process for longer than is necessary for the purpose of your booking.


We ensure that we have appropriate physical and technological security measures in place to protect your information, and that when we outsource any processes that the service provider has necessary security accreditations.

The information you provide to us is held in our reservations and CRM systems, each of which are located on the servers of approved third-party suppliers. These third parties are TigerBay and Radar Marketing.

We are compliant with PCI DSS, which means that we adhere to high security standards in order to protect your payment card details when you make payments to us.

We do not share your personal information with others for marketing purposes.
