About National Holidays
Where the coaches go
In the UK, trips head to the seaside, the Scottish Highlands, Cornwall, Devon, the Lake District, market towns, and big cities including Edinburgh and London. Abroad, tours visit France, Belgium, Germany and other European countries. Themed breaks cover garden tours, theatre trips, festive holidays and special events.
What's usually included
Return coach travel from a nearby pick-up point and accommodation come as standard. Many itineraries add a meal plan, such as breakfast and dinner, along with excursions and a tour manager. Each holiday page lists its exact inclusions, so compare these as well as dates.
Booking points
Book online or by phone. Seats are generally allocated in booking order, so earlier bookers tend to get more choice. The usual luggage allowance is one medium suitcase, around 20kg, plus a small bag. Cancellation charges depend on how close to departure you cancel; full terms are in the booking conditions, and travel insurance is strongly recommended. Confirmations and travel documents arrive electronically or by post. Gift cards are available, and payment is by Visa, Mastercard, Maestro or American Express.
