Group leader benefits with Halsbury Travel
Price
We expect to be the best and the most competitive in our industry. We therefore endeavour to beat any quotation from any ABTA / ATOL bonded travel company. We also guarantee that the price you are quoted is the price that you'll pay, everything is included so we won't add on any unexpected extra charges or costs.
Assistance with inspection visits for teachers
We understand that you may wish to visit your accommodation and resort prior to your School Tour, to better plan and prepare for the trip. We will be pleased to organise:
- 2 nights bed and breakfast for 2 people sharing a twin room at your chosen accommodation free of charge upon receipt of your first deposits (subject to availability).
Free place ratio
Recognising that groups of young people need to be supervised, our standard trips include the following free place ratios:
- 1:8 for coach tours and 2 day drips
- 1:10 for air tours and 1 day trips
Please note that we can customise the free ratio to your needs. Let us know at time of enquiry.
Hassle free
We organise everything for you, according to your requirements and fulfilling your every need.

Free promotional materials

Still hesitating?
Halsbury Travel is available, able and willing to assist at any time of day and night with all the necessary resources:
- We have contacts to arrange replacement coaches in Europe 24 hours a day. We will not leave our coach operators or breakdown services to deal with a mechanical problem on their own. We will liaise with your driver and the operator to monitor progress and we will be making contingency arrangements to send you a new coach in case they cannot fix your vehicle within a reasonable time scale!
- We can re-arrange channel crossings at a moment's notice if a network is closed, on strike or blockaded as we have accounts with all major operators.
- We can find accommodation at short notice for staff and pupils delayed because of illness, accident or getting lost and we can usually arrange for them to return to the UK at no extra charge on one of the many coaches we have in the resort.
- We have multi-lingual staff who can help 24 hours a day in the event of emergency - recent emergencies have included groups stranded because of the volcanic erruptions and passports left in the hotel safe.
