Which are the best guided tours around the netherlands?

Are there any dog friendly tours?

How flexible are packages with specific diet requirements such as vegan

Do you get time to explore alone?

My friend and I are looking at going on a trip to India, but there's just so many website offering tours at completely different prices and from just reading the reviews, we are not sure how genuine some of them are. Where is the best place to start finding a company to use with having to pay £5000 each when other places are offering tours for around £1500-£2000 each. Is it really that you get what you pay for? How can the prices vary so much?

Are there tours suitable for people wi5th disabilities?

How many people would be on the tour, if its groups 20 or 30 people, I feel we will spent more time waiting around for other people if the groups are to big Their is always someone what slow times and I would not want to be sitting around doing nothing for hours.

I hate large groups and busy places, are there tours suitable for small groups

Are there any provisions for those who are hearing impaired?

How do you know you are getting the best value

I think a guided tour is pretty good, all organised and planned. Excellent for some of us who like to be herded around!

I'd like to know if there are any tours that cater for people with physical disabilities?

how flexible are the tour schedules? Do you have time to go off and do your own thing?

The only thing that puts me off a guided tour with a group is the stories I’ve heard about others in the group always ‘bagging ‘ the best seats etc. Do tour guides take precautions to make things like that fair to all in the group?

Could you explain why you choose to offer your tours without including air fares? I have been on several tours with other companies and really enjoyed the fact that they are normally completely hassle free - transport is usually all arranged, as are transfers at the destination country and often even travel to and from the departure airport. If I'd to arrange my own flights I feel I might as well just book local tours as well. With your caveat: We are not responsible for air arrangements you have made on your own. On occasion, it is necessary to change tour dates. In this case, we can only protect air reservations booked through Collette. I wouldn't in any case feel confident in booking with you and travelling to the destination country independently.

Amongst other things that spoil such tours for me is the subject of tips. Every Time you are told it's your choice but end up feeling uncomfortable leaving a coach without giving a tip for every driver if not the driver and guide. I go with a budget in mind and to give change or smaller notes that it has been difficult to get as currency is always in higher notes to take abroad and I need to hold onto for later is annoying to give up on tips.

Sorry, so my question is can you guarantee that this isn't something your company is guilty of too?

Going as a single traveller, could I be asked to share a room with another person of the same (female) gender, or would I pay a large single supplement?

Are wheelchairs available or do you have to bring your own?

Do you allocate coach seats, hotel tables, etc.? I am concerned about being 'stuck' with people I might not get on with for the entire holiday!

The tours look great but I would be concerned about the amount of walking as I have a bad knee. Is it made clear how strenuous each bit will be and are there options?

Again, related to solo travellers
Looking at prices why are single people charged so much more?
Even allowing for a supplement, I've seen massive price differences.

have you seen any arguments when people don't get on?

How do they keep it personalised and relevant to each individual yet still engage the whole group at the same time?

Do tours state what level of fitness you might need? Number of steps? Hills etc
