Recommendations for a great day out around Covid Restrictions:
We suggest downloading the operating Timetable/iGuide and pre-planning the stops and venues you want to visit on the day, due to walk-in bookings on the day not guaranteed. Contact the venues directly to enquire if a booking is required (most have online bookings now) and book in at the time the bus is due at that location or as close to. You can stay at that stop for 1 hour or as many hours as you like! Allow 1 hour for a guided tasting to get the best experience and don’t forget to plan where to lunch along the way!
