Throughout the year we operate an extremely interesting and varied programme of day tours, not only to the theatre, ballet and opera but also to stately homes, gardens, galleries and concerts.
A great deal of planning goes in to arranging our day tours and we are proud of the reputation we have built for organising particularly imaginative trips.
Some of our destinations are not open to the general public and we often make use of specialist guides to ensure members gain the most from their day. On theatre trips we always purchase the best seats available.
We send out a newsletter approximately every 6-8 weeks with details of the next series of events. Special events and holiday information are mailed out at other times.
