New and improved for 2026 We’ve changed how we do Europe
Following customer feedback, we’ve redesigned our European tours to make the journey more relaxing and enjoyable. Because getting there should feel like part of your holiday.
Fully escorted by a tour manager
Every European holiday includes an experienced tour manager throughout, who know the routes and destinations. They handle tickets and hotels, share local knowledge and make sure everything runs smoothly.
4
The journey’s part of the holiday
Every European tour over four days now includes additional overnight stops en route. We’ve slowed the pace so you can enjoy the scenery as it changes – French countryside giving way to Alpine peaks, waking up in lakeside towns, discovering Europe at a better pace rather than rushing through it.
Your luggage is taken care of
At interchange stops, someone is on hand to assist with your luggage, so you can relax.
More time, better value
New seven-day holidays from under £999 to make your money go further. Extended tours of 10 to 14 days offer even more relaxed pacing with additional overnight stops and selected en-route visits, so you arrive at each destination refreshed and ready to explore.

Our JG hotel ratings explained We like to keep things simple. Our Just Go! hotel ratings are based on our own visits and most importantly, your feedback. Here’s what each rating means, so you’ll always know what to expect. You’ll find the rating listed next to every hotel in the brochure.
JG2 rating Simple and great value.
JG3+ rating A step up in space and style.
What to expect: Functional, well-kept rooms with ensuite facilities and TV. Some offer tea and coffee-making facilities. Larger hotels may serve buffet meals. Services are straightforward but reliable. For you: A dependable base when you’re out exploring all day.
What to expect: High guest satisfaction and often excellent locations close to attractions or with lovely views. For you: Hotels that impress and go that bit further.
JG2+ rating A touch more comfort and character. What to expect: Often better décor, homely cooking and well-reviewed service. Some have great locations or particularly strong customer feedback. For you: Everything you’d get from JG2, plus that little extra – a better setting or overall satisfaction.
JG3 rating More facilities, more space, more choice. What to expect: Often chain hotels or warm family-run properties with larger public areas, bars, lounges and restaurants offering buffet or waiter service. Bedrooms are typically more spacious with added features. For you: A comfortable environment with room to relax and options to suit your style of stay.
JG4 rating Quality, comfort and service at a higher level. What to expect: Thoughtfully designed bedrooms, attentive staff and higher-standard food and drink, plus a strong range of facilities. For you: A stay where everything feels that little bit more polished – ideal if the hotel experience is as important as the holiday itself.
Hotel accessibility
Modern hotels are generally well-equipped for travellers with accessibility requirements – expect lifts, ground floor rooms and walk-in showers. However, more traditional hotels often have features like narrow staircases, steps at entrances or rooms across multiple floors that can make access more challenging. Head to justgoholidays.com for accessibility details on every tour page or call our friendly reservations team for further help.

The highlights of Belgium await on this getaway, from the beautiful cities of Bruges and Ghent to the seaside resort of Ostend. We also pay our respects in Ypres, the scene of a series of battles during the First World War where casualties are believed to have surpassed one million. During our visit we witness the city’s daily act of remembrance, The Last Post, played in honour of those who fell in the Ypres Salient from 1914-1918. At exactly 8pm every evening, the police stop traffic around the Menin Gate Memorial to let the buglers complete the world-famous fanfare; an incredibly moving experience that should be observed first-hand.
Day 4 After checking out of our hotel we make an en-route stop in Dunkirk. The third largest port in France, Dunkirk has a rich maritime heritage and is also famous for the evacuation of Allied troops during the Second World War. The town also has a long seafront and a fine sandy beach, nicknamed the ‘queen of the northern beaches’. Later, we continue to Calais for our return ferry home.
YOUR HOLIDAY Day 1 Ferry to Calais and onwards to our hotel in Belgium. Day 2 – Bruges & Ypres for The Last Post This morning we visit Bruges, a beautifully-preserved medieval city of picturesque canals, and narrow cobbled lanes crammed with fine chocolate shops, lace boutiques and souvenir shops. Our next stop is Ypres, the scene of one the biggest battles in the First World War. Having been completely rebuilt after the war, it serves as a place of pilgrimage and memorial; there are plenty of museums and monuments to pay your respects and find out more about the town’s historic role. One special highlight is listening to The Last Post, played every evening at 8pm at the Menin Gate in tribute to those who fell.
Menin Gate
Bruges
Ghent Day 3 – Ghent & Ostend For our first excursion we head to pretty Ghent, with its perfect patchwork of medieval cobbled streets, quaint market squares, striking churches, an ancient castle and plenty of museums which sit on a peninsula of peaceful waterways. No other city in Belgium has as many classified buildings, so make sure to admire the stunning architecture here, including St Bavo’s Cathedral, which stands on the site of a 10th-century church and a 12th-century Romanesque church. Due to the city’s power in the Middle Ages, the churches were converted during the 15th and 16th centuries into the impressive Gothic cathedral we see today. We then make our way to Ostend, Belgium’s premier coastal resort. Known as ‘the City by the Sea’, Ostend is a cosmopolitan gem that boasts miles of sandy beaches, a beachfront promenade, a yachting marina plus a whole host of shops, bars and restaurants.

After a brief stop in the historic city of Arras, famous for the UNESCO-listed Gothic tower which overlooks the town square, we conclude the day with a visit to the strikingly modern Lens’ 14-18 Museum. Day 3 – The Somme After breakfast, we explore key sites of the Somme such as Lochnagar Mine Crater, Newfoundland Park, Thiepval Memorial and Peronne. Lochnagar Crater was formed when a mine detonated underneath the German front line on 1st July 1916, caused by the British Army’s 179th Tunnelling Company Royal Engineers (nicknamed ‘The Moles’). This explosion signified the start of the Battle of the Somme. We continue to the Beaumont-Hamel Newfoundland Memorial Park, the largest protected battlefield site of the Somme area, with harrowing trench lines and shell holes visible on both sides.

Discover the wonderful Alto-Douro Valley and join us for an immersive seven-night cruise of gastronomic delights, culture and history surrounded by truly spectacular vistas. Beginning in Porto, famed for its colourful merchant houses and splendid Old Town, we follow the famous River Douro as our cruise laces its way across the border between Portugal and Spain; its banks peppered with enchanting vineyards, unspoilt walled villages, peaceful hillsides and sun-drenched terraces crammed with olive groves. This is an enchanting tour of sleepy villages and charming towns, with sumptuous dining experiences and a few culinary and cultural evenings of entertainment thrown in for good measure! There’s also the opportunity to visit the ancient Spanish city of Salamanca, renowned for its sun-lit golden hues, on a delightful optional tour.

Day 2 – Régua & Pinhão We depart the city after breakfast and sail to Régua; the largest town on the banks of the Douro in this wine-growing valley. Being such a beautiful place it’s no wonder the Alto Douro region has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2001. The town
played a fundamental role in the production and marketing of port wine, which was transported away by sailing boat from as early as the 18th century. Our next stop is the peaceful town of Pinhão. Located in the famous port wine region, in an area where the Douro and its surrounding landscape are at their most picturesque, the town is encircled by enchanting vineyards and the quintas that produce the wine.

Day 4 – Vega de Terron We moor up in Vega de Terron, which lies on the Portuguese border. The beautiful Chafariz dos Pretos fountain, set in the market square, is the ideal place to relax with a glass of port.

Why not visit one of the area’s iconic wine-making institutions, take a stroll along the pretty riverside or explore the Douro Museum to learn more about the valley’s wine-producing history. The optional excursion to Lamego is definitely recommended; this charming little town is also one of Portugal’s most important pilgrimage sites.

Day 2 – Knossos Palace & Heraklion We start the day with a visit to Knossos, a Minoan Palace, one of the most famous sites on the island. The palace was home to the legendary King Minos who constructed a large labyrinth to hold the Minotaur. Knossos is steeped in myth and legend, as written by Homer in his Odyssey: “Among their cities is the great city of Knossos, where Minos reigned when nine years old, he that held converse with great Zeus.”

Next is a tour of Heraklion, the capital of Crete and one of the island’s most popular cities. This is a city full of ancient history, being home to many
64
civilisations including the Mycenaeans, Romans, Venetians and Ottomans. Traces of these cultures can be found in the fortified Venetian walls and the Valide Mosque. There is so much to see and enjoy, from the vibrant town centre and the modern Daidalo street, named after the legend of Daedalus, the craftsman behind the Labyrinth, to Lion Square with the Morosini Fountain. Day 3 – Day at leisure Enjoy a relaxing day at leisure in Rethymno. Stroll along the charming harbour, unwind on the beach or simply enjoy the Minos Hotel’s welcoming hospitality and poolside serenity.
GOING SOLO DEPARTURES ONLY Day 3 – Arkadi Monastery & Margarites The Arkadi Monastery is a historical landmark known for its stunning Venetian architecture and its significant role in the Cretan resistance during the Ottoman era. Surrounded by lush landscapes, the monastery is a serene haven that offers visitors a glimpse into Crete’s rich cultural and religious history. Afterwards, we visit Margarites, a charming village celebrated for its traditional pottery-making heritage. Nestled amidst rolling hills, the village is a vibrant hub of artisans who craft exquisite ceramics using techniques passed down through generations. Walking through its narrow streets, visitors can admire the colourful pottery displayed in local workshops and enjoy the warm hospitality of its residents, making Margarites a delightful addition to the journey.
Chania
Crete Day 4 – Souda Bay & Chania We head to Souda Bay. Here we make time to pay our respects to the fallen soldiers of the Second World War with a visit to the Commonwealth War Cemetery. At the entrance, we find the names of the fallen, all 1,527 soldiers who bravely fought and died at the Battle of Crete. The brilliant archaeologist John Pendlebury is also buried here, the curator of Knossos from 1930 to 1934, who joined the British Intelligence Service to return to Crete and organise the Resistance when World War Two started. Afterwards, we travel to a wonderful destination and a historically very popular one! Many of the ancient civilisations who settled in Crete stopped over in Chania at one time or another. The result? A flourishing town, with a multicultural blend of architecture, culinary delights and cultural legacy. We enjoy a walking tour of Chania Old Town, exploring the narrow alleyways to find some of the trendiest tavernas and souvenir shops, as well as museums. There is much to see in this truly beautiful place, a perfect blend of old and new. Day 5 – Day at leisure Spend the day as you wish in Rethymno, enjoy the local sights or relax at the resort.

Along the way, we approach several of the Aegean’s jewels, including spectacular Symi, Kos, the birthplace of Hippocrates, and Kalymnos, known as the sponge diver’s island.

Our tour includes a stroll through the spectacular UNESCO-listed Old Town, where mosaics of different influences are on display within the double ring of ancient city walls, resulting in a tangle of storied lanes dotted with relics of the Classical, Ottoman and Italian eras. Along the way, we learn about tales of the island’s past such as the siege of Suleiman the Magnificent and the knights of Saint John, a religious and military order who once played a crucial role on Rhodes. We also spend some time at the vibrant bazaar and take a drive through the delightful Mandraki Harbour, surrounded by early 1900 buildings, a medieval tower and three famous windmills.

Leros Day 3 – Day at leisure or optional excursion to Lindos* Take a trip to the charming village of Lindos, one of the real treasures of the island and indeed Greece as a whole. Here, an ancient Acropolis dating back to the 6th century BCE perches atop a picturesque hill, standing proudly over the Cycladic white-washed houses stacked like sugar cubes and the sparkling turquoise waters below. The village itself is a lovely place for a leisurely wander to discover local life, with cobbled streets dotted with little shops selling honey, olives and lace. Another pretty spot is St Paul’s Bay, which offers a unique vantage point to enjoy panoramic views of the surrounding harbours and coastline. Please note: a visit to the acropolis itself is not included due to the lack of protective railbars and 303 slippery steps. You may choose to visit and pay the entrance fee under your own responsibility.
Day 5 – Leros Island A tour of Leros island awaits today, characterised by lush landscapes and protected harbours. We take in historical sites such as the Franco-Byzantine fort and imposing Castle of the Virgin Mary on Mount Kasteli, plus the unique Leros War Museum, housed in a 1930s mountain tunnel built by the Italians as an ammunition depot. We also have time in the charming main port of Lakki, pay our respects at the Second World War British Cemetery and visit one of the most iconic symbols of the Dodecanese islands, the whitewashed Agios Isidoros chapel, built on a rock in the pretty cove of Gourna. Day 6 – Day at lesiure Free time to relax around the pool, enjoy the hotel facilities or explore the local resort area.

As well as plenty of time here, the full-day trip also includes a visit to the 18th-century Monastery of Archangel Michael (the island’s patron saint and the Dodecanese guardian of sailors) in the pretty village of Panormitis.
Day 13 – Panoramic Rhodes We embark on a panoramic tour of Rhodes, taking in picture-perfect scenery on the way to the ancient spa centre of Kalithea.

The town was once home to the Pirates of Omiš in the 13th and 14th centuries, who used Sagittae, very fast boats, to raid traders along the Adriatic coast. They would then retreat into the Cetina River where larger ships could not follow them. Nowadays, Omiš is a popular tourist destination and the Old Town is dotted with historical landmarks such as the fortress Mirabella, a 13th-century edifice. Another place worth exploring is the Fortress Starigrad, located at the mountain peak behind the Old Town.

Seychelles Islands Voyager 9 Days from £2,999
Apr 2026 - Dec 2027
JG4
Scattered across the Indian Ocean, the Seychelles offer the kind of scenery sun seekers dream of: expansive blue skies, turquoise waters and powdery white sands fringed by granite rocks and palm trees, where turtles feel so unthreatened that they come ashore in daylight. On this exciting long-haul getaway, enjoy an island-hopping adventure without the planning, cruising between a number of breathtaking spots and exploring paradise by Mega Yacht. Snorkel through a stunning underwater world, journey into tropical forests, look out for unique wildlife and indigenous birds, experience a BBQ on a deserted beach and a cultural Creole evening, soak up magical sunset sailings and relax onboard M/Y Pegasos, a luxurious home away from home with spectacular views in every direction. It’s guaranteed to be a trip of a lifetime, with memories staying with you long after departing the Seychelles’ beautiful shores!
YOUR HOLIDAY Day 1 Sit back and enjoy the overnight flight to the Seychelles, connecting through Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Istanbul or Addis Ababa Bole airport.
Holidays by Air
Day 2 We arrive in the Seychelles and transfer to Mahé’s cruise port, where we join the M/Y Pegasos mega yacht. After a welcome from the crew and some time to settle in, we set sail for our first destination, Ste Anne Island. The largest of the eight islands in the stunning Ste Anne Marine National Park, this was the site of the first French settlement in 1770 and served as a base for the Royal Marines during the Second World War. Set within sparkling turquoise waters and with a vast array of corals, it’s a fantastic snorkelling spot – you may be lucky enough to see green turtles feeding on the huge expanse of seagrass meadows here.

Day 3 We leave Ste Anne Island early in the morning to reach Curieuse, an uninhabited granitic island which was once a leper colony and is now home to giant tortoises and indigenous black parrots. Our walking excursion with a park guide takes in the amazing giant tortoise farm and along mangrove forests, before we later return to the beach for a BBQ under the trees. The afternoon provides the perfect chance to enjoy some sea activities or simply relax on the unspoilt shores. Day 4 In the morning we sail for Cousin Island, a thriving nature reserve since 1968 and a real paradise for birdlife, with several nesting beaches for turtles too. We take a trip to the Bird Sanctuary, which is in the care Bird Life International, and learn that an incredible quarter million birds breed on Cousin! Later in the afternoon we reach Anse Lazio
St Pierre
in Praslin, renowned as one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. The time is yours to spend as you please, from water sports and snorkelling to sunbathing and reading, before heading back to the ship for the evening.
Curieuse Day 5 We leave for Aride today, home to the Wright’s gardenia, found nowhere else on earth, and to bird species such as the Audubon’s shearwater and the Seychelles warbler. Be sure to look out for them while the island’s rangers lead us all the way to the top of the island, where the views are simply spectacular. At noon, we continue to the stunning St Pierre Island for a three-hour snorkelling and swimming stop before a sunset sail to Baie Ste Anne, where we enjoy a cultural Creole evening. Please note: Aride Island is often closed for a visit during South East Trade winds (from May to September). It may also close at short notice during strong surf.

Frequently Asked Questions Why do I have to pay a single supplement?
We sympathise with the frustration single supplements can cause and we acknowledge that it may be a barrier to booking for many. Unfortunately, many of our hotels charge by room, not by occupancy. However, we continuously work with our suppliers to keep our single supplements as low as possible.
Why do I have to pay a pickup point supplement?
We have listened to feedback from our customers who are looking for greater choice and opportunity to travel, with a much-reduced risk of their booking being subject to a pickup change closer to departure. For all 2026 departures, you can now choose the pickup point closest to you and pay a supplement (if one is applicable) or you can travel under your own steam to a pickup point that does not have a supplement. This means that we can continue to offer a wide choice of departure points that Just Go Holidays, National Holidays and Omega Breaks are renowned for. Pickups in BOLD have no supplement, those with a small + have a £15 per person supplement and those with a small triangle have a £30 per person supplement.
Will my pickup point change?
Pickup points are subject to change. Although we endeavour to pick up customers at the pickup point selected, it can sometimes be necessary to cancel some pickup points for operational reasons. When this happens if the pickup point is less than 10 miles from the chosen one, we will not offer any monetary compensation. If the pickup point is over 10 miles from the original one, we will offer a monetary contribution towards any additional transport you may need to arrange. Please be aware that the amount offered might not be equal to the full amount for the chosen way of transport to the new pickup location. Please see our full Terms and Conditions for more information.
What time will my pickup be?
On our European holidays, pickups will be early morning or on occasion late the previous night. Your exact pickup time will be advised two weeks before you travel. Return times will be late evening.
Who is responsible for my luggage during my journey?
As with all personal items, it is your responsibility to ensure your suitcase is on board the coach. Please make sure you see the driver place your luggage into the coach and on the way home carefully check you collect the correct luggage from the driver at your drop-off point. We cannot accept responsibility for misplaced or damaged luggage and, whilst we will assist you with the recovery of any lost suitcase, this will be upon receipt of the courier costs.
How much luggage can I take with me?
For holidays by coach, your luggage must be restricted to one medium-sized suitcase weighing no more than 18 kilograms (40 pounds); we cannot carry any additional luggage items. Also, we cannot accept responsibility at any time for your personal hand luggage. For tours involving a flight, the amount of luggage will be driven by the airline and we will notify you of the maximum weight limit in your final paperwork.
I have mobility issues – can I bring a walking aid?
You must advise us if anyone in your party has mobility concerns – the minimum requirements are that you are able to climb the steps onto a coach unaided. Please read the tour itinerary carefully to make sure it is appropriate for your mobility level. Due to weight and space limitations we can only accommodate a maximum of two walking aids on to each coach, either collapsible wheelchairs or collapsible walking frames or one of each; the maximum weight of any aid must not exceed 15kg.Therefore you must pre-book a space when you book your holiday and confirmation of this will be on our correspondence to you. Due to weight and space restrictions we can only accommodate one mobility scooter on a coach. If you wish to bring a mobility scooter you must reserve a space at the time of booking, and this will be available on a first come first served basis. Once the space is taken we will be unable to accommodate any additional mobility scooters. When you book we will ask for the scooter’s dimensions and confirm in writing whether it can be carried. Acceptance is not guaranteed as this may depend on the size and weight of the scooter and the coach. If you do not receive confirmation
82
that a mobility scooter space has been reserved you will not be able to bring one and if you try to do so we will not allow you to travel. In such circumstances your holiday will be deemed as cancelled by you and full cancellation charges will apply. We regret we cannot carry any motorised wheelchairs. Please also be aware that some of our hotels may charge you for charging your scooter battery; some hotels may not be able to accommodate mobility scooters due to their structural design, so while we may have room on the coach, if the hotel cannot support it, then we may have to decline your request to bring it along.
Can my special diet be accommodated?
Passengers are requested to inform us of any food allergies/ requests at the time of booking and we will attempt to accommodate them, however, special arrangements cannot be guaranteed. Passengers who are coeliac or follow a gluten-free diet are advised to contact the hotel before arrival to check if the diet is catered for. Some customers take their own bread for breakfast. Customers with severe food allergies or dietary requirements are advised to make appropriate arrangements with the hotel before commencing their tour and speak to the hotel staff on arrival.
What type of food can I expect in Europe?
On our European holidays meals are included as indicated on each tour page. These may be waiter service or buffet style and will be a set choice group menu often consisting of local traditional dishes. Don’t expect lots of vegetables in Spain or lots of potatoes in Italy. Do expect pasta most days in Italy and pork in Austria. In brief, we offer you the opportunity to embrace local food traditions served the local way and not necessarily the British way. Breakfast will be continental with occasional hot options added in certain hotels.
Why do I need insurance?
At Just Go! Holidays we are committed to ensuring you are taken care of every step of the way, from the day you book, through to the last day of your holiday. Occasionally passengers fall ill before they travel or have an accident whilst on holiday preventing them from travelling home with the coach or on the return flight or requiring medical care when abroad. This may impact you financially; it is a company policy that all our customers hold some form of travel insurance when purchasing one of our EU tours.
When do I need to pay the balance of my holiday?
The balance due dates (the period before the departure date on which your full balance normally becomes due) are: 8 weeks before departure for all UK mainland holidays, Events and Themed breaks by coach or 10 weeks before departure for all European, Ireland, Isle of Man and Channel Islands holidays by coach. For UK, Europe, Ireland, Isle of Man and Channel Islands holidays by air, the balance is due with us no later than 10 weeks before travel. For bookings made after the balance due date; full payment is due at the time of booking. You can also make interim payments anytime between paying the deposit and the balance due date.
Railway excursions
Please note that journeys on certain railways may not always be steam hauled, even when pictured in this brochure as being so. Diesel locomotive trains are sometimes in use on certain journeys over which, regrettably, we have no control.
What do I do if I have a special request?
All special needs and requests must be advised to us at the time of booking. These cannot be guaranteed but will be noted on your holiday confirmation document. If you need assistance, or may not fully be able to enjoy all aspects of your holiday you must tell us in advance so that we can maximise your enjoyment of the holiday. Before booking your holiday, you should be sure that you and your party are physically and mentally capable of completing the itinerary. We will not always be able to tell you before you leave if we cannot meet your special requests and we cannot accept your booking on the proviso that the request is honoured. If you will require a special diet please tell us at the time of booking, or as soon as you are medically advised, together with a copy of the diet.
Will there be a toilet on the coach?
All coaches that we contract have a toilet. Please note that due to their tank capacity we would suggest they are used sparingly. We also ensure there are adequate comfort stops scheduled within our journeys.
Will it always be the tour coach that collects me from my chosen pickup point?
Not always, sometimes we utilise smaller feeder vehicles to operate some pickups; these vehicles will transfer you to join the main tour coach. We do this to offer a wide range of pickup points and to keep the overall journey times for the tour coach to a minimum. Please note if you have booked front seats or any other guaranteed seats through our seat reservation service, these only apply once you join the main tour coach.
Are the excursions guaranteed to run on the day specified in this brochure? Our brochures and itineraries are put together sometimes over a year in advance therefore, unfortunately, things may change before the tour takes place and some excursions may be swapped from one day to another.
Will there be tea/coffee makers in the hotel room?
This facility is unfortunately very rarely available in European hotels.
Do I need a passport?
All our Europe, Ireland and Channel Islands holidays are sold on the basis that you are a British Passport holder. It is your responsibility to ensure your passport is valid for at least six months from the date of the tour return. You need to advise us if you are not travelling on a British passport for port security checks. In addition, any visa requirements are your responsibility.
What do I do if I’m not completely happy?
It is imperative that if you are unhappy about any aspect of your holiday, you raise the matter IMMEDIATELY with the coach driver, tour manager or accommodation provider. If you do not tell us at the earliest opportunity about a problem giving rise to your complaint, we cannot take steps to investigate and rectify it at the time. If the matter cannot be resolved immediately, you must write to/email the Customer Contact Department via the on-line form on our website, quoting your booking reference and the details of your complaint so that we may commence an investigation.
What is a JG Explorer Coach?
This is a brand-new deluxe coach, thoughtfully designed to provide an enhanced coach journey experience. We will always use our every endeavour to ensure a ‘JG Explorer’ coach operates a tour it is scheduled for. However, as with all things mechanical breakdowns can occur. Our fleet of ‘JG Explorer’ coaches are totally unique built especially to our specification, so it won’t be possible to find a replacement coach to the same specification. Therefore, in the event a ‘JG Explorer’ coach is not able to operate the tour we will supply our usual executive coach and make a refund of the premium paid and this shall be the full and total extent of our liability. On some holidays to Europe, Ireland and in the UK we may operate a coach interchange system. In these cases, you will join your ‘JG Explorer’ coach at the interchange. Our onboard entertainment system delivers entertainment, quizzes and games etc via Wi-Fi to your own device. Therefore, please bring your own smart phone or tablet to access this service. Each seat on the coach has access to a USB port for charging.
Entry & Exit system for visiting the EU (EES)
All non-EU nationals travelling to a European country will be subject to checks at the border. The EES system replaces passport stamping and automates border control procedures collecting and recording the data in your passport, your date and place of entry and exit from a European country and also your facial image and fingerprints. In most cases these checks will be carried out upon arrival in the EU when arriving by air, however, due to the dual French and UK border arrangements in Dover, these checks will take place in Dover for coach passengers, prior to boarding the ship for the cross-channel sailing. All travellers will be required to disembark the coach and pass through the automated EES kiosks for the checks to take place, once complete the coach will have a seal attached to the door and proceed to the port and check-in for the ferry. Customers will no longer therefore be able to join the coach at the port of Dover and the last joining point will now become Stop 24 services on the M20.
See pages 80 - 81 for coach pickups
Authorisation System (ETIAS) During the first half of 2026 the rules of travel to Europe will change and there will be an entry requirement for visa-exempt nationals. Travellers will be required to make an online application for and obtain an ETIAS travel authorisation to enter most EU countries, a fee of €7 will be charged. Once confirmed this is linked to your passport and will be valid for 3 years or until your passport expires if that is sooner. If you get a new passport, you will need a new ETIAS travel authorisation. You must carry the email confirming your successful ETIAS submission and unique ETIAS application number along with your passport when travelling as both documents will be checked at the border. ETIAS is not required for Crown Dependencies – Isle of Man and the Channel Islands, or the common travel areas of Northern and Southern Ireland. Further details can be found at travel-europe.europa.eu and we will update this page as exact dates and further details are released.
