FAQs

A TIDDLY trip is an alternative to the cookie cutter coach tours that you may have been on before. A trip where you get to see more of a local culture, create memories to last a lifetime and make friends from across the globe. We curate the best experiences in each destination, ensuring the perfect balance of fun, adventure and free time. We take the hassle out of planning and organise accommodation, transport, meals and experiences. Everything is taken care of, so all you need to is pack a bag and turn up!

We are group travel for those that don’t like traditional organised tours. You get all the perks of travelling with an amazing group of people, making connections for life and seeing the best of the world, without being stuck on a bus everyday and constantly living out of a suitcase. It’s a slower pace for those that like to come back from their holidays refreshed, not in need of another holiday.

The inclusions vary per trip so be sure to check out the details of the trip you’re looking at specifically. In general though, trips include accommodation (double or twin room), breakfast daily, all transport, local experiences and some dinners. Each trip has a leader to help you settle in, coordinate the adventures and provide any help you may need. Generally unless otherwise specified, trips don’t include flights, lunches, drinks, visas, insurance, or anything else you may wish to do or buy while you’re there.

The accommodation varies a lot depending on the trip itself, from villas in Greece, floating bungalows in Thailand, farmhouses in Italy to chalets in Japan. We choose accommodation that suits the destination we’re in. Most accommodation is 3-4 star, so it’s not budget hostels but also not 5-star luxury either.

Have a look at the inclusions specifically for the trip you’re interested in as it differs per trip. But generally speaking, breakfast is included each morning, lunches aren’t included unless as part of a day tour, dinners are included for some nights (where specified). We try to cater to all dietary requirements so please let us know post booking in the pre-departure travel form.

We recommend budgeting some daily spending money for; drinks, snacks, lunches, dinners out, taxis/buses/car hire, retail therapy, and anything else you might want to do. We’ll provide more information for each deal on what you should budget for and anything else specifically for that trip that people might want.

This depends on the trip but generally we keep all trips to 6-20 people at most. We want to ensure that the group gets along really well and everyone has the chance to get to know each other.

We also have options to purchase your own room at a higher rate, which you can add on during checkout if it’s available.
