My main specialism is in
military history. This is allied to my particular passion for living history/drama.
I'd like to introduce our new offer on local history/battlefield tours. I/we've a fair bit of form on these going back twenty years but this is what we're offering this season, prices per individual start at GBP 100.00 per person per day.
Following feedback from some tours this year, we have decided to introduce the concept of ‘Activity Levels’ to the list to provide guidance to clients as to the level of physical fitness required for each tour.
This will replace the single threshold currently which we currently use: “All tours involve a fair amount of walking often over uneven cobbled streets, hillsides or steps. Participants on all tours should be able to walk and stand for at least 60 minutes without aid or requiring a rest…” as follows:
Activity Level 1:
A gentle tour involving mainly visits to museums and well-laid out prepared battlefield stands within easy walking distance of coach stops.
Activity Level 2:
Tours involving a fair amount of walking over rough ground and the odd climb to an elevated viewpoint (this would equate to our present T&Cs definition above).
Activity Level 3:
More strenuous tours and our specific ‘walking tours’ involving walking of up to 6 miles per day (albeit in gentle stages with rest breaks).
