WHAT MAKES THE G&T CLUB SPECIAL?

Each, and every itinerary has personally been researched and designed by G & T (Gools and Thommo AKA Cheryl and Wayne)

Accommodation selections are chosen for their great location, view, style, feel and facilities, not just to a Star Category or as suggested by our ‘ground operators’. We make sure to use fantastic hotels that will add to your holiday experience. Some hotels are set inside a Colonial Residence and others are slick modern boutique style. All are hand-picked and researched personally by us!  All the accommodation options include a great breakfast so you can start each day with a good healthy meal. Most breakfasts have both western and local foods available to suit your taste.

You will have an option to eat at some of our favourite restaurants within close proximity to our accommodation. You can choose to join us and eat out or simply stay and eat in, it’s up to you! Funnily enough some of the best restaurants are within our chosen accommodation anyway. We have also personally checked many restaurant menus to make sure that they can cater for most of the obvious dietary requirements.  We also have a good variation between set menu, buffet and ordering from the menu with both western and local choices. The restaurants for our Special Farewell Dinners have both been chosen for the amazing food and the experience, which all adds to a night to remember. NB: Some destinations warrant an ‘all meals inclusive’ package.

Having both Gools and Thommo along as  hosts gives you something no one else can match. We will be with you the whole time looking after you personally. On top of that we will also have  Local City Guides throughout the tour. You are in a small group environment which is great and with so many support staff on hand you can create your own travel experience. You may have had a ‘group tour’ experience before where you felt rushed and dragged along by your guide. We make sure that everyone gets to walk at a comfortable pace and have time to have a good look at things along the way. If you are a keen photographer, then you will have time to get the shot without losing the group. If you need to buy something special while we are out and about then we can make this happen without making the group wait. In our opinion, this is really important in a group environment.

Most importantly we made sure we put together a ‘Great Value’ product, not necessarily the cheapest but well worth the few extra dollars for an amazing experience! We have chosen our dates and itinerary for each country, with consideration given to the best possible weather, the lesser crowds and the best cultural and wildlife experiences.

Maximum group size will differ depending on the destination. Often a smaller group will warrant a much smaller vehicle like a coaster bus (this can mean that luggage travels separate from the group) NOT IDEAL!! Sometimes by adding just one extra guest we can then utilise a larger vehicle which then gives us all more leg room with some spare seats. G&T Travel Club sometimes secure an entire accommodation place for exclusive use which does in turn limit the number of rooms available. Often, we are running with just 10-12 rooms per tour departure. This is what creates our maximum group size. In boutique style accommodation, rooms can be limited and with our solo travellers taking up the single room option, this can decrease the total group size.  Sometimes a fleet of individual 4WD vehicles are used to allow us to get off the beaten track & offer a much more flexible itinerary. Every tour has been designed to provide the ultimate travel experience.
