Luggage transfer service

Our door-to-door luggage service is designed to make your journey as hassle-free as possible. We'll collect your main suitcase directly from your home, transport it to your destination, and deliver it right to your hotel room (or cruise cabin) all before your tour begins. Please note that your luggage will be delivered to your first destination, not an overnight stop enroute. At the end of your holiday, we'll collect your luggage from your final main hotel and return it straight to your home. This is available on selected holidays, helping you travel with ease and comfort.

You can add our door-to-door luggage service during the online checkout process. Simply look for the option under "Additional options and services on request." If you've already booked or prefer to speak to someone, just give us a call on 01904 734152 and we'll be happy to help. If you're joining us on a river cruise holiday, there's no need to add anything, our complimentary luggage service is already included.

The door-to-door luggage service is available on selected holidays. On our luxury river cruises - excluding the Douro - this is included as a complimentary service for one 23kg bag per cabin. For our escorted rail holidays in Europe, this service is available as an optional upgrade and includes one case up to 20kg, delivered to your first destination hotel to ensure you can enjoy hassle-free travel. Look out for the upgrade option in the 'Enhance your holiday' section on our tour pages.

There are specific types of service available depending on destination and mode of transport. On our river cruise holidays, a complimentary luggage service is included, permitting one 23kg bag per cabin. For tours travelling out and back by rail, permitting one case up to 20kg, prices start from £179 per bag. If you are travelling to Switzerland, the return door-to-door service is available from £249 per bag. If you are travelling out by rail but returning by air, the outbound luggage service is available from £129 per bag. Whatever your choice, we're committed to making your holiday as seamless as possible, and your luggage will be carefully handled every step of the way.

If your holiday includes an overnight stop or multiple destinations, there's no need to worry about your luggage, we'll take care of it. With our door-to-door luggage service, you'll travel with a small overnight bag, while your larger suitcase will be delivered directly to your first main hotel.

Please note, this service is separate from internal group luggage transfers where your luggage will be transferred between hotels during your holiday. Instead with this optional upgrade, your suitcase will be waiting for you at your main destination and will be collected from your final hotel and returned straight to your home, to make your journey as hassle-free as possible.

For rail tours, your luggage will be collected from your home 7-10 days before departure and delivered to your destination hotel ahead of your arrival. If your tour involves flights, you'll take your luggage with you on the flight. But don't worry, for any other transfers during your journey, we'll make sure your larger suitcase is always waiting for you at each destination, so you can enjoy your time away without the stress of carrying it around.
