Group Tours and Travel

The Great West Way is perfect for a group trip, with 500 miles of navigable routes to explore. 

You can plan an itinerary with a tremendous mix of activities to appeal to every member of your party, from wild Wiltshire walks to city shopping sprees. You could also theme your visit according to the group’s interests - culture, sport, wildlife, history. But whatever you decide on doing you’ll need to travel the route and there’s always the option to book a local guide too.

Getting to the Great West Way
The Great West Way is easily reachable from London via the A4 Great West Road, the Great Western Railway and the River Thames - all options suitable for group travel. It also has multiple airports for those arriving from further afield including Heathrow Airport and Bristol Airport. So wherever your group is coming from, you can rest assured they’ll arrive with minimal hassle. 

Moving around and tour guiding along the Great West Way
Once you’ve arrived, the touring route can be easily navigated by groups using a combination of road, bus & coach, rail, boat, taxi.  Book a guided tour with a local expert tour guide or a themed tour with local operators who can offer ground handling services with transport. Driver guided tours operate all year round and can be contracted for tailor made FIT or small group tours along the Great West Way. They are often available in different languages too. Chauffeur-driven airport and seaport services are also available.

Coach parking 
Coach parking is available at most major tourist attractions and destinations along the Great West Way, although arrangements often need to be made in advance. Call ahead to your destination to check what is available where you’re going, and also seek advice from the regional tourist website or information centre.
