Interesting that Travel Plus are further penalizing single travellers by upping their single supplement to a riddiculas and unnecessary 55 pounds per night for the Warsaw trip.

Not sure why anyone would use Travel Plus, or any "organised" tour, these days. The "DIY" route of flights, with accommodation booked through Travel Republic, Booking.com or AirBnB is so much cheaper...

Some people prefer for everything to be organised for them and are prepared to pay for that service. Others are just not comfortable or confident booking their own flight, accommodation, etc. It really is horses for courses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TPT are fair value when a GP is in the middle of nowhere as the transport to a forest in Sweden or Germany is priceless. But for anyone not to be confident enough to book Warsaw is mind boggling.

It’s not mind boggling if you are handicapped and require assistance, preferably by an English speaking friendly TPT driver or guide.

If you are handicapped then a travel company would be useful to use. But the vast majority of people aren't handicapped. Enjoy your tour of Warsaw.

2ndBender Posted November 15, 2018 Report Share Posted November 15, 2018 Done it both ways, independently and with TPT. Independent travel is good fun, and, as someone pointed out, getting ever easier to do. However, I've had some great tours with TPT and I can't personally fault them at all.

No defently travel plus went to Munich 1989 then a few more in later years, vojens and Gothenburg and ice speedway to Frankfurt and Assen, tee mill tours were about a the same time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
