Thanks to all those who placed their vote with Simply Groups, resulting in a finalist nomination in the category of 'Best Group Tour Operator' - Group Leisure & Travel Awards 2021.

Whilst unfortunately we did not win this year, we are delighted to know that our hard work & attention to detail continues to be appreciated and recognised by Group Organisers nationwide.

With 2022 already looking very busy especially with a variety of NEW packages now available, we look forward to working with many of you once again as travel positivity resumes.

Thank you from the Simply Groups team.

Due to changes in validity since leaving Europe, your passport is now only valid for 10 years from the issue date on your passport.

If your passport was issued prior to the UK leaving the EU with additional months on, those extra months are no longer valid.

EXAMPLE:

Passport issue date 21st Jun 2012
Passport expiry date 21st Dec 2022
Your passport expiry date is now the 21st Jun 2022

Most countries in the EU require that your passport is valid for 6 months on the date of return from your holiday, some countries it’s 3 months, meaning the last date you could return on the above example would be the 21st Dec 2021.

You can check if your passport is valid on the below link:

A fabulous day with much excitement.
It's been a long time coming but at last we're off and glorious weather forecast too, an added bonus.

Our 1st private U3A group in 9 months heading north on their 5 day holiday to the North East staying at the excellent Redworth Hall Hotel.

An excellent afternoon tea style lunch pre-arranged enroute at the stunning Newby Hall & Gardens near Ripon, where we were their 1st group in 15 months!
Happy hols everyone!

Thanks in advance also to Eurorider, who like all of us, are over the moon to be back on the road looking after our clients.
