1st_Jan_1994 4,868 Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 Yeah, heard that on the news on the radio earlier.Thier day trips are a rip off, but they still came in handy if you were struggling for holidays from work or a difficult place to get to etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the way the ecconomy is heading again, its inevitable that other small companys will fold. While cheap/budget is good, make sure it has atol protection, just so you're protected. I'd hate to see any bears left stranded. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
