VIP Home Departure Service™
Others may try to imitate it with offers of rail and coach tickets and others may
try to emulate it with a poor facsimile, that is really a very limited service
operated by a third party. The fact remains that the Titan VIP Home Departure
Service™, is still the original and the best.
Only Titan have their own team of
uniformed chauffeur-drivers trained to assist you in every way, together with their
own fleet of vehicles, comprising of air conditioned VW Caravelles to pick you
up from your home and take you to the airport for your international flight.
On
our escorted tours, you will be met at the airport from our transport, by a
member of our Airport Services team and a Skycaps porter who will assist you
with your luggage and check-in. This service is included free of charge on every
Fully Escorted Tour, on every departure date and to every client.
It is important to note that for all clients using our VIP Service, only one suitcase,
plus one piece of hand baggage per person will be permitted.
English Commentary Only
All Titan escorted tours are conducted in English only commentary.
Value For Money
Value for Money Titan escorted tours include a full range of excursions that
always include the must see highlights, entrance fees to many attractions, some
meals, entertainment and porterage (one suitcase per person). All local taxes
and airport security charges are included in the price - we exclude only the
documentation handling charge for entry into the United States from Canada,
as this has to be paid locally by the individual.
Daily Seat Rotation
A pleasant and fair custom, strongly supported by our clients, is the change of
seating places on the coach each day, giving everyone a variety of views.
No Smoking On Board
Titan maintains a totally non-smoking environment on board the coach for the
comfort of the majority. Tours are planned to include at least one stop on most
half day segments, giving the smoker plenty of time to 'light up'. All airlines flying
to Canada from the U.K. are also ompletely non-smoking.
Age Limit
Titan escorted holidays are not suitable for
children under 12 years of age on the date of departure and we regret we
cannot accept bookings for child en younger than this.

met by one of our easily identified staff at Heathrow or Gatwick. As you arrive
they will find luggage trolleys and direct and assist with your check-in
arrangements. On return, our staff will meet you as you exit customs to direct
you to vehicles for your homeward journey.
Easy Rider
Start your escorted holiday a day earlier. Flight times and the need to
check-in early may mean an early start on your day of departure, particularly
if you have a long way to travel to the airport.
Our Easy Rider service enables
you to leave home at a reasonable hour the day before your flight and stay
overnight at a hotel located near to Heathrow or Gatwick Airport and all with
the added comfort of being picked-up from your home. You will be met at your
home by our courteous driver and then transferred to your hotel. Your overnight
accommodation will be at a minimum four star hotel with good facilities and
a restaurant. All accommodation used will have en-suite bathrooms, airconditioned
guestrooms, tea and coffee making facilities, direct-dial telephone,
television and hairdryer as standard.
The following morning, after your included
breakfast, we will again collect you in one of our vehicles and drive you to the
airport in plenty of time for your flight and our meet and greet check-in service.
The inclusive charge for our Easy Rider service is £75 per person, based on twin
occupancy at the hotel. This service is available on outbound journeys only,
subject to availability. The supplement per person for a single room is £40 and
the reduction per person for sharing a triple room is £12.
Please note that triple
rooms will contain one double bed and one single bed. If three single beds are
required then one twin room and one single room will need to be booked at the
separate prices quoted above.
Please note: Our contractual rates with UK Easy
Rider hotels do not apply to late bookings. Therefore a supplement of £25 will
apply to all Easy Rider bookings made within four weeks of departure. Our Sales
and Reservations staff will be happy to advise you of your estimated departure
time from your home. During your overnight stay at the Easy Rider hotel, there
will not be a Titan representative available. However, the hotel will be able to
assist with any queries you may have and are in contact with our 24-hour
