Each self-guided holiday comes with comprehensive route notes and a map or pocket guidebook of the area you are exploring. The route notes contain information about the places you will visit, about the local transport you might need, along with the detailed route notes for your daily walks or cycle rides. We even include some tips for the best places to stop for lunch.

You can expect to receive your Self-Guided Pack containing your route notes, a map or guidebook and all your relevant documents no later than 3 weeks before your holiday start date. We will send your documents using signed for courier so that you can track your package and know that they are safely on their way to you. For bookings of more than 4 people we will send an additional Self-Guided Pack. If you do not need this additional pack please inform our sales team. Your pack will be sent to the lead booker so please remind them to pack it before you set off.

Should your self-guided trip be part of a longer adventure requiring you to leave home more than three weeks before your holiday start date, please do inform our sales team so that we can make alternative delivery arrangements.

Our Self-Guided Holidays are perfect for your next family holiday and are suitable for children of all ages.

Our partner hotels and accommodations are able to provide cots for young children, and some offer family rooms. We can also arrange hire of children’s bikes and tag along bikes for our self-guided cycling trips and with trips such as Lake Constance and the Danube offering routes on designated cycle paths you can rest assured in keeping your family safe.

As a parent we trust that you know your own child’s capabilities, please read the itinerary details to ensure the distances covered each day are suitable for your family. If this is a first time walking holiday for your family, a centre based trip is a fantastic option as it allows you to easily opt out of a days walking if a day of building sand castles, swimming in the pool or visiting museums is calling.

Please discuss this further with our sales team who will be happy to assist in picking the best trip for your family.

The trip starts and ends at your hotel in Vannes. All of our self-guided holidays are sold on a Land Only basis allowing you the flexibility to choose the travel method which best suits you. The nearest airport for this trip is Nantes Airport with many departures from regional UK airports.

If you are flying into Nantes Airport you can travel via public transport to Vannes. From Nantes Airport, take the bus to Nantes (approx. 20 minutes) from where you can take the regional train to Vannes (approx. 1 hour 10 minutes). Alternatively, BlaBlaCar offers a bus connection from Nantes Airport to Vannes, the journey takes around 1 hour 30 minutes.

It is also possible to travel flight-free from the UK to France.

By train, take the Eurostar to Paris. From Paris Montparnasse the journey takes 2.5 to 3 hours to reach Vannes. For more information please visit www.sncf.com/en

You can also reach Vannes by taking the ferry across the Channel. Driving is very straightforward; Vannes is between 2.5 to 4 hours drive from most of the ferry ports to the northern coast of France including Caen, Cherbourg, St Malo and Le Havre.

This holiday is offered on a half board basis, with dinners and breakfasts included in the hotel restaurant, or in a nearby restaurant on days when the hotel restaurant is closed.

Water is drinkable from the taps on this holiday. Please fill your personal bottles for your day in the morning. We do not encourage the purchasing of single use plastic bottles.

Brittany, like most regions of France, has its own delicacies to add to the French cuisine. Best known for its crepes, cider and delicious seafood; you can look forward to freshly-caught delights and sweet treats too. Creperies are around almost every corner, serving savoury buckwheat pancakes, known as galettes; with fillings such as ham, cheese and mushrooms; as well as sweet chocolate-filled crepes.

Seafood features heavily on menus, and with over 1000km of coastline, it's hardly surprising. Brittany reaps the harvest of the sea with fresh seafood platters and moules-frites (mussels served with French fries) staples in local restaurants. Many of the harbour towns have a specialty such as scallop fishing; for Larmor Baden the speciality is oysters and they pride themselves on the fresh taste of the sea. Another delicious dish to look out for is La Lotte a l’Armoricaine, a tasty stew-like dish of monkfish in a rich sauce.

Although Brittany itself is not a wine producing region, it has adopted Muscadet wine from the nearby Loire to enjoy with seafood. Cider is the traditional drink of Brittany but, unlike the UK, it is usually served in a bollee or cup rather than a pint glass.

Whilst we can cater for vegetarians, albeit sometimes with a more limited choice, we cannot always provide special diets.  Due to the nature of some of the trips that we operate and the countries in which we operate them, it can be very hard (and sometimes impossible) to cater for a wide range of dietary choices and you may have to supplement your diet with food/snacks from home.  If you have specific dietary requirements please do speak to our sales team and they will be able to advise you whether or not we will be able to offer your specific choice.  Please note that we are unable to provide separate menus and cannot accept liability for any problems arising from special dietary requirements or intolerances.

For this holiday we have selected two lovely 3* hotels to act as your bases in Vannes and in Larmor Baden as you explore the beautiful Morbihan Gulf. Carefully chosen for their warm hospitality, both hotels offer welcoming outdoor and garden spaces, perfect for relaxing after a day exploring. Wifi is also available but maybe you would prefer to disconnect and enjoy a slow pace of life!

Both hotels serve continental breakfasts in the typical French style, and boast well-reputed restaurants that are frequented by locals.

It is possible to arrange additional nights accommodation if you would like to enjoy this magnificent region a little longer. Please speak to one of our sales team for further details.

For this holiday you should take one piece of luggage and a daypack. Luggage with wheels is useful for this holiday. For international flights please check your baggage allowance with your airline.
