Here are a few brief points that make us different:
For more reasons, see here. But in short it is we represent not only the highest quality in the marketplace but also the greatest value. Not one other company has our commitment, licenses, accreditations and expertise. If you were looking for success choose the best GoHen.com®.
There are 4 ways, either:
Only £350 deposit to cover the group, with remainder payable 5 weeks prior to the event. In certain instances for specialist programmes, increased deposit may be required.
No, we never operate in anything but a totally honest way. Unlike many other companies we are VAT registered but we apply this internally, so there are no surprises, all costs are presented up front and in plenty of time.
No problem up to 4 weeks before your event, thereafter it is more difficult as programmes have been committed. If possible make sure any changes are made before this time. If changes are made afterwards, GoHen.com® will endeavour to accommodate any alterations, however cancellation and or alteration charges may apply, (see the full terms).
Send everybody the confirmation e-mail you will get from GoHen.com®. They will see the programme and the commitment they need to make, give them a set time to respond, eg 4 days. And then let them know when you will need to collect money.
Simple don't pay for them. Experience tells that you should only pay for those who have committed to the event, you don't want to be left holding the baby so to speak. We can add late arrivals as required, subject to availability.
On booking you will receive a "GoHen® pack". This contains all the details you need for your weekend and more, plus some extras for your enjoyment.
In most cases it will be straightforward, but for adventurous activities make certain you have appropriate, durable clothing including footwear. The weather can often play an important part so if it looks like you'll get wet ensure you not only have your waterproofs but also bring a towel and a change of clothes. Also allow for a drop in temperature, so make sure you have your woollies and a warm coat. If in doubt call us, we're ready to assist.
No problem, just let us know well in advance and we'll make all the necessary suggestions / arrangements / alterations.
Yes as a totally professional organization we do, and we should do - they protect us and they protect you, see the full terms and conditions here.
Yes we strongly recommend it. Public liability under which you will be typically covered in the UK, will not extend past professional negligence (see terms), especially if you are in contravention of any of rules, regulations and terms. Having your own personal insurance will give you that extra level of cover. Make certain your insurance policy covers you adequately for you needs relative to your itinerary (eg specialist activities) and to the levels you need. If you're headed abroad personal insurance is vital, remember the levels of professionalism, application, compensation and subsequently your treatment may be nowhere near UK levels.
It's simple really, the best airfares are available directly. With the budget airlines and the ease of booking there is no competition. Our specialism is ground services not flights, so we concentrate on what we are good at and focus on providing you the best possible solution.
Hopefully you won't be spending a queen's ransom during your social adventure, so the difference is most often negligible - however you will usually get more for your money if you exchange locally. It's always advisable to take at least a satisfactory amount of native currency to ensure you can negotiate the basics of arrival (eg taxis, tipping, first drinks, snacks, etc). Then if you haven't changed enough money in advance you can use cashpoint machines or currency exchanges (for sterling, euro or dollars) when you get there.
