Book a trip or contact us if you have any questions and we can help with all the arrangements. Once you have booked your trip you are free to change your departure dates (subject to availability and a small admin fee). Many people enjoy it so much they decide to extend their trip once on board and you can do this for a small admin fee. You can also leave the bus and join the next one that passes through (subject to availability). Passes are valid for 2 years so you can take plenty of time out in a few locations if you choose.
