I think it's too late already to book now with the spiking fuel price. This is really ridiculous but I totally understand the Shearings Holiday.

These are Crusader Holidays, Grand UK, Shearings Holidays and most recently Skills Holidays. All the others have gone down the route of new edition brochures with higher prices. The only operator who has surcharged customers who have already booked is Crusader on their European tours but to be fair their surcharge of £3.00 per day would probably not even cover the huge increase in diesel costs on their beautiful German Setra's, let alone the terrible exchange rate between the Pound and the Euro. One thing is for sure, prices for 2009 will be far higher than they are right now and my advice is to book a bargain while you still can!
