My club has asked me to investigate a Factory tour in the autumn. I think there’s someone on here who is a guide ( Hamwich???. ). Perhaps he or she ( or even they these days) could give me some advice. Thanks

Gary

Hi Gary,
Hopmog have just had a factory tour that I organised, including a Question & Answer session with one of the design team, I'd be happy to answer any questions you've got (if I can).

Oh brill. The troops want an idea on prices (tight bunch!) duration and start times. It’s a mixed car club but we think we’d amass about 20 or so bodies so would that be one group, split or mixed in with other ‘strangers’

Pm if you prefer.

Gary

Gary check this link out £32-50 per head but discount for 10 or more in a group.
Wirewheel was a tour guide, not sure nowadays though. Graham used to be but left a good while ago.

I haven't seen Ian (Wirewheel) in quite a while, but I understand he may well be on a regular visit to oncology.

When I decided to arrange a club tour I thought we'd get maybe 20 people, we finished up with 47.
The discounted group price was £21.12 per person, Tours last about 2 hours, we were split into 3 groups. Our tours started at 10 o'clock but that's what I chose, other times are available.
Options we chose were a buffet lunch at £14 per person, more expensive options are available, and a Senior Management Appearance at £300 for the whole group. We also had a Half Day Tea/Coffee Station at £ 3.25 per person, that covered morning arrival pre-tours and lunchtime.
Most of our members travelled up the night before and I organised a group Noggin style meal at the Mulberry Tree Restaurant just over the road from The Abbey Hotel. The Abbey has been greatly improved since MOG17 when I last stayed there and I'd recommend it now.

Thanks for the info chaps. Enough to put to our little group. Looks like a starting point of around £60 per head including a minibus from N Wales.
