How We Help

All the help you need

We understand that taking a young group away is a big responsibility! We’ve fine-tuned how we help educators for over 30 years to make sure we support you every step of the way.

From advice on how to complete your health and safety paperwork, financial protection and 24-hour phone support, to promotional tools and the deals you need to bring your trip in on budget – we have the expertise to make your tour safe and successful.

More and more local education authorities and governing bodies are refusing trips with companies that do not have the appropriate accreditation.

You can rest assured that we tick all the right boxes, so you can focus on making your upcoming school, university or music tour one to remember!


Health and safety first

Health and safety first

We take the health and safety of our educational trips very seriously, and auditing processes are used for all our excursions, accommodation and transport services.
We’re a full member of the School Travel Forum (STF), externally audited each year to demonstrate good practice and safety.

Help with the paperwork

Help with the paperwork

As well as help with the booking process, our Toolkit system gives you access to all essential information in one secure, online place.

We can also give you advice on how to complete your specific risk assessments and health and safety paperwork. This will include any required by your local authority or governing body.

Risk assessments – what you should know


Unrivalled financial security

Travelbound offers groups the financial protection they deserve.

As well as being a member of the Federation of Tour Operators (FTO), all of our tours are fully bonded by ABTA and ATOL, protecting your group against unforeseen events.

All the flights and flight-inclusive holidays on this website are financially protected by the ATOL scheme. When you pay you will be supplied with an ATOL Certificate. Please ask for it and check to ensure that everything you booked (flights, hotels and other services) is listed on it. Please see our booking conditions for further information or for more information about financial protection and the ATOL Certificate, go to: www.caa.co.uk
