Spring & Autumn Courses. We will be very pleased to give you a quote
for a course covering the dates of your choice, for as many days as suits
you, outside the above dates. Just let us know what you would like!
WHAT`S NOT INCLUDED IN THE PRICE?
Travel Insurance is not included in the Course Fee. We strongly
recommend that you take out Insurance Cover through Giles Insurance
Brokers, tel. 01387 249444, e-mail anne-mariesim@thebroker.co.uk.
You can of course choose your own Insurance broker if you prefer.
Also not covered by the Course Fee is your travel by car/train/coach to
amd from Oban at the beginning and end of the Course.
Also not covered is your personal clothing, sleeping bag or bed linen,
your towel, your pocket money, extra expenditure we might have to incur on
your behalf e.g. telephone calls, and any contribution we may ask you to
make towards the equipment you borrow FREE from us but you then damage or
lose.
Unprogrammed or emergency travel costs, such as if you arrive late, or
have to be taken to the doctor, or go home early, are not included in the
fee. Boats are expensive to run, so we must charge £60 per half-hour or
part thereof for special boat journeys, and £1.20 per mile for vehicle
journeys. These items may be covered by your Insurance.
Language Requirements. Course participants are given intensive safety
instruction throughout the Course, particularly before the Survival. So for
safety reasons, every youngster must have an understanding of English that
is on par with the average 11-year-old Scottish schoolchild!
Please phone or e-mail us for current prices.
TRAVEL to the PICK-UP POINT
You can come by train, or by coach, or by car, to Oban, where we will
meet you. Many children now fly to Glasgow Airport and then take a train,
coach or taxi to Oban (about 80 miles). Or you can of course come by car,
or by school minibus.
