At Simply Groups, Shauna and Simon have been successfully tailor making and operating private tours for over 10 years. The company however has no aspirations of becoming a large and impersonal tour operator as the service they offer to their clients is of paramount importance. This level of service can only be provided by close and regular contact with our clients and over the years Shauna and Simon have developed many close relationships which are respected and enjoyed. They understand that is is vital cients feel comfortable and confident in their abilities to provide the groups with exactly what is required in order for the tour to operate smoothly.

Joanne Wood and Kathryn Latta work alongisde Shauna in operations, assisting with tailor making each tour to suit the clients needs. This is the engine room, where the 'i's are dotted and 't's crossed to ensure that every aspect of your tour has been booked and confirmed in writing. Where your ticket packs are meticulously compiled to provide each member of your group with comprehensive information about every aspect of the tour.

Sue Harris joined the team in 2007, is a fully qualified accountant and deals with accounts and makes sure that our business partners both in the UK and on the continent are remunerated as per the terms and conditions of our reservations. A sometimes complicated and time consuming task, which is professionally managed and overseen by Sue.

We sincerely hope that we can be of service to you and your group in the near future and look forward to hearing from you.

GROUP TRAVEL ORGANISER TRAVEL AWARDS

A massive thank you to all our clients who voted for us  in the Group Travel Awards yet again. We celebrated 10 years in business this month and we are proud to have such a loyal and  fun group of tour organisers and we thank you for your business and continued support.

The nominations we have received over the years are always suprising and winning in 2009 was a huge shock.  We are one of the smaller specialist group tour operators and to receive a nomination is a great honour. To win in 2009 was a massive shock and this year we were 'runners up'. We have never asked our clients to vote for us unlike many company's who actually send out voting forms. Shauna, oanne, Kathryn, Sue and I are
humbled that our clients have taken the time and effort to cast a vote and we thank you for this honour.
