SELF DRIVE HOLIDAYS

NEW FOR 2026 SELF DRIVE HOLIDAYS

Enjoy the freedom of the open road and exclusive Grand UK value! Do you love the idea of our carefully thought-through itineraries, handpicked accommodation, and expert planning - but want the freedom to join on your own terms? Well, now you can.

With our self drive option, you travel to your chosen hotel at your own pace and in your own way. And then when you arrive, the choice is yours. You can use your days to explore at your own leisure, independently, or join our tour coach for our included sightseeing excursions, enjoying fabulous days out without the stress.

Back in your hotel, you are assured of comfortable accommodation, a hearty breakfast and at the end of the day, an evening dinner included too. What’s more, our coach holiday Tour Manager is on hand should you have any questions.

Whether it’s full independent travelling you are seeking, or easier travelling days with the knowledge of a planned itinerary, our self drive holidays offer the best of both worlds. And the best bit – SAVE £100 PER PERSON* when you self drive.

Look out for our Self Drive offer on relevant pages throughout our brochure here, but hurry, availability is limited.
