Matt
Asked on March 25th, 2025We're very interested in the Britain and Ireland Highlights (10 Days) tour starting May 23, 2025. However we won't be able to arrive at Heathrow until the morning of May 23. Since the tour officially starts around 6am on the second day (May 24), this should not be a problem. Is that correct?
- TrafalgarOperator•Written March 2025
Yes, the first day, May 23, will be your free time in London; therefore, arriving in the morning on that day won't cause any issues.
