04 — At each stop

The next collection starts at the agreed door

For a multi-stop Thames Valley day, each onward collection is agreed before travel. The chauffeur meets the party at the recorded door, loads any day bags and continues to the next visit.

06 — Pacing and stops

Leave room for bridges, river paths and lunch

One main stop and two or three lighter pauses keep the four-place day measured. Each town has an agreed meeting point and reunion time. Lunch or a reservation fits the preferred town, while mobility notes can keep walks on shorter paved routes when riverside paths are uneven or muddy.

First suits a couple, Business Estate adds storage for fewer passengers, and XL fits a family or small group with coats, a pushchair or purchases. The booking records the date, addresses, contact, group, carried items, town order, main walk, lunch, joining points, route, duration, waiting plan and confirmed cost.
