The maximum number of student attendees on one tour is two classes (approx. 50-60 students). If you need more than two classes to attend, you must book multiple timeslots.
We recommend having at least three date and time options in mind. Term 2 2026 is almost booked out and we recommend having back up dates for terms 3 & 4.
