How Does It Happen?
The connections and education from these tours is inspiring and rejuvenating. However, our previous costs for this tour were over £1000 per person – because we take care of our people. In order to demonstrate your commitment and participation, and to defray some of the tour costs, we have implemented a non-refundable administration fee. As part of the attendance confirmation, you will be asked to pay £100 per participant.
Please note that we will only process this fee once we and you have confirmed your attendance – and it is always free to register your interest. We assure you, you will reap so much value on this tour in networking, education and experience!
Once confirmed, if an attendee cancels their place less than 3 weeks before the departure date, they will be asked to pay 50% of the costs incurred by BarthHaas X for their individual trip.
Deadline to register your interest for the 2025 Hop Harvest Tours is 7th May 2025, but the form is always open.
