JUNE 2022 UPDATE
The last two years have had a massive impact on Betheltours Ltd, not only due to the unavoidable suspension of all trips due to the pandemic but also as a result of legislatorial changes that could affect whether and how we continue to operate our weekend trips. Currently, no decision has yet been taken on the future of Betheltours Ltd but we can confirm that we will not be operating any weekend trips for the remainder of 2022.
Don't forget that Betheltours Ltd only provide additional services (such as accommodation, transport, museum tours and excursions) to support groups who plan to visit Bethel, but the actual tours of Bethel itself are completely free and can be booked directly on the Bethel Tours pages of jw.org as soon as they become available again.

All places can be immediately secured with a deposit (£15 minimum per adult, £5 minimum per child, usually within 6 weeks of initial announcement) paid to your local trip coordinator, and must usually be fully paid for by 10 weeks prior to trip, latest (or as advised to your trip coordinator by us [often this is just 5 weeks]. Please phone us if an emergency arises; if we are able to re-allocate your seat, you may get a refund less any costs if applicable, otherwise the minimum deposit is non-refundable. The content of the trip may need to be varied without notice, and updates are usually issued to local coordinator as changes are made.
The coach company and the venues will have cover for their liabilities, but do take out insurance if you wish (check that it covers very short weekend breaks). Please remember to guard all valuables at all times. Any complaints should be made to the guide in the first instance rather than direct to any other provider of services. Parents are reminded to strictly constrain the behaviour and noise of their party, especially while in the hotel and on the coach. Please keep noise on the coach to a minimum. Wheelchairs should be provided by the user, if needed, but are available on free loan at museums and Mill Hill Bethel. Some trip detail or timing may alter if circumstances require it.
The standard 3-day trip currently costs around £158-£179 per person (depending on features and distance to travel from your base), assuming a minimum of 40 persons (maximum number is usually 59 or 63 [per coach] depending on coach(es) available at the time). This is non-commercial top-quality guiding at excellent discounted multiple group rates. A 2-day trip generally costs around £95-£120 per adult (all depending on your starting location, and the content of the trip)
