How to compare activity quotes

A simple way to compare quotes from two or three providers fairly. Use it alongside the directory, then ask us if you would like help planning the day.

How do you compare activity quotes? Put them side by side and check that each one covers the same things.

A cheaper quote is not always cheaper once you add what is missing.

Line up the basics

Write down the date, the group size, the length of the activity and the price per person for each provider.

Check what is included

Food, a facilitator, kit hire, insurance, VAT and room hire can all be in or out. Mark each one as included or extra.

Compare the group handling

Ask how many instructors will be there and how they will split your group. More instructors usually means a better experience, and a higher price.

Check the terms

Compare deposits, cancellation rules and what happens if the weather is bad.

Choose with more than price

Look at how clearly they replied, how well they matched your goal and how confident you feel. The cheapest quote is only the best if it fits.
