Any restrictions will be noted in the “Get ready for the activity” section.

This section will also help you plan and pack for the activity, to make the most of the experience.

After booking an activity, you may need help getting to the meeting point, arranging campsite pickup, or have a question about your activity. By contacting the activity provider directly by email, you will receive an answer as soon as possible.
You will find the contact details of the activity provider on your booking voucher.

How do I know if an activity is wheelchair accessible?
To avoid disappointment, make sure your visit or excursion is wheelchair accessible if you need it. This is generally found under the activity title in the listing of activities in an area. You will also find it once you click on the activity to see full information on it, in the “About this experience” section. If it is not mentioned, the activity is probably not wheelchair accessible.

Booking
How do I know when the activity is available?
Each activity’s page has a calendar, with available dates shown in white. The activity is either full or does not take place on the dates that are in grey.
Once you have selected your desired date, you can enter the number of participants. Some activities offer limited places, so availability may vary depending on the number of tickets you wish to purchase.

How do I book a holiday activity using Campsited?
- After selecting “Activities” from the top menu of the website, type the name of the region or city you are heading to in the activity search field and hit the search button to see the trips and activities we have available there.
- Click on an activity to find out more information about it and to check availability. You’ll need to enter the number of participants, the date and the preferred language for your activity to check availability.
- Click on the departure time that suits you best and click “Select” below the price.

- At the bottom of the page, fill in any additional information required by the activity provider. The activity provider may still ask you for your campsite details. If you do not have this information, you can continue with the booking without filling them in and provide them later.

- Click on “Complete purchase” to finalise your booking.

How will I know my activity is confirmed?
Most bookings offer instant confirmation. If instant confirmation is available, it will be clearly stated under the title of the activity in the list of activities in an area, or in the “About this experience” section of the activity description. In these cases, the confirmation email and booking voucher are usually sent immediately after your order has been purchased.
In the cases where instant confirmation is not available, the activity provider will usually send a confirmation within 48 hours of the booking. But if you make a booking several months in advance, in some cases it may not be confirmed until closer to the date. You can see if this applies in the ‘Important Information’ section under your activity’s description.
If you do not receive your confirmation email and voucher when you should according to the information in the activity description, be sure to check your emails in your spam folder. If you still cannot find them, contact us at [email protected].

Does the activity voucher need to be printed?
Your activity booking voucher carries your booking number and PIN code.
Most of the activities offered on our website accept both printed and electronic booking vouchers. But please check the “About this Experience” section of the activity description, or your email confirmation, to be sure.
If mobile vouchers are accepted, you’ll have to click on a link in the email on your phone to open the mobile voucher. If mobile vouchers are not accepted, you’ll need to print your voucher to show it on the day of the activity.
