ABOUT US
Potter Travel is a Covid-19 Safe Registered Business and we have introduced a range of protocols to help keep you safe whilst on tour. This includes signing a disclosure form prior to boarding that you have no likely symptoms or have been in contact with anyone who has; having your temperature taken before boarding; providing hand sanitizer at the entrance to the coach to use upon boarding; encouraging passengers to maximize separation while seated on the coach to assist in a 1.5 metre separation; providing antiseptic wipes for those who wish to wipe down their personal area. Coach crew have the Covid-19 app on their mobile phone and heavy use areas on the coach will be regularly cleaned.
From its beginnings in the early 1990’s under the tutelage of the founders Bert and Michael Potter with Potter Travel, and Frank Howe with Tour Marvel, the company has grown to be a major provider of day and extended tours in the Canberra region and extended tours for clubs and groups from Sydney and the NSW South Coast. Just as when Bert and Frank started the businesses, we have always believed that the success of the tours we run and the Travel Club we look after is the result of the people who decide to travel with us, and then travel with us again.
