Pre-Arrival Shopping Service
We know what its like to come half way around the world, and / or with small children in tow, and arrive at your destination tired and unfamiliar with the local shopping and restaurants. All you want to do is to get fed and get settled (and / or to bed).
Therefore we offer a shopping service so when you arrive you will have all the supplies and fresh ingredients you pre-ordered, ready to cook a quick meal, have a few drinks and nibbles and / or be ready for breakfast the next morning without having to worry about running to the shops or restaurants.
We are fussy about quality and value and know the best places to shop. We charge a nominal fixed fee, plus the cost of the supplies, for this service.
