About Us

A passion for travel, built on experience

Patchwork Tours was established in 2019 by a travel professional with many years of experience in the industry. What began as a retirement plan has grown into a welcoming travel company focused on offering enjoyable and accessible trips for its members.

We’re always working on new ideas and destinations, with plans to continue expanding our range of trips in the future.

Meet the Team

A word from our Managing Director, Pat Hooper:

“I have worked in the travel industry for many decades before retiring from British Airways in 2019. I started Patchwork Tours to recreate my wonderful childhood memories shared with my family on day trips to the seaside. Here at Patchwork Tours we aim to allow everyone to share exciting and affordable day trips, short breaks and theatre productions. Patchwork Tours caters for members of every age groups and allows you to escape from those addictive screens and go create wonderful memories for yourself and your own family.”
