About the company
Taber Holidays have been a specialist tour operator to the Nordic countries since 1973 when we produced our first programme of tours to Norway, called simply 'Norway Only'. This brochure was based purely on tours by sea, however very quickly grew to feature a full range of tours by air and by sea including; motoring tours, escorted tours, self-guided tours using public transport, self-catering tours and specialist cruising.
Our current 'Nordic Only' brochure features the same full range of tours but now covers not only Norway but Sweden, Iceland and Denmark too.
Taber Holidays is the trading name of Roy Taber Ltd, we are Member of ABTA with membership number V2005 which means you have the benefit of ABTA's assistance and Code of Conduct. Many of the travel arrangements that we sell are protected in case of the financial failure of the travel company. Please ask us about the protection that applies to your booking. We also carry an Air Travel Organiser's Licence (ATOL), with whom we are also bonded under ATOL number 1228 to protect all holidays which include travel by air from the UK. In addition we are also an International Air Transport Association (IATA) Accredited Agent to maximise your experience.

Peter has worked in the travel industry for more years than he cares to remember and certainly more than we could ever get him to admit to. His knowledge of the nitty-gritties of travel operations is so extensive that we begged him to reconsider retirement and come back a couple of days a week to keep things in order! He's doing a very good job.

Susan has worked and lived in Norway for many years and is perhaps Norway's finest Ambassador of Tourism! She lives in Bergen where she often meets guests at the airport or at their hotels. Her chief love though is to be 'out on the road' escorting group tours, researching new products and visiting hotels and guesthouses.

Suzel has worked in the Scandinavian travel business for over 24 years and therefore now knows a thing or two! There are very few places she hasn't visited or people she hasn't met and as a result there are very few jobs she does not do; however her chief responsibilities are product development, brochure and website production and 'general managerial duties' i.e. running the company! During 2009 Suzel was awarded the Norway Travel Ambassador of the Year 2009 by Innovation Norway. 
Terry, or 'Mr. Iceland', has worked in the Scandinavian travel industry for over 18 years and, although his knowledge of Norway is excellent, his chief speciality is Iceland - he absolutely loves it and his enthusiasm knows no bounds! Terry is responsible for all tailor made itineraries plus he advises all clients regarding holidays to Iceland. 
Jo has worked in the Scandinavian travel industry for over 16 years and has travelled extensively throughout Norway, Sweden and Iceland. She therefore has superb first-hand knowledge of all the Scandinavian countries but most especially Norway, particularly Norway's public transportation system and road network. For this reason Jo handles most of our tailor made itineraries for Norway and Sweden and also works very closely with Suzel on product development and brochure production.
