About

Yuup helps visitors experience Bristol like a local. We work with hundreds of independent hosts, cultural organisations and creative businesses to offer memorable experiences that go beyond the traditional tourist trail. 

From food tours and artisan workshops to behind-the-scenes access, outdoor adventures and immersive cultural events, Yuup makes it easy for groups and independent travellers to discover the city's creativity and character. Every booking supports local independent businesses, helping visitors connect with the people and places that make Bristol unique. 

As well as our bookable experiences, we can work with travel trade partners to curate bespoke itineraries and group programmes that showcase the very best of Bristol and the wider West of England.

Key selling points for groups

• Experiences suitable for leisure groups, incentive travel, educational visits, corporate groups and special interest tours. 
• Flexible group sizes depending on the experience, with many hosts able to accommodate private bookings. 
• A single point of contact to coordinate multiple experiences across different venues. 
• Opportunities to combine experiences into half-day or full-day itineraries. 
• Strong relationships with independent venues, artists, makers, chefs and cultural organisations that provide exclusive local insight. 

Useful information for travel trade

Yuup has a dedicated team that supports group enquiries and bespoke bookings from initial enquiry through to delivery. 

Group booking procedures 

• Yuup offers a straightforward booking process and can work with travel trade partners, DMCs and group organisers to recommend suitable experiences based on their clients' requirements.

Rates and pricing 

• Commissionable rates and trade pricing can be discussed depending on the booking and experience.

Group sizes and event capacity 

• Group sizes vary by experience, from small private groups to events accommodating 100+ guests. We are happy to advise on the most suitable options based on group size and accessibility requirements.

Coach access and parking 

• As Yuup offers experiences across multiple venues rather than operating from a single location, logistics such as coach drop-off, parking and accessibility vary by venue and will be provided as part of the booking process.

Enhanced and exclusive experiences

Alongside public experiences, many of Yuup's hosts can offer exclusive private experiences for groups. 

These may include: 

• Private food and drink tastings 
• Exclusive workshops with local makers and artists 
• Behind-the-scenes access to cultural venues 
• Out-of-hours experiences 
• Corporate and incentive events 
• Team-building activities 
• Private guided city tours 
• Seasonal and limited-edition experiences 
• Exclusive hire of venues for bespoke events 

They regularly work with hosts to create one-off experiences tailored specifically to a group's interests.
