The late Norman Solomon created BASE in the early 1970s as a means of bringing shore excursion businesses together in an organized fashion, to serve the burgeoning tourism trade. In 2017, BASE was envisioned as an integral part of TDC’s strategic plan because the vast number of tourism SMEs were not organized and had sporadic representation and therefore no voice.
BASE will work on behalf of tourism entrepreneurs to provide members with benefits sourced on behalf of the many and because of the organization’s intended size, it will afford them a larger share of voice when negotiating with Government. It is hoped that BASE will become such a serious and strong lobby that they will be invited to the table to speak for their members alongside legacy organizations like the BHTA.

Liability coverage pays for property damage and/or injuries to another person caused by an accident in which you’re at fault. As a tour or excursion operator, you need excursion insurance to be recommended and listed as an excursion option for cruise lines. This coverage is also needed to protect you from the risks associated with both the tour activities themselves and your day-to-day business interactions and functions.
