Meeting Your Expectations
Most of our holidays can be adapted to a certain extent to suit you. Independent holidays within Iceland, New Zealand and Australia are the most flexible, along with Canada and summer self drives in Alaska and Norway. Of course, geography and logistical considerations mean that some destinations, such as the Polar regions, offer limited scope for tailor making. In these instances we are able to give expert advice on exactly what can or cannot be done and then suggest an appropriate alternative should the need arise.
Iceland
We’ve been tailor making holidays to Iceland for over 35 years and are proud of our valuable experience and unmatched passion for this incredible country that helps us to create the perfect tailor made holiday for you. Our Travel Specialists regularly visit Iceland and they will share their unrivalled first-hand knowledge and guide you through every step of planning your holiday.
Iceland is bubbling over with natural wonders, fabulous places to stay and amazing things to do. Where else in the world can you spend one day riding a snowmobile across an icecap and the next hiking through secret fjords, searching for humpback whales or joining the dots between some of the world’s most beautiful waterfalls?
New Zealand
Our accredited Tourism New Zealand Kiwi specialists know this beautiful country well and can offer advice as to the best places to stay, which season to travel, tips on must do activities and hidden gems worth seeking out. They are on hand to create a holiday to suit you from flights and stopovers to all your ground arrangements.
A land of inspiring landscapes and incredible diversity, New Zealand is renowned for its clear skies, stunning scenery and no crowds, while its Maori culture is a fascinating part of any visit. The ultimate year-round destination, each season offers its own appeal – the long, warm days of summer, glorious autumnal colours, sense of renewal in spring and snow-dusted winter scenery.
Scandinavia
We have been operating holidays to Sweden, Finland and Norway for three decades and are industry leaders in travel to Sweden’s Icehotel. Our Scandinavia holidays are innovative and different, we know the ‘magnetic north’ inside out and can put together an independent itinerary to suit you in Norway, Sweden, Finland, or combining all three.
Not only is Scandinavia blessed with beautiful landscapes, the northern lights and the midnight sun, it’s also full of thrilling year-round activities – from husky sledding and snowmobiling to whale watching and island hopping. Our expertise in this region means we know the very best accommodation for combining relaxation, comfort and fine dining with a wide choice of things to do.
Canada
There is so much to see and do in this vast country, with its wealth of natural wonders and exciting experiences on offer, so let our accredited Canada specialists use their first-hand knowledge to put together an itinerary to suit your interests, including province to province touring and city add-ons.
Canada can be enjoyed year-round; spring boasts lower prices and colourful blossoms, while long hot summer days are perfect for exploring independently. Wildlife lovers can enjoy bear viewing and whale watching in the summer and early autumn. Spectacular fall foliage gives way to polar bear viewing in October and in the winter months try dog sledding under the northern lights.
Alaska
Our specialist team know Alaska well and are accredited Alaska Specialists. Let them help you plan a tailor made holiday ensuring you see the very best of this wilderness state, combining adventure with comfort.
Mid-May to early September is the best time to visit Alaska. Experience whale watching in Kenai Fjords or grizzly bear viewing Denali National Park; small ship cruises along the Inside Passage, self drive adventures or a journey along the Alaska Railroad. During the winter months, snowmobiling and dog sledding is on offer as the long winter nights are brightened by dazzling displays of the northern lights.
Australia
Australia’s sheer size means a little planning is essential and our team of accredited Tourism Australia Aussie Specialists are on hand to help. They know Australia well and will offer help and advice throughout the booking process in order to create the perfect holiday for you, including flights and stopovers.
The holiday opportunities in Australia are countless – drive the Great Ocean Road, sail among the Whitsunday Islands, enjoy fine wines and soak up the atmosphere of Sydney Harbour.
