Why do you travel?
Perhaps you already know what moves you
You might want to feed a passion for local cuisine or discover a country's rich heritage, or this could be your first step to planning your luxury holiday. For travellers like you, we've created a collection of holiday experiences, so no matter what you're into – adventure holidays or walking tours, shopping experiences or river cruises – our experiences will inspire you to take the things you love and use them to help us create truly personal, tailor-made holidays.
Eat & Drink
An interesting and vital part of living culture is culinary heritage and cuisine - the foods, preparatory methods, and food-associated rites and rituals. Whether taking full-immersion cooking courses, hiking through vineyards and orchards for tastings, hunting down the best urban street food, or scouring new farmers' markets, fanning the globe in search of authentic food experiences is a great way to exercise your imagination and stimulate your taste buds. Just picture yourself talking and tasting with bakers and cheese-makers or stalking the woods with a truffle hunter. Our tours use food traditions to open doors to a region's cultural life and history.
exploreHealth & Wellness
There are times when you need an escape that has health and wellbeing right at its centre. Take care of yourself and be carried away during your next holiday to destinations and ideal environments that offer you a chance for a body treatment or even a soul treatment. Whether you want to do yoga each morning as the sun rises over the ocean; be supported in a healthy and revitalising detox programme; boost your fitness levels with a tailored exercise regime; or experience magical, mystical and spiritual people and places that bring about deep spiritual awakenings, we have a selection of suggestions and holiday ideas for a break dedicated to wellness.
exploreHeritage
Take a walk back into history, and submerse yourself in heritage that has withstood the test of time. Travel to experience the places where awe-inspiring structures tell us exciting tales that are waiting to be uncovered. Be amazed by archaeological sites and ancient monuments that authentically represent the stories and people of the past. Whether you're unravelling the legacy of an ancient civilisation, visiting sacred monasteries, or traveling through numerous periods of history, our holidays will help you get to the heart of a destination.
exploreLuxury
Whether it means getting the right balance of insight, independence and flexibility or more depth of understanding and immersion into local culture, luxury holidays represent all that is authentic about a destination. Luxury travel is a privilege truly experienced by few. But luxury holidays do not have to cost the earth. It's not about the marble bath-tub or the gold taps because one traveller's luxury is another's ordinary. True luxury is a great travel experience, where every aspect surpasses the expectation. It is travel enjoyed in relative comfort, without stress, pressure of time or daily routine.
exploreNature
You are a nature lover and want to discover world's most beautiful sceneries, most beautiful parks, waterfalls and walks? The serenity of the landscape, the feeling of being far removed from the everyday world, the walk through a canyon past huge waterfalls and through beautiful terraced hillsides are just some of the reasons why a holiday in the wilderness is so memorable. Appreciate the details. Observe the wildlife. Take in the sounds and smells. You can stop whenever you like to drink in a view or wrap yourself in contemplation. Enjoy learning to reconnect with nature and then you'll understand everything better.
exploreOutdoor Activity
Strap on your flippers, grab your snowboard, and pump up those mountain-bike tyres, because you can go off on a whistle-stop tour of some of the best activity holidays in the world. Canoeing, fishing, climbing, jumping, shooting – you have the freedom to try anything. It all depends how far you're willing to go. You can go on outdoors pursuits to the backdrop of the world's most beautiful natural scenery, discover the wide open spaces of places such as rainforests or national parks on a walking, trekking or cycling trip.
exploreRural & Agritourism
Pick fruits and vegetables, taste honey, learn about wine, shop in gift shops and farm stands for local produce, ride horses, and do much more on a visit to a farm. This style of vacation can include the opportunity to assist with farming tasks during the visit. One of the best parts of an agritourism holiday is certainly the high quality healthy food that is often grown directly by the owners of the farm or by nearby farmers and traditional dishes skillfully prepared.
exploreSports
Are you a fan of Formula 1? Always dreamt of experiencing a race up close in one of the dazzling Grand Prix destinations? Or perhaps your penchant is for tennis? Experience a wide variety of sports holidays, including everything from football to archery. Whether you want to brush up on the basics or hone your skills, you can take advantage of world-class facilities like championship-sized golf courses and professionally-sponsored tennis academies. What's more, on further-flung tours, there are numerous chances to experience the destination itself in between sporting action that suits your personal tastes.
