🚢 “Cruising isn’t for me, but I want to see lots of places in one holiday!”

I’ve just returned from a fabulous 7 night cruise aboard P&O Azura, sailing from Valletta and exploring some beautiful Adriatic destinations, with an extra day and a half to discover Malta before setting sail.

🌍 My highlights along the way…

🇭🇷 Dubrovnik – Walking the iconic city walls and taking the cable car up Mount Srđ for breathtaking panoramic views.

🇭🇷 Split – Exploring Diocletian’s Palace, strolling the Riva promenade and enjoying an afternoon cocktail at Teraca Vidilica with incredible views over the city.

🇭🇷 Zadar – Wandering through the old town, listening to the unique sounds of the famous Sea Organ, climbing the bell tower of St. Anastasia’s Cathedral for the views, and finishing with a delicious flat white at my little coffee find

🇲🇹 Valletta – A real favourite! Visiting the beautiful Iniala Valletta was truly special. Exploring St John’s Co-Cathedral, strolling the Upper Barrakka Gardens, discovering gorgeous rooftop bars and hopping across by water taxi to Birgu (one of the Three Cities) Possibly the best €3 spent!

✨ So, maybe cruising really is for you!

It’s such a wonderful way to experience multiple destinations in one holiday, without constantly packing and unpacking.

With so many different ships, styles and itineraries to choose from, I can help you find the perfect cruise to suit your travel style.

Welcome Back, UAE – We’ve Missed You 🇦🇪✨

Great news for anyone planning a trip to the UAE or transiting through.

The UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) has lifted its advisory against travel to the United Arab Emirates. As a result, holidays to Dubai, Abu Dhabi and across the UAE will now operate as normal.

If you already have a UAE holiday booked, there’s nothing you need to do. Your travel plans remain unchanged and your holiday will go ahead exactly as scheduled.

Whether you’re dreaming of a luxury beach retreat, a family escape or a stylish city break, the UAE is once again ready to welcome you.

If you’re thinking about a trip and would like a little inspiration, perfect for winter sunshine, I’d be delighted to help you plan your ideal UAE getaway. ☀️🏙️🌴

☀️ A brilliant day out at The Hut, Isle of Wight☀️🌊

I had the pleasure of joining a hosted day with key suppliers at The Hut recently, and what a memorable experience it was.

The day began in the best possible way, a private speedboat transfer across the Solent, followed by a fun tender and RIB ride into shore.

Once there, it was all about long lunches in the sunshine, incredible food, flowing rosé, and great company. 🍷✨ Days like these are such a lovely reminder of the relationships behind the scenes that help create truly special travel experiences for my clients.

One of the things I love sharing is that The Hut’s story doesn’t end on the Isle of Wight. If you’re a fan of The Hut, you may not know there’s also a little piece of it in the Caribbean, on beautiful Jumby Bay Island in Antigua. It brings that same relaxed beach club atmosphere, but in a stunning private island setting. 🇦🇬🌴

It’s another wonderful reason to think about Antigua, especially if you love that laid-back coastal dining style but want it wrapped up in a luxury Caribbean escape.

Always happy to chat through ideas if you’re dreaming of your next trip! 🇦🇬
