On Safari in South Africa - Luxury Safari Plains - Premier Collection from £3499pp

Enjoy touches of luxury as you witness South Africa’s unspoilt natural beauty on this unique safari experience.

Backed by the imposing Waterberg Mountain range, relax in total comfort in the five-star Safari Plains camp where high teas and sundowners promise an added touch of luxury to your adventures in the African bush. With decadent, tented cabins putting you right in the heart of the glorious savannah wildlife, and all-inclusive catering provided, you’ll be free to make the most of what matters and truly reconnect with nature.

Perfect for families, honeymooners or simply groups of like-minded travellers, this is a safari like no other where luxury takes centre stage. Set in the world-famous malaria-free Mabula Game Reserve, guided safaris take you deep into the bushveld and offer the chance to see the ‘Big Five’. Witness the thrilling natural cycle of the region’s wildlife and spot a whole host of the most exciting creatures in the flesh from prowling hyenas to the endangered red hornbills.

ADULT-ONLY ALL INCLUSIVE JAMAICA WITH PREMIUM ECONOMY FLIGHTS – 10 NIGHTS FROM £3,449

FREE SCUBA DIVING AND GOLF INCLUDED*

Dial up your next Caribbean escape with a couples‑only hideaway where All Inclusive really does mean everything is taken care of and your journey feels just as special as the stay, thanks to Premium Economy flights and private transfers smoothing the way.

Couples Sans Souci lives up to its name. Sans souci means without worry and that is exactly the mood that settles over you the moment you arrive. Days feel wonderfully slow and uninterrupted, perfect for drifting between conversations, sea views and those little moments that end up becoming the memories you talk about for years.

Even the activities seem to match the mood. Snorkelling with colourful fish, kayaking in calm water, guided nature walks and peaceful meditation sessions that seem to reset your whole mind. If you fancy exploring, hop on a bicycle. When you are ready to unwind again, the natural mineral pool and grotto feel like your own private spa.

The All Inclusive plan goes above and beyond the norm. Think beach grills, elegant dinners in a country club‑style setting and even in‑suite dining when you want that just-us feeling. Drinks are spot on too, from premium international brands to local rum and Red Stripe. And if you love to stay active, you can. Glass bottom boat tours, water skiing, Hobie Cats, snorkelling, even Scuba Diving if you are already PADI certified. Golfers get free transfers and green fees at Upton Golf and Country Club, with caddy and cart charges paid locally. There are even complimentary shopping trips to a local craft market for a little treasure hunting.

Do a lot. Do very little. Drift somewhere in between. That is the beauty of Couples Sans Souci. With a 48% hotel saving wrapped into the price, it feels like the perfect moment to make that Caribbean dream a you‑two reality.
