🎄 Budapest, Bratislava & Vienna at Christmas… all in one trip

This is one I’d genuinely book myself.

Spend five nights cruising the Danube, visiting three brilliant European cities when their Christmas markets are in full swing.

🇭🇺 Budapest
🇸🇰 Bratislava
🇦🇹 Vienna

You’ll stay aboard a five-star river ship on a full-board basis, with guided tours included and plenty of free time to head out and explore the Christmas markets, bars and cafés along the way.

📅 15 December 2026
🌙 5 nights
✈️ Regional flights & transfers included
🍽️ Full board
🛳️ Five-star river cruise
💷 From £1,349pp based on two sharing

I’ve done plenty of European Christmas markets, but combining three cities like this really appeals to me. No changing hotels, no trains between cities, just unpack once and wake up somewhere new.

If you fancy doing Christmas markets a little differently this year, drop me a message and I can get you the details 🎄🥂

🎄 PRAGUE CHRISTMAS MARKETS 2026 🇨🇿

One of my favourite European cities for a festive city break, and the dates are now confirmed! ✨

📅 28th November 2026 - 6th January 2027

Old Town Square and Wenceslas Square are at the heart of the celebrations, with huge Christmas trees, traditional stalls, Czech food, mulled w**e and the city lit up for Christmas.

But Prague is worth exploring beyond the markets too…

🏰 Prague Castle
🌉 Charles Bridge
🌅 Sunset from Letná Park
🎄 Smaller local Christmas markets
🚢 A cruise along the Vltava
🍷 And plenty of Svařák along the way!

I’ve put together this guide with the dates, things to do, what to eat and a few tips worth knowing before you go ✈️

It’s Benidorm, but not as you know it.

The perfect spot for sunset cocktails.

🇬🇷 ADULTS-ONLY LUXURY IN CRETE + A SUNRISE HOT AIR BALLOON EXPERIENCE 🎈✨

Stella Island has been on my radar for a while, and it’s easy to see why it’s become one of Crete’s most recognisable adults-only resorts.

Lagoon-style pools, Bali beds, beautiful restaurants, cocktails by the pool and an adults-only setting designed for switching off.

But this particular trip comes with something a little extra…

🎈 A sunrise hot air balloon experience over Crete is included, taking you above vineyards, olive groves and the Cretan landscape.

✨ 7 nights at Stella Island Luxury Resort & Spa
🛏️ Luxury Pool View Room
🍽️ Half Board
✈️ Flights from London Gatwick
🚗 Private transfers
🎈 Sunrise Hot Air Balloon Experience
💰 From £2,125pp based on 2 adults sharing
📅 7th July 2027

A brilliant choice for a couples’ escape, honeymoon, anniversary or simply somewhere special for your next Greek getaway.

Message me for details or to look at alternative dates and departure airports. 🇬🇷

🌴 The Maldives never goes out of style.

From endless white sand beaches to crystal clear lagoons and one of the world’s longest beachfront pools, Sun Siyam Olhuveli is the kind of place where switching off comes naturally.

Whether you’re planning a honeymoon, celebrating something special, or simply treating yourself to a luxury escape, this is the sort of destination that stays with you long after you’ve returned home.

If the Maldives is on your wish list, I’d love to help you find the perfect island and resort for you.

📩 Send me a message to start planning.

I’ve stayed here… and it’s one of the best luxury all-inclusive resorts I’ve experienced.

If you’re looking for a five-star escape that genuinely delivers, Regnum Carya in Belek is one I’d recommend without hesitation.

I stayed here a couple of years ago and what impressed me most was the attention to detail. The food was exceptional, the drinks were premium, the service was outstanding, and there was so much choice that every day felt different. Whether you want to relax by the beach, spend the day by one of the pools or enjoy an evening in one of the fantastic restaurants, it really does have everything.

One thing I’d also recommend, if your budget allows, is upgrading to one of the Amber Lagoon Suites. Having direct access to the pool from your terrace takes the experience to another level, and it’s well worth considering.

This latest offer includes:
🌴 7 nights at Regnum Carya
🍽️ Luxury All Inclusive
🚗 Private transfers
🏛️ A private tour to Demre, Kekova and the Lycian rock tombs
✈️ Flights from London Gatwick on 28 October 2026 (other airports available)

From £3,135 per person.

If you’re looking for a luxury holiday where every detail has been thought of, this is definitely one to have on your shortlist.

Send me a message if you’d like the full details, or if you’d like me to price it from your local airport or with different room options.

Can’t decide which Thai island to visit? Why choose just one? 🇹🇭🌴

Island hopping through the Gulf of Thailand is one of the best ways to experience this incredible country, with each island offering something completely different.

✨ Start in Koh Samui for luxury resorts, beach clubs, colourful temples and some well-earned relaxation.

🐠 Hop over to Koh Tao, where crystal-clear waters, vibrant coral reefs and some of the world’s best value diving and snorkelling await.

🌴 Then finish in Koh Phangan, an island that’s so much more than the Full Moon Party, with hidden beaches, boutique hotels, wellness retreats and a much more laid-back side waiting to be discovered.

The best part? Regular ferry connections make it easy to explore all three islands in one unforgettable trip, with Bangkok providing the perfect starting point before heading south. If you’re travelling between April and October, the Gulf of Thailand is also often blessed with more settled weather than Thailand’s Andaman Coast.

If Thailand is on your wish list, I’d love to help create an island-hopping itinerary that’s tailored to you.

🇨🇦 Canada is made for summer adventures… but which national park would be first on your list?

From the iconic turquoise lakes of Banff to the wild coastline of Pacific Rim, Canada is home to some of the most breathtaking scenery on the planet. Whether you’re dreaming of wildlife encounters, epic road trips or mountain hikes, there’s a national park to suit every style of traveller.

Here are five of my favourites:

🏔️ Banff National Park – Home to Lake Louise, Moraine Lake and the spectacular Icefields Parkway.

🛶 Jasper National Park – A quieter Rocky Mountain escape with Maligne Lake, Athabasca Falls and incredible wildlife spotting.

🌿 Gros Morne National Park – A UNESCO World Heritage Site with dramatic fjords, unique geological landscapes and unforgettable hiking.

🌊 Pacific Rim National Park Reserve – Think rugged beaches, ancient rainforest, whale watching and the laid-back charm of Tofino.

🚗 Cape Breton Highlands National Park – Drive the famous Cabot Trail, enjoy panoramic coastal views and keep an eye out for whales, moose and bald eagles.

If Canada has been on your travel wish list, summer is one of the very best times to experience it. Whether you’re planning a self-drive through the Rockies, combining it with the Rocky Mountaineer, or creating a coast-to-coast adventure, I’d love to help you put together an itinerary that’s completely tailored to you.

Which of these would you visit first? 🇨🇦

Destination Spotlight: Mauritius 🌅

Some sunsets don’t need a filter…

From powder-soft beaches and crystal clear lagoons to luxury resorts and incredible food, Mauritius is one of those destinations that manages to be both relaxing and adventurous.

Perfect for honeymoons, milestone celebrations, or if you simply want to switch off somewhere truly special.

Would Mauritius make your travel wishlist?
