Thinking of a family ski escape this February half term? Now is the perfect time to lock in the best chalets and room options while availability is still strong.
If you are looking for a resort that works brilliantly for everyone, I highly recommend Alpe d’Huez: fantastic ski schools and gentle slopes for children, lovely cruisy reds for confident skiers, plus the legendary La Sarenne and the Tunnel run for any daredevil dads (or mums!) in the family. Off the slopes, you will find a friendly atmosphere with cosy bars and cafés that are ideal for relaxed après-ski hot chocolates or a well-earned vin chaud.
Choosing a catered chalet means you can truly switch off: no supermarket runs, no hunting for a table at busy restaurants, just relaxed family time while someone else takes care of dinner.
Chalet Leman is a brilliant option for February half term: a bright, stylish chalet apartment sleeping up to 10 adults and 2 children, with elegant en-suite bedrooms, a sociable open-plan living area and gorgeous views. It is only 100m from the piste and lifts, and guests can enjoy access to a shared spa with hot tub, sauna and hammam. Cafes, bars and shops are just a short stroll away, so you really have everything on your doorstep.
If you would like to find out more about February, or any other dates and prices for Chalet Leman or similar catered chalets in Alpe d’Huez, just get in touch and I will do the rest.

Cruising is one of my favourite ways to travel, and I’m very lucky that my job lets me experience it first-hand so I can share that knowledge with you. ⚓✨
I’ve sailed with Virgin Voyages, soaking up their stylish, adults-only vibe and incredible dining. I’ve cruised with Celebrity Cruises, waking up to new horizons, beautiful destinations and that touch of modern luxury. And this June I’ll be setting sail with Royal Caribbean, exploring their amazing entertainment and family-friendly fun so I can bring even more first-hand insight back to you.
Because I’ve actually been on board these ships, I can talk you through the real experience:
What it feels like to be on each cruise line
How cabins compare and which might suit you best
Tips on dining, drinks packages and speciality restaurants
The best way to tailor your itinerary for couples, families, solo travellers or groups
I know planning a cruise can feel overwhelming with so many ships, routes and cabin types to choose from. That is exactly where I come in. I take the time to understand what you want from your holiday, then match you with the right cruise line, ship, sailing dates and itinerary to suit your style and budget.
If you’re curious about trying a cruise for the first time, or you’re a seasoned cruiser ready for something new, I’d love to help.
Send me a message to book a no-obligation cruise consultation and let’s start planning your perfect voyage together. 🌊

It has been a little quiet on here lately, so I wanted to explain why and say thank you for bearing with me.

As you may know I arrived back from my own holiday in Thailand after being stuck for 5 extra days myself. While I was away, my amazing team were looking after my clients and keeping everything moving. Since I’ve returned, it has been straight back into it: a whirlwind of rebooking and rerouting for clients who needed to get both in and out of the UAE and Qatar for important work trips and Holiday bookings where i've needed to find alternative routes for clients to transit.

It has been intense, but I've had lots of successful outcomes:
• alternative routes found.
• holidays saved.
• work trips still going ahead for my clients in the Oil and Gas sector.
• and, most importantly, happy and relieved clients who are still able to travel.

Real travel is not always straightforward, and when things go wrong it really matters to have someone in your corner. One of my lovely clients sent this feedback after I managed to save their family holiday:

“Lisa helped us when our agent couldn’t. Service is first class, always has been. Thank you Lisa for saving our family holiday. x”

Feedback like this truly means the world and is exactly why I do what I do.

Thank you for your patience while I’ve been working behind the scenes (and huge thanks to my team for their support too). I am now catching up with messages and enquiries, so if you need help with any upcoming travel, or you are worried about an existing booking, please do get in touch and I will look after you.

Well that was a holiday I don’t think we’ll ever forget. We had an amazing time in Thailand staying in Ao Nang Beach, Elephant Hills and then followed by Khao Lak.
During our time here we took the long tail boat to Hong Island, the speedboat the Similan Islands where we visited 2 islands and spent time snorkelling and visited Coconut and White Sands beaches. The boys watched the Thai boxing and met the fighters at the end and we took part in a private Thai cookery course where we made dinner after going to the local markets to select our ingredients. The whole trip was fantastic and even met up with family and one of our friends whilst in Khao Lak. The downside was that our flights were cancelled the night before we were due to return home due to the Middle East situation so it meant 3 more hotels and a return flight via Bangkok and Dubai but we eventually arrived home Sat morning. We were lucky, I had head office constantly checking alternatives for us and we were able to return when we did. If you book a TC package then you have a lot more cover and help available to you when events like this happen and even though it was an exhausting 48 hours to get back we are all home safe and sound and that’s the main thing.

This escorted journey takes you from the energy of Cape Town to the open plains of the Eastern Cape, blending iconic landscapes with everyday South African life. Along the way, you’ll travel the Garden Route, sip world-class wines in Stellenbosch, spot wildlife on safari, and spend time in places where history, nature, and modern South Africa meet.
The trip begins in Cape Town, where your time is split between the city’s natural setting and its history. A cable car ride up Table Mountain gives clear views across the coastline and city bowl, while visits to places such as Bo-Kaap and the V&A Waterfront show different sides of modern Cape Town, from everyday neighbourhood life to its working harbour and restaurant scene.

From here, the journey continues into the Cape Winelands, travelling through Stellenbosch and Franschhoek. This is slower-paced and more rural, with time set aside for wine tasting and lunch at local estates known for straightforward, well-executed food. Walking through these towns adds a sense of place, with Cape Dutch architecture and mountain backdrops shaping the experience.

The final destination is the Eastern Cape, where the focus turns to safari. Game drives in a private reserve are led by experienced rangers who track animals across open terrain, often spotting elephants, giraffe, buffalo, and more. Early starts and late-afternoon drives make the most of wildlife movement, with time back at the lodge to reflect on what you’ve seen.

Throughout the tour, accommodation is carefully chosen for comfort and location. Stays include well-positioned hotels in the cities and safari lodges surrounded by nature. Rooms are spacious with en-suite bathrooms, quality furnishings, and often private outdoor space such as a balcony or terrace. Facilities like swimming pools, on-site restaurants, and relaxed lounge areas make each stay feel settled and practical.

Cape Town | Stellenbosch & Franschhoek | Garden Route | Eastern Cape Safari Reserve

From GBP 4499.00 per person.

What’s included:

• 15 nights travelling South Africa

• Double/Twin rooms; daily breakfast, 5 lunches and 4 dinners throughout
