Holidays far and wide by Kelly Dadd

13/09/2024

People would always say to me. Do you get envious when pricing up holidays for your clients? In the past I didn’t. More recently I see the holidays and dream it was me going on them.
Maybe, it’s the holidays I look at that are different and more exciting.

I thought I’d start sharing the holiday stuff a bit more .
Here is somewhere I visited a long time ago when I was at college. Probably the trio that inspired me to travel… it definitely made an impact.

I can offer all types of holidays now. From a sunshine Mediterranean break to round the world cruise or a trip to India with temples and boat cruise of a trip to the Arctic circle.

😊Recommendations are so important and II really appreciate you spreading the word. Over the next few months I really hope to grow my travel business.

Here is a trio to Turkey

🧡 Good Morning folks 🧡 Hope you’ve had a lovely weekend! 🍊 Here’s a fab deal to Benidorm.🍊

I can offer holidays to all destinations for couples, families , solos, groups.

It’s important for me to remember my roots, I began selling holidays to Benidorm back in the 90’s and have seen the destination develop.

My first holiday abroad was here too. It’s only a couple of hours away. Personally I love the old town.

🏖️ Five minutes from Poniente Beach and close to the old town, Hotel Mercure Benidorm puts you right in the thick of things 🇪🇸

💦 Days typically begin by the pool around here, which you’ll find nestled among greenery with plenty of sun loungers nearby. There’s also a poolside snack bar that does a fine line in cocktails and lighter bites for when you’re a bit peckish 🍸🍹 You can also work up a sweat at the air-conditioned gym and regular yoga sessions take place throughout the day to help you stay feeling refreshed 🏋🏼‍♂️🧘🏽

🍽️ Breakfast and dinner, meanwhile, are sorted thanks to the buffet restaurant that serves up a wide array of international dishes 🥘🥙

👣 Fancy feeling sand beneath your feet? Bring your inflatables as there are three sandy beaches within walking distance 🏝️ And if a night to remember is what you crave, the Old Town – with its myriad of traditional tapas bars and local restaurants – is just a 15-minute stroll from the hotel 🤩

🚴Save £100 pp on a gentle cycling holiday this summer 🚴‍♀️

Escape to the wine regions of Europe on a sunny cycling adventure with Cycling for Softies. Their gentle cycling holidays are the perfect way to explore lush countryside and rugged coasts. Luggage is transferred for you and there are e-bikes for those worried about rusty cycling skills. So sit back and enjoy the ride: warm sunsets with a drink on the terrace are just around the corner. We love the look of their cycling holidays in France:

🏰The Loire Valley is a perfect place for a cycling holiday with its riverside routes littered with stunning Chateaux. Or how about starry, starry nights in Provence cycling through glorious countryside breathing in the scent of lavender fields.

🍷Bordeaux is one of Europe's most cycle-friendly cities full of impressive architecture, historical landmarks and wine bars. Don't miss the modern masterpiece, the Cité du Vin museum, with its aluminium exteriors that mirror a swirling wine glass.
France in general! And, of course you can cycle between some of the best vineyards in France, sampling wines along the way.

🥂If you prefer Champagne, the region is a delight to tour with its grand cathedral cities and charming canal-side towns, nestled between vineyards producing some of the most famous wine in France. Epernay, Reims, and Châlons-en-Champagne are the most lively towns in the region, so a visit is made to all of them on Cycling for Softies' cycling holidays in Champagne, via a network of country roads and cycle paths.

💥Offer applies to holidays booked by 31 May and for tours returning by 31 August 2024.
