What if you could spend Christmas somewhere that feels like it was made for Christmas? 🎄❄️

Deep in the Arctic north, forests disappear beneath thick snow, the evenings glow with firelight and the Northern Lights dance overhead.

A Christmas in Lapland is the kind of experience that stays with you long after the decorations have come down.

Imagine meeting Santa in his very own home, heading into the wilderness by husky sled, searching the night sky for the Aurora, and returning to the warmth of your beautiful Arctic accommodation after a day in the snow.

For something truly extraordinary, we can even arrange a night at the famous ICEHOTEL, sleeping amongst incredible ice sculptures and waking up to the magic of the Arctic around you.

And this is where bespoke travel really comes into its own. Your Lapland experience can be created around your family, your interests and the kind of Christmas you want to remember — whether that's thrilling Arctic adventures, magical moments with Santa or simply time together in a beautiful snowy wilderness.

Christmas in Lapland isn't just a holiday. It's a story you'll tell for years.

If you're already thinking about Christmas 2027, now is a good time to start planning.

There’s another side to Belfast — one found in its music, stories, creativity and the people who bring the city to life. 🎶

This Wednesday, Siobhan Byrne is hosting a live conversation exploring Belfast City’s Creative Soul, bringing together some of the people who know this side of the city best.

🥃 And Titanic Distillers will take us into the city's maritime heritage, where the historic Thompson Dock has been given a new lease of life as a premium wh***ey distillery and vibrant grassroots music venue.

From legendary writers and musicians to local neighbourhoods, wh***ey, live music and Belfast's creative community, we'll be uncovering the stories and experiences that give the city its distinctive character.

And, of course, we'll explore why Belfast is proudly recognised as a UNESCO City of Music.

A message from Siobhan as she finishes up a stay in Angola!

I didn’t have much Wi-Fi coverage when I was in Angola, so looking forward to writing up about my travels and sharing my experiences and letting those intrepid travellers know why this is one country in Africa that should definitely be on their list.. and sooner rather than later, whilst it is still a hidden gem.

Winter can take you in two very different directions... ❄️☀️
Perhaps you're dreaming of crisp mountain air, snowy landscapes and a cosy retreat after a day on the slopes.

Or perhaps you'd rather leave winter behind altogether and find yourself somewhere warm, with turquoise water, long lunches and sunshine.

This winter, we're dreaming about both.

⛷️ The Dolomites, Italy
After skiing the slopes of Kronplatz, retreat to the beautifully restored thousand-year-old Castel Badia, where local Ladin traditions, regional cuisine and indulgent wellness await.

☀️ Saint Martin & the Caribbean
Swap snow for sunshine and sail from Saint Martin towards Saint Barts and Anguilla, discovering French cafés, waterfront restaurants and charming island harbours along the way.

🏔️ Jackson Hole, Wyoming
Ski legendary runs, explore Yellowstone by snowmobile or take a sleigh ride through the National Elk Refuge before returning to the warmth of Rusty Parrot Lodge & Spa.

✨ St Moritz, Switzerland
Spend a little longer in the mountains at the elegant Carlton Hotel St. Moritz, with time for the spa, Swiss breakfasts and the spectacular scenery of the Engadin valley.

🌴 The Bahamas
For those who would rather trade winter coats for swimwear, discover the clear turquoise waters, vibrant culture and secluded shores of the Bahamas' Out Islands.

Whatever your idea of the perfect winter escape, we can help create a journey around it — from skiing and spa days to private island adventures and warm-weather retreats.

Yesterday, Adams & Butler had the pleasure of attending a event.
It was wonderful to reconnect with so many familiar faces and to meet with some new suppliers along the way. Northern Ireland is truly a remarkable destination, filled with incredible culture, fascinating history, breathtaking landscapes and unforgettable experiences.
Paired with the Republic of Ireland, it makes for the perfect journey, with so much to discover on both sides of the island.
We hope to have the opportunity to bring more clients to this beautiful part of the world and create some very special Irish memories along the way.

Our Founder & CEO Siobhan Byrne has shared that one of the happiest moments of her life was organising this trip for Michael Jackson and his family when they came to Ireland. Throughout their long stay she would get frequent messages of appreciation. At first they stayed in a property belonging to the Guinness family in Wicklow - Luggala - but when the Ryder Cup came to Ireland so did the international press. We had to move them as they were being hassled. They stayed in an unknown place in the centre of Ireland where they lived happily for many months. Michael’s wish was to buy a property in Ireland at the time. Knowing what happened to him later, we wish he had. Having him as a client put Adams & Butler on the map. Siobhan is forever grateful for the opportunity of being able to provide this quiet heaven for him and the family for that period.

Once you have travelled the voyage never ends. Adams & Butler will open a world of wonders and create magical memories that will stay with you far beyond your travels.
