Check out these amazing photos from a clients recent trip to Egypt. Together we built their perfect itinerary combining time in Cairo, Aswan and Luxor, along with a magical 4 night cruise along the Nile.

Linda’s feedback… “I had high expectations for Egypt, and it surpassed them! Our guides were brilliant, they brought everything to life for us. Egyptian people are so friendly. Highlights for us included breakfast with a view of the pyramids, the Nile cruise, the hot air balloon over the West Bank and the Great Egyptian Museum, which was fantastic. Thank you for organising this trip for us and giving us such a personal service. You listened to what we wanted in a trip and absolutely nailed the brief. We will be booking with you again soon!”

Having travelled to Egypt myself a few years, I love planning adventures there, it’s such a wonderfully unique country and with direct flights to Cairo, its only 5 hours away!

Step inside my Infinite Veranda cabin from a recent cruise on Celebrity Apex.

I was so impressed with the cabin, especially the infinite veranda, a unique concept of the Edge class ships with Celebrity Cruises. The cabin was bright, spacious and beautifully designed, with a floor to ceiling full width window that glides down so you can enjoy the sea breeze and sunset views from the comfort of your sofa… or bed!

A very clever twist on the classic balcony and a brilliant use of space, making your cabin feel so much brighter and bigger.

I am so excited to be sailing aboard Celebrity Apex next week from Lisbon to Southampton, where she will be based for next few months. I have been invited as a guest of Celebrity, a cruise line I love and trust, and which is already a firm favourite with so many of my clients.

Apex will be based in Southampton for Spring & Summer 26 with some incredible itineraries to the Norwegian fjords and some wonderful Med and Canary Island cruises to choose from too. With the convenience of a short flight (or even a drive) to Southampton… its never been easier to enjoy a premium cruise with Celebrity, an ideal choice for adults seeking a contemporary resort-style ship, chic spaces, outstanding dining and a truly elevated experience.

Love Portugal, but need some destination inspiration?

Swap the familiar shores of the Algarve for a slower pace in Alentejo. This is Portugal for foodies and dreamers: rustic farmhouses, long lazy lunches, whitewashed villages, bold local wines and empty beaches.

If you are craving a new part of Portugal to explore, Alentejo is the perfect spot. Combine it with the buzz of Lisbon or the Algarve for a beautiful contrast. You can fly into, or out of, Faro or Lisbon, then weave your way through this unspoilt region for a truly special Portuguese adventure.

Ready to discover a new side to Portugal that feels authentic, peaceful and wonderfully under the radar?

Get in touch and I will create a tailor-made Alentejo escape just for you.
