🌸🐬 We’ll be doing a lot more write ups on our trip once we’re home, but here’s just a few snippets from our first couple of days in Sao Miguel in the Azores!

Needless to say we are blown away already! The absolute clearest water for dolphin watching, the most stunning hiking trails and the sweetest pineapple 🍍

And still another week of adventures to go!

September is a really wonderful time to travel, if you're able to. As we move into shoulder season, temperatures get more moderate, the summer crowds fall away and a more serene experience opens up.

Near to home, destinations across Europe all maintain beautiful weather well into September, just with less of the extreme heat at the peak of the day. Perfect for a Greek island odyssey or an extended break enjoying active days and balmy evenings in a Tuscan farmhouse.

Further afield, you'll arrive in the southern hemisphere as spring begins to unfold. Clear skies along with rising temperatures across the southern hemisphere make September a perfect time to visit while tourist numbers are low.

More and more we're seeing AI-generated images of safaris circulating throughout the internet. How well can you discern the authentic from the artificial?

Travel isn't just about getting incredible photos. It's about being there and living it, in all the richness of experience that a photo simply cannot capture or convey. Watching the sun rise over the savannah. That first fleeting glimpse of a lion. The serenity of the plains pierced by the thrill of the hunt.

It sounds cliche, but travel really is about living it. About experiences in all of their sensory vividness that seep into your bones and stay with you. That's something AI will never be able to replace.

ICYMI: VetSetters are heading to Costa Rica! πŸ‡¨πŸ‡·

Later this month, Jess will be on her way to stunning Costa Rica for an exploration of how to make the most of all that this endlessly diverse country has to offer.

We've been chosen as one of the top 50 travel agencies in the UK to be awarded a place on this trip, where we'll be joined by some of Latin America's top local suppliers, where we'll discover unique and authentic ways of creating the perfect Costa Rica itinerary for our clients.

As well as diving deep into what it takes to create the perfect Costa Rica itinerary, this trip will see her getting stuck in to the heart of what makes Costa Rica so special - it's nature and wildlife. πŸ¦₯πŸ¦œπŸ¦‹

If Costa Rica's on your bucket list, now's the time to let us know πŸ™Œ

Experience Costa Rica with us πŸ‡¨πŸ‡·

Costa Rica is one of (if not THE) most popular destinations that we're being asked for at the moment, with loads of you interested in exploring its rugged nature and spectacularly rich wildlife πŸ¦₯πŸ¦œπŸ¦‹πŸŒ³

And Jess is officially heading there! At the end of September, she'll be jetting off to spend a week immersing herself fully into this amazing country, with a combination of learning & education from local guides and experts, as well as getting out into the wild herself! πŸ€“πŸ₯Ύ

She'll be heading out on the 21st September, so please do get in touch before then with anything you'd like her to find out. And of course, keep your eyes peeled for her updates from the jungle!

You may well know already that we're big fans of travelling sustainably, but far too often the whole 'sustainable travel' space focuses far too much on minimising harm and not enough on making real, tangible positive impacts.

We're talking stuff that - rather than merely the absence of something bad - introduces something good to parts of the world that need it. At whatever scale - whether supporting research efforts that make a population-wide impact or caring for a handful of animals in need - doing work that goes beyond using reusable water bottles (although definitely still do this!) is our jam.

So, join us in going Beyond Neutral.

Our current Positive Impact trips include:

πŸ… Supporting scientific research on India's wildlife and nature
🦏 Supporting the care of the world's last 2 remaining Northern White Rhino in Kenya
πŸ‡²πŸ‡Ώ Save pangolins in Africa's "last wilderness"
πŸ‡ΉπŸ‡Ώ Do a "conservation safari" in Tanzania - the perfect blend of conservation science, community impact and safari thrills!

We're constantly working with our local contacts and on-the-ground specialists to develop unique experiences that blend the fun of travel with making a real POSITIVE difference - so stay posted for more cool stuff like this coming soon! πŸ‘€

Namibia is a place of enormous diversity: spectacular, wild landscapes and unique wildlife. Great hills of striking orange sand give way to Atlantic coastal vibes, which itself melds gently through earthy plains into a verdant Savannah...

A trip to Namibia really does feel like multiple mini-holidays in one go!

If you haven't seen it - James visited Namibia back in May. Click the link below to view the classic tour-of-Namibia itinerary that he did:

πŸ””πŸŽ„ Last minute Lapland availability for this Christmas!

We have a lovely family booked to go on a Santas Lapland holiday this year, but sadly due to family circumstances they are unable to travel πŸ˜ͺ

So we are looking to see if any other family might want to take over this booking so that our lovely family don’t lose their deposit and can look to go in 2027 instead πŸ’•

The details are:
- Return flights from Newcastle
- 28th Nov - 1st Dec
- 3 night Santas Lapland package for 2 adults and 2 children
- Staying in an interconnecting superior family suite (with private sauna!) in the 4* Santa’s Riekonlinna Hotel on half board
- A full day of Christmas activities included, with reindeer sleigh rides, husky sledding and of course meeting Santa himself!

Total cost is £5797 and would need to be paid in full to secure the place ☺️

This is a fabulous trip and would also be really helping another vet family out - Christmas magic for you and for them βœ¨πŸŽ„πŸŽ…

So if you’ve been thinking about a Lapland trip this year, this is your sign to go for it!
