Greece

Enter the land of blue domes and dazzling seas, storied ruins and catamaran tours. A summer holiday to Greece is kind of a no-brainer and at the top of most people’s lists, and why wouldn’t it be? Can you imagine strolling through the bright streets of Oia with a delicious gyros in hand while Greek Island Hopping? Or shining a Spotlight on Greece by taking a guided tour of ancient Mycenae and hiking up to the Temple of Apollo on ? Visit the realm of olympic gods and olive oil (equally as divine), on our many trips to Greece.

Top summer holiday styles

Of course, summer holidays are the time for you to really take things into your own hands and design the most perfect getaway ever. That’s why we’ve compiled our most fun and exciting travel styles here!

Active holidays

There’s nothing better than hiking through the Alps or walking along gushing waterfalls to build up that perfect summer sweat and glow. Get active in Scotland and hike to the Loch Ness Monster and bike through the Alps and discover that the hills are alive with the sound of music (and heavy panting). Trust us, the food and the drinks and the views, everything becomes so much more refreshing and worth it when you’ve had to put in the work!

Beach holidays

Summer holidays by the beach are an absolute classic, and for good reason. It’s the best of pure and total relaxation while soaking up that delicious vitamin D, and you can opt to drink cocktails with your friends, or perhaps challenge them to a game of volleyball. You asked for beach holidays and we’ve got ‘em: we’ve got the white beaches of Australia, the golden and lush sands of Egypt, or the colourful coastal towns in Spain, and so much more.

Island hopping

Of course, why experience just one small part of a destination, when you can leap-frog with your friends and hop from one island to the next? That’s right, Island hopping is the hot new thing that you’ll want to get in on this summer. It’s all about beaches and cruises and that stunning blue water everyone craves. Prepare for some magical underwater sights on the Galapagos Island Hopper and make some aquatic connections, or dive headfirst into adventure off a boat on the Turkish coast with watercolour skies around you.
