Explore. Dream. Discover.

Undertaking safaris in four very different environments of South Africa. With varied wildlife and landscapes, it’s a dream trip for safari lovers.

People often talk of the emotional power of seeing creatures like lions and elephants in their natural habitats. And there are few better places to experience it than South Africa. Travelling to four different reserves, we give you the chance to see the Big Five, plus antelopes, hippos, hyena and countless bird species. In between, we’ll cross dramatic mountain landscapes and learn of the area’s ancient civilisations. On our South Africa safari holidays, we’ll stay in wonderfully welcoming lodges, sharing memories of the day’s encounters.

Sampling Lake Bled&s famous delicacy, a deliciously rich cream slice with a crispy crust and thick layers of cream and custard. Best enjoyed al fresco while overlooking the lake itself.

There are few more appealing places to spend a week than the shores of Lake Bled. On this immersive Slovenia tour we begin by exploring this picture-perfect body of water, including famous Bled Island. We head into the scenic countryside to get a taste of Slovene culture. And, proving that Bled is no one-off, we tour stunning Bohinj, the country’s largest glacial lake. In between, there’s time to wander at your own pace, enjoying the gloriously fresh mountain air.

Starting each morning with a stroll along Roses& palm-lined promenade, listening to the sound of the sea.

A regional capital packed with architectural treasures. Pretty, white-washed towns nestled between bright blue sea and lush green mountains. There’s a lot to draw you to Catalonia, and lots to draw you back. On our Catalonia tours we&ll base ourselves in the relaxed beach town of Roses. Enjoying several boat rides, we explore this fiercely proud region of Spain, including the Empuriabrava Canal and beautiful Besalú. And since it’s so close, we hop over the border to France to cruise the impressively engineered Canal du Midi.
