TOURING - COMPLETE

escorted holidays Collection

2019

Distinctive

holidays from an

airport near you!

2019 sees our nineteenth anniversary. We have always tried to provide really interesting holidays from regional airports at value for money

prices to places other tour operators do not go. Of course, that doesn’t mean that we ignore great cities, landmarks and heritage sites -

we combine them with other elements which really reveal the true character and beauty of the area. So, for example, when we take our

customers to the Costa Blanca we take them to the magnifi cent Muslim fortress of Guadalest; off the beaten track in the Pyrenees you’ll see

the enormous ‘ghost’ train station in Canfranc and the wonderful castle in Loarre; in Western Andalucia you can enjoy the Gypsy pilgrimage

town of El Rocio and the martian landscape of the Rio Tinto Mines; in Lithuania we’ll take you to the unique landscape of the Curonian Spit;

while on the heel of Italy you can marvel at the conical trulli houses of Alberobello and the primitive ‘sassi’ stone houses in Matera. As well

as imaginative itineraries, here are some of the benefi ts of booking a Preferred Travel Services holiday -

• Direct fl ights from airports right across the UK, in most cases without regional fl ight supplements

• Half-board included nearly everywhere

• One piece of checked baggage per person always included (minimum 20kgs)

• A rich variety of single-centre and multi-centre holidays, mountains and coast, lakes and cities, culture and history

• All our holidays are ATOL protected by the Civil Aviation Authority

Our multi-centre touring holidays are fully escorted by our knowledgeable Tour Directors who live and work in the countries visited and

are, we believe, the best in the business. On our single centre holidays you will be well cared for by equally knowledgeable local resort

representatives. We hope you enjoy browsing through our brochure and are sure you will fi nd something that will appeal to you. If you do –

give us a call on 0116 279 3929 – this will also be a different experience. No hanging around listening to a series of options, no ‘please wait

for the next available operator’ – a real person will answer you straight away! Once you have made your booking you will have peace of mind

in knowing that your money is safe as all our holidays are ATOL protected by the Civil Aviation Authority.

We also offer walking holidays in Europe, many of which operate in tandem with itineraries in this brochure. If you would like details of these

please call us on 0116 279 3929 or visit www.preferredts.com

We have negotiated no single supplements on selected dates in Catalonia, Cyprus, Portugal, Crete, Greece, and on the Costa Blanca. But make your

booking quickly as availability is limited and spaces always sell out very fast.

we are very proud of the level of repeat custom we enjoy and are extremely grateful for that loyalty. here are some comments from

customers who have travelled with us recently.

My wife and I have just returned from another splendidly organised

excursion by Preferred Travel. This is a word of thanks to all those involved

in the logistical organisation of our travel from, and the return to, Aberdeen;

the on time pickups to and from the Hotel Parigi; and the extremely

interesting and well-organised excursions in comfortable coaches driven

by excellent drivers. Special mention must be made of Valentina the very

approachable, articulate and knowledgeable guide.

Mr & Mrs B, Aberdeen (Bordighera –the Italian riviera & Monte Carlo)

Let me say that last week’s holiday in Bucharest and Transylvania was very

enjoyable. I learned a lot, too, and the tour guide was up there with the

best. I hope to travel with you again before too long.

Mrs s, Bromsgrove (Bucharest & Transylvania)

Maria TD is exceptional. Nothing is too much trouble. Happy, generous

with her time and interested in everyone. We shall come back to Catalonia

again for sure.

Mr & Mrs s, nottingham (Carcassonne, Cathar Country & Catalonia)

An excellent balance of planned visits and free time to explore.

Mr & Mrs D, Aberdeen (Best of the Baltics)

As usual very well organized and very knowledgeable tour guide.

Mr & Mrs w, Durham (eastern Andalucia)

Dimitra is the best travel guide I have ever had, and I have been travelling

to Greece since the 1970’s. She has made the history of Crete come alive

with her specialist knowledge and is such a lovely, friendly person. Every

tour of Crete should have Dimitra as their guide! Many, many thanks for her

wonderful company.

Mrs B, exeter (A week in Crete)

The hotels and transport were good, and our local guide Valentina was

excellent. We loved the rail and boat rides and that we had plenty of time

to explore all the different beautiful places we visited. Thank you again for

a super holiday. We hope to travel with you again soon.

Mr & Mrs M, scarborough (Cinque Terre, Portofino & the Italian Lakes)

Cyprus - Aphrodite’s Ancient Isle

An ancient land of mystery, legend, beauty, and love: especially in and around Paphos, your holiday base. On the west coast

of the Akamas Peninsula, Paphos was the island’s capital for 600 years and its visible archaeological legacy has led to the

whole town being placed on UNESCO’s World Heritage List. Effectively parts of the town serve as an open-air museum, with

remarkable mosaics, vaults and caves, the Pillar of St. Paul, the ancient theatre, the Tombs of the Kings and a Roman Agora

are all amongst the sights to see. The area is steeped in Greek myth and legend. The goddess Aphrodite rose from the sea

foam near Paphos and took pity on Pygmalion by bringing to life his statue of the beautiful Galatea – their son was Paphos.

• 7 nights hb in Paphos • Paphos orientation walk • Excursion to Nicosia

PROGRAMME

Day One: Flight to Paphos, transfer to your hotel in Kato Paphos (20

minutes away) where seven nights half board accommodation has

been reserved for you.

Cyprus has a long and varied history. At the crossroads of three

continents, Cyprus was a stopping off point for Crusaders and has been

ruled by the Greeks, Romans, Franks, Venetians, Turks and British.

Day Two: Paphos orientation walk: your morning walk starts and

finishes at the hotel, and will give you your bearings not only in the

geography of Paphos, but also its history. You will walk along the sea

front, and pass the ruins of an early Christian basilica en route to the

harbour. Here you will be able to visit the archaeological area (entrance

fee included) with its Roman mosaics. You return to the hotel via the

lighthouse and the Christian catacomb of Solomoni.

Days Three to Seven: In resort in Paphos, with free time to explore

the town and its historic sites and also time to relax and enjoy the hotel’s

facilities. One day is dedicated to the included excursion to Nicosia, the

full day giving you a real taste of this fascinating and charming city.

In the heart of Nicosia is the old city surrounded by walls dating back

to the 16th century. Enclosed in this are countless museums, churches,

monuments, sites of historic interest, narrow streets overlooked by

the balconies of old houses and squares surrounded by cafes, shops

and tavernas. The included tour of the city will take you along the

dividing Green Line and allow you to see the major sights including

the Famagusta Gate and the Archbishop’s Palace. Also whilst in Nicosia

there will be visits to St. John’s Cathedral and the Byzantine Museum,

and time in the picturesque old quarter and shopping centre of Laiki

Yitonia.

There may be other excursions available, into the Troodos Mountains

and to the Bath of Aphrodite (a grotto pool where the goddess is said to

have bathed before her marriage).

Dancing and Bowls: together with the sister hotels nearby, the hotel has

dance leaders and bowling coordinators who will assist with tuition and,

on request, organise events for guests of all abilities. Lawn Bowls rinks

(there may be 20 rinks, indoor and outdoor, all on synthetic surfaces).

A charge (currently 5 euros) is made per session (includes equipment).

Day Eight: Free time until your transfer to the airport for your return

flight.

YOUR HOTEL

PIONEER BEACH HOTEL HHHH Paphos (seven nights)

The Pioneer Beach is an impressive 4-star hotel with beautifully appointed

bedrooms, public areas, international buffet style restaurant and colourful

Tenerife - Island of Contrasts

There are a host of reasons for visiting Tenerife – the largest of the Canaries, which the classicists rightly called ‘the Fortunate

Isles’. Fortunate, too, in having such a wonderful winter and spring climate for visitors from the freezing north! An island of

contrasts – the miles of sun-drenched coastline surround Spain’s highest mountain (over 12000 ft), Mount Teide. Accessible

by cable car and often snow-capped, the desolate volcanic slopes within Teide’s National Park are a world away from the

tropical vegetation of the green Orotava valley, and the botanical gardens below. You stay in the north part of the island where

the traditional villages and the University town of La Laguna have a totally different feel to the commercial concreted resorts

of the south – and the lush, tropical landscape with banana plantations also contrasts with the arid terrain of the south.

• 7 nights hb on Tenerife • Excursions to La Laguna, the Botanic Garden and Orotava Valley, and Mount Teide

PROGRAMME

Day One: Flight to Tenerife, transfer to your hotel (about one hour

away) for seven nights half board accommodation.

Your holiday base is close to Puerto de la Cruz (with its agreeable

and historical maritime area) and to the verdant Orotava valley, whose

eponymous town boasts the attractive mansions of families who made

their fortune trading with the New World – and then spent fortunes

building fine houses and churches in their home town to show how

successful they were!

Tenerife still has undiscovered corners, like Garachico, out to the west.

Garachico is a typical Canarian village, whose harbour was filled in by

a lava flow in the 18th century – since when, as you stroll the shady

square, you get the impression that, frankly, not a lot has changed! Also

within easy reach is Santa Cruz de Tenerife, with Calatrava’s futuristic

new ship-shaped auditorium and a pleasant old quarter: beyond the

town lie the spectacular Anaga mountains.

Days Two to Seven: In resort with three included excursions.

Mount Teide: you will have a scenic drive on Mount Teide, with a stop

to explore the volcanic landscape of the Ucanca plain, and, subject to

ticket availability, the chance to take the cable car up the mountain

(cost of cable car approx. 22E).

La Laguna: an included excursion will take you to San Cristobal de la

Laguna (to give it its full name). The fine Canarian Mansions scattered

through the town offer the visitor their bright facades and impressive

woodwork, which conceal cool patios and shady gardens. One of them

houses the “Museum of the History of Tenerife” – well worth a look.

This university town has been a UNESCO World Heritage site since

1999; its layout, that of the first non-fortified Spanish colonial town,

served as a model for many towns in the Americas.

The Botanic Garden, with Puerto de la Cruz and La Orotava and

its valley. You will see, with a knowledgeable guide, the “Jardin de

Aclimatisación” of La Orotava – the Botanic Garden founded by Royal

Decree in 1788 to house the plants being brought from the New World

by the ‘Discoverers’ who (Columbus included) used Tenerife as a

jumping-off point for their epic voyages. The garden’s role was as a

trial ground for plants and trees that would be of important medical or

economic benefit to Spain as a whole. Designed to a geometric plan, it

has a particularly impressive collection of trees, including date palms

and fig trees, as well as an enormous oriental plane tree (platanus

orientalis), at the base of which the garden’s founder planted a box

of coins and documents. There are also good collections of agave,

hibiscus, orchids, poinsettia and jacaranda. This day will also include a

visit to Orotava town and an orientation of Puerto de la Cruz.

A further, optional excursion will also be available to Santa Cruz de

Tenerife.

BLUE SEA COSTA JARDIN & SPA HHHH,

Puerto de la Cruz, Tenerife (seven nights)

The hotel stands on the edge of Puerto de la Cruz, a 25 minute walk to

There are views to Mount Teide, the sea, and the Orotava valley from the

hotel’s extensive tropical gardens (1500sqm). Rooms have bath/shower,

wc, hairdryer, satellite tv, safety deposit box (charge applies), minibar, and

balcony or terrace. There is an outdoor pool, spa (charges apply), poolside

Teide are available at a supplement.

The Costa Blanca, Valencia & Guadalest

The popular Costa Blanca resort of Calpe has a bit of everything – beautiful beaches, a lively and picturesque old town,

stunning scenery in the shape of the immense Rock of Ifach and varied wildlife, both on the Rock and on the saltpans.

Inland from Calpe, the mountainous countryside is spectacular and gentle at the same time and contains the spectacular,

historic village of Guadalest and the mediaeval city of Alcoy. Thriving Valencia is Spain’s third city, behind Madrid and

Barcelona, but is at least their equal in terms of history and cultural diversity.

• 7 nights hb Calpe • Excursion to Valencia • Excursion to Guadalest and Alcoy • Excursion to Denia • One

free spa circuit in the hotel

PROGRAMME

Day One: Flight to Alicante, transfer to your hotel (one hour depending

on traffic) for seven nights half board accommodation.

DAYS TWO TO SEVEN: In Calpe. Your hotel is situated in the Levante

Beach area from where it is a pleasant stroll along the beach and

promenade to the Rock of Ifach, the working harbour or a longer walk

up to the picturesque old quarter. The Rock of Ifach rises Gibraltar-like

1,100ft from the sea and is a haven for wildlife. A marked trail through

and around the Rock will take about 2 ½ hours to complete. As well as

the old quarter you should visit the Roman Queen’s Baths and the old

walls built to protect Calpe from pirates.

There are three included excursions during your stay in Calpe.

Serra Aitana Hills, Guadalest and Alcoy. This drive is as scenic as you

will find anywhere in Spain. You pass through lemon groves and vast

swathes of fine netting which cover the hillsides, underneath which are

‘nispero’ trees whose sweet fruit is protected from the winter hailstorms

in the mountains. The mountains themselves are a haven for wildlife

including wild cats and genets, badgers and weasels and even golden

eagles. Guadalest, an ancient Moorish stronghold, is in a spectacular

setting with fantastic views from the remains of the Muslim fortress.

Further along the valley is the town of Alcoy where five rivers meet.

Around the Plaza de Espana is the medieval quarter but you’ll also find a

modernist and industrial heritage in the town. 95 miles today.

Denia. On this pleasant half-day trip to Denia you can stroll down the

tree-lined Avenida del Marques de Campo, walk up to the castle or

down to the harbour and snack on some famous Denia gambas.

DAY EIGHT: Free time until departure for the airport and your flight home.

YOUR HOTEL

DIAMANTE BEACH HOTEL HHHH, Calpe (seven nights)

The hotel is located just a few metres from the Levante Beach promenade.

The hotel’s modern style is characterised by its spectacular glass façade.

Rooms are equipped with a full bathroom with hairdryer, air-conditioning,

safety deposit box, mini-bar, telephone, satellite tv, wifi and internet

connection, and large balcony. There are three outdoor pools, cafeteria,

piano bar, and the Mediterranean cuisine buffet restaurant with “Show

Cooking”. The spa centre offers a large heated pool with a vast range of

spa amenities. Our guests receive one free circuit of the spa consisting of

16 elements including hydromassage, turkish bath, ice fountain, thermal

bath, jacuzzi, sauna and 5 different sorts of shower. (www.diamantebeach.

com)



Valencia. 75 motorway miles from Calpe is the historic, but also

trendy city of Valencia. Valencia’s historic buildings cluster around the

14th-century cathedral in the Plaza de la Reina. Your search for the Holy

Grail is over - the gold chalice is in the cathedral museum! A short walk

away is the so-called ‘real’ Valencia in the Barrio del Carmen where

you’ll find a host of cafes, bars and restaurants in the captivating narrow

streets. The Central Market, one of the oldest food markets in Europe,

houses a thousand stalls under its decorated iron and glass dome. Food

is very important in Valencia, the home of paella, and you should find

time to call in at one of the ‘horchaterias’ and sip on a nutty ‘milkshake’.

Andalucia’s Eastern Coast, Granada & Almeria

Granada was the last city to be re-conquered by the Catholic Kings in 1492 and Spain’s Moorish legacy is nowhere more

evident than in Granada and its province. On this holiday, not only will you visit the Alhambra complex in Granada, but also

the city of Almeria. Your base is the coastal city of Almunecar. This is a city whose Phoenician, Roman and Moorish past is

still much in evidence. The wonderful sub-tropical climate will help you enjoy the city’s rich artistic and cultural heritage

as well as the pretty historic centre. In and around Almunecar the sierras plunge spectacularly into the sea and you will

find no less than 25 beaches and coves within the boundary of the municipality.

• 7 nights hb in Almunecar • Visit to Granada and the Alhambra • Tour along the Costa Tropical to Almeria

• 1 entrance free of charge to the hotel’s spa centre

PROGRAMME

Day One: Flight to Malaga and transfer to your hotel (55 miles) in Almunecar

on the beach east of the city for seven nights half board accommodation.

Days Two to Seven: During your stay there are two included full day

excursions. The first is to the wonderful city of Granada just 45 miles

away. There is surely no more spectacular setting than Granada whose

extraordinary Alhambra complex is dominated by the snow-capped peaks

of the Sierra Nevada. A local guide will ensure you make the most of your

visit of the Alhambra and the Generalife Gardens. (Please note that, due to

restrictions on group visits, the Nasrid Palaces part of the complex may not

be included in the visit.) As well as visiting the complex, you will also have

plenty of time to see some of the city’s other attractions such as the cathedral

and the old Moorish quarter of Albaicin, now a UNESCO World Heritage Site

together with the Alhambra and the Generalife. The second excursion is a

trip along the east coast to see the ancient city of Almeria and (80 miles away

by motorway). Almeria also has Phoenician and Roman origins and one of

the greatest citadels ever built by the Moors as well as an unusual fortified

cathedral constructed as defence against pirate attacks. The whitewashed

walls of the old town have the unmistakable Al-Andalus atmosphere.

The rest of your time is free to enjoy Almunecar. You can visit the Arab

fortress built on top of a Roman castle or stroll through the delightful

botanical gardens of Majuelo Park where there is a huge collection of

tropical and subtropical plants, bushes and trees as well as the remains

of the Roman fish-salting pits. Other attractions include the exotic bird

park and the network of defensive towers built by the Moors and later

strengthened in the 18th century as defence against British raids. Or just

stroll through the busy commercial district in the old centre where you can

admire the city’s monuments – look out for the plaque dedicated to Laurie

Lee who spent time here during and after the Civil War. There will also

be the chance to join an optional excursion to Nerja with its magnificent

Balcon de Europa and its nearby famous caves - an enormous cavern

reminiscent of an underground cathedral featuring stalactites, stalagmites

and wonderful rock formations and the white-painted, hill-top village of

Frigiliana.

Day Eight: Free time until your transfer to the airport and your return flight.

YOUR HOTEL

HOTEL BAHIA TROPICAL HHHH, Taramay, Almunecar (seven nights)

The hotel is situated on the small Pozuelo beach in Taramay on the eastern

satellite tv, safe (chargeable) and hairdryer - most have balcony or

terrace. The restaurant serves buffet style food and there is a bar with

entertainment on some nights. The hotel has a large outdoor pool and a

A Week on the Algarve

A relaxing week in an excellent hotel amid the beauty of the Algarve is the recipe for this Portuguese holiday. You will

discover not just the spectacular coastline, but also the unspoilt countryside of the hinterland, with historic sites such as

Silves, the former Moorish capital of the Algarve, with its Roman Bridge and 16th century church. Your resort, Armação

de Pêra, boasts one of the most beautiful beaches in the Algarve, with pretty coves and a panorama of brightly coloured

fishing boats. Your base is the 4-star Holiday Inn (formerly Hotel Garbe), right on the beach.

The second excursion takes you inland, into the rolling countryside,

where you will also stop in one of the Algarve’s most picturesque

villages, Alte, and in the former Moorish stronghold of Silves. Alte

stands at the foot of the Serra do Calderao, with white houses

clustered in the narrow streets around the church. There are natural

springs, too, with a series of little waterfalls, grassy banks, and a

much-painted bridge over the stream. Silves is bigger than Alte, but

no less pretty, beautifully set under its well-preserved Moorish castle

and its cathedral, and on the Arade River.

Mallorca’s North East Coast

Majorca – Mallorca, Majorca – Mallorca, which is it? In English, it has a j and conjures images of tourist hordes sizzling

in the hot sun. Whereas the Spanish spelling and much more refined pronunciation of Mallorca reflect the beautiful island

much loved by the likes of Chopin, Grace Kelly, Princess Diana, and the Spanish Royal Family. The area around the resort

of Cala Ratjada in the northeast of the island falls very much into the latter category. You won’t find high-rise hotel blocks

here, but golden beaches, azure seas, quiet coves and the tranquil pine forest.

• 7 nights hb in the Bella Playa Hotel in Cala Ratjada • Walking tour of Sa Torre Cega • Excursion to Palma

• Excursion to the Drach Caves

PROGRAMME

Day One: Flight to Palma. On arrival, you will be met at the airport and

transferred to your hotel, the Bella Playa, for seven nights half-board

accommodation. Transfer time one hour.

Cala Ratjada is an old fishing port on the north-east coast of the island

which has developed into a pleasant resort with a busy harbour, craggy

coves and pretty beaches. As well as a host of shops, cafes, bars and

restaurants, Cala Ratjada has attractive natural areas right on its

doorstep. A variety of bird species thrives in the protected area of Cala

Agulla beach close to your hotel. While a pleasant walk through the

pine forest will take you to the lighthouse at Capdepera from where, on

a clear day, you can see across to the neighbouring island of Menorca.

Days two to Seven: In Cala Ratjada with three included activities

during your stay.

Walking Tour of Sa Torre Cega: A twenty-minute walk from your

hotel is Sa Torre Cega, an early 20th-century villa built for the March

banking family. In an ideal spot overlooking the tiny bay of Cala Gat,

the gardens at Sa Torre Cega were landscaped by Russell Page, the

English designer whose clients included the Duke of Windsor, King

Leopold of Belgium, and the Frick Art Collection in New York. And art

is an integral feature of the Sa Torre Cega gardens where you will

see forty sculptures of the March collection. The gardens were closed

after being severely damaged in a storm in 2001, and, after extensive

restoration, were reopened by King Juan Carlos in 2015.

Palma: On a day trip to Palma fifty miles away, you’ll have plenty of

time to explore the delights of the island’s capital. A short orientation

tour on arrival will show you where things are, after which you can

choose how you will spend your free time. Many will make a beeline

for the ultra-impressive Gothic Cathedral. Dating from the 13th

century, the building has been modified through the ages right up to

the changes made in the early 1900’s by Antoni Gaudi. Or you could

make your way to the Palau March Museum which houses the rest of

the March sculpture collection including works by Rodin, Henry Moore

and Barbara Hepworth. Don’t forget to leave time for a delicious tapas

lunch in the narrow streets of the old centre.

Drach Caves: A short 18-mile trip to the famous caves where you

have a tour of the deep caves including the blue waters of the Baths

of Diana, incredible stalactites and stalagmites, and a boat trip and

classical concert on one the world’s largest underground lakes.

In your spare time you can enjoy the facilities of the hotel, or maybe

hire a bike and visit the market town of Arta.

Day Eight: Free time until your departure transfer to the airport for

your flight home.

visits to the timeless old UNESCO city of Cordoba, with its Mezquita church, and to Picasso’s home city of Malaga. All these

remarkable sights are bathed in the year-round warmth of the Andalucian sunshine!

• 7 nights hb in Mijas • Excursion to Cordoba with guided tour of the Mezquita • Circular Andalucian tour

featuring some of the ‘White Villages’ • Orientation walk in Mijas • Visit to Malaga with orientation drive

and walking tour through the historic centre

PROGRAMME

Day One: Direct flight to Malaga, transfer (approx. 30 minutes) to your

hotel in Mijas for seven nights half board accommodation.

Although only a few kilometres from the hustle and bustle of the

seaside towns of the Costa del Sol, Mijas Pueblo has managed to

retain a good deal of its Andalucian character. From the slopes of its

Sierra, pretty white-painted Mijas looks down imperiously over the

resorts of Fuengirola and Benalmadena and, up in the hills, on a clear

day you can see as far as Gibraltar and Africa! The old village plazas

are difficult to resist – whether it’s a drink with some tapas, browsing

artists’ studios and craft shops or visiting one of the museums. The

Local History Museum is well worth a visit, as is the Contemporary Arts

Centre which has works by Picasso, Dali and Miro.

Days Two to SEVEN: In Mijas with a short, guided orientation walk

and three included excursions.

Cordoba: Just over two hours away is Cordoba, one of the not-to-bemissed

sights of Andalucia. There will be a walking tour of the historic

city where, 1000 years ago, Jews, Arabs and Christians lived side by

side in harmony. You will see a statue of Maimonides, the famous

Jewish philosopher and the author of Mishneh Torah. Above all, though,

you will visit the world-famous Mezquita (entrance fee included) with

an expert guide The church/mosque was founded in 785 by Abd ar-

Rahman I, and then adapted and adopted by the Christian Kings of

Spain – who built a cathedral inside it! You will also have free time

for lunch and sightseeing before returning to Mijas. 235 miles today,

mainly dual carriageway.

Malaga: In recent years Picasso’s birthplace of Malaga has undergone

a major facelift. You travel up the coast to this fine city with scenic

sea views, before reaching the city centre. There you have a walking

tour of the centre, with included entrance to the house on Plaza de

la Merced where, on 25th October 1881, the city’s most famous

son, Pablo Picasso, was born. The city now has a score of museums

including the Museo Carmen Thijssen, the Picasso Museum, and the

Pompidou Centre (yes, there is one here as well as in Paris!). In the old

centre you will find the city’s impressive cathedral, pleasant pedestrian

shopping streets and lots of tapas bars offering reasonably-priced

lunches. Shoppers may make for the El Corte Ingles department store,

or the new Muelle Uno (Pier One) complex in the revitalised port area.

You will have free time for lunch, and to take in the attractions of your

choice before you return to Mijas. 50 miles today.

The White Villages: Your third included excursion is a circular trip

through the landscapes of the Andalucian countryside. You start by

heading south, passing close to Marbella before stopping in Ojen

which is famed for its aniseed liqueur. Like Cordoba, its church is

built on a mosque and the belfry used to be a minaret. From Ojen you

continue to Monda. There was a Roman settlement here, and the locals

claim that in 45BC Caesar won a final battle nearby. The town fell to

the Christians in 1485, and the old hilltop fortress was destroyed in an

Arab uprising in the 16th century. The third white village is Alhaurin el

Grande. 50 miles today.

An optional excursion, to historic Antequera and the astonishing

limestone formations of El Torcal may also be available.

Seville, Mijas & Ronda

This superb value holiday gives you the chance to relax in a pretty white-painted village overlooking the Costa del Sol and

enjoy some of the wonders of Andalucia. Five nights are spent in delightful Mijas Pueblo, and two in magical Seville. In

winter, spring and early summer, southern Spain is warm and sunny, though the stifling temperatures of high summer are

still some time away – this is the perfect time to take in some of the remarkable sights of Andalucia.

• 5 nights hb Mijas, 2 nights bb Seville • Visits to Ronda, Marbella and glitzy Puerto Banus

PROGRAMME

Day One: Flight to Malaga. On arrival transfer to your hotel in Mijas (approx. 30

minutes) for four nights half board accommodation.

Mijas: The white painted centre of Mijas still has the look of an old Andalucian

village. The old village has now grown into a small town with all facilities

and good transport connections. Why not stroll and enjoy the views from the

Muralla Gardens at the top of the village where there are superb views over

the Mediterranean, linger over a quiet drink on one of the old town squares, or

browse in the artists’ studios and craft shops? The folk museum is well worth a

visit as is the new Contemporary Arts Centre showcasing Picasso’s ceramics as

well as some of his paintings and works by Dali, Braque and Miro.

Days Two to Four: Free in Mijas, with an included half-day excursion just

down the road to see the plush resort of Marbella and the billionaire’s marina of

Puerto Banus. Marbella, although one of Europe’s most chic resorts, retains an

attractive 15th-century old-town with narrow streets leading off its picturesque

plazas. Puerto Banus, on the other hand, is unapologetically brash where the

glitterati park their Ferraris next to their yachts and then do a little shopping in

the designer stores. At least window shopping is free!

There is also the chance to join an optional excursion to the ‘British Corner’,

Gibraltar, one of the ‘Pillars of Hercules’. British since 1704, ‘Gib’ has a

fascinating history, to which the Siege Tunnels bear witness. The rock is home

to the natural site of St Michael’s Cave, and to the Barbary apes who are the

colony’s symbol of freedom. Also easily accessible is Picasso’s home city of

Malaga, with an impressive new museum featuring the work of its most famous

son.

Day Five: Today the transfer to Seville is just under three hours. There will be

an included orientation tour of the city on arrival, with a stop in the pretty Triana

district, the traditional cradle of Flamenco, prior to check-in to your hotel for two

nights bed and breakfast accommodation. 146 miles today.

Seville, in a splendid location on the Guadalquivir River, is a lively city and

the capital of Flamenco. Wandering through the narrow streets you will soon

understand how Seville inspired Bizet’s Carmen and Mozart’s Marriage of Figaro.

Be sure to sample the excellent tapas in Seville - the tour is accompanied by a

bilingual Tour Director, who will assist with booking nearby reasonably priced

restaurants, if required.

Day Six: There are two optional excursions during your stay in Seville. The first

is a morning walking tour with a local guide, with entrance to the cathedral,

Columbus’ last resting place. The other excursion features an evening trip to a

Flamenco show.

Day Seven: Today you leave Seville and drive to Ronda. The spectacular 600ft

deep Tajo Gorge is spanned by the spectacular Puente Nuevo (new bridge).

The city’s bullring in the ‘’new’’ town is 230 years old, about the same age

as the new bridge! You will have free time for sightseeing in this interesting,

atmospheric and dramatic city. After lunch (not included), you continue through

the scenic Sierra to Mijas for your last night’s accommodation, again on a half

board basis. 140 miles today.

Day Eight: Transfer to the airport for your return flight.

Carcassonne, Cathar Country & Catalonia

The ramparts of Carcassonne, the mystery of Rennes-le-Château, the surrealism of Dalì’s Theatre Museum, combined

with a visit to modernist Barcelona, and stays in unspoilt locations on the Catalan coast and in a pleasant spa town in

the hills of Roussillon - this is a holiday to one of the most scenic parts of the Mediterranean. The area is also fabulously

rich in history, legend and stunning castles. Discover the land of the heretical Cathars and solve the mystery of Rennes le

Chateau – inspiration for Dan Brown’s da Vinci Code.

• 3 nights hb in Spanish Catalonia, 4 nights hb in the Roussillon area of France • Visits to Rennes-le-

Château, Carcassonne, The Dalì Museum in Figueres, and Barcelona

PROGRAMME

Day One: Flight to Catalonia. On arrival, transfer to your hotel on the

Catalan coast for two nights half board accommodation. Transfer time

50 minutes.

Day TWO: Optional half day excursion to the Roman city of Tarragona

where you can see the amphitheatre, port and beach and stroll through

the medieval centre. Under the Romans, Tarragona was the capital of

the Province of Northern Spain and home to the Emperor Augustus – a

Temple in his honour stood on the site of the current Cathedral. Your

excursion includes a walk with expert guide.

Day Three: Today you depart for France. En route you will stop in

Dalì’s home town of Figueras with its surreal (in the truest sense!)

theatre-museum (entrance included). The Dalì Museum, with its

luminous-egg façade, seems to want to stretch your mind even before

you enter! From there you proceed to your hotel in Amelie-les-Bains,

for four nights half board accommodation. Distance today is 156 miles,

mainly motorway.

Day Four: Full-day included excursion to Carcassonne and Rennesle-

Château. Although a longish day, it is packed with interest. You start

with a scenic drive past two spectacular Cathar castles – Puilaurens,

perched high above the valley, and Quéribus, whose rocky spur saw

the last stand of the Cathars in 1255. In Rennes-le-Château you will

see the church, presbytery, villa, tower and grounds built by the priest,

Abbé Sauniere, at the end of the 19th century. You will discover the true

extent of the mystery that has spawned so many books and several tv

programmes. You will not be the first to try and solve the mystery – a

byelaw had to be passed to stop unauthorised digging in the village by

treasure-hunters!

You continue to Carcassonne for lunch (not included), and a free

afternoon in the most spectacular walled city on earth. A UNESCO

Heritage site, the cité is a remarkable defensive structure with

barbican, dry moat, outer and inner walls, inaccessible watch-towers,

posterns, loopholes and arrow slits. The last part of your circular route

is motorway, and you arrive back at the hotel at approx 1830. Total

today is just under 200 miles.

Days Five and Six: There is an optional half day excursion to the

walled village of Prats de Mollo, just 12 miles up the Vallespir valley,

on the side of Mount Canigou. There is also an optional excursion to

nearby Perpignan, the capital of the Roussillon, and to the artists’

resort of Collioure. A port since Roman times, many crusades to the

Holy Land set off from here, and reproductions of works by artists who

painted in Collioure (Matisse and Dérain in particular) will be found on

the quaysides.

Day Seven: Today you return to the Costa Dorada for your last night,

again on a half board basis. En route there is a short tour of, and free

time to explore, the exciting city of Barcelona, capital of Catalonia.

Distance today is similar to Day Three, approx 160 miles.

Jaca, Pamplona & the Spanish Pyrenees

The highest peaks of the Pyrenees are on the Spanish side in Aragon. This holiday takes you off the beaten tourist track into these

magnificent mountains, with a host of things to see along the way! You will see a bodega on the Barbastro wine road, medieval

stone villages, Canfranc’s huge ‘ghost’ train station, Hemingway’s Pamplona, and an imposing 11th-century Romanesque castle.

You spend four nights in Jaca, ‘Pearl of the Pyrenees’, and three nights on the coast, including one in historic Tarragona.

• 2 nights hb Costa Dorada, 4 nights hb in Jaca, 1 night bb Tarragona • Visits to a Somontano winery and to the walled

town of Ainsa • Excursion to Canfranc and Candanchu mountain resort • Excursion to Pamplona • Visit to Loarre Castle

PROGRAMME

Day One: Flight to Reus or Barcelona. Transfer to your hotel on the Costa

Dorada, under an hour away, for two nights’ half-board accommodation.

Day Two: Free day in resort.

Day Three: Today you leave the coast and head north through the hilly winecountry

of Catalonia and then into the Aragonese Pyrenees. You make a short

stop at a Somontano winery for a tasting in one of Spain’s oldest wine regions,

magnificently set against a spectacular Pyrenean backdrop. From here you

climb into the Pyrenees proper towards the unspoilt and historic walled town

of Ainsa. At the confluence of two rivers, and at an altitude of nearly 2000ft,

Ainsa nestles between three different protected natural park areas. From the

11th-century castle, you can stroll the short distance to the arcaded medieval

town square, lined with old stone houses, the church of Santa Maria – and

welcoming bars and restaurants! There are impressive views down to the two

rivers and up to the (often) snow-streaked 7500ft. crag of Peña Montañesa.

You continue on your dramatic route to Jaca, where you spend 4 nights on

a half-board basis. 200 miles today, mainly on excellent new highways, and

always through wonderful scenery: towering mountains, rocky outcrops and

sparkling waters are all in evidence.

Jaca is an interesting town with a pleasant pedestrianised main street,

medieval town wall, Romanesque 11th-century cathedral and 16th-century

citadel as well as other notable historic buildings. Jaca has bid three times to

host the winter Olympics, and is on the Aragonese Way of St James - pilgrims

on their way to Santiago de Compostela are regular visitors in the historic

town centre.

Day four: In the morning, you have a brief orientation walk in the old centre

of Jaca. In the afternoon, there is a short, but fascinating, included excursion to

Canfranc-Estacion. Following the River Aragon up the mountain, you arrive at

the enormous, mainly disused, former international railway station at the exit

of the Somport Tunnel on the Spanish side. Its size (more than twice the width

of Buckingham Palace and with no less than 156 doors!) is explained by the

necessity to handle the transit of passengers, luggage and freight switching to

and from the different gauges of French and Spanish tracks: though national

pride must have had something to do with it as well! On a short tour of the

station you will hear about its construction, stories of Nazi gold passing

through, of the exodus during the Spanish Civil War, and about its final closure

in 1970. Afterwards, you take the short scenic drive up to the nearby French

border and through the ski resort of Candanchu. 18 miles each way.

Days Five and Six: In Jaca with one included and one optional excursion. The

included excursion is to Pamplona, the capital of Navarre, famed worldwide for

the ‘Running of the Bulls’, featured by Hemingway in ‘The Sun Also Rises.’ Your

local guide will walk you along the bulls’ route to the bullring and show you the

town’s focal point, the Plaza del Castillo, near to which lies the former Jewish

Quarter and the Gothic Cathedral of Santa Maria. Part of the old city wall is still

intact. The city centre is pleasantly compact and there are myriad places for

tapas, lunch, strolling or hunting for souvenirs. 70 miles each way.

The optional excursion is to the French side of the mighty Pyrenees. The first

stop is in the pretty village of Biescas. From there you drive – as ever - through

impressive mountain scenery, skirting two reservoirs and reaching the French

border at Portelet and on to Artouste, on Fabreges Lake. A cable car takes you

up to the ‘Petit Train’- a 55-minute narrow-gauge run of spectacular views at

an altitude of over 6000ft. The line was built to aid the construction of another

dam and reservoir, and opened to tourism in the 1930s. The road journey,

again on good roads through impressive mountains, is 43 miles each way.

Day Seven: Today you bid farewell to the mountains, passing the impressive

1000ft high rock formations of Los Mallos de Riglos, and stopping at the

equally impressive castle of Loarre – the best preserved Romanesque castle

in Europe, and set on a rocky outcrop offering great views. You continue on to

Tarragona, where your last night is on a bed and breakfast basis.

Tarragona’s walled town centre is a UNESCO world heritage site. It boasts a

fine medieval cathedral as well as Roman remains: these include a stunning

2nd-century amphitheatre, Circus Maximus, and two forums. 190 miles today.

Day Eight: Free time until your departure transfer to the airport for your flight

home. Transfer time: 15 minutes to Reus, just over one hour to Barcelona.

Montserrat, Roman Tarragona & Gaudi’s Reus

A week in a four-star hotel on the Catalan coast, with three varied and interesting excursions to show you different

aspects of Catalonia from your comfortable holiday base – this is the recipe for this holiday. Catalonia has an incredibly

rich variety of landscapes. As well as sandy beaches, such as the wide, sandy one in front of your hotel, there are

mountains, vineyards, rivers and picturesque villages all waiting to be discovered. As is one of the world’s great cities,

Barcelona - easily accessible by train, with half-hourly departures.

• 7 nights hb on the Catalan coast, wine included with dinner • Excursion to Montserrat and Sitges

• Excursion to Roman Tarragona & Reus • Entrance to the Gaudi Centre in Reus • Excursion into the Alt

Camp Countryside • Entrances to the Espluga wine cellar and Santes Creus Monastery

PROGRAMME

Day One: Flight to Reus or Barcelona. Transfer to your hotel, just under an

hour away. Seven nights half board accommodation is reserved for you.

Days Two to Seven: In resort with three included excursions.

Montserrat & Sitges: just an hour away, Montserrat is one of Spain’s

most spectacular sights, with its astonishing rock formations,

monastery, and fabulous views of the Llobregat Valley: Montserrat

has been a major destination for pilgrims through the centuries. The

basilica, home of the famous ‘Black Madonna’, dates from the 16th

century and (subject to confirmation) you will be able to hear the boys’

choir sing in the church. You could also go up to the nature area on the

funicular railway to explore the walking trails. On the return journey we

make a stop in the modernist resort of Sitges. 110 miles today.

Roman Tarragona & Gaudi’s Reus: just 20 miles away, Tarragona

was the capital of the Province of Northern Spain and home to

the Emperor Augustus – a temple in his honour stood on the site

of the current cathedral. You will spend the morning in the old

city in the company of an expert guide, take the view from the

Pretorium (entrance fee included), and see the amphitheatre,

the Circus Maximus, the forum, and pretty streets and squares as you

stroll through the medieval centre. You will also have free time for

lunch, and to explore the market area and new Rambla area with its

statue of the ‘Castell’, the ‘Human Tower’. On the return journey we will

make a short detour to make stop in Gaudi’s home city of Reus, with

a visit to the Gaudi Centre where you will learn something of the great

modernist architect’s work. 57 miles today.

Your third included excursion may be the one that surprises you most.

You go off the beaten tourist track to visit the nearby ‘Alt Camp’ area

– home to some lesser-known but no less impressive attractions - the

jewel that is the medieval, walled town of Montblanc where you have

a short orientation walk and free time to explore, sightsee, and have

lunch; the unspoilt market town of l’Espluga de Francoli, which boasts

what they call the ‘Wine Cathedral’ - the modernist building that

houses the oldest wine co-operative in Catalonia; and the Cistercian

Monastery of Santes Creus, one of the three great Catalan monasteries,

founded in the 12th century and housing two royal tombs. From Santes

Creus you transfer back to your hotel, with an en-route photo stop at

the unusual modernist Sanctuary at Montferri. 86 miles today.

Day Eight: Departure to the airport for your flight home.

Western Andalucia - Isla Canela, Rio Tinto & the Guadiana River

This holiday has the perfect balance of relaxation beside the dunes along Spain’s Atlantic coast and on the banks of the

Guadiana river and scenic sightseeing jam-packed with historical and cultural interest. Your holiday base is the 4* Playamarina

Hotel on Punta del Moral on Isla Canela in Spain, just over the Portuguese border. From here you visit the beautiful coastline

of the Donana Natural Park, enjoy the fascinating Columbus sites and the stunning scenery of the British Rio Tinto mines and

have a lazy day on a boat sailing up the River Guadiana which marks the border between Spain and Portugal.

• 7 nights hb in a 4* hotel on Isla Canela • One included spa entrance • Full day excursion to the Rio Tinto mines

with train ride • Full day excursion to the Columbus sites and El Rocio • Boat cruise on the Guadiana River

PROGRAMME

Day One: Flight to Faro in Portugal and transfer to your hotel on Isla Canela in

Spain for seven nights half board accommodation. The transfer takes around an

hour, but you have to put your watches on an hour when you cross the Guadiana

which is the border.

Days Two to Seven: In resort with three included excursions. There is plenty

to do in your free time. The front of the hotel looks across to the thriving fishing

village and marina of Punta del Moral. You can have a pleasant stroll around the

harbour or take a little ferry ride across to Isla Cristina. The rear of the hotel backs

on to the promenade from where there are wooden boardwalks across the dunes

to the beach and the sea. Walking past the inviting chiringuito (beach bar) might

be difficult! There is a frequent bus service which makes the 5-mile journey to

Ayamonte on the Guadiana river. Ayamonte is a bustling ‘frontier’ town with a

compact old centre, marina and port. The ‘frontier’ is the river and for under 3

euros you can get a return ferry across to the pretty town of Vila Real de San

Antonio in Portugal. If you can find the time, a complimentary 1 ½ hour circuit of

the hotel’s extensive spa facilities is included for you!

There is an included excursion to La Rabida Monastery, Caravelle Wharf and El

Rocio. Just over an hour to the east of your hotel lies the monastery of La Rabida,

where Columbus stayed with the monks before his voyage to the New World in

1492. The King and Queen of Spain had rejected his request for funding to seek a

westward route to China, but with the intercession of the monks (who were to get

a percentage!), funding was granted…and the rest, as they say, is history. Nearby

lies Caravelle Wharf, with full-size replicas of Columbus’ three ships – the Pinto,

the Nina, and the Santa Maria (entrance fee included). All are much smaller than

you might expect – but they actually travelled across the Atlantic in 1992, for the

500th anniversary. You then travel to the strange town of El Rocio, which seems

like something out of the Tex-Mex West, with clapboard houses, sand covered

squares and avenues and rails to tie your horse to! But this is no tourist movie set

- in fact it is a major pilgrimage site, and lies at the edge of the Donana Natural

Park. There is free time for a late lunch here before returning to your hotel.

Another included excursion takes you to the unique landscape and ecosystem

that are the Rio Tinto mines. There has been mining in the hills 80 miles northeast

of Isla Canela for over 5000 years. In the museum in the town of Rio Tinto

there is an excellent re-creation of the Roman mine. There is British influence in

many parts of Spain but nowhere as pronounced than in this remote corner of

Andalucia. The pinnacle of mining in the area began in 1873 with the arrival of

the British Rio Tinto Mining Company Ltd who paid £3.68 million for the rights to

exploit the disused copper mines. The company employed up to 20,000 men, laid

300km of rail track, built houses for employees and management, a Protestant

church and a Social Club which had a cricket team and introduced football to

Spain. The museum is housed in the company’s hospital and its offices are now

the town hall. Highlight of the tour is the rail journey through the open cast mines

where you’ll see an amazing ‘Martian’ landscape with the red (bright red!) Rio

Tinto river running through it. (NB the train is accessed down a long flight of

steps – no ramp).

You really chill out and relax on this excursion – a boat ride up the Guadiana

river. The boat leaves from Ayamonte and poodles upstream through the soporific

scenery of the gentle hills of the Guadiana valley. The captain might stop in

Portugal on the left – then again, it might be Spain on the right – either way, you’ll

have the chance to enjoy the hospitality of one of the riparian communities. The

return to your hotel will be by coach.

Day Eight: Transfer back to Faro Airport for your flight home. You can put your

watch back an hour after crossing the river.

A Week on the Lisbon Coast

Cascais and Estoril, side by side and connected by a seafront promenade, are the two main resorts on the Lisbon Coast.

Estoril, with its plush villas and Belle Époque casino is the more traditional of the two, while lively Cascais still retains

some of its character as a traditional fishing town. Just sixteen miles from Lisbon, this part of the coast is a great base for

exploring the capital and attractions further afield such as Fatima, Tomar and Obidos.

• 7 nights hb Monte Estoril • Excursion to Lisbon • Excursion to Obidos and Mafra • Excursion to Fatima,

Batalha and Tomar

PROGRAMME

Day One: Flight to Lisbon. Thirty-minute transfer to your hotel in

Monte Estoril.

Days Two to seven: Your hotel is in Monte Estoril between Estoril

and Cascais, a 25-minute walk from the centre of either or you can

take the frequent local bus. There are plenty of shops and cafés close

by as is Monte Estoril train station from where there is a regular service

to Lisbon. There are three included excursions during your stay.

Lisbon: Everywhere you go in Lisbon you will find evidence of the city’s

historic links with the Age of Discovery from where intrepid explorers

opened up the sea-trading routes to India, Brazil, China and Japan in

the 15th-century. Today, the city is a mix of old quarters such as the

Alfama, a maze of steep cobbled streets, the wide avenues leading to

the 18th century Rossio square and modern developments with fine

shops. This is a half day trip by coach but you can stay on in Lisbon

and take the train back to your hotel.

Mafra and Obidos: Mafra’s grandiose palace-monastery was

commissioned by King João V in 1717 to celebrate the birth of his first

child and has 5000 doorways, 2500 windows, 880 rooms, 154 grand

staircases, 29 courtyards and 330 monks’ cells. The two bell towers

together house over 100 bells (the largest collection in the world), still

played every Sunday and audible across a distance of 15 miles. In

pretty little Obidos you have free time to walk the perfectly preserved

walls that surround cobbled streets, whitewashed houses, and ancient

terracotta roofs. Above the town is a picture-book 13th-century castle

which has been converted into a pousada. 130 miles.

Fatima, Batalha and Tomar: The pilgrimage site of Fatima caught

the media attention in 1917 with the first appearance of Our Lady

of Fatima to three shepherd children in Irene´s Cove where currently

the Chapel of the Apparitions is located. The apparitions took place

every 13th day from May until October. From here you continue to

Batalha which owes its origin to the building of the Battle Abbey after

the battle of Aljubarrota in 1385 between Portuguese and Spanish

armies. In thanks to the Virgin Mary for the victory over the Castilians,

D. João I ordered the construction of the Monastery which is one of

the most significant buildings of the Portuguese Gothic and Manueline

style. The next stop is the Templar city of Tomar. The city was taken

from the Moors in the middle of the 12th-century and donated to the

Knights Templar. In 1160 Dom Gualdim Pais, Great Master of the order,

began construction of the Castle and Monastery that would come to be

the headquarters of the Templars in Portugal. The stunning Convent

of Christ dates from 1162 and dominates the attractive town below.

During the reign of Prince Henry the Navigator, the cloisters between

the Great Cloister and the fortress of the Knights Templar were built.

237 miles today.

There will also be an optional excursion to Sintra. The whole town is a

UNESCO World Heritage site on account of its 19th-century Romantic

architecture. Upon arrival you first visit Sintra National Palace, also

known as Palácio da Vila, famous for its magnificent painted ceilings.

The palace is the only survivor of the country’s Royal Halls, dating from

the Middle Ages. One of the palace highlights is its kitchen complete

with huge 110 feet high conical chimneys.

Day Eight: Departure for the airport and your flight home.

Provence - Arles, Avignon, Nîmes & the Camargue

The base for our exploration of this enchanting and captivating part of France is the Roman city of Arles, renowned for its

complete amphitheatre, medieval centre and scenes and landscapes famously portrayed in the works of van Gogh. Other

highlights of the holiday include the old papal seat of Avignon, the ancient monuments of Nîmes, the Camargue port towns

of Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer and Aigues-Mortes, and the iconic symbol of the south, the Pont du Gard.

• 7 nights in Arles – 2 hb and 5 bb • Walking tour of Arles • Excursion to Nîmes, Pont du Gard and Avignon

• Boat trip in the Camargue with lunch • Visits to Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer and Aigues-Mortes

PROGRAMME

Day One: Flight to Marseille or Nîmes, transfer to your hotel in Arles

(one hour from Marseille, 40 minutes from Nîmes) for seven nights

hotel accommodation. Two dinners in the hotel are included during

your stay, leaving five nights to sample the delights of the local

restaurants. Your Tour Director will be on hand to assist.

DAYS TWO TO SEVEN: In Arles. A walking tour of the city will acquaint

you with all the major sights and attractions of this splendid city -

Place du Forum, Espace van Gogh, amphitheatre and theatre, the

Roman baths and the Musée Réattu on the bank of the river Rhône.

Arles’ golden age began under Caesar when it became an important

regional capital of the Roman Empire. Evidence of this is everywhere,

but brazenly obvious at ‘les Arènes’ – the wonderfully preserved

amphitheatre which is now used for bullfights. The special light

in Provence has always attracted painters and Arles will be forever

associated with Vincent van Gogh for his spat with Gaugin, severing

his ear, but, above all, his incredible artistic output while in the city. He

arrived in Arles in February 1888 and in the prolific fifteen months that

followed he created more than three hundred works including some

of his best known – the Arles Sunflowers series, his Chair, Bedroom.

You can follow a walking trail in Arles featuring van Gogh scenes such

as the Amphitheatre, Café Terrace at Night and Starry Night over the

Rhone.

As well as the walking tour, there are two included excursions during

your stay in Arles. The first is a tour of the Camargue by coach and

boat. The Camargue is Europe’s largest wetland and as well as birds,

its other famous residents are the white horses and black bulls.

The day starts with a short coach transfer through the Camargue to

Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer. On the way you’ll hear the story of the

Three Marys (Jacob, Salome and Magdalene) and their servant Sarah,

patron saint of Gypsies, thousands of whom have been making the

annual pilgrimage to Stes-Maries for centuries. A boat cruise on the

Petit Rhone will show you aspects of the Camargue and its wildlife

only accessible by river. After a lunch (included) in Stes-Maries you

continue west across the Camargue to Aigues-Mortes, where the

immense city walls still protect the medieval city within. After a guided

tour you return to Arles. 75 miles today.

The second included excursion is a grand tour of the region to Nîmes,

the Pont du Gard and Avignon – an 80-mile round trip packed with

interest. Nîmes has a complete Roman amphitheatre to rival, even

better, that of Arles. Both were built in 1st century AD and became

residential areas post-empire until they were cleared out in the first

half of the 19th century. As well as an ancient centre Nîmes has

excellent modern architecture by Norman Foster. From Nîmes, you

head to Avignon, stopping en route to admire the 3-tier arches of the

Pont du Gard, part of the 50km Roman aqueduct built to carry water

to Nîmes. In Avignon you’ll have plenty of time to admire the sights

of the magnificent former papal capital – Palais des Papes, Place de

l’Horloge, the ramparts or maybe even dance ‘sur le pont’! After your

time in Avignon you return to Arles.

There is also an optional excursion into the Alpilles hills just 12 miles

from Arles. The day includes a visit to the spectacular hilltop village

of Les-Baux-de-Provence, the extraordinary artistic sound and light

show of Carrières de Lumières in the Les Baux underground limestone

quarry, the beautiful provençal town of St Remy and the clinic at

Saint Paul-de-Mausole where van Gogh painted another series of

masterpieces while a voluntary patient in the asylum.

DAY EIGHT: Free time until departure for the airport and your flight

home.

The Cinque Terre, Portofino & the Italian Lakes

This Italian holiday takes you to the millionaires’ haunts of Portofino and Santa Margherita Ligure and the spectacular

landscapes of the Cinque Terre and Lake Maggiore, perhaps the most impressive of Italy’s sparkling lakes. Along the way

you will travel on the picturesque ‘Three Valleys Railway’ into the heart of Columbus’ maritime city of Genoa, and visit

Pavia, a medieval city with a Visconti castle, and whose cathedral boasts one of Italy’s largest domes. While in Santa

Margherita, you will enjoy a boat trip to Portofino and a train journey through the Cinque Terre.

• 3 nights hb Lake Maggiore, 4 nights hb in Santa Margherita Ligure • Visits to Portofino, the Cinque Terre,

Genoa and Pavia • Journey on the historic Three Valleys Railway

PROGRAMME

Day One: Flight to Milan, transfer to your hotel on Lake Maggiore for

two nights half board accommodation. Transfer times from Malpensa,

Linate and Bergamo are 30 minutes, 1 hour and 1 hour 30 minutes

respectively.

Day Two: Free day to explore Lake Maggiore. Why not take a boat trip

on the lake?

Day Three: Today you travel south to the Riviera di Levante. Your first

stop is Vercelli, a historic town surrounded by paddy-fields (its rice

is exported worldwide). You then continue south to Casella, north of

Genoa, arriving after lunch to board the ‘Three Valleys Train’. Since 1929

the red and white carriages of this narrow gauge service has linked

Columbus’ home city with the villages and valleys of its hinterland. The

trip down to the city takes about an hour, and there are excellent views

of the coastline. In Genoa you will see something of the restored port

and old city centre before you complete your journey by coach to the

chic resort of Santa Margherita Ligure, where you spend four nights on

a half board basis.

Santa Margherita lies in a sheltered bay, close to Portofino. Its harbour

is home to many luxury yachts. The journey today is 160 miles.

Days Four to Six: In Santa Margherita with included excursions by

boat to Portofino (half day) and by train to the Spectacular Cinque Terre

(full day).

Portofino: like the millionaires, you travel to the world’s most beautiful

harbour by boat (15-minute trip) from the landing stage just 500m

from your hotel. Portofino’s colourful hotchpotch of fishermen’s houses

embraces its harbour and the luxury craft of the nearby villa-owners –

Portofino is the select retreat of Italy’s powerful! Above the harbour is

Brown’s Castle, and there are good views from the church. You can see

why Disney copied it – the original is stunning!

Cinque Terre: the spectacular coastline, hills and villages landscapes

of the Cinque Terre are UNESCO listed and within the National Park,

where the mountains drop almost vertically into the sea. You will travel

by the train from Santa Margherita (the station is 600m from the hotel).

The ‘Five Lands’ are about an hour away, and comprise the unspoilt

traffic-free villages of Monterosso, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola, and

Riomaggiore, which nestle in tiny coves, set below the ingeniously

terraced vineyards that, together with the fishing, gave the area its

livelihood.

Day Seven: You leave Santa Margherita and travel north, following

a slightly different route to take in the cathedral city of Pavia. Pavia

rivalled Milan as the capital of the Lombard kings until the 11th century,

but was then ruled variously by Austrians, Spanish and French. There

were 100 medieval towers, just two remain – but there is still plenty to

see! La Certosa, a notable Renaissance monastery, lies just to the north

of the city. You arrive at Lake Maggiore in the afternoon, for one night,

again on a half board basis. Total today 152 miles, mainly motorway.

Day Eight: Free time until your transfer to the airport and your return

flight.

Bordighera - the Italian Riviera & Monte Carlo

The sun-seeking British of the 19th century left their mark all along the Riviera but perhaps nowhere more so than in the

Italian town of Bordighera – famous for its perfect climate, seafront promenade, and palm trees. It was also a favourite

resort of Claude Monet who stayed ten weeks here and painted thirty-five landscapes in Bordighera and the neighbouring

hills. Just a few miles along the coast we find two more popular British haunts – Monte Carlo and Nice.

• 7 nights hb in Bordighera • Excursion to Taggia and San Remo • Excursion to Monte Carlo • Excursion to

Dolceacqua • Walking tour of Bordighera

PROGRAMME

Day One: Flight to Nice and transfer to your hotel (45-minutes) in

Bordighera for seven nights half board accommodation.

Bordighera is a pleasant, typically Ligurian seaside town with a superb

pedestrianized promenade. Walking through the town you become

aware of its British connection with signs to the Museo Biblioteca

Bicknell or to the Giardini Lowe. These are echoes of a past when

British visitors outnumbered the locals by 3 to 2 and had their own

Anglican church, tennis club, theatre, weekly newspaper, banks and

shops. As well as for its idyllic scenery and climate, Bordighera is noted

for the palm trees along the Lungomare (Promenade) from which the

Vatican selects its palms for Palm Sunday.

Days Two to Seven: On Day 2 there is a late morning walking

tour pointing out the highlights of the town. Free in resort with three

included excursions.

The first included excursion will be to Taggia, another example of a

Ligurian old town, and San Remo, the ‘Pearl of the Riviera of Flowers’,

with its old centre, impressive villas and pleasant market area.

The second included excursion will be to Monte Carlo. No holiday to

the Riviera would be complete without a visit to the Principality of

Monaco. This little country is divided into four areas, only one of which

is truly ‘Monte Carlo’, with its plush hotels and fin-de-siecle Casino (try

and break the bank if you wish, but we don’t recommend it!). Along the

harbour-side, where the Grand Prix cars race each May, are yachts of

incredible opulence; and on the rock above is the Palace where Grace

Kelly lived with Prince Rainier and where they still ‘change the guard’

daily. There is also the Jardin Exotique (entrance not included) where

the 2400 hours of yearly sunshine allow exotic plants and cacti to

flourish, and also a fine Oceanographic Museum.

The third included excursion is to the Nervia Valley. You drive through

Camporosso, a pretty village, and stop in medieval Dolceaqua,

dominated by the Dorias’ Castle. The bridge, over the Nervia river,

was painted by Monet in 1884. You will visit the ‘Visionarium’ – it will

surprise you, we promise! You continue up the valley to Pigna, a pretty

mountain village.

Also available will be an optional excursion to the Villa Rothschild, with

its superb gardens, and Nice, with its famous ‘Promenade des Anglais’.

You travel along the spectacular lower corniche passing Beaulieu to

the Villa Ephrussi de Rothschild located on Cap-Ferrat. The Italianate,

pink-coloured property is luxuriously furnished, has splendid sea views

and is encircled by no less than nine splendid gardens, each following

a different theme. After your visit, you continue to Nice for lunch and

free time, returning to the hotel via the even more spectacular middle

corniche in the late afternoon.

Other days: Free to enjoy the delights of Bordighera as others have

done in the past. Your hotel is handily situated for the station, with

services to Ventimiglia, and to San Remo and beyond. On Thursday

there is a market on the seafront near the hotel. There are also local

bus services.

Day Eight: Free time until you depart for the airport. Dependent on

traffic conditions and flight timings, there may be time for some lastminute

shopping in Nice en route.

HOTEL PARIGI HHHH, Bordighera (seven nights)

This comfortable hotel is family-run and stands right on the seafront

promenade, just a short stroll from the town centre. Rooms have flatscreen

view rooms are available at a supplement. (www.hotelparigi.com). Free

one-hour session in the hotel wellness centre.

The Islands & Gardens of Lake Maggiore

This holiday includes a week on Lago Maggiore, Italy’s second largest lake, which stretches north from Lombardy and up

into Switzerland. It lies, sheltered, on the south side of the Alps, making for a mild climate and consequent lush vegetation.

Famed gardens feature Mediterranean and exotic flora, including azaleas, rhododendrons and camelias.

• 7 nights hb Lake Maggiore • Full day excursion by boat to the Borromean Islands • Excursion by boat to

Captain McEacharn’s fabulous Villa Taranto garden • Excursion to Lake Orta

PROGRAMME

Day One: Flight to Milan, transfer to your Lake Maggiore Hotel

for seven nights half board accommodation. Transfer times from

Malpensa, Linate and Bergamo are 45 minutes, 1 ¼ hours and 1 ¾

hours respectively.

Days Two to Seven: These are spent on Lago Maggiore, where

beautiful villas line the shores. Our hotel is in Stresa, the lake’s main

resort, halfway up the lake and from where boats and steamers

frequently traverse the lake from the landing quay close to the hotel.

The lakeside promenade near the hotel allows for a pleasant stroll to

the pretty town centre - around the main Piazza there is a good range

of shops, bars, and restaurants. As long as it is operating, you will

have the chance to travel high onto Mount Mottarone by cable car –

fabulous views!

We have included three excursions during your stay.

1. The Borromean Islands. Your first excursion features Lake

Maggiore’s three best-known islands, which lie in the bay, a short way

from the shore. Your first island Isola Madre, ‘Mother Island’, has an

impressive villa and gardens with towering palm trees – the tallest in

Italy. You then have free time for lunch on the pleasant quays of Isola

dei Pescatori, the ‘Fishermen’s Island. It is a very short crossing to Isola

Bella, the ‘Beautiful Island’, with its 17th-century palace – you are

following in the holiday footsteps of Goethe, Byron, Stendhal, Wagner

and Hemingway! The formal gardens, patrolled by peacocks, contain

plants from all over the world. Entrance fees and Guide Service on both

Isola Madre and Isola Bella are included.

2. The Villa Taranto Botanic Garden. You take the boat across the

bay to Pallanza. Although supposedly created as an ‘English’ garden,

Villa Taranto’s heritage is very much Scottish – its creator, Captain

McEacharn, was a proud Scot: the Taranto name comes from one of

his Macdonald ancestors, who was given the title ’Duke of Taranto’ by

Napoleon and whose father sped ‘over the sea to Skye’ with Bonnie

Prince Charlie! The entrance to the garden is through ‘Conifer Alley’.

Highlights include the water gardens, the Dahlia Garden and the

herbarium and the fine terraces.

3. Lake Orta. A relaxing trip to one of the most beautiful lakes in Europe:

Lake Orta. Surrounded by lush woodland Orta really is a hidden secret.

There is free time to stroll and admire the quaint cobbled streets of Orta

S. Giulio and for taking a coffee at a café in the picturesque lakeside

piazza. There is also the opportunity for a boat ride to the enchanting

S. Giulio’s Island, where you can visit the 12th-century Basilica and

crypt of S. Giulio (ferry not included). The afternoon continues through

the scenic countryside of the Vergante Hills and along the southern tip

of Lake Maggiore and the towering statue of S. Carlo Borromeo, said to

be the largest in the world, with panoramic views of the lake.

Optional excursions will also be available.

Day Eight: Free time until you depart for the airport for your flight

home.

Lake Iseo & the Camonica Valley

At 15 miles long, it is smaller than its more famous neighbours but just as perfectly-formed! Nestling amid the scenic

mountains at the gorgeous northern end of the lake is the resort of Lovere. There is a full day out on the lake to visit the

appropriately named Monte Isola, ‘Mountain Island’ – Italy’s largest lake-island, which rises a full 420m above Iseo’s

shimmering waters. On another full day excursion, you can enjoy the alpine scenery of the Camonica valley from your train

window, visiting the pretty towns of Edolo and Pisogne which is home to famous prehistoric rock carvings.

• 7 nights hb in Lovere, Lake Iseo • Boat trip down the lake, with time to explore Monte Isola • Full day

excursion in the Camonica valley by boat, train and coach

PROGRAMME

Day One: Flight to Bergamo or Malpensa Airports. Transfer to

your resort of Lovere (40 minutes from Bergamo, 90 minutes from

Malpensa).

Lovere: Set on a bay of Lake Iseo, with a semi-circle of mountains

behind, the setting is wonderful. A member of ‘I Borghi Piu Belli

d’Italia’, ‘Italy’s Most Beautiful Villages’, this pretty little town of 5000

people has Italian-style arcaded streets, but with Swiss-style wooden

overhanging roofs. Along the lakeside are grand old palaces, a modern

yachting marina and a good selection of shops, bars and restaurants.

Climbing up into the old town, you are soon in an old-fashioned Italy

of shady squares and ancient church towers. There is good public

transport for getting around on local buses and a boat service which

links Lovere with Pisogne (15-minute trip), which has a railway station

on the line between Brescia and Edolo.

Days Two to Seven: At leisure in resort with two included excursions.

The first is a full day cruise on the lake. In the morning you sail south

calling at the little lakeside villages, right down to Iseo town at the

southern end where there is free time for lunch. Retracing its wake,

the boat calls in at Monte Isola where you have a little time to explore.

Monte Isola is also in the list of Italy’s Most Beautiful Villages, but there

are in fact 2000 inhabitants in the islands several villages and hamlets.

The ‘island mountain’ reaches 420m above the lake (600m above sea

level), with a fortress on top. You then cruise back to Lovere.

The second included excursion takes you on a full day tour of the

beautiful Camonica valley, by train, coach and boat! You depart by

coach to the Naquane Archaeological Park, 20 miles away. Please

note there is a walk on cobbles mainly uphill from the bus parking

place to the entrance of the Park. Your guide will show the highlights of

the pre-historic rock art of animals and people dating from the stone

age through to the Roman period before you continue to Edolo. Edolo,

the ‘Granite Village’ at the top of the valley, is set amid mountains

reaching 3300m. You have time to stroll the medieval town centre

and have lunch here before taking the train back down the valley to

Pisogne. In Pisogne you visit the medieval tower in the main square

and the church of Santa Maria della Neve. Referred to as the ‘poor

man’s Sistine Chapel’, the church has wonderful frescoes painted by

Romanino between 1532 and 1534. You also have free time in Pisogne

before taking the 15 minute ferry trip back to Lovere.

Optional excursions, including a scenic trip to St Moritz aboard the

Bernina Express Train and a coach trip to Bergamo’s magnificent Citta

Alta and the mountain village of Clusone in the Valle Seriana, will also

be available.

Day Eight: Free time until your departure to the airport. Depending

on flight times, there may be time for a spot of last-minute shopping

en route.

The Tuscan Coast, Lucca & Florence

The Versilia Coast is a favourite holiday destination of Italy’s rich and famous. Your holiday base, Marina di Pietrasanta,

has excellent beaches and a backdrop of the Apuan Alps. Your holiday includes three contrasting excursions: to the mighty

Florence of Dante, Boccaccio and Machiavelli; to the stunningly beautiful ‘Gulf of Poets’ of Byron and Shelley; and a circular

trip by coach and rail through the Apuan Alps and Serchio valley, with an afternoon in the wonderful walled city of Lucca.

• 7 nights hb Marina di Pietrasanta, on the Versilian coast • Excursion to Florence • Excursion to the scenic

Gulf of Poets • Train trip through the Apuan Alps with a visit to Lucca

PROGRAMME

May & September

Day One: Flight to Pisa and a short transfer to your hotel for seven

nights half board accommodation in Marina di Pietrasanta.

Marina di Pietrasanta: the more modern beach resort is 3km from the

old town of Pietrasanta, and has shops, bars, restaurants and pier.

The resort centre is 700m from your hotel, and there is a regular bus

service which stops near the hotel to Viareggio and beyond.

Days Two to Seven: At leisure on the coast, with three included

excursions. You have an included full day trip to Florence where your

guide will show you some of the masterpieces including the Cathedral,

Piazza della Signoria, and Santa Croce – where Galileo insisted to the

end that the earth moved around the sun, rather than vice-versa. You

will also have free time for shopping and sightseeing. Florence is 68

miles away: you will cover the last few miles by local train to get right

into the city centre.

The second trip takes you into the nearby Apuan Alps – the ‘marble

mountains’ – and Lucca. You take the motorway to Aulla (32 miles),

where there is time to explore, before catching the train down the

valley to the exquisite walled town of Lucca (journey time 2 hours).

In Lucca there is free time for lunch, and then a guided walking tour

of the main sights. In the late afternoon, you travel back to your hotel

by coach (25 minutes). Please note that if for any reason the train is

not operating, the excursion will concentrate on Lucca rather than the

valley.

There is also the chance to join an optional excursion to Torre del Lago

Puccini, just half an hour south of your resort. Puccini called this area

“paradise” - he converted an old watchtower by the lake to a villa, now

a museum: the town has added ‘Puccini’ to its name in his honour.

Day Eight: Transfer to Pisa airport and your flight home.

YOUR HOTEL

HOTEL JOSEPH HHH, Marina di Pietrasanta (seven nights)

The Hotel Joseph, recently-refurbished, offers spacious lounge areas, lift,

bar, restaurant, terraces, and outdoor pool area with terrace and fine views

of the Versilia Coast. There is a wellness centre, with treatments available

(charges apply). Bedrooms are in two adjacent buildings, and have shower,

wc, safety deposit box, and wifi. Twin rooms also have balcony. (www.

hoteljoseph.net)



The other included excursion takes you 40 minutes north to the azure

‘Gulf of Poets’, a glorious bay of verdant hills and colourful coastal

villages, of ancient towns huddled around and beneath their castle.

It is a coast rich in history, art, wildlife: the ‘Gulf of Poets’ so named

because so many writers came and sang its praises – Dante and

Petrarch, George Sand and D. H. Lawrence, Byron and Shelley (who

died while sailing from Livorno to the Gulf). You travel by coach to

Portovenere, the ‘Port of Venus’, on the west side of the Gulf (40 miles).

Ferry timetable and weather permitting, you cross back to the east

side of the Gulf by boat to meet your coach and continue to the hotel.

Isle of Elba, Siena & the Medieval Cities of Tuscany

Napoleon was famously banished to Elba – and what an extremely nice place to be exiled to! He was there for 300 days.

You spend three nights there before returning from exile to enjoy some of the most scenic landscapes and unspoiled,

walled cities anywhere! We focus on some of the less-discovered Tuscan cities, but you will also have time to visit mighty

Florence - easily accessible from your mainland base – too.

• 3 nights hb on Napoleon’s Isle of Elba • 4 nights bb Tuscany (1 Livorno, 3 Prato) • Visits to Siena and

Volterra • Walking tour of Prato • 2 sightseeing excursions on Elba, with entrance to Napoleon’s Villa Martino

PROGRAMME

Day One: Flight to Pisa. There is a short transfer to Livorno, Tuscany’s

second city, which has a Medici Fortress and mercantile ‘Little Venice’ area,

for one nights bed and breakfast accommodation.

Day Two: After breakfast, depart Livorno and head inland to Volterra, 45

miles away, an ancient walled town on a hilltop dominating the rolling

Tuscan countryside, with medieval and Renaissance buildings, Roman

theatre, forum and baths. D.H. Lawrence called Volterra ‘an inland island’;

it has a unique atmosphere and the popular vampire novel ‘New Moon’

(part of the Twilight Saga) was set here – and you can see why!

In the afternoon, you leave Volterra and drive to Piombino, 55 miles away,

to board the roll-on, roll-off ferry to Elba, less than 10 miles offshore – the

crossing takes just under an hour.

You continue the short distance to your hotel in Procchio for 3 nights half

board accommodation. Your hotel is in a quiet location on the beautiful bay

of Procchio on the north coast of the island, seven miles west of Portoferraio.

Days Three and Four: While in Procchio you have two included

excursions:

1 – Half day circular tour of western Elba, including a scenic drive around

the coast, passing through Zanca, Pomonte and Cavoli to Marino di Campo.

2 – Full day tour of eastern Elba, featuring Lacona, Porto Azzurro, Napoleon’s

Villa at San Martino, with time in Portoferraio, Elba’s main town, which has

a scenic harbour setting below its historic hilltop fortress.

Day Five: Today you leave Elba and return to mainland Tuscany. A stop

is made in Siena before continuing to the walled city of Prato where you

spend three nights on bed and breakfast basis (total today 150 miles).

Siena is best known as the city of the Palio Horse race, when the districts

of the city compete in a spectacular bareback horse race – the horse can

win for its district even if riderless at the finish! The race takes place on

the spectacular, shell-shaped Piazza del Campo, betopped by the 100m

high bell tower of the graceful Palazzo Publico. St Catherine of Siena is,

with St Francis, one of Italy’s two patron saints – her head was supposedly

smuggled out of Rome and is stored in the church of St Dominic. Don’t miss

the cathedral, one of Italy’s most stunning Gothic churches.

Prato is just 10 miles from Florence (frequent train services take 25

minutes) and is historic in its own right. Although Prato is an important

modern centre for textiles, the old town within the walls is a world apart – a

lovely place to stroll and enjoy the real Italy. Your hotel is just a few steps

from the town walls, so it’s easy to explore.

Days Six and Seven: There is an included half day walking tour of the old

city of Prato. After the tour, your Tour Director will accompany those who

wish to the equally impressive nearby city of Pistoia, where once again

the old city is close to the station and has a lovely cathedral square. On

the other day, again, your Tour Director will accompany those who wish to

Florence – arrival by train is at the conveniently central Santa Maria Novella

Station, close to the cathedral. The train journey time to both Pistoia and

Florence is approx. 20 minutes and the current fare is 5 euros return.

Day Eight: Free time until your transfer to the airport and your flight

home. Depending on flight times, there may be time for some last minute

shopping/sightseeing en route.

Apulia & Royal Caserta

Venture into the southern Adriatic region of Apulia on the heel of Italy and you will be well rewarded in terms of the natural

beauty of the landscapes and the richness of the heritage of a varied history. This holiday includes visits to no less than

five UNESCO World Heritage sites, all very different in character – the conical ‘trulli’ homes of Alberobello, the ancient stone

‘sassi’ houses of the Matera ravines, the Swabian castle of Castel del Monte, Santa Sofia in Benevento, and the Royal Palace

at Caserta. As well as staying in Caserta itself you also spend time in Barletta on the coast in Apulia. Travelling between the

two gives you the opportunity to see the Roman town of Benevento and to enjoy the countryside of the southern Apennines.

• 3 nights hb Caserta, 4 nights hb Barletta • Walking tour of Caserta and entrance to the Royal Palace

• Excursion to Trani and Castel del Monte • Visits to Alberobello, Matera and Benevento

PROGRAMME

Day One: Flight to Naples. On arrival, transfer to your hotel in Caserta (30

minutes approx) for one nights half board accommodation.

Day TWO: Depart for Barletta. Crossing the Apennines, your main stop

today is in the pleasant town of Benevento. It has a compact centre and

enjoyed prominence during three main periods, each of which left its mark

on the town. The Romans left Trajan’s Arch, and Caracalla’s theatre; after

the Romans, the Longobards left the cloistered church of Santa Sofia.

Benevento then became part of the Papal States and this period leaves us

two fine basilicas, Madonna delle Grazie and Saint Bartholomew.

In the afternoon, you continue into Apulia along the motorway, stretches of

which are very scenic as it wends its way through the southern Italian hills

as far as the Adriatic. 135 miles today. Four nights are spent in Barletta on

a half board basis.

Days THREE TO FIVE: In Barletta with two included excursions. A full day

excursion includes visits to Apulia’s capital city, Bari, with its 12th-century

cathedral of St Nicholas, a major destination for both Orthodox and Roman

Catholic pilgrimages. Nicholas’ relics were moved here from Turkey in the

11th century. Also called Nicholas the Wonderworker, he was known for

his generous giving and lends his name to the Santa Claus tradition. You

continue to Alberobello, into one of the most unusual landscapes you will

ever see, that of the trulli. These circular white houses have conical slate

roofs and are built without mortar – some say this was done so they could

be easily demolished and rebuilt if the tax collector was coming! In any

event, the thick walls help keep them cool in summer, warm in winter; they

are often decorated with planetary symbols. 146 miles today.

There is also a shorter but equally fascinating included tour to Trani and

Frederick II’s Castel del Monte. Trani is a particularly pleasant maritime town

with a fine cathedral and old quarter right on the azure sea. This was a

crusaders’ port and the Knights Templar built a church here. The geometry

at Castel del Monte is perfect : it consists of eight octagonal towers around

two rectangles which form another octagon – the ‘golden ratio’ is everpresent

as are the magic numbers of Fibonacci – the Pisa mathematician

who visited Frederick’s court. If these ring ‘da Vinci Code’ bells, then why not

add that Frederick (excommunicated twice and a Crusader) and his castle

have also been linked with the Arthurian legend and the Holy Grail! 50 miles

today.

DAY SIX Today you begin to head back towards Naples taking a different

road through Apulia. You go first to Matera, just outside Apulia in

neighbouring Basilicata. In the ravines which cut starkly through the town

are the primitive ‘sassi’ (stone) houses in which half the town’s populace

lived until the 1950’s, when they were forcibly moved to more modern

housing. The suffering of the malaria-ridden, starving people of the ‘sassi’

was immortalised in Carlo Levi’s ‘Christ stopped at Eboli’. From there you

head back to Caserta, passing by Potenza and Salerno, for two nights on a

half board basis. 233 miles today.

DAY SEVEN: Included Caserta walking tour with entrance to the Royal

Palace and its lovely gardens. Known as the Italian Versailles, the palace

has 1,200 rooms and is probably the largest royal palace in the world. It has

been used as a set for several movies, including two of the Star Wars films.

Outside, you can explore the park and formal English garden, with several

impressive water features.

Day eight: Free time till your transfer to the airport for your flight home.

A Week in Crete - No Single Supplement

This is a truly ‘laid-back’ holiday in Crete but with just the right amount of included visits to give you a flavour of what this

‘fabulous’ island, steeped as it is in Greek Mythology and ancient history, has to offer. From your holiday base in Gouves you

have two included day tours allowing you to really discover the wonderful history of the oldest civilisation in Europe and the

truly beautiful landscapes of this island. The Minoan Palace of Knossos, the open-air museum at Lychnostatis, wine-tasting, an

introduction to Cretan cooking – these are just a few of the highlights for you to enjoy. And when you’re not appreciating the

magnificent Cretan countryside there is plenty of time to relax and enjoy the facilities of your four-star hotel in Gouves.

• 7 nights hb in Kato Gouves in double rooms for single occupancy • Tour of Northern Crete countryside

• Traditional Crete and cooking excursion

PROGRAMME

Day One: Flight to Heraklion, short transfer to your hotel for seven

nights half board accommodation in the resort of Gouves.

Days Two to Seven: Free in Gouves with two included tours.

The Northern Crete Countryside. An excursion with a visit to Knossos

and wine-tasting! During this tour you will be taken back 4.000 years

to the time of the oldest civilisation in Europe. The Minoan Palace of

Knossos, centre of the Minoan Civilisation, will leave you breathless

as you wonder over the technology and facilities of that period. Then

experience a wonderful drive through the island’s hilly countryside

where the olive groves, orchards and vineyards have changed little

since Minoan times, before arriving at a local wine producer to learn

about winemaking and taste local wines. There is free time for lunch

and to see the day to day life in the traditional village of Archanes. 44

miles today.

Traditional Crete and cooking! After breakfast you visit the open-air

museum at Lychnostatis which offers an insight into authentic Cretan

life. In a guided tour you will marvel at Cretan architecture and the old

traditional lifestyle. You can stroll in the gardens and admire the fruit

trees and the bright coloured flowers. You then travel to a mountain

village for an introduction to Cretan cooking and learn to prepare some

Cretan specialities in the local style. As a reward for your efforts lunch

is included today! If you prefer to leave all your cooking skills at home

and not participate in the cooking workshop, the surroundings are

ideal for walking or a sit-down in a coffee house in the village and

meet the locals. 32 miles today.

As well as the included tours there will be a full-day optional tour

showcasing the history, culture and way of life, both in the mountains

and along the coast. You drive west to the village of Tylissos where

a short walk leads to the excavations of the Minoan settlement with

beautiful views over the vineyards to the mountains. After a guided

tour here, you continue by coach 2500ft up the slope of Mt. Psiloritis

to the market town of Anogia for a short visit. Next stop is the Sfedoni

Cave. A guided walking tour (270m) in this impressive cave reveals

countless stalagmites and stalactites with a variety of shapes and

colours in the labyrinthine chambers of the cave.

Another optional tour takes you to Southern Crete and the outskirts of

Mount Ida. In the village of Assites you discover an ancient technique,

while in Gortys, the Roman capital and stepping stone between East

and West, you see the famous law stones and the amphitheatre. In the

coastal village of Matala, once the place to be for hippies, you may

enjoy a refreshing swim in the Libyan Sea or a leisurely Cretan lunch

at a beach tavern.

Day Eight: Free time until departure for the airport and your flight

home.

Highlights of Crete – from Mirabello to Chania

The stunningly beautiful Bay of Mirabello, and the island of Spinalonga, will be familiar as the spectacular setting of ‘Who pays

the Ferryman?’ and, more recently, Victoria Hislop’s novel ‘The Island’. But Cretan landscapes are much more than that – with

olive groves, vines, sandy beaches, spectacular mountains and picturesque fishing harbours, all carrying tales of a fascinating

history and offering, just as importantly, warm hospitality. Crete, specifically Phaestos, is home to Europe’s oldest civilization,

that of the Minoans. Subsequently Romans, Venetians and Turks are an important part of Cretan tradition, too. This two-centre

holiday will show you a wide variety of scenery and visits, and all within very reasonable travel distances.

• 3 nights hb in Gouves, 4 nights hb in Rethymnon • Excursion to Agios Nikolaos, on the Gulf of Mirabello,

with boat trip and entrance to Spinalonga island • Visits to Eleftherna, Arkadi Monastery and Margarites

• Walking tour of Rethymnon • Excursion to Chania and the Botanical Park & Gardens with lunch

PROGRAMME

Day One: Flight to Heraklion. 20-minute transfer to your hotel in Gouves for three nights half

board accommodation.

Day TWO: At leisure in Gouves, or you can take an optional excursion in the afternoon to see

the ancient ruins of the Minoan Palace of Malia.

Day three: Full day excursion to the Gulf of Mirabello. This fabulous day begins with a trip

through the spectacular St George ravine to the village of Kritsa, a whitewashed mountain

village with brightly-coloured doors and shutters, famous for its woven handicrafts and its

Byzantine church. You then continue to the picturesque port of Agios Nikolaos. Here you have

free time over lunch to stroll around the Marina and Lake Vouliagmeni. Your trip continues to

the town of Elounda from where you take a 20-minute boat trip across to the Venetian fortress

island of Spinalonga which was a leper colony for the first half of the 20th century. After a

guided tour of the island you return to your hotel. 72 miles today.

Day four: Today you leave for Rethymnon in the west. First stop today is the remarkable

Eleftherna Museum, Crete’s newest archaeological attraction. Opened in June 2016, this

impressive museum houses exhibits discovered over a thirty year period in the surrounding

area. The next stop is the Arkadi Monastery. There are still hundreds of working monasteries

and convents around Crete and, as well as performing religious, social and educational

functions, monasteries have been an important symbol of Cretan resistance during the

centuries of Turkish rule. Arkadi is the best known because of the massacre which took place

there in 1866. You then have time in the pretty village of Margarites which is famous for its

pottery workshops still using ceramic techniques from the Minoan period. Arrival at your hotel

in Rethymnon, where you have four nights half board accommodation, will be late afternoon.

100 miles today.

Rethymnon has a pleasant beach and resort area, but by contrast with your first centre, is

quite a large town, with 40000 inhabitants, including a sizeable student population. It has an

impressive Venetian fortress and harbour, and some interesting museums.

Day five: Included morning walking tour of Rethymnon. Walk into town with your guide via

the promenade through the charming old quarter to the Venetian harbour, and then through

narrow streets and squares with Turkish and Venetian architecture. During this pleasant walk

you’ll see in a local workshop how the Cretan musical instrument, the ‘lyra’, is made and, at a

pastry shop, how to make the wafer-thin phyllo dough for traditional pastries.

Days six and seven: At leisure in Rethymnon, with an included excursion to explore the

varied landscapes of the west of the island. Your excursion to the west begins with a drive to

Chania. The pearl of Crete, Chania, with its two harbours and historical city centre, is a little

Alexandria in Europe. On a walking tour you see the covered market, the ghetto and Jewish,

Christian, Muslim quarters of the city. The lighthouse of the king of Egypt Mehmet Ali stands

at the entrance of the old city’s harbour. Chania like the whole island of Crete is drenched in

history. From here you have a coach transfer to the Botanical Park and Gardens of Crete. Here

you can walk the peaceful trails along the hill slope with herbs, shrubs and trees from all over

the world. But don’t be late for your included lunch in the beautiful restaurant with magnificent

views across to the mountains! 106 miles coach travel today.

There is also the chance to take an optional excursion to Southern Crete. You visit Phaestos,

the second largest Minoan Palace in Crete, on a hill and overlooking the olive trees and

greenhouses of the Messara Plain. Your lunchtime break is at the seaside village of Matala. It

still retains the charm and character of a quiet fishing village, and the laid-back, hippy lifestyle

of the 60’s and 70’s lives on. Here, you can have a dip in the Libyan Sea and still have time

for a leisurely Cretan lunch at a beach tavern. On the way back to your hotel you stop in the

mountain village of Spili to see the Kefalovrisi, a series of 25 Venetian lions heads spraying

water from their mouths.

Day eight: Free time until your departure for the airport, just over an hour away. Depending

on flight timings, there may be time for some last-minute sightseeing en-route.

Crete’s Beautiful West

Western Crete, with its beautiful land and seascapes, tranquil countryside and mountain vistas, is a delightful holiday

destination. You’ll enjoy an included trip to Chania and Souda Bay on the north coast. Another trip takes you inland to

a winery and an olive oil farm, while on a tour to the south-west coast you’ll see the Chrisoskalitissa Convent and the

amazing beach at Elafonissi. Your holiday base is the seaside resort of Platanias near Chania.

• 7 nights hb in Platanias • Walking tour of Chania • Visit to Souda Bay WWII cemetery and Roman Aptera

• Excursion to the Gonias Monastery and olive oil and wine tasting • Tour to the west coast

PROGRAMME

Day One: Flight to Chania. 40-minute transfer to your hotel in Platanias

for seven nights half board accommodation.

Day TWO: At leisure in Platanias. Seven miles west of Chania, Platanias

is a busy resort with a long beach, small harbour and interesting old

quarter with fine views over the coast.

Days three to SEVEN: There are three included excursions.

Chania, Souda Bay & Aptera: The tour starts with a 30-minute drive

east to the ancient village of Aptera. The site has been occupied for

nearly 3,500 years and there are remains of a Roman theatre, 12thcentury

monastery and an Ottoman fortress. There are wonderful

views across Souda Bay where you head next for a short visit to the

Allied War Cemetery on the water’s edge, final resting place for 1,500

casualties of the Battle of Crete in 1941. You then continue to Chania

for a tour of Crete’s most pleasant city. During a guided walking tour

you see the covered market, the Venetian harbour with its Turkish

mosque, and the Jewish, Christian, and Muslim quarters of the city.

You then have free time for lunch before returning to Platanias in the

early afternoon. Or you can stay on in Chania and make your way back

on the local bus. Just 34 miles on the coach today.

Gonias Monastery, olive oil and wine: You first visit is a guided tour

of the fortified Gonias Monastery in an ideal spot at the foot of the

Rhodopos Peninsula. Within the walled complex are monks’ cells,

refectory and stores, and a superb collection of icons in the church.

Inland from here is the Vouves olive tree. Estimated to be 4,000 years

old, it still bears fruit and has its own museum! From this ancient

spot you continue to a modern olive oil and wine estate for a tour and

tasting. You have free time for lunch in the pleasant coastal village of

Kolymbari before returning to Platanias. 35 miles today.

The West Coast: This is a scenic full-day excursion down to the extreme

south-west of the island. After travelling west along the coast, you turn

inland and follow the mountain road to Polyrenia from where there are

panoramic views down to the sea. Now it’s just a small village, but you

will see scattered ruins which are evidence of the former importance

of the ancient city of Polyrenia from the Dorian period through to

Roman times. From here your route takes you through green, lush but

spectacular scenery through the Topolia Gorge, and over the mountains

down to the white-painted Chrisoskalitissa Convent perched on a 120

ft. rock above the Libyan Sea. Its name means ‘golden-stepped’, and

if you can manage the 98 steps to the top you will be rewarded with

a fabulous view. It’s then just a ten-minute drive to the pink sand of

Elafonissi where you have free time to grab a snack and wade in the

lagoon. 100 miles today.

During your free time you can take the regular bus into Chania, join an

optional excursion, or just spend time in Platanias.

Day eight: Free time until your departure for the airport for your

return flight home.

The Slovenian Alps, Lake Bled, Trieste & Venice

A tasty combination of Italian cities and coast with the mountains of the Julian Alps in Slovenia. The coast comes in the shape

of the long sandy beaches of Lido di Jesolo . Two Italian port cities – the first is Venice, queen of the Adriatic, and the second is

Trieste, perhaps not as Italian as you might think as it was the major maritime hub for the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Kranjska

Gora is your mountain home for a few days – at 2500ft rising to over 9000ft in the Alps near the Austrian and Italian borders.

• 3 nights hb on the Venetian coast, 4 nights hb in the Slovenian Alps • Included excursions to Lake Bled

and to the Carinthian lakes in Austria • Visits to Venice, James Joyce’s Trieste and Udine

PROGRAMME

Day One: Flight to Venice or Treviso airports. Transfer to your hotel (40

minutes from Venice airport, one hour from Treviso) for two nights half board

accommodation in Lido di Jesolo, a resort town with 10 miles of beach.

Day Two: After breakfast, you set off for a full day excursion to nearby

Venice. There is a 40-minute coach transfer to Punta Sabbioni for the scenic

boat trip across the lagoon – you arrive close to Piazza San Marco. After a

walking tour with local guide, you will have time to explore the world’s most

romantic city, the city of canals and islands. You return to your hotel, again

by boat and coach, in time for dinner.

Day Three: Today you drive east towards the border with the former

Yugoslavia. Your main stop today is Trieste, once the major port of the

Habsburg Austro-Hungarian Empire. While the maritime republic of Venice

was the most important sea-trading centre of late medieval Europe,

Trieste’s docks and dockyards were the outlet to the sea for the mighty

Austrian Empire until WWI. After WWII, it was carved up between Italy and

Yugoslavia, the main city being Italian. The wide avenues, squares and

baroque buildings date from the early 18th century. Your entry into Trieste is

an unusual one: a 25-minute ride on the hybrid tram and funicular railway

from Vila Opicina, which descends 326m, with great views as it goes,

and arrives right in the heart of the old city of fine buildings and spacious

squares. You will have a guided tour of the town – have your photo taken

with the statue of James Joyce (who lived, wrote and drank here for 10

years) – and visit the ornate, beautiful Miramare Castle, seat of Maximilian

from the time of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and with stunning sea views

– as its name would suggest. You cross into Slovenia and head for the

mountain resort of Kranjska Gora in the Upper Sava Valley, for four nights

half board accommodation. 218 miles today.

Days Four to Six: Free in Kranjska Gora to enjoy the dazzlingly beautiful

valley with two included excursions.

The first excursion is to Lake Bled and the Slovenian capital city of Ljubljana

(or, if you prefer, spend the whole day at Lake Bled). Just half an hour away

from Kranjska Gora is the shimmering magic of the lake. You can spend

the whole day visiting the famous castle and the very pretty 15th-century

church on Bled Island and relaxing. Or, after time for a coffee and a stroll,

you can continue to Slovenia’s capital, with its town hall, cathedral, castle,

parks and old quarter. Ljubljana was a Habsburg city, and evidence of this

period can be seen in its skyline although many buildings were destroyed

in the earthquake of 1895. Nowadays the architecture is a pleasant blend

of Baroque, Art Nouveau and the wonderful buildings and bridges of Jože

Plecnik. After a walking tour and boat ride through the city, you have free

time until you return to Lake Bled and thence to Kranjska Gora. 120 miles

return to Ljubljana, 50 miles return to Lake Bled.

The second excursion is over the border to the Austrian region of Carinthia -

a land of azure lakes, set before a backdrop of alpine splendour and unspoilt

towns and villages. You will see three lakes – Faakersee, Ossiachersee,

and Worthersee, where you will have time to explore the lakeside town of

Velden. 74 miles today.

Day Seven: Today you leave Slovenia for Italy. You cross the border and

head to Udine, an interesting city with a long history. A Roman city in origin,

it stands at a crossroads of languages and cultures: a mix of Italian, Slav and

German elements, with a castle and stunning, marble, Romanesque Duomo.

From there you continue back to Lido di Jesolo for one nights half board

accommodation. 153 miles today.

Day Eight: Transfer to the airport for your return flight.

The Best of the Baltics - Riga, Tallinn & National Parks of Latvia & Estonia

Being 1 ½ times the size of the Benelux countries, Latvia and Estonia have a combined population of under four million, so there is

lots of space for the ‘great outdoors’, much beloved by the locals. This holiday includes a visit to a National Park in both countries.

But where there’s a coast there is trade and the Baltic gives us two of Europe’s most vibrant and colourful capitals. Riga and

Tallinn have a history of being open to the outside world – both were members of the great Hanseatic League, channels for trade

between Eastern and Western Europe, from the 13th century. There’s also the chance to hop across the Baltic to visit Helsinki.

• 3 nights bb Riga, 4 nights bb Tallinn • Visit to the resort of Pärnu • Visit to Sigulda, in the Gauja National Park, with lunch

• Walking tours of Riga and Tallinn • Excursion to Lahemaa National Park, with entrance to Palmse Manor and lunch

PROGRAMME

Day One: Flight to Riga, Latvia. Transfer to your hotel (20-minutes) for one night’s

bed and breakfast accommodation. Riga is a city of contrasts. While there are

hints of WWII damage and Soviet restoration, the UNESCO-protected Old Riga

with fine buildings and a maze of cobbled streets and squares remind us of

its medieval origins and its concentration of art nouveau architecture is unique.

Don’t miss the 13th-century Dome cathedral, the biggest Church in the Baltics,

or the Blackheads’ house, where the tradition of the Christmas tree supposedly

originated – they covered a tree in flowers and then burned it, thankfully that

part didn’t catch on! Nearby is the Art Nouveau centre, with no less than 750

flamboyant twentieth-century buildings, more than anywhere else, festooned

with goddesses and griffins, gargoyles and goblins, plants and flowers – many

the creation of Mikhail Eisenstein, father of the great cinematographer, Sergei.

DAY TWO: Depart after breakfast for Tallinn in Estonia. The main stop today is

the pine-forested Gauja National Park forty miles outside Riga. Your tour in the

park includes the ruins of the medieval castle of Sigulda, the fairy-tale red-brick

castle of Turaida which has not just excellent views but also an interesting range

of attractions in the castle grounds, and Gutman’s cave where your guide will tell

you the tragic love story of the Turaida Rose. After an included lunch in a chalet

restaurant in the park you head north to Tallinn, a further 182 miles away for four

nights bed and breakfast accommodation.

Tallinn: Whereas Riga has a slightly post-Communist feel to it, Tallinn – for all

that it has its superbly pretty old town – feels much more Western. There is some

enormous Russian-built architecture, but the modern business district seems

almost American in its embrace of capitalism, and the Estonians certainly feel

closer to Finland and the west than to anywhere else. Finland, after all, is just

a couple of hours across the Gulf – the Gulf that featured the sailing during

the 1980 Moscow Olympics. Tallinn’s Old Town lies within the city walls, and is

an atmospheric place to stroll. Old merchant houses line the medieval cobbled

streets, and hidden courtyards and impressive churches abound. Not far outside

the old town are some very interesting museums: the futuristic Kumu Art Museum,

the Ethnographic Open Air Museum, with an interesting collection of old cottages

relocated from elsewhere in Estonia, and the impressive new Seaplane Museum,

located in an enormous old Russian hangar. There is also a small KGB museum,

located on the 23rd floor of the old Soviet Hotel – a floor which officially did not

exist, but from where the KGB could keep a close eye on all the foreign guests!

DAYS THREE TO FIVE: At leisure in Tallinn with two included excursions. One is

a half day city tour of Tallinn, partly by coach and partly on foot through the old

town. The other is a full day excursion to Lahemaa. An hour away eastwards

along the northern Baltic coast towards Russia, the Lahemaa National Park (the

first in the Soviet Union when it was designated in 1971) boasts a rich variety of

flora and fauna, as well as fine coastal and rural landscapes. You will also visit

Palmse Manor, with its large estate and varied attractions. Lunch is included in

a thatched tavern. An optional excursion is also available to Helsinki. Finland’s

capital is just two hours across the water. Helsinki has a long waterfront, and

indeed the whole city seems to hover around a series of water-features – lakes,

bays and inlets. There are several interesting museums and some impressive art

nouveau buildings. You will have a walking tour and free time to explore as well.

DAY SIX: Depart Tallinn for Riga. You break the journey in Parnu, Estonia’s

foremost seaside resort. The main street, Ruutli, is pedestrianised with shops

and cafes. Just off Ruutli is St Catherine’s Russian Orthodox church, regarded

as Estonia’s finest baroque church. Built in 1768, it is named after Catherine

the Great and still serves Parnu’s Russian speaking population. After Parnu, you

continue to Riga for two night’s bed and breakfast accommodation. 195 miles

today.

DAY SEVEN: Morning half-day walking tour of old Riga followed by a scenic drive

through the Art Nouveau district of Riga. The rest of the day is free.

DAY EIGHT: Free time until you depart for the airport and your return flight home.

March & November

A Week on Evia – No Single Supplement

This is the chance to enjoy some Greek winter sunshine and culture on Greece’s second largest island – Evia. The island has stunning mountain scenery,

green, fertile plains, and of course, beautiful beaches and coastline. Your holiday base is the Hotel Miramare three miles from the small port of Eretria. The

area is known for its rich agriculture and importance as an ancient military and commercial centre going back to the 9th century BC. As well as having

plenty of time to relax and enjoy your surroundings, there is an included excursion to the north of the island, and another to Athens during your stay.

• 7 nights hb in double rooms for sole use near Eretria • Full-day excursion to Athens with a guided tour of

the Acropolis • Scenic tour of the north of Evia and the spa town of Edipsos

PROGRAMME

Day One: Flight to Athens and transfer to your hotel near Eretria on Evia

for seven nights’ half-board accommodation. Transfer time is around 75

minutes.

Although Evia is an island, it is only 45 yards away from the mainland

at its closest point at Chalkida. However, roads on Evia are few and far

between and the island has largely retained its distinct rural and remote

character, escaping major tourist development, despite its proximity to

Athens. Your hotel is three miles from the centre of Eretria, a small port

twelve miles down the coast from Chalkida. Eretria was a strong military

power and had colonies in Italy and Corfu. Evidence of its rich past has

been revealed by excavations starting in the 1890’s including a theatre,

temple of Dionysus, and mosaics. Eretria’s Archaeological Museum has

a fine collection of ancient pottery and sculpture.

Days Two TO SEVEN: At leisure in resort with two included excursions.

Athens: Coach transfer to Athens (63 miles). Your day in Athens starts

with a panoramic tour passing by the most important monuments and

landmarks of the city – including the Panathinaikon stadium (the marble

stadium where the first modern Olympics took place in 1896); the former

Royal Palace which is now the Prime Minister’s residence; the Temple

of Zeus; Hadrian’s Arch; the Parliament and the tomb of the unknown

soldier guarded by the colourful Evzones; Schliemann’s’ house; the

Academy, the University, the National Library, and the old Parliament.

The panoramic part of the tour ends at the Acropolis where you have a

guided visit which will include the Propylaea, the Temple of Athena Nike,

the Erechtheion and, of course, the Parthenon. You walk through the

Herodion and Dionysos theatres to the Acropolis Museum for a guided

visit. You then have free time for lunch and to stroll through the cobbled

streets in Plaka at the foot of the Acropolis.

Northern Evia & Edipsos: A spectacular tour through the beautiful

mountain range and forests of Evia to Edipsos, 82 miles away in the

north of the island. On the way, there is a stop at the village of Prokopi,

home to the pilgrimage site of the church of Saint John the Russian. From

there, you drop down to the sea and with superb views of the coastline to

the grand spa town of Edipsos. In Greek myth, the hot baths here were

created by Hephaestus, the God of Fire, for Hercules so he could relax

after his exploits. Roman emperors and generals took the cure here, and

more recently, such luminaries as Winston Churchill, Aristotle Onassis,

and Greta Garbo. Mineral waters with temperatures ranging from 28° to

86°C gush from springs throughout the town, including one on the beach.

You’ll have free time in Edipsos to enjoy a walk in the narrow streets or

on the promenade lined with taverns and coffee shops. To complete the

circular journey, you take the ferry from Edipsos for a pleasant cruise

across the gulf to Arkitsa on the mainland and then take the highway

back to the hotel. Although it is only 180 miles round trip, it is a full day

including a very scenic drive and ferry trip.

In your free time, you can relax and enjoy your surroundings at the

hotel. As well as having pleasant gardens, the hotel has an underground

walkway to the sea. You can hop on the local bus from outside the

hotel for the short trip to Eretria and visit the archaeological sites and

musuem, and stroll along the promenade or among the pine trees on the

Pezonisi islet. Or maybe go to the port and take the 20-minute ferry ride

for a couple of euros to Oropos on the mainland. Staying on the bus for

another twenty minutes brings you to Chalkida, the island’s lively capital

where there are good shops in the pedestrian area, a Roman aqueduct,

a former mosque dating back to the 15th century, and an impressive

castle. Going in the other direction on the bus from the hotel three miles

down the coast, you can admire the Byzantine churches in the town of

Amarynthos.

There will also be optional excursions on offer (subject to minimum

numbers as always) including a full-day to Delphi, and a half-day through

the mountains of central and east Evia to Kymi, known as the ‘Balcony of

the Aegean’ because of the panoramic views.

Day Eight: Departure transfer to the airport for your flight home.

yOUr hOTeL

hOTeL MIrAMAre HHHH, Eretria (seven nights)

A family-owned hotel on the coast three miles from Eretria surrounded by

groves and orchards. The hotel has extensive, lush gardens, two outdoor

hotel entrance and goes to Eretria (3miles) and then on to Chalkida (12

miles). There is also an inexpensive taxi service available from the hotel.

June & September

Krakow, Zakopane & the High Tatras

Two of Poland’s most spectacular sites, Krakow and Zakopane, are brought together in this holiday of contrasts. The

medieval university city of Krakow, for centuries Poland’s capital, is combined with Zakopane, Poland’s highest city, set

amidst the spectacular Tatra Mountains.

• 3 nights bb in Krakow, 4 nights bb in Zakopane • Walking tours of both cities • Spectacular raft journey

through the Dunajec gorge, in the Pieninski National Park

PROGRAMME

Day One: Flight to Krakow, short transfer to your hotel in Krakow for

three nights bed and breakfast accommodation.

Days Two and Three: Free in Krakow with an included half-day

walking tour. Krakow is a very special place to visit. With over a

thousand years of history, it is Poland’s cultural capital and is, of course,

on the UNESCO World Heritage list. In the Middle Ages, Krakow’s walls

had 55 defensive towers. The 14th century main gate survives and is

the starting point of the ‘Royal Road’, which ends at Wawel Castle, and

passes by the Town Square, St. Mary’s Basilica and the Czartoryski

Museum. They claim the museum contains fragments from the grave

of Romeo and Juliet, as well as the chair Shakespeare sat on to write

about them!

Krakow is also a university city – the Jagiellonian, one of Europe’s

oldest, dates from 1364 and boasts many illustrious alumni including

Karol Józef Wojtyła – better known to us as Pope John Paul II.

You can also join an optional excursion to nearby Wieliczka Salt Mine

and Auschwitz. Salt has been mined at Wieliczka since the 13th century.

The result of centuries of mining is a huge network of underground

passages, corridors and chambers whose crowning jewel is Kinga’s

Chapel, 600ft underground and carved entirely out of rock salt – even

the chandeliers are made of salt! From 14th June 1940 until January

1945, Auschwitz Concentration Camp was the site of some of the worst

atrocities of WWII. The visit includes a film showing the liberation of

the camp and the chance to see the infamous Death wall, the national

memorials and the cells where the inmates were held. Over 1.1 million

people are thought to have died at Auschwitz and the visit is both

moving and thought-provoking.

Day Four: Today you travel to Zakopane. It may only be 63 miles from

Krakow by road, but you spend 2-3 hours rafting gently through the

stunning scenery of the Dunajec River Gorge, in the Pieninski National

Park. Two hours from Krakow lies the village of Sromowce, on the

Slovakian border, where you embark your rafts, which are operated

by experienced raftsmen wearing traditional local costume. The gentle

Dunajec River offers sightseeing as you go – you will see the 13th

century Red Monastery and the gorge itself, with its spectacular

limestone cliffs and rock formations. You disembark in the spa town

of Szczawnica, and after some free time, continue to Zakopane

(35 miles), arriving late afternoon for four nights bed and breakfast

accommodation.

Days Five to Seven: Free in Zakopane, with an included walking

tour. Zakopane lies in the heart of the Tatra Mountains, a mountain

range that many people believe to be among the most beautiful in the

world. The scenery is spectacular and the mountains impressive – they

were shaped by glacial erosion, which helps to explain the magnificent

peaks, lakes and valleys. The Tatra National Park was created in 1955

and hosts abundant flora and fauna, including bears and golden eagles.

You can also join an optional excursion across the border into Slovakia,

Poland’s southern neighbour. You go to Stary Smokovec, from where a

cable car leaves for the mountain town of Hrebienok, 4000ft up and site

of several waterfalls.

Day Eight: Transfer to the airport for your flight home. Depending on

your flight time you may have time for some last minute shopping in

Krakow. Please note: throughout the tour you are on a bed and breakfast

basis. There is a wide variety of lunch and dinner options available in all

price ranges in Krakow and Zakopane and the other places you visit.

Bucharest & Transylvania

The marbled halls of the Palace of Parliament in Bucharest, the charming baroque streets of medieval Brasov, the imposing

pointed towers in Vlad the Impaler’s Sighisoara, the spectacular scenery of the Transylvanian Alps – these are just some of the

highlights of this fascinating tour of Romania. On this holiday you’ll find that the bustling capital Bucharest contrasts superbly

with the fortified churches and forbidding castles of Transylvania, while Brasov will reveal the Saxon heritage of this part of

Romania. There’s also the chance to visit the old cultural centre of Sibiu.

• 3 nights bb in Bucharest and 4 nights bb in Brasov with one dinner • Tour of Bucharest with entrance

to the Palace of Parliament • Excursion to Sighisoara and Prince Charles’ Viscri • Tours of Bran and Peles

castles and Pelisor Palace • Excursion to the fortified churches of Harman and Prejmer

PROGRAMME

Day One: Flight to Bucharest, transfer to your hotel in the centre of the city for two nights bed

and breakfast hotel accommodation. There are plenty of restaurants in downtown Bucharest to

suit all tastes and budgets. Your Tour Director will be on hand to assist.

Day Two: Mid-morning walking tour of Bucharest. Romania’s cosmopolitan capital is well

known for its wide boulevards and fine pre-World War I buildings that gave it the name of

Little Paris. The tour will concentrate on the Old Town and the Calea Victoriei - Bucharest’s

most famous avenue which leads to the beautiful Romanian Athenaeum, the Royal Palace

and Revolution Square. Bucharest is also known for its stark Communist-era architecture,

exemplified in Ceausescu’s monster House of the Republic, now known as the Palace of

Parliament. A guided tour will show you some of 1,100 rooms of the world’s largest civilian

administrative building.

Day Three: Travel north through the Southern Carpathians to Brasov, stopping en route at

Bran Castle. On a rocky outcrop guarding the entrance to a mountain pass, Bran Castle lives

up to the Gothic fairytale image that Bram Stoker’s Dracula evokes. The castle was built by

the Saxons in the late 14th century to defend Brasov from invasion by the Turks. Inside you’ll

find displays of rich Western European furniture, which Queen Marie, granddaughter of Queen

Victoria, purchased in the 1920s when the castle was used as a royal residence. Continue to

Brasov (126 miles today) for four nights bed and breakfast with dinner in a local restaurant

this evening. Arrival in Brasov will be late afternoon. Your Tour Director will conduct a short

orientation walk of Brasov before dinner.

Days Four to six: In Brasov. Brasov is a medieval town with ornate Saxon churches and

townhouses. Local legend has it that when the Pied Piper lured away the children from Hamelin

they re-emerged near Brasov’s main square, Piata Sfatului, in the heart of the medieval quarter.

It is one of the finest Baroque squares in Romania. Here you can visit the 15th century Town

Hall, with its quaint Trumpeter’s Tower on top, and the Lutheran Black Church - the largest

Gothic church between Vienna and Istanbul with a 6-tonne bell and a huge organ with 4000

pipes. The Romanian School Museum displays some of the first textbooks written in the

Romanian language and printed in Brasov.

There are two included excursions during your stay in Brasov. One is a full day trip to the

birthplace of Vlad the Impaler, Sighisoara 81 miles away. Sighisoara was fortified by the Saxon

guilds – the Blacksmiths’, Butchers’ and Cobblers’ are among the defensive towers which still

survive and the beautifully preserved medieval citadel is on the UNESCO World Heritage List.

In the belfry of the imposing Clock Tower which dates back to the 13th century, a drummer

strikes every hour and every day at midnight a different wooden figure emerges. Close to the

Clock Tower you’ll find the house where Vlad Dracul was born. On the return journey to Brasov,

you’ll make a stop at Viscri where the Prince of Wales bought, restored and converted traditional

dwellings into guesthouses.

The second excursion is a pleasant half-day visit nearby to Harman and Prejmer. Under

continuous threat of marauding Mongols and Turks, the Saxons not only fortified their towns,

but the villages as well with defensive works centred around the church. Two fine examples are

in Harman, where the church is surrounded by a 40ft wall with seven towers and Prejmer where

the church defences include bastions, drawbridges and over 270 rooms built into the outer

wall in four storeys as refuge for the village’s families in times of attack. (25-mile round trip).

There is also an optional excursion to Sibiu including lunch, the largest of the Saxon merchant

towns. As well as a trade centre, Sibiu has always been the artistic and cultural capital of

Transylvania. The former wealth of the city is evident in its grand squares, fine buildings and

churches. 180 miles round trip.

Day Seven: Return to Bucharest. The main stop today is the resort of Sinaia in the Bucegi

Mountains 31 miles south of Brasov. Sinaia had a monastery and little else until the 1870’s

when King Carol I built a summer residence here. His ornate Peles Castle, built in German

Renaissance style, is richly decorated with carved wood, tapestries and oriental ceramics. Next

door is the Art Nouveau Pelisor Palace, built by King Carol for his nephew and consort. After a

tour of both the Castle and the Palace you have free time to visit the resort and for lunch before

continuing to Bucharest (a further 90 miles) for your last night on a bed and breakfast basis.

Day eight: Departure for the airport and your flight home.

June & September

Lithuania – Vilnius, Kaunas & Klaipeda

Lithuania is a land of folklore and legend which, towards the end of the Middle Ages, was one of the largest countries in Europe, stretching from the Baltic

down to the Black Sea, encompassing what is now Belarus and Ukraine. Modern Lithuania is just half the size of England, and this holiday is an exploration

of the country from its Baroque capital, Vilnius, across to Klaipeda on the coast, and the medieval and Art Deco city of Kaunas in the centre. You’ll also travel

down the remarkable Curonian Spit as far as the border with Russian Kaliningrad, and visit the emotive monument of the Hill of Crosses.

• 3 nights bb in Vilnius, 2 nights bb in Klaipeda, 2 nights bb in Kaunas • 3 lunches • City tours of Vilnius, Klaipeda and Kaunas

• Excursion to Trakai Castle • Tour of the Curonian Spit • Visits of the Palanga Botanical Gardens, and the Hill of Crosses

PROGRAMME

Day One: Flight to Vilnius or Kaunas. Transfer to your hotel in Vilnius for three nights’ bed and

breakfast accommodation. Transfer times are 15 minutes from Vilnius airport and 1 hour 15

minutes from Kaunas airport.

Day TWO: Half-day sight-seeing tour of Vilnius. A panoramic tour by coach includes a visit of the

Baroque Church of St. Peter and St. Paul. This is followed by a walking tour of the atmospheric

Old Town and its countless Baroque buildings. The cobbled streets are a delight to explore. The

colonnaded Cathedral, like St. Peter and St Paul, is built on a former pagan site of worship (Lithuania

was the last country in Europe to convert to Christianity). Entrance is included to Vilnius University.

Housed in a collection of court-yarded precincts, the old university, dating from the 16th century, is

among the world’s top-ranked.

Day THREE: Half-day excursion to Trakai Castle. Just sixteen miles from Vilnius, set on an island

amid a beautiful wooded lake district, is Trakai Castle – symbol of Lithuania’s former military

dominance. The castle is reached via a 300-metre wooden walkway across the water from the

town of Trakai. The renovated castle was originally built in the 14th and 15th centuries and consists

of defensive walls with red turrets surrounding a huge central keep. After a guided tour, you return

to Vilnius where the afternoon is for you to enjoy shops, cafes and museums of the lively capital.

Day FOUR: Depart for Klaipeda, 195 miles away. You leave the flatlands of the east and cross rolling

plains on your way to the Baltic Sea. On arrival in Klaipeda you have an included lunch in a local

restaurant before checking-in to your hotel in the early afternoon for two nights’ bed and breakfast

accommodation. In the late afternoon, there is a guided tour of Klaipeda. Both the history and

geography of Klaipeda is complicated. If you sense a Germanic feel to the town, it’s because it was

part of Prussia in its various forms, and then part of Germany until the end of WWI, and re-annexed

by Hitler in 1939. An old Hanseatic port, Klaipeda (or Memel, as it was known) has always been

the region’s major maritime gateway. Although it is still an important industrial hub, the compact

Old Town has a vibrant café scene, restaurants and museums. As for the unusual geography of the

region, you have to wait until tomorrow!

Day FIVE: Full-day tour of the Curonian Spit. Unique in Europe, the Spit is a 65-mile long, narrow

strip of sand dunes, formed over the millennia by the wind and sea, creating the lagoon between

the coast proper and the Baltic. It stretches from Klaipeda to the Russian exclave of Kaliningrad and

is dotted with small resorts and fishing hamlets. The whole peninsula is a UNESCO-listed site. The

top half as far as Nida belongs to Lithuania and is a protected National Park. The day starts with a

ferry hop across to the isthmus for the drive down to Juodkrante, a genteel resort now known for

its sculpture park, the Witches’ Hill. The wooden exhibits portray Lithuanian legend and folklore,

reminding us of the region’s relatively recent pagan past. A short stop is then made by a cormorant

and grey heron colony before continuing to Nida near the Russian border. An old fishing village with

wooden houses, Nida has been a popular seaside retreat since the 19th century. Thomas Mann had

a summer home built here in the 1930’s. The sand dunes around Nida are particularly impressive,

with the Parnidis dune rising to 165 feet. After an included lunch, you have an hour-long cruise on

the lagoon for wonderful views of a wondrous landscape. Return to the hotel in the late afternoon.

65 miles round trip today.

Day SIX: Depart Klaipeda for Kaunas. The first stop is Palanga, Lithuania’s largest resort seventeen

miles up the coast. Here you visit the Botanical Gardens, landscaped in 1897 by Edouard Andre

who designed city parks in Paris, Bulgaria, and Madeira – an early masterpiece being Sefton

Park in Liverpool. You’ll also visit the fascinating Amber Museum in the Tyskiewicz Palace in the

Gardens before continuing eastward for an included lunch on your way to the Hill of Crosses. The

traditional folk art of ‘cross-crafting’ in Lithuania has been passed down the generations and you’ll

see many intricately carved crosses as you travel across the country. But nothing can prepare you

for the Hill of Crosses. This mound may have had a mystic significance in the pre-Christian era,

but the first crosses probably started appearing in the 1830’s as a focus for Lithuanian identity and

remembrance. The Russians bulldozed the hill three times during the Soviet occupation, but the

crosses just re-appeared. There are now in excess of 20,000 crosses on the hill. After your visit, you

continue to Kaunas for two nights’ bed and breakfast accommodation. 225 miles today.

Day SEVEN: Morning city tour including the Old Town and the Ninth Fort. A UNESCO City of Design,

Kaunas has a remarkable mixture of architectural styles ranging from Gothic, Renaissance, and

Baroque through to Modernist and Art Deco. With water on three sides, picturesque Kaunas Old

Town has an impressive Town Hall surrounded by churches, museums and merchants’ houses.

The New Town is bristling with architectural gems from the inter-war years when Kaunas was the

temporary capital. On the outskirts of the city, the Ninth Fort has been reconstructed as a museum.

Built during the occupation by Tsarist Russia, it became a prison and, later, a Nazi death camp.

Day EIGHT: Departure transfer to the airport for your flight home. Transfer time: 15 minutes to

Kaunas, and 1 ½ hours to Vilnius.

into a longer break, or e.g. stay behind in your destination country to visit friends, we

will try to assist and arrange special flight arrangements. Please note that for bookings

including special flight arrangements there will be an administration fee of £15 per

person, and the deposit payment (non-refundable) will be £250 per person.

HEALTH REQUIREMENTS AND TRAVEL ADVICE: There are no compulsory

health requirements for the countries we visit. For up to date UK government health

and travel advice please visit www.dh.gov.uk/ travellers (020 7210 4850) or check with

your GP, practice nurse or travel health clinic for advice. The Foreign & Commonwealth

Office provides up-to-date travel advice at www.fco.gov.uk/knowbeforeyougo

EUROPEAN HEALTH INSURANCE CARD (EHIC):The EHIC replaced the old E111

in 2006. Your EHIC lets you get state healthcare at a reduced cost or sometimes for

free. It will cover you for treatment that is needed to allow you to continue your stay

until your planned return. The card is not an alternative to travel insurance. It will not

cover any private medical healthcare or costs such as mountain rescue in ski resorts,

being flown back to the UK, or lost or stolen property. Therefore, it is important to have

both an EHIC and a valid private travel insurance policy. Most insurers now insist you

hold an EHIC. The EHIC is valid in all European Economic Area (EEA) countries. The

EEA is a free trade zone between countries of the European Union (EU), Iceland,

Norway and Liechtenstein. The regulations on access to healthcare in the EEA also

apply in Switzerland. Applying for an EHIC is free of charge. You can apply online at

www.ehic.org.uk or by phoning the automated service on 0300 3301350.

PASSPORTS/VISAS: Full British passport required. No visa requirements for UK

citizens. Nationals of other countries should consult the appropriate authorities. For

visits to countries in the EU, passports must be valid on the day of return, but you

should give yourself some leeway. Furthermore, requirements for countries outside the

EU vary so we suggest you have 6 months validity from the date of your return to cover

all eventualities. Please call us if you would like information about a specific country.

You must have a passport for travel to/from the UK. In case your passport is lost or

stolen overseas, a photocopy of the photograph page will be of help in obtaining an

emergency passport from the Consulate for return travel. Make sure you are insured

for the costs of obtaining an emergency passport. These will be the application fees but

may also include expensive transport costs getting to/from the Consulate.

YOUR FINANCIAL PROTECTION: All the flights and flight-inclusive holidays in this

brochure are financially protected by the ATOL scheme. When you pay you will be

supplied with an ATOL Certificate. Please ask for it and check to ensure that everything

you booked (flights, hotels and other services) is listed on it. Please see Clause 14 of

our booking conditions for further information or for more information about financial

protection and the ATOL Certificate go to: www.atol.org.uk/ATOLcertificate.

PRIVACY POLICY SUMMARY: Please be assured that we have measures in place

to protect the Personal Information we collect from you. Personal Information includes

your name, address, email address, telephone number, date of birth, passport details,

and any other information you provide, for example, a medical condition or dietary

requirement. We collect this information in order to provide the travel arrangements

you have booked. Where necessary, this information will be passed on to the relevant

suppliers of your travel arrangements including, but not limited to, airlines, hotels, land

and sea transport companies, our Tour Directors and Resort Representatives. Where

you have chosen to take and pay for travel insurance, we shall pass on your Personal

Information to the relevant insurance company. We shall only transfer the data we collect

from you outside the European Economic Area if your travel arrangements include such

a destination. Your Personal Information will also be provided to public authorities such

as customs or immigration if required by them, or as required by law. We shall retain

your Personal Information in order to deal with post-travel queries for the minimum

periods required by law. We may also send you from time to time details of our products

and services. If you do not want to receive such details in future, tick the box on the

Escorted Holidays Collection 2019

ABOUT US: Preferred Travel Services is an award winning, independently owned, friendly company whose two

directors share more than 60 years of travel industry experience and all this is put to use in designing holidays which

have just the right balance of included visits and free time to explore on your own. In 2019 we celebrate our 19th

birthday. Whichever holiday you choose, you’ll still have time to visit cities and places of interest in some of Europe’s

most picturesque countryside and beauty spots in the company of like-minded travellers from all over the UK.

EXTEND YOUR HOLIDAY: Holidays are of 7 nights duration, but if you would like to spend longer in warmer climes there is the option

of an extra week’s relaxation in Crete, Cyprus, Andalucia, Catalonia, the Algarve and Tenerife.

FLY DIRECT FROM LOCAL AIRPORTS: We offer holidays flying from over 20 airports across the UK – the vast majority are direct

flights. More and more of our customers are using our range of regional flights to meet up with friends and relatives from other parts of

the UK on our holidays – if you would like us to send a brochure to a friend, just ask... or they can download one at www.preferredts.

com.

GROUPS: Group discounts are available from as few as 10 paying passengers. Larger groups can have exclusive departures with

bespoke programmes to any destination in this Collection or elsewhere. Please contact us on 0116 279 3929 or e-mail groups@

preferredts.com for further details.

SIGN UP online for our occasional e-mailshots – just select e-mail sign up at www.preferredts.com and add your e-mail address!

READING LIST: Our website www.preferredts.com has a reading list, mostly light reading, suggested by previous travellers and related

to the destinations we offer. Please e-mail tony@preferredts.com if there is something you think we should add to it.

PTS PHOTO COMPETITION: Our photo competition introduced in 2017 continues to be a great success with hundreds of high-quality

entries, many of which have been posted on our website. Our third winner of the competition in June 2018 was Alan Keith for his spectacular

shot of Lake Balea in Romania while on a walking holiday. Thanks to everybody who entered and special thanks to those entrants with

images in this brochure: page 14 David Clark, Montserrat and, Dennis Walton, Santes Creus; page 24 – Gw Vaughan, trulli rooftops.

Escorted Holidays 2019

Dates, Prices and Flight Information

0116 279 3929

www.preferredts.com

Holiday Prices and Insurance Premiums

Prices shown are per person sharing a twin or double-bedded room. Supplements, including single room supplements, are shown for each holiday. The deposit

for each holiday is £125 per person (please refer to How to Book). Insurance premiums are £44.95 per person under the age of 80 at the date of departure for

holidays up to 10 days and £54.95 for two weeks.

Flights

We list all the airports available for each holiday. So if you have friends in other parts of the country who want to join you, you can check which is the best airport

for them. We are even able to arrange for a friend travelling from a different airport to share a twin/double room with you for the holiday! Just ask us. Please note

that while all airports are listed, by no means all of them will be used on the same date. Transfers to your hotel on arrival will be arranged by coach, minivan or

car as appropriate. In the tables which follow for each holiday, ‘Dep’ times are departure times from the UK airport and ‘Rtn’ times are when you land back.

Flight Timings, In-flight meals, and Baggage Allowances

Airlines and timings are subject to change. Please refer to Clause 6 of the Booking Conditions. Our brochures are printed some time in advance and, in some

cases, before the airline has published its timetable. In these cases timings shown are based on experience of previous years. While latest known flight timings

will be given at the time of booking these can change. Sometimes an airline will add a new route: when possible, we may add this to our programme. Sometimes

routes are withdrawn, in which case we will adjust our programme and offer alternatives if possible. In-flight meals are not included. One suitcase per person

(usually 20kgs) to be checked-in and carried in the hold is included in the holiday price. Cabin bag allowances in terms of size, weight and number vary from

airline to airline. Ryanair’s size limit for a cabin bag (40x20x25cm) is smaller than other airlines. It is possible to take on a larger cabin bag as well as the smaller

one by purchasing priority boarding. The cost currently (August 2018) is £16 per person return and is subject to availability. You should tell us at the time of

booking if you want to pay for this option. Precise information on baggage allowances will be sent with your travel documents 10-14 days before departure along

with your boarding passes for those airlines where we have checked you in on-line.

Seating Preferences on Flights (including seats together)

Specific seats, for example aisle or window seats, can be pre-booked at an extra cost. Otherwise, airlines will choose seats for you. While most airlines allocate

seats together on the same booking free of charge, this is not guaranteed, and you could be seated away from your travelling companion(s). Therefore, if you

have any seating preferences (including guaranteed seats together), it is important that you tell us when you book, and, in any event, at least four weeks before

your departure date. We shall tell you if your preferences can be accommodated and at what extra cost, if any. Please note that any requests received within four

weeks of your departure date may not be possible, even with payment of an extra cost.

HOW TO BOOK MADE EASY - RESERVATIONS HOTLINE: 0116 279 3929

We suggest you check availability and make a provisional booking before sending your booking form. Call our reservations hotline on 0116 279 3929 or

plus insurance premium if required to Preferred Travel Services, 41 High Street, Kibworth, Leicester, LE8 0HS. Please make cheques payable to

TRAVEL INSURANCE FOR BOOKINGS TAKEN UP TO 31 DECEMBER 2018

This information is subject to change without notice.

Travel insurance is a vital aspect to booking a holiday, giving you protection against unforeseen

circumstances that could otherwise spoil your holiday. It is important that you purchase travel

insurance that properly covers your participation in whatever activities you may undertake at the time

that you make your booking. To assist you with this, we have arranged travel insurance from Travel

& General Insurance Services Limited. Should you decide not to purchase our insurance, you must

provide us with details of your alternative insurance with your final payment.

The schedule of the cover opposite sets out a summary of the cover provided by our insurance.

Preferred Travel Services is a trading name of High Concepts Limited. High Concepts Limited is an

Appointed Representative of Travel & General Insurance Services Limited who are authorised and

regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority, firm number 304788. Further details can be found at

https://register.fca.org.uk or by calling 0800 111 6768.

THIS SUMMARY APPLIES TO PERSONS UNDER THE AGE OF EIGHTY YEARS AT THE DATE OF

DEPARTURE.

Premiums for persons under the age of 80 years at the time of departure are shown elsewhere in the

brochure. We regret cover is not available to persons aged over 80 years at the date of departure.

These details are correct as at 1 December 2017 and are subject to change without notice. As cover

under the Cancellation section commences immediately the holiday booking has been confirmed, no

refund in premium can be allowed. In the unlikely event that we have to cancel your holiday, any

insurance premiums paid to Preferred Travel Services will automatically be refunded. However, we

cannot refund premiums paid to other insurers. If you have arranged your own insurance please check

that the premium will be refunded in the event of cancellation by us.

Walking Holidays. Please check with your insurer if in doubt. Our travel insurance covers you for group

walks up to an altitude of 3000m. Some insurers have lower limits – usually 2000m. If you decide to

walk separately from our group, or if you have not taken out our insurance please ensure your cover

is valid.

Important declaration

An insurance policy can only provide cover in respect of an event/occurrence which is sudden,

unforeseen and beyond your reasonable control. Any facts known to you, which could possibly

result in you having to make a claim, must be disclosed otherwise you may not be covered. In

addition, anyone named under the policy must have read and understood the following relating to

Pre-Existing Medical Conditions which are defined as:

a) Any respiratory condition (relating to the lungs or breathing), heart condition, stroke, Crohn’s disease,

epilepsy, allergy, or cancer for which you (or any other person not necessarily travelling but upon

whom travel depends such as a Close Relative) have ever received treatment (including surgery,

tests or investigations by your doctor or a consultant/specialist, or prescribed drugs/medication).

b) Any Medical Condition for which you (or any other person not necessarily travelling but upon

whom travel depends such as a Close Relative) have received surgery, in-patient treatment or

investigations in a hospital or clinic within the last twelve months, or prescribed drugs/medication.

1. Have You or a Close Relative ever received treatment (including surgery, tests or investigations by

Your doctor, a consultant or specialist), or been prescribed drugs or medication for any respiratory

These Booking Conditions and the information in the brochure and our

website form the basis of your contract with Preferred Travel Services

(‘we’ and ‘us’). ‘You’ means the person making the booking (including

anyone who is added or substituted at a later date). References to

‘brochure’ in these conditions shall also include references to our

website.

1.Your contract – when you make a booking you guarantee that you

have the authority to accept and do accept on behalf of your party the

terms of these booking conditions. A contract will exist as soon as we

send our confirmation invoice. This contract is made on the terms of

these booking conditions, which are governed by English Law, and the

jurisdiction of the English Courts. You may however, choose the law

and jurisdiction of Scotland or Northern Ireland if you wish to do so.

2. Payment – in order to confirm your holiday, the appropriate deposit

must be paid at the time of booking. The balance of the holiday cost

must be received by the Balance Due Date which will be shown on our

confirmation invoice. The Balance Due Date is 8 weeks before departure

for Group A Holidays (holidays by air), 6 weeks before departure for

Group B Holidays (holidays with no flight of more than 4 days duration)

changeable after a reservation has been made and any alteration

request could incur a cancellation charge of up to 100% of that part

of the arrangements.

5. Cancellation by you – should you or a member of your party need to

cancel the holiday once it has been confirmed, you must immediately

advise us in writing. Notice of cancellation is only effective when

it is received in writing at our offices (see Date Received in the table

opposite). Since we incur costs in cancelling your travel arrangements,

you will have to pay cancellation charges in the table (shown as loss of

deposit up to the Balance Due Date and percentages of the total holiday

cost thereafter). Insurance premiums are non refundable.

any other relevant documents to us within 14 days of receipt and we will refund the premium in full,

we receive your cancellation in writing. Should one of the members of

your party cancel who is sharing a double/twin room, the relevant single

room supplement will become payable and added to your holiday cost.

6(a) If we cancel your holiday – we reserve the right to cancel your

booking. We will not cancel after the Balance Due Date has passed

(see clause 2) except for unavoidable and extraordinary circumstances,

or failure by you to pay the final balance, or because the minimum

been reached. Unavoidable and extraordinary circumstances means

a situation beyond our control, the consequences of which could not

have been avoided even if all reasonable measures had been taken.

If your holiday is cancelled you can either have a refund of all monies

paid or accept an alternative holiday of comparable standard from us

if we offer one (we will refund any price difference if the alternative is

of a lower value). In the event a refund is paid to you, we will provide

a full refund of your travel insurance premiums if you paid them to

us and can show that you are unable to transfer or reuse your policy

cancellation is due to unavoidable and extraordinary circumstances

(see definition above).

6(b) If we make changes to your holiday – it is a term of your booking

that we are able to make changes to any aspect of your booking. If the

change is insignificant, we will ensure that you are notified about it.

Examples of insignificant changes include alteration of your outward/

return flights which reduces your holiday duration by less than 12

hours, changes to aircraft type, change of accommodation to another

of the same or higher standard, changes of airline, a change of

overseas airport. If we alter significantly any of the main characteristics

of the travel services that make up your package we will give you the

choice of accepting the change, receiving a refund, or, if one is offered,

switching to an alternative holiday. If you choose to accept a refund

we shall pay compensation as shown in the table below except where

the cancellation is due to unavoidable and extraordinary circumstances

(see definition above).

Costs incurred by you. If we make a significant change to or cancel

your travel arrangements for any reason, we will not reimburse any

expenses, costs or losses you incur relating to payments to third

parties, including, but not limited to, insurance premiums (unless paid

to us), car parking, hotel accommodation, currency, connecting flights,

or other travel arrangements such as kennelling fees etc.

7. Our Liability to you – you must inform us without undue delay of

any failure to perform or improper performance of the travel services

included in this package. If any of the travel services included in your

package are not performed in accordance with the contract, or are

improperly performed, by us or the travel service suppliers, and this

has affected the enjoyment of your travel arrangements, you may be

entitled to an appropriate price reduction or compensation or both. We

will not be liable where any failure to perform or improper performance

of the travel services is due to: you or another member of your party;

or a third party unconnected with the provision of the travel services in

the package; or unavoidable and extraordinary circumstances, which

means a situation beyond our control, the consequences of which

could not have been avoided even if all reasonable measures had been

taken.

Our liability in cases involving, luggage, personal property, and money

is limited to the excess for such items on your travel insurance policy.

Our liability, except in cases involving, luggage, personal property,

money, death, injury or illness, shall be limited to a maximum of twice

the basic cost of your travel arrangements excluding, supplements,

extras, extensions and insurance. Our liability will also be limited in

accordance with and/or in an identical manner to a) the contractual

terms of the companies that provide the travel services that make up

your package. These terms are incorporated into this booking; and

b) any relevant international convention, for example the Montreal

Convention in respect of travel by air, the Athens Convention in respect

of travel by sea, the Berne Convention in respect of travel by rail and

the Paris Convention in respect of the provision of accommodation,

which limit the amount of and conditions under which compensation

can be claimed for death, injury, delay to passengers and loss, damage

and delay to luggage. We are to be regarded as having all benefit of any

limitation of the extent of or the conditions under which compensation

is to be paid under these or any conventions. You can ask us for copies

of the travel service contractual terms, or the international conventions.

Under EU law (Regulation 261/2004) you have rights in some

circumstances to refunds and/or compensation from your airline in

cases of denied boarding, cancellation or delay to flights. Full details

will be publicised at EU airports and available from airlines. However

reimbursement in such cases will not automatically entitle you to a

refund of your holiday cost from us. Your right to a refund and/or

compensation from us is set out in these booking conditions. If any

payments to you are due from us, any payment made to you by the

airline or any other service provider will be deducted.

It is a condition of our acceptance of liability that you notify us and our

supplier(s) in strict accordance with the terms of clause 9 of any claim

made by you or any member of your party. Any person(s) to whom any

price reduction or compensation is made (and their parent or guardian

if that person is under 18 years of age) must assign to ourselves or

our insurers any rights they may have to pursue any third party in

connection with the claim. In all circumstances you must provide us

and our insurers with all assistance we may reasonably require.

This clause 7 is intended to set out our obligations to you as an

‘organiser’ in the Package Travel and Linked Travel Arrangements

Regulations 2018. Please note, we regret we cannot make any payment

to you or any member of your party if the person concerned is not

entitled to one from us under these Regulations.

8. Additional assistance – if you’re in difficulty whilst on holiday and

ask us to help we will provide appropriate assistance, in particular by

providing information on health services, local authorities and consular

assistance; and helping you to find alternative arrangements and any

necessary phone calls/emails. You must pay any costs we incur, if the

difficulty is your fault.

9. Complaints and problems – if you have a complaint about any of

the services included in your holiday, you must inform us, our resort

representative, and the relevant supplier (e.g. hotelier) without undue

delay who will endeavour to put things right. (Please note we deal with

all eventual complaints by post after your return and will not engage in

email conservations while you are away unless the matter is urgent and

capable of immediate remedy on the spot.)

If it is not resolved locally, please follow this up within 28 days of your

return home by writing to our Customer Services Department giving

your booking reference and all other relevant information. Please keep

your letter concise and to the point. If you fail to follow the requirement

to report your complaint in resort we will have been deprived of the

opportunity to investigate and rectify it and this may affect your rights

under this booking.

We are a Member of ABTA, membership number W3692. We are

obliged to maintain a high standard of service to you by ABTA’s Code

of Conduct. We can also offer you ABTA’s scheme for the resolution

of disputes which is approved by the Chartered Trading Standards

Institute. If we can’t resolve your complaint, go to www.abta.com to

use ABTA’s simple procedure. Further information on the Code and

ABTA’s assistance in resolving disputes can be found on www.abta.

com. You can also access the European Commission Online Dispute

(ODR) Resolution platform at http://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/. This

ODR platform is a means of notifying us of your complaint; it will not

determine how your complaint should be resolved.

10. Behaviour – when you book with us, you accept responsibility for

any damage or loss caused by you or any member of your party. Full

payment for any such damage or loss must be paid direct at the time

to the accommodation owner or manager or other supplier. If you fail to

do so, you will be responsible for meeting any claims (including legal

costs) subsequently made against us as a result of your actions. We

expect all clients to have consideration for other people. If in our opinion

or in the opinion of any other person in authority, you or any member

of your party behaves in such a way as to cause or be likely to cause

danger, annoyance or distress to any third party or damage to property,

we are entitled, without prior notice, to terminate the holiday of the

person(s) concerned. In this situation, the person(s) concerned will

be required to leave the accommodation or other service. We will have

no further responsibility toward such person(s) including any return

travel arrangements. No refunds will be made and we will not pay any

expenses or costs incurred as a result of the termination.

11. Special requests – if you have a request, you must advise us at

time of booking and clearly note it on your booking form. Although we

will try to pass any reasonable requests on to the relevant supplier, we

regret we cannot guarantee any request will be met. Failure to meet

any special request will not be a breach of contract. We cannot accept

any booking which is specified to be conditional on the fulfilment of

a particular request. All such bookings will be treated as standard

bookings subject to these provisions.

12. Mobility and medical problems – if you or a member of your

party has a medical problem/disability which may affect your holiday,

please tell us before you book so that we can advise accordingly. You

must give us full details in writing at the time of booking. Please note

that to get the best out of your visit to certain places may involve

walking on inclines, through cobbled streets etc. If we feel unable to

accommodate the needs of the person concerned, or reasonably feel

that the enjoyment of other travellers may be prejudiced, we reserve the

right to decline/cancel their reservation. We regret we cannot accept

any bookings from wheelchair users unless travelling with a companion

able and willing to take responsibility when boarding coaches, trains

etc. and on excursions. If this proves not to be the case at the start

of or during your holiday, we shall assist in making arrangements for

your immediate return to the UK at your own cost and we shall not

pay compensation or make any refund in respect holiday curtailment.

NB Our representatives, guides, coach drivers etc. are not permitted to

offer physical assistance.

13. Passports, visas and health requirements. Your specific passport

and visa requirements, and other immigration requirements are

your responsibility and you should confirm these with the relevant

Embassies and/or Consulates. We do not accept any responsibility if

you cannot travel because you have not complied with any passport,

visa or immigration requirements (including any procedures required

by airlines at check-in). Information on health is contained in a leaflet

(Health Advice for Travellers) available from local Department of

Health offices and most Post Offices. The Foreign & Commonwealth

Travel Advice Unit may have issued information about your holiday

destination. You are advised to check this information on the internet.

https://www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice

14. Your Financial Protection – we provide full financial protection for

our package holidays, by way of our Air Travel Organiser’s Licence

number 5537, issued by the Civil Aviation Authority, Gatwick Airport

South, West Sussex, RH6 0YR, UK, telephone 0333 103 6350, email

claims@caa.co.uk. When you buy an ATOL protected flight inclusive

package from us you will receive an ATOL Certificate. This lists what is

financially protected, where you can get information on what this means

for you and who to contact if things go wrong. We will provide you with

the services listed on the ATOL Certificate (or a suitable alternative). In

some cases, where we aren’t able to do so for reasons of insolvency,

an alternative ATOL holder may provide you with the services you have

bought or a suitable alternative (at no extra cost to you). You agree

to accept that in those circumstances the alternative ATOL holder will

perform those obligations and you agree to pay any money outstanding

to be paid by you under your contract to that alternative ATOL holder.

However, you also agree that in some cases it will not be possible to

appoint an alternative ATOL holder, in which case you will be entitled

to make a claim under the ATOL scheme (or your credit card issuer

where applicable). If we are unable to provide the services listed (or a

suitable alternative, through an alternative ATOL holder or otherwise)

for reasons of insolvency, the Trustees of the Air Travel Trust may make

a payment to (or confer a benefit on) you under the ATOL scheme. You

agree that in return for such a payment or benefit you assign absolutely

to those Trustees any claims which you have or may have arising out

of or relating to the non-provision of the services, including any claim

against us (or your credit card issuer where applicable). You also agree

that any such claims may be re-assigned to another body, if that other

body has paid sums you have claimed under the ATOL scheme.

We provide full financial protection for our package holidays that do not

include a flight by way of a bond held by ABTA – The Travel Association

30 Park Street London SE1 9EQ www.abta.co.uk.

15. Brochure Accuracy – the information and prices shown in this

brochure may have changed by the time you come to book. Whilst

every effort is made to ensure the accuracy of the brochure and prices

at the time of printing, regrettably errors do occasionally occur. You

must therefore ensure you check all details of your chosen holiday

(including the price) with us at the time of booking. This brochure is our

sole responsibility. It is not issued on behalf of and does not commit

any other organisation/ carriers whose services are featured.

16. Safety standards – please note, it is the requirements and

standards of the country in which any services which make up your

holiday are provided which apply to those services and not those of the

UK. As a general rule, these requirements and standards will not be the

same as the UK and may sometimes be lower.

17. Brochure Information & Timings – all timings given are for general

guidance only and are subject to change. Please note that changes

to flight departure times which reduce your holiday duration by less

than 12 hours are not significant changes for the purposes of clause

6. Precise timings, intended order of excursions/visits and joining

instructions will be sent with your joining instructions approximately

ten days before departure. You are asked to remember that hotel,

resort or other facilities may not be available during your stay due to

seasonality or may be withdrawn for maintenance or other reasons

beyond our control. In these circumstances we shall bear no resulting

liability. Please note: the duration/number of days shown in the

brochure includes the days of departure and return. Any photographs/

illustrations contained in this brochure are purely representative of

the type of places visited, and do not necessarily depict your exact

accommodation/destination.

18. Flight Delays and Flights – while we shall try to assist in every way

to minimise the effects of any delays we do not accept liability for any

delays which occur. Where a delay does occur we shall consult with the

airline concerned regarding the provision of appropriate refreshments.

Some protection is afforded by our recommended travel insurance, and

you should ensure your own insurance policy provides adequate cover

for flight delays and cancellation. Under EU Regulation 261 you have

rights in some circumstances to refunds and/or compensation from

your airline in cases of denied boarding, cancellation or delay to flights.

If your airline does not comply with these rules you should complain

to the CAA online at www.caa.co.uk. For assistance by phone call 020

7453 6888. However reimbursement in such cases is the responsibility

of the airline and will not automatically entitle you to a refund of your

holiday cost from us. Your right to a refund and/ or compensation from

us is set out in clause 6. If any payments to you are due from us,

any payment made to you by the airline will be deducted from this

amount. Please note that any claim for payments from an airline under

EU Regulation 261 should be made by the passenger. However, if you

ask us to make such a claim on your behalf, we shall deduct from

any payment we obtain our reasonable costs incurred in connection

with a delay or in re-arranging flights for you. Please note that very

occasionally an airline may add a touchdown en route. In this case a

flight with an intermediate stop not involving a change of aircraft is still

considered a direct flight.

19. Hotel Ratings, Bedrooms and Meals. We are required by law to

state the star rating of hotels. All star ratings stated are those given

by the authorities of the country concerned and are an indication only

of relative standards. Actual standards can vary between hotels of

the same category. Similarly, as the basis for star ratings varies from

country to country, hotels with the same rating but in different countries

may not be of the same standard. Facilities in single rooms may differ

from double rooms. Hotels charge a supplement for single rooms even

where there is only one single bed as the costs of the upkeep of the

room is the same, regardless of how many people occupy it. Triple

rooms may consist of a double bed and bed-settee or folding bed. Our

aim of providing holidays with interesting and unusual itineraries takes

us to places away from mass-market tourism. In some cases, where

dinner is included, it may be on a fixed menu basis with no choice as

opposed to buffet style. Please notify us of any dietary requirements.

Depending on flight timings, dinner may consist of a cold plate on

arrival at the hotel if the kitchens are closed.

20. Third Party Websites – We are not responsible for the contents of

websites of hotels or other suppliers and tourist boards etc. included in

this brochure or on our website. Their contents do not form part of our

contract with you nor can they be construed as representations by us.
