Cultural Holidays & Adventures

Experience More Than the Sights

Some of the best travel experiences come from getting beneath the surface of a destination.

  • Taste the local food
  • Explore with a local guide
  • Wander through markets
  • Learn to cook a traditional dish

It's these experiences that can turn a holiday into something you'll remember for years.  A cultural adventure doesn't have to be a long trip. A weekend city break can be the perfect opportunity to experience somewhere new.

A Cultural Weekend Away

Spend a long weekend in Istanbul, exploring the Grand Bazaar, tasting Turkish food, cruising the Bosphorus and discovering centuries of history.

Or choose somewhere like Seville, Marrakech or Rome, adding a food tour, cookery class, local guide or neighbourhood experience to take you beyond the usual sightseeing.

We can package your city break with flights, accommodation, transfers and excursions, making it easy to add the experiences you really want.
