Planning a Florida holiday? Our Personal Holiday Advisor (part of our sister company Personal Holiday Advisors) Hayley Mann, has just returned from an educational trip with our trusted partner, Ocean Florida, bringing back plenty of first-hand tips, recommendations and inspiration to help customers plan their perfect Orlando adventure. Over seven action-packed days, Hayley explored some of Florida's biggest attractions, toured a selection of luxury Orlando villas and family-friendly resorts, and even discovered a completely different side to the Sunshine State beyond the famous theme parks. If you're wondering what's new in Orlando, where to stay or whether Epic Universe really lives up to the hype, here's what Hayley discovered.

We’re back with another USA blog as part of our FIFA World Cup 26 series. This week, while Las Vegas isn’t actually hosting any matches, we’re seeing plenty of fans adding it into their US trips — and it’s easy to see why. Las Vegas is one of those destinations that doesn’t really need an introduction, but we’ll give it one anyway. This is the city where an Eiffel Tower stands next to a pyramid. Where breakfast at 2pm is completely normal. Where you can watch world-class shows, take a gondola ride through Venice, stand beneath dancing fountains, and try your luck in a casino… all without leaving the Strip. It's loud. It's over the top. It's completely bonkers. And that's exactly why people love it. First things first, let’s get the stereotype out of the way. Yes, Las Vegas is known for hen dos, stag parties and group weekend getaways. But Vegas isn’t selective — it really does have something for everyone. Whether you’re planning the ultimate hen party, a family trip, a couples getaway, or even a solo adventure, Las Vegas works in more ways than people expect. So with that in mind, here are our must-do experiences for your first visit.

Ready for your latest USA instalment as part of our FIFA World Cup 26 series? This week we’re heading to one of the most iconic cities in the world as England prepare to take on Panama on 27th June. Of course, we’re talking about New York City. New York doesn’t really need an introduction. Even if you’ve never been, you already know it — you’ve seen it in films, on TV, in adverts, and probably scrolling Instagram at 2am when you start planning trips you haven’t actually booked yet. Times Square, Central Park, the Statue of Liberty, Broadway, yellow taxis everywhere… it’s one of those cities that feels familiar before you even arrive. But here’s the question we get asked all the time as travel agents: "When is the best time to visit New York?" And honestly? It's a difficult one to answer. Summer in New York is absolutely unreal. Rooftop bars packed, outdoor events everywhere, Central Park in full swing, street performers, long evenings where you lose track of time just wandering around. But then winter rolls in… And suddenly New York turns into something else entirely. It’s the New York you've seen in the films. Christmas lights everywhere. Ice skating in Central Park. Markets in Bryant Park. Fifth Avenue looking like a film set. It’s very “Home Alone 2 energy” if we’re being honest. So rather than picking a winner, we've decided to do something a little different. We've put together two perfect three-day itineraries – one for a summer visit and one for a winter city break. Same New York. Completely different vibe.

If you’ve been to Constantinou Bros Asimina Suites Hotel before, you’ll already know how special it is. And if it’s been on your list for a while, now might be the perfect time to go.  The hotel officially reopened on 2nd May 2026 after a six-month refurbishment, and one of our team (Carly from head office) was lucky enough to spend a week there straight after reopening to see what’s changed. It’s always really important that our agents know hotels inside and out, so that you can trust they know what they are talking about when they make recommendations for your holiday.

We're back with another USA blog ahead of England playing Ghana on 23rd June during FIFA World Cup 26. This time we're heading over to one of America's most historic cities... … … Boston. (Did you get the right answer?).

We’re back with another USA blog ahead of the FIFA World Cup 2026, and this time we’re diving into the legend that is Dallas. Dallas is known for iconic Texas BBQ, high-end shopping, cowboy culture, and the historic assassination site of John F. Kennedy. But most importantly… SPORTS.  And, with England taking on Croatia on the 17th June, there’s no better time to talk about one of America’s true sports cities.

This month, we’re celebrating the World Cup by exploring some of America’s most iconic cities, all of which are set to host key fixtures involving the UK’s home nations. From Miami and Dallas to Boston and New York, we’ll be taking you through each destination ahead of the big matches, highlighting what to see, where to go, and how to make the most of your time there.  We’re kicking things off in Miami, ahead of Scotland’s clash with Brazil on 24th June, so lets get into it!

Planning a Northern Lights holiday? Discover the best places to see the Aurora Borealis in 2026, from Iceland’s lagoons to Tromsø’s cosy pubs. Read our expert guide.

Roses are red, violets are blue, no matter what you're looking for, we have a holiday for you.... We had to put a cheesy line in here somewhere… But, we often fall into the trap of a ‘classic romance.’ Don’t get us wrong some of us are secret cringy romantics at heart. But here’s the thing: romance is subjective. For some, it’s the adrenaline of a sunrise hike in Iceland; for others, it’s the total seclusion of a Bora Bora lagoon or the "main character energy" of walking through New York City. Whether you are planning a Valentine’s Day trip, a long-overdue anniversary escape, or maybe the perfect proposal spot… we’ve curated a list of the best romantic holiday destinations for 2026.

2026 is all about those "pinch-me" moments. It’s about finally booking those tickets, packing the bag, and doing that one trip that’s been on your bucket list for years. But the best bit? Everyone’s dream looks different. For some, their dream destination looks like white-washed sands and an overwater villa, Or maybe it’s, backpack on, trekking up a mountain just to catch that first glimpse of the view. Some crave the buzz of a city that never sleeps, or the silence of a wide-open road. Whatever your dream destination is, we’re here to help you turn that daydream into a reality. To give you some serious inspo, we sat down with our travel agents to see which dreams they’re chasing this year.
