18 New for 2016


Our Grand Tourer programme has increased yet again for 2016 and is full of experience-rich holidays across the UK and Europe. Grand Tourer Holidays offer included door-to-door pick-ups in many locations or included lounge access at the airport for holidays by air, many include experienced tour managers, and hotels are typically four-star. For 2016-17 we have exclusively chartered the


Serenade 2, on which we will be exploring the Danube from Passau to the Black Sea. This ship is a wonderful addition to our fleet and will offer air, rail and coach options. We have added included excursions to many of our river cruises and also have a range of all- inclusive cruises in France, Italy, Spain and Portugal.
