Experience Holidays

Experience holidays are doing whatever we love to do, but doing it somewhere else. Generally they’re active holidays, not necessarily physical, and because everyone’s interests are different, Experience holidays are often tailor made or ‘special interest’ packages.

Maybe you’re a fan of Mexican food. How about a cooking tour in Oaxaca? You like to hike? Consider a trekking holiday through Nepal. How about a cycling tour of Vietnam? Shopaholics could do much worse than a dedicated shopping tour of Hong Kong, or what about a trip along Route 66 on the back of a Harley?

The possibilities are endless, so let’s get together  and plan your own personal Experience holiday.

It doesn’t have to be all go go go. Wouldn’t you love to trundle down the Canal du Midi at a sedate 4kmh, sipping champagne and watching the world drift past? Or cruise through Alaska’s iconic Inside Passage while bidding for fantastic artwork at auction on your luxury cruise ship? A more sublime experience perhaps? Think about a relaxing and renewing spa holiday in a luxury island getaway. Or a literary tour of Ireland, an escorted coach tour of Europe’s historical cities, a skiing holiday in the Rockies, or a garden tour of England’s Lake District.

Some people hanker for a villa in Tuscany, others yearn for a tent in the wilds of the Amazon, still others might choose an edgy TriBeca hotel and a week cruising New York’s galleries and museums. What about a lodge based safari in the Serengeti, or a spice tour of the souks of Morocco, a winery tour of Moldavia or a roundup on an Argentinean cattle ranch? Every experience holiday is unique and is a reflection of our own dreams and desires.

Tennyson was spot on when he said “All experience is an arch wherethrough gleams that untravelled world whose margin fades forever when I move”.
