Don't fear Blue Monday this year...here's the best way to beat the blues!

 

BLUE TRU MONDAY BABYYYY!!!!!!!!

 

It’s that time of year once again. The nights are cold, the drinks are non-alcoholic (for those of us who are brave/stupid enough to be doing dry January) and our next holiday seems far too long away! We are here to help - if you need inspiration for your 2024 travel plans or you just fancy a browse of our top picks this is the only travel blog you’ll need to read in January.

 

Orangutans, beaches and volunteering!

 

 

New year is always the time for new beginnings, so is there any better way to start than by booking a trip to one of our newest destinations? Our Sumatra tour was launched late last year and it is currently THE must visit place in Indonesia. If you have always dreamed of seeing orangutans, insane beaches and getting to know the locals of an incredible island - this is the place to visit in 2024! This 9 day adventure is the perfect way to experience an undiscovered gem in Indonesia and be the envy of your feed when you go somewhere completely unique and relatively undiscovered!

It is also a great place to start your travels if you fancy staying in South East Asia for longer too. You could start in Sumatra then pop over to Bali, The Philippines or go for a boogie in Thailand! Want a plan in place for your travels? Check out our multi country trips too to discover our set routes across Asia, covering Thailand, Vietnam and Cambodia!

 

 

Europe is calling…

We will never get enough of Europe. The cultures, the cities, the views and of course the food! It is so varied and time and time again it produces incredible travel memories. There are so many ways to travel Europe - so luckily for you it’ll never be a case of “been there done that.” First up we have our Croatia Sailing Adventure which is the best way to discover Croatia. The Adriatic Sea is the perfect place to really appreciate the stunning landscapes and coastlines of Croatia. Being on a boat also means you can see lots of places in a short space of time, we sail early in the morning so the days aren’t wasted with travel AND you won’t have to repack in every destination! Dreamy!

 

 

Want to see cities? Well we have a treat for you! How does this sound, 20 days in 10 cities? Crazy right - well we have a trick up our sleeve! We’ll be travelling by train so it’ll be easy to get around and you won’t have anything to worry about apart from whether you’ll have a beer or an aperol…It is the best way to explore Europe! Meet incredible people, see all the highlights AND eat all the good food.

 

 

How about something a little cooler? Ever fancied skiing but have no one to go with! Well, think of us as your matchmaker because we have a perfect solution. 7 days starting in Barcelona. Skiing, snowtubing, apres and tapas. The perfect holiday for ski pros and for those of you have never ventured onto the slopes. We LOVE skiing and by that we promise we don’t just mean the apres. Make this the year you beat the Jan blues by booking a winter getaway that's not far away! We provide the ski gear so all you need is some thermals, waterproof gear and a hip flask then you're good to go! Also there’s 10% off at the moment which leaves even more money for Patatas Bravas - yummmmm.

 

Finally Greece is calling! Turquoise blue waters, golden sandy beaches, with white washed blue and white buildings. If you’re looking for the ultimate paradise, parties and pina coladas to banish away the winter blues then you have come to the right place. The sunset hot spot of the Mediterranean, the history & culture destination of Europe and THE place to be for all you foodies. Tzatziki and Gyros are what our cuisine dreams are made of! See you in Athens very soon!

 

 

 

Pop over to Peru

Well we had to include something from Latin America didn’t we! Peru is a great place to book if you want to escape the 9-5 later in the year. Get back to basics in Peru, see the most stunning landscapes and visit some of the iconic spots in Latin America. Get your culture fix, bring out your adventurous side AND make friends for life. Whether you have extra annual leave to use, your off on a gap year or you just want to see the world in any way you can Peru is a perfect gateway to a more well-rounded and well-travelled version of you. Our guides in Peru are incredible, their knowledge and passion for their our country is amazing and you’ll leave as an honorary peruvian too!

 

 

Sooooo we hope we have given you a little taste of what your 2024 could look like if you choose to channel Blue Monday into Tru Monday and decide to book the real trip of a lifetime. The world is out there to find in 2024 and there has never been a better time to book thanks to our Endless Summer Sale. It’s so easy to always delay travel plans in favour for “adulty” stuff but just remember this, when you are 90 would you rather remember the year you travelled the world, saw incredible sights and met amazing people. Or the year you worked an average 9-5 and went to an overpriced pub far to many times - we know which we’d rather…
