Spain

Spain is known the world over for its relaxed atmosphere, delicious food and, most importantly, its beautiful beaches. Warm winds and seemingly endless days of sunshine also make Spain the perfect destination for a sun holiday. As always, our sun holidays provide an ideal mix of relaxation and sightseeing so, whether you want to explore the city of Barcelona and its nearby beaches on a trip to the Costa Brava or visit the Moorish influenced region of Andalucía on a trip to the Costa del Sol, we have the perfect trip.

Italy

Italy has a variety of great spots to enjoy a sun holiday. From beautiful lakes like Garda, Maggiore and Como to incredible islands like Sicily and Sardinia to stunning coastline in port towns like Sorrento and Bari. Each different area has its own unique culture for us to explore with help from our local, expert guide. On our sun holidays to Italy, we’ll have the opportunity to see breathtaking scenery and relax on sun soaked beaches, all while immersing ourselves in Italian culture.

Portugal

Portugal is famous for its expansive, rugged coastline and our guided holidays are the perfect way to explore the beautiful scenery of the country. Our sun holidays to Portugal offer an fantastic mix of culture and leisure, with guided excursions and free time in equal measure. On our tours to Estoril, we’ll enjoy a day trip to Lisbon and Sintra Castle along with time to soak up the sun at the nearby beaches. On our holidays to the Algarve, we’ll relax on sandy coves set between dramatic cliffs and visit authentic Portuguese fishing villages.

Croatia

In recent years, Croatia’s popularity as a sun holiday destination has been increasing and it’s easy to see why! On our trips to Croatia’s Adriatic or Dalmatian coasts, we’ll experience the very best that this gorgeous country has to offer. From a full day excursion by boat to the ‘Blue Pearl of the Adriatic’, Rovinj, to walking tours of historic towns like Split and Trogir, each of our holidays includes the perfect balance of leisure and sightseeing, so we get the most out of our trip.

A Guided Group Sun Holiday Experience

Sunshine is at the very top of many holiday makers’ wish lists. Sometimes we just want to escape the dreary weather and unwind on a sun-drenched island or white sand beach. But, there's more to our Sun Destinations than the weather alone. While we’ll enjoy plenty of leisure time to relax and soak up the sunshine, we’ll also discover these beautiful destinations with guided excursions to historic and cultural landmarks. From exploring Moorish palaces in Andalucía to island hopping through traditional fishing villages in Malta, we’ll see more than on a typical sun holiday. We offer tours to favourites like Spain, Italy and Portugal along with interesting destinations like Greece, Croatia, and Cyprus.
