So much more included for all tastes

With so much included, from hand-picked hotels to luxury five-star ships, insightful guided tours and visits with local experts, big name highlights to lesser-known treasures off the tourist trail, you’re assured a holiday to remember.

Head for the great outdoors in North America’s exceptional National Parks or experience South Africa’s magnificent wildlife on a bucket-list trip you’ve long dreamed of, cruise in style along Croatia’s dazzling Adriatic coast in a glamorous luxury yacht or immerse yourself in Italy’s legendary culture, extraordinary architecture and historic wonders, plus of course, its legendary cuisine.

Whether your members are history buffs, nature-lovers, art experts, or you all just fancy the convenience and reassurance of an escorted holiday – yet with the flexibility to do your own thing too, we’ve got a host of wonderful holidays to excite and inspire every passion.

 

Five-star luxury river cruising

Our superb collection of award-winning European river cruises could be just the ticket for your group’s next holiday. Discover Europe’s most iconic and beautiful rivers from the dramatic Douro, its valley sides draped in vineyards and dotted with sleepy terracotta roofed villages, to the mighty Danube that laces through a spectacular landscape of picturesque medieval towns and the most majestic imperial cities.

Unpack once and you can all enjoy your most revitalising holiday ever as you relax on board in the most sumptuous and spacious outside cabins – many with full floor to ceiling windows or a private balcony to soak up the views.

With excellent facilities on board too – a fitness suite and spa, to a whirlpool and sauna, some of our ships even have an outdoor pool – and with a magnificent sun deck where you can lounge on a sun bed whilst soaking up the views, you’ll certainly return home fully recharged. Dine in the elegance of the ship’s superb restaurant with panoramic windows, so you’ll never miss a thing, and you’ll be served imaginative seasonally inspired menus from a professional and welcoming crew.

As the sun goes down your favourite digestif awaits in the refined ambience of the bar and lounge or al fresco on the terrace area.

 

Fabulous France

Riviera’s roots are firmly in France and from the Seine to the Soane, there’s something about France that you can’t help but adore, be it the vast rural landscapes of the north, with its sweeping coastline, or the most dramatic Alpine landscapes and the sun-baked Mediterranean vistas of the south.

On our thoughtfully crafted tours and cruises, discover its spectacular cities crammed with historic architecture, sensational culture, picturesque medieval treasures unchanged in centuries, a world-class cuisine and a café culture to covet.

Book our stunning cruise to Burgundy, the River Rhône & Provence, and discover the spectacular Rhône as it weaves a breathtaking course from the Alps to the southeast corner of France, through the most striking landscapes, from sophisticated Lyon to historic Avignon and colourful Arles, hilltop villages lost in time and the sun-scorched lavender fields of Provence, past sweeping olive groves and terraces of ancient vineyards.
