Adventure closer to home

Perfect for families who don’t want to spend lots of time traveling, and couples looking for a romantic adventure close to home, Europe has lots to offer the intrepid traveler, from Greek island-hopping to gondolas and gastronomy in Venice and Croatia.

Perhaps you’d like to start by exploring Italy’s cities before heading the designer island of Capri for a few glamorous days in the sunshine. Or maybe you’re keen to take your family skiing across several resorts, staying in different ski hotels as you go. We can tailor almost anything you like.
