Tailor-made trips
Some of the best trips don’t come in a brochure. If you have a route in mind, or just a feeling about the kind of journey you’d love, I’ll help you piece it together around your pace, your interests and your budget.
What’s usually included
Every trip is different, so this is a general guide. I’ll always confirm exactly what’s included in your booking before you pay.
Often included
- exactly what you choose, built around you
- flights, including multi-stop or open-jaw routes
- hotels, lodges or apartments for each stop
- car hire, rail journeys or transfers between stops
- tours or guided days where they add something
Often extra
- anything you’d rather arrange yourself
- most meals and drinks
- entrance fees and local taxes
- visas or entry permits, where needed
- travel insurance
Good to know
- Allow time to plan. Multi-stop trips take a little longer to put together, and popular places can book up early.
- Travel days count. I’ll be realistic about journey times, so you’re not spending your holiday in transit.
- Leave some breathing space. A mix of planned days and free time usually works best.
- Entry rules. Different countries can have different passport and visa requirements, so check them for every stop.
Who it suits
Independent travellers, couples and families who want something personal, and anyone with a once-in-a-lifetime trip in mind.
Ideas to get you thinking
A few popular choices. There are plenty more, so if somewhere else is on your list, just ask.
- Italy by rail
- Japan
- Vietnam and Cambodia
- South Africa
- a USA road trip
- Canada’s Rockies
- Australia and New Zealand
- Costa Rica
