Ultimate Egypt
Birthdays can be landmark occasions in one’s life, which often sparks feelings of dreams unfulfilled or adventures yet to be had. Well, if a big bucket-list getaway is how you want to celebrate that occasion, you’ll struggle to find a destination more befitting of the word ‘landmark’ than Egypt. Our nine-day tour of this storied land combines the country’s most famous sights with some lesser-known gems. We’ll start in the bustling streets of Cairo and the ancient ruins of Giza, where you can visit the Pyramids, the Sphinx and the brand new Grand Egyptian Museum. From there we’ll trace the Nile south, first by train and then via a luxury river cruiser, which we’ll call home for a few nights. Explore the candlelit remains of Luxor Temple at night, haggle away in busy souks and explore the islands of Aswan by kayaking along the Nile – now that should make some serious damage to your lifelong bucket list.

Coastal Croatia
Treat yourself with a birthday getaway to the shimmering Dalmatian Coast of Croatia and you can expect a week or so of pure indulgence. In Southern Europe they know how to enjoy the finer things in life, whether that means sipping on wine and slurping on oysters, or simply lounging on the hidden beaches of tiny little islands. Our eight-day itinerary starts in the historic city of Split and ends in the iconic city of Dubrovnik, but the meat in the sandwich is a sumptuous island-hopping adventure along the coast. You’ll speedboat around the island of Vis and explore the stunning old town of Korcula, before sampling Lumbarda’s unique grape varieties during a wine tasting extravaganza. Back on the mainland we’ll make our way to Dubrovnik, stopping off in the town of Ston, famous for having some of the freshest, tastiest oysters on the planet.

Blissful Bali
This island paradise is the perfect place to gather your favourite people for some pure escapism. From unique cultural experiences to serene tropical landscapes and world class hospitality, a trip to Bali can mean laid-back retreat and adventurous escape in equal measure. That’s certainly the case on our epic 12-day itinerary. You’ll start by making a traditional Balinese offering and placing it in a sacred temple, before hiking through rice paddies and rural villages, and picnicking amid hidden waterfalls. Our guide will take you to yoga and cooking classes, as well as temples and royal gardens. On day five you’ll have to make sure everyone’s alarms are set early for our sunrise hike to the peak of Mount Batur, but things get more chilled on Gili Trawangan, a tiny island where we’ll spend a few nights at a luxurious beach resort. Lounge by the pool, hit the beach or walk around the entire island – it only takes a few hours – and don’t forget to join our guide as we go snorkelling with sea turtles off the coast of the Gili Islands.
