Get in the party spirit with wrestling, beer and mezcal in Mexico City
Embrace the party lifestyle on this five-day tour of Mexico City. Start local as you tour through markets in search of cold beers and spicy tacos, before working your way through the trendiest bars in Condesa. There’s a quick day trip to the Teotihuacan Pyramids, then a raucous evening of mezcal and beer at the lucha libre wrestling matches. If you’re feeling adventurous, try a michelada – a mix of beer, lime juice, hot sauce, spices and tomato juice. There’s time to see the Monumento a la Revolución, kayak along the Xochimilco canals and, if you’re looking for something a little stronger, sample some pulque – an ancient liquor that the Aztecs themselves may have shotted too.

Embrace the viking spirit with a hearty Icelandic ale
The cold winters of Iceland are ideal conditions for cosy taverns and hearty beverages to warm the soul, and numb the chill, of its hardy populous. The vikings loved their beer, and so will you at the end of our five-day trip in the Land of Fire and Ice. We’ll start our trip with a traditional three-course meal and, whether you opt for Icelandic beef or Arctic char, it’s always best washed down with a local beer. The trip will show you the highlights of the Golden Circle, thundering waterfalls, surreal black sand beaches and geothermal lagoons, as well as offer you the chance to snowmobile across a glacier and hike across an icy expanse. Each day is capped off with a well-earned hearty local meal and a very well-earned glass or two of Icelandic ale. If you really need warming up, perhaps it’s better to opt for whisky or go local and try a shot of brennivín.
