Excursion Tours

Excursion Tours - Relive centuries of colourful history in a day
A rewarding city break destination is just as much about a convenient base for exploring other nearby attractions and sightseeing for many people. Some of the world's most spectacular nature and sights are tantalisingly close to some major cities and provide easily accessible excursion tours. Naples city breaks are famed for trips to the top of incredible Mount Vesuvius and a day in ancient Pompeii while no visit to sunny Seville should miss an excursion tour to the vibrant city of Granada and the immensely popular Alhambra Palace. Elsewhere in Spain the rugged beaches of the Costa Brava and the spectacular monastery of Montserrat are invitingly close to Barcelona or visit the world heritage city of Alcala de Henares, a short journey from central Madrid.

Excursion Tours - Fascinating natural scenery easily reached from the city
Nature lovers will find many exciting and rewarding excursion tours to enjoy with springtime trips to the tulip fields of Keukenhof and Haarlem always popular, just a short journey away from Amsterdam. From all corners of the globe inspiring excursions out to see whale watching are sure to be memorable from Boston, sunny Cape Town and the trendy city of Reykjavik. The national park of Lahemaa is one of Tallinn's best kept secrets and a full day excursion tour will encounter pristine scenery of waterfalls, dense pine forest walks, quaint fishing hamlets and dramatic mountains. For a though provoking and inspiring day out the battlefield tours of the Lille countryside in Ypres and Arras will leave a lasting impression as will a full day in Gallipoli, accessible from Istanbul or Kanchanaburi, home to the bridge on the River Kwai, north of bustling Bangkok.

Excursion Tours - A memorable action packed day out for kids
Family friendly fun and exciting kid’s attractions are an important ingredient for a memorable city break and many destinations have some surprisingly unique days out to enjoy. The funfair of Coney Island offers a wonderful contrast to the hustle and bustle of New York and features great traditional fun with ferris wheels, rollercoaster’s and its world famous boardwalk of traditional sideshow entertainment and a lively, unpretentious atmosphere. For sheer fairytale excitement, kids will love an excursion tour out of Hamburg to the town of Hamelin, home of the legend of the Pied Piper. It features beautifully restored timber houses and Renaissance buildings that simply add to its enchanting atmosphere. Tours and musical shows re enact the story of the Pied Piper and provide magical entertainment for young children.
