Our Special Interest holidays are designed for travellers who want to indulge their passion and enjoy more from their holiday. Whether you are interested in walking, birdwatching, astronomy, food and wine, gardens, bridge or learning something new, these holidays have been designed to fuel your curiosity, all in the company of like-minded travellers.
Every holiday includes at least four excursions, each one carefully chosen to enhance your experience. From mapped walking routes and visits to lesser-known historic sites, to where to find the perfect place to admire the night sky.
What really sets these holidays apart is our expert hosts. From historians and astronomers to horticulturalists and chefs who cannot wait to share their insights with you. You can also look forward to live demonstrations and talks tailored to each subject. And with the details taken care of, you can focus on enjoying the experience from the moment you leave home.
