Introducing our new Tour Plus Collection, designed to enhance your holiday and enrich your escorted experience. From river and ocean cruises to pre and post-tour stays, Tour Plus adds extra layers of discovery while maintaining the care and quality of an expertly planned itinerary. It’s quite simply, a Tour and More.
With over 40 options, finding your perfect combination is effortless - whether that means relaxing on sun-soaked beaches, enjoying a cruise, or adding extra sightseeing to your itinerary.
Make the very most of your precious time away, adding pre or post extensions to your Classic or Premier tour, for when you just want to escape home for that little bit longer. Or, why not get a taster of a cruise or enjoy a musical event by combining them with sightseeing on one of our Tour Plus Cruise or Tour Plus Event holidays?
On many of our optional extensions, you’ll have free, unaccompanied time to explore at your own pace. Return to that museum you fancied visiting, linger a little longer in the bar, or simply find a sunbed, switch off and relax. Each journey will feel completely and uniquely yours. If you do happen to need us, our operations team are on call 24/7 and we have local representatives on hand too.
Our Tour Plus collection opens up a world of new and enticing destinations, many of which can’t be found on any of our other tours. From glitzy Marbella and the idyllic Aegean Islands to the historic Panama Canal, there’s an even wider world of wish-list experiences just waiting to be explored.
Embrace the best of both worlds with tours that combine a cruise with nights on land. These carefully chosen cruise itineraries blend seamlessly with our award-winning escorted tours in wish-list destinations. Each Tour Plus Cruise holiday is guided by knowledgeable local experts who enrich your journey with fascinating stories and authentic perspectives on land. Then, whilst on the water, our hand-picked cruise partners ensure outstanding hospitality and comfort aboard both elegant ocean liners and charming intimate vessels.
From Greek island sailings to Caribbean adventures, and classic Nile cruises through Egypt’s timeless landscapes, these tours include time on the water as part of the journey, blending guided exploration ashore with the comfort and calm of cruising life.
