Multi-centre

If you’re going back and forth on where to go on your next family holiday, stop scrolling and get your passport ready for a week-long South African city and safari itinerary designed for all your squad. First stop, Cape Town, for energy, ambiance, outdoor capers, that famous colony of penguins and one of the new Seven Wonders of Nature, Table Mountain. Then a flight to the Eastern Cape, to Kariega Game Reserve, where you’ll be meeting the giraffes who are too tall for selfies and the leopards who are too fast for photos.

Explore ever-pleasing Cape Town at your own speed whether that’s diving into its famed foodie scene or following the coastal road in a 1950s sidecar. For contrast, head to the Eastern Cape for a Big Five safari that’s as diverse as it is hassle free.

Combining the buzz of Chania with the chilled-out vibes of Elounda, it’s the best of both. Vibrant Chania makes a great starting point. Whether you want to shop, sunbathe, sightsee or sip cocktails until dawn, there’s something for everyone here. After the excitement of the island’s second-biggest city, the sleepy fishing village of Elounda with its stunning views and laid-back tavernas comes at the perfect time.

Step out your comfort zone and head to Vietnam on this two-week adventure with all the family. Whether you want to bring your child's history lessons to life or you're travelling with a teenager that has a never ending appetite, this itinerary has something for everyone. Hopping between Vietnam's more modern cities like Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi, the historical sites of Hue and the emerald green waters of Halong Bay, you'll get to tick off all the main sights of Vietnam.

Mauritius shares the reputation for stunning beaches, excellent diving and fabulous beach resorts that you'll find on other islands within the Indian Ocean, but here there's a little more to do if going beyond the beach is on your holiday wishlist. It's famed for it's championship golf courses, buzzing markets and street food from it's diverse cultural heritage and the simplicity of getting around the island to explore.

Saint Lucia and Grenada might sit close together on the map, but they offer completely different flavours. Saint Lucia is dramatic and mountainous, with iconic Piton peaks, lush rainforests, and a buzz of adventure. Grenada, on the other hand, is softer and slower, known as the Spice Island for its fragrant nutmeg groves, combined with the allure of white-sand beaches and laid-back charm. By pairing them up, you get the best of both worlds: Saint Lucia’s energy with Grenada’s ease. One holiday, two islands, twice the Caribbean magic.

If you’re looking for a limoncello, spaghetti and gelato-fuelled getaway, this Amalfi Coast twin-centre is for you. Ischia is a lesser-known gem where breathtaking views, natural spas and beautiful beaches intertwine. Sorrento on the other hand is cliff-side beauty at its finest, with picture-perfect views, designer shops and atmospheric piazzas.

Thailand is a foodie's heaven and this itinerary will make sure you get to try all the authentic specialities on offer. Start your journey in Bangkok, an iconic city buzzing with life that's known for its diverse street food. Head north to Chiang Mai, where the food delicacies are influenced by its rich culture. In complete contrast, you'll travel south to Khao Lak for a tropical beach retreat where you can enjoy jungle life and explore the underwater world. There'll be plenty of opportunities along the way to taste and even have a go at creating some classic Thai dishes. ​

On a holiday of contrasts, begin with an urban adventure in Kuala Lumpur before flying to Malaysian Borneo for old-world charm and exceptional food in Kota Kinabalu. Then you’ll retreat to the rainforest where orangutans, monkeys, and Borneo elephants thrive before spending your final few days winding down in a luxury beach resort.

Antigua is bijou but mixes it up from coast to coast when it comes to vibes. On this holiday, you’ll see two sides of the story: the northwest which is all about calm beaches, and the east with its Atlantic-shaped beauty. Splitting your stay means you’ll spend less time on the road and more time seeing the sights on both coasts, and you can also combine both modest and magnificent resorts to get the most out of your holiday.

Sit back and relax as you make your way to the best of Canada’s glittering cities the old-fashioned way, travelling in daylight to see the best of the scenery and disembarking to stay in beautiful hotels. Take in Toronto’s cosmopolitan neighbourhoods, Ottawa's charms, Montreal’s multitude of museums, and Quebec City’s World Heritage-listed old town. None of the railway journeys exceed five hours, giving you ample time to explore the cities. Upgrade to our Capitals of Canada by Rail Deluxe Itinerary, staying at Fairmont hotels and travelling business class service on VIA Rail.

Indonesia has thousands of islands, but this trip keeps things focused on three that fit perfectly together: Bali, Gili Meno, and Lombok. They’re close enough that each feels like the next chapter, not a whole new book.

If you’re looking for a holiday that hits the Aus hot spots and is ace for first timers, this is the one. You’ll hop along the east coast, from Melbourne all the way up to the Whitsundays (of picture-perfect islands fame) and Port Douglas (of reef-meets-jungle fame) and back down to Sydney – a city with an embarrassment of landmark riches.

Dubai is a great stop-off point en route to the Maldives. There's so much to do here. You can head out to the sand dunes, see all the sights, head up the tallest building in the world and shop to your heart's content. On this multi-centre you get the best of both worlds, the vibrancy of the city and then the peacefulness of an idyllic, tiny and tranquil Maldives island.

Experience the diverse landscapes of South Africa as you spend quality time exploring the cosmopolitan city of Cape Town before heading to the Winelands for good food and wine tastings, all set against a backdrop of vineyard-clad mountains.

Add a fiercely protected heritage that’s been shaped by these wonders over millennia, and you’ve got one of the most fascinating far-flung destinations going. On this duo-of-islands adventure, we’ll take you to the vast island of Hawai’i with its multiple climate zones (10 of the world's 14 climate zones across the state), geological marvels and jet-black sand beaches. Then it’s over to Maui where the volcanoes are a little sleepier, the valleys a thousand shades of green and the beaches oh-so spectacular. We’ve included car hire on both islands so you can go at your own pace, stop when and where you want and let the vibes influence your adventure.

Spend a few days exploring Cape Town before sipping your way through the Winelands. Finish your journey with an exhilarating safari, seeking out the Big Five in Greater Kruger National Park. Using quality accommodation throughout and providing excellent value, this itinerary is the perfect introduction to South Africa. If you wish to linger longer, you can also extend your trip to see the mighty Victoria Falls or relax on the beaches of Mauritius.

The three-day experience at Elephant Hills immerses you in the natural beauty of Khao Sok National Park before you head to Khao Lak and The Sands – great for a mix of lazing on the beach, by the pool and shopping at local markets.

Hawai’i’s regularly sunny skies, short and sharp showers, and clean-as-it-can-be air create the best conditions going for those sweeping (often double or circular) arcs of colour. The vivid hues of Maui’s rainbow eucalyptus trees, the 50-shades-of-green rainforests, sands that go beyond the standard golden, and most importantly, a vibrant heritage passed through countless generations only add to the colour palette of life in Hawai’i. Car hire is included on each island so the pace can be set by how you feel, what you want to see and when you want to see it.

Go at a pace that's not too rushed with enough time to see all the key sites and even add a few organised excursions. If you have more or less time, talk to us and we can recommend an alternative itinerary and change the number of nights in each place to meet your requirements.

For us as visitors to this sacred land, it’s about exploring the islands with mālama (care), being low key and local, and treating the landscape, heritage and people with respect. We’ve created a holiday to O’ahu and Kaua’i that inspires you to take on a slower pace and connect with communities and the landscapes they call home. We’ve set aside four nights on each island, but this is all about taking it easy so idling on either island (or both) a little longer is heartily encouraged.

Ubud puts you right at the heart of the cultural heart of this beautiful island. Ubud is famed for its arty vibe with a host of coffee shops and galleries showcasing the talents of local artists and craftspeople. Then onto the resorts of Seminyak on the southwest coast or Nusa Dua or Sanur on the south-east coast. Wherever you choose you'll find plenty of elegant beachside retreats.

Drive south from San Francisco to Los Angeles on a coast-hugging trip that scores all the big sights. Take your time on the Slow Coast, then pause for a few nights in Monterey. Feel the sunshine on your face and the wind in your hair as you head south via the incredible Big Sur to stay in Santa Barbara before the final leg of your road trip brings you to the incomparable Los Angeles.

Start with San Francisco’s creativity and big sights, then take in Las Vegas’ bright lights and fun-filled casinos before experiencing LA’s glamorous and sun-kissed lifestyle. Sightseeing, nightlife, theme parks, endless entertainment beckons...

This is a sensational Canadian road trip, just as scenic and exciting as you imagine. Soaring mountains and bright blue lakes hold challenges for adventurers, and there are sweeping vistas from high-up vantage points for those who want to sit back and enjoy the view. On this self-guided road trip, you’ll hop westwards from Calgary until you reach gorgeous Vancouver on the Pacific coast.

Double up on the adventure and see two of Canada cities in one go on a self-guided trip that takes you from glistening glass skyscrapers to the stunning Great Outdoors. Toronto offers a fusion of cultures with beers on tap, jerk tacos and souvlaki at your fingertips, quirky bookstores and independent boutiques. Next, swap Toronto’s CN Tower and design museums for Vancouver’s Douglas firs and Pacific Ocean. Here, takes any turn you want; wet and wild rides alongside humpback whales, aerial strides over rainforest bridges or nostalgic strolls through Gastown’s lamp-lit streets.

Indonesia is a place where mystical temples meet beach-blessed coastlines, where jungles buzz with life and islands hum with energy. By hopping between destinations, you’ll uncover rice terraces one day, coral reefs the next, and sleepy villages soon after. Best of all, we make it effortless to move from place to place, so every seamless transfer feels like part of the adventure.

Start in sensational Delhi and Jaipur where flexible optional activities include rickshaw rides, hot air balloon rides and interactive local experiences. Then off to Sariksa Tiger Reserve where you may spot the regal Bengal tiger on private game drives and discover hidden jungle forts while acting out your Indiana Jones dreams. End at Agra in a hotel with views of the Taj Mahal. If there’s one thing to get you out of bed it's ivory-white facades, glittering in the sunrise.

Step back in time to the golden age of road travel on one of the world’s famous highways, Route 66. Your epic 2000-mile journey will be full of kitsch and quirky Americana.

This itinerary takes you between ripe produce-growing pastures, cinematic landscapes and historical towns.

This is the Hawaiian trip of dreams: you’ll visit all four of the state’s main islands. Enjoy the beachfront vibes of lively Waikiki in O'ahu, step into the Jurassic Park landscapes of Kaua'i, see the Island of Hawai'i’s active volcanoes and go from valley to beach in Maui. We also have shorter two- and three-island itineraries.

See two different sides of Sri Lanka – the Cultural Triangle with its epic heritage monuments and natural landmarks, and the shimmering east coast where there's little more to do than swim, snorkel and soak up the sun. Every Kuoni tour in Sri Lanka will have a private chauffeur-guide. More than just a driver, your guide will become a constant companion – knowledgeable about everything to do with Sri Lanka; you’ll find yourself in endless conversation. They know exactly what you need and when.

The grit and gloss of New York meet the glamour of Las Vegas in this whirlwind, two-city trip. Spend a few memorable days and nights in NYC. Then you’ve got a six-hour flight to rest before hitting The Strip in the fabulous Las Vegas, where you can see the Big Apple all over again at New York New York Hotel & Casino (or visit Paris, Venice, or Egypt) and gawp at Vegas’ eclectic mix of themed hotels.

We always recommend a twin centre holiday in Bali so that you really get to experience the very best of the island. The beautiful interior is not to be missed and a few days here amongst the rural landscapes, paddy fields and the cultural hotstpot that is Ubud is definitely a highlight. There are a few beach destinations to combine with Ubud, but here we've opted to twin with a southeast coast resort, making this a great combination for a restorative holiday chilling on the beach or a bit of an adrenaline rush with some watersports.

Bali is Indonesia's 'Island of the Gods' and it's aptly named - this is a land of stunning natural beauty and friendly people who are proud of their ancient traditions and spirituality. You'll find the beach resorts that Bali is best known for on its southern shores, but there's so much more to Bali than its coastline. Venture inland, amid the lush rice terraces and dramatic valleys and you can cycle through rice terraces, go temple-hopping and take time out at wellbeing retreats. To really make the most of your stay on the island, we recommend at least 10 days and combining two or three places to stay as you travel around the island. During that time relax on the beach in the south or in the north (the north tends slightly wilder in feel and a bit more off the beaten track). For the more active, an early morning trek to see the sunrise from the top of Mount Batur is not to be missed, but other things to do to give you a sense of the culture of Bali include cooking classes, exploring local temples, shopping for local crafts and sampling local spa treatments that feature at most hotels.

This trip is one of our favourite two-stop holidays. You’ll begin in glittering Singapore, shopping on Orchard Road, taking in the views and post-sundown light show at Gardens by the Bay and sampling some of the best food in the Far East before heading for beautiful Bali for a wellbeing retreat at the all-pool villa The Elysian.

Some arrive daunted by its chaos, but most leave thrilled by its vibrancy, tradition and culture – it's the classic city and beach combo where you can stay among skyscrapers before relaxing on the golden sands. And of the beaches, Hua Hin is more accessible than some as it's on the north-western shores of the Gulf of Thailand, around three hours by road from Bangkok.

There's three sides to this Thailand tale: two city stays and some beach bliss on a sun-kissed isle. Following a few frenetic days in Bangkok eating, temple hopping and market exploring, head north to Chiang Mai a sacred city surrounded by rolling hills. Then it's time to do tone down the adventure and just chill on Koh Samui's sandy shores.

If you’re travelling all the way to the South Pacific, you want the miles to feel worth it, and French Polynesia absolutely rises to the promise of something unforgettable. On this holiday, we suggest breaking things up with a couple of well-placed stopovers, so the whole trip flows beautifully, stopping at LA en route to a classic pairing of Moorea and Bora Bora. Moorea gives you space to settle into island life, with lush mountains, quiet villages, and easy-to-explore coastlines. Bora Bora then delivers the moment you’ve pictured from the start: an overwater villa above a turquoise lagoon and the sense of being somewhere utterly extraordinary.

Relax on a golden beach in Umhlanga and learn about the moving history of the Battlefields. Finish your journey looking for the Big Five at Rhino Ridge, located in South Africa's oldest game reserve and famed for its conservation programmes.

Explore the contrasting islands of Alonissos and Skiathos, two amazing gems in the Greek Sporades archipelago, each with its unique charm. Sail away from a backdrop of thick green pine forests and head out on the open seas, keeping your eyes peeled for the next secluded cove to come into sight. Leave behind the tranquil beauty of Alonissos, famed for its serene, unspoiled landscapes, and prepare for the vibrant allure of Skiathos. Wander through the lively Old Harbour, breathe in the fresh pine-scented air, and marvel at the crystal-clear waters. Embrace the adventure of discovering these diverse islands, where each moment is a blend of idyllic landscapes and cultural richness.

This is Italy at its most irresistible. Wander hilltop towns, trek through rolling countryside, savour Tuscan truffles and lose yourself among Florence’s Renaissance masterpieces. Linking the Gothic elegance of Perugia, the rural calm of the Tuscan countryside and the cultural fireworks of Florence, this journey is all about contrast, flavour and taking the time to enjoy the best of central Italy.

Sicily is an island that invites you to explore, whether that’s wandering through ancient streets, standing on the slopes of an active volcano or discovering quiet coastal corners shaped by centuries of history. This journey takes you across the island’s most exciting highlights, blending lively cities, timeless ruins and dramatic natural landscapes with moments to slow down and soak it all in. From the raw power of Mount Etna to elegant seaside towns and hill villages, each stop reveals a different side of Sicily’s rich character.

Stay a few days in Kuala Lumpur to discover the cosmopolitan capital's famous skyscrapers, idyllic parklands and incredible street food scene. Then head to the majestic Borneo for some rain forest explorations, rest, relaxation and stunning landscapes.

Rail travel and Italy combine to make a pairing that’s absolutely packed with old-world romance, stunning scenes and eco-credentials.

Get ready to fall in love with Southern Italy's most characterful corner.

Rip rocking rides, lands of wonder and imagination, shopping ‘till you drop and glitzy beach days are the order of the day on this two-stop holiday. Begin your adventure in Orlando, staying on site at Universal Orlando Resort and soaking up the all-encompassing joyous atmosphere of the parks before heading south to Miami on a Brightline train. After a quick 3½ hours on the train you'll be able to explore heritage neighbourhoods and see and be seen on Miami Beach.

There’s no need to play favourites when it comes to picking your Turks & Caicos stop off spot. We’ve set up the perfect pair: Providenciales and South Caicos. Across a week, they’ll reveal what makes this cluster of 40 plus islands so special. You’ve got Provo, the epicentre of all that’s going on (but it’s still uber laidback), and South Caicos, where sleepy days are only interrupted by some of the world’s best under-the-sea sojourns.

Why choose between two idyllic Greek isles when you can visit them both in one blissful trip? This island‑hopping escape takes you from Santorini, home to superstar sunsets and dramatic caldera views, to super‑sophisticated Mykonos, where chic beaches, stylish dining and an unmistakable buzz await. With hand‑picked hotels and seamless transfers, this tailor‑made multi‑centre lets you enjoy the very best of the Greek islands without having to worry about the logistics.

This is a great intro-to-Aus holiday that hits a trio of classic hot spots across Victoria, New South Wales and Queensland but throws in Western Australia twist on the way. You’ll fly to Perth (perhaps making the most of the direct service from London) and use it as your jump off point for the rest of your adventure Down Under.

This is Vietnam with must-see highlights and clever little detours. You’ll start in Ho Chi Minh City for urban energy, delicious street food, and war-era history, then slow things down on the coast in Quy Nhon, travel by luxury rail towards Hoi An, head inland to Mai Chau for mountain scenery, and finish with Hanoi and a Halong Bay cruise. It’s a full and satisfying way to see Vietnam because you’re not just ticking off the famous names. You’re getting the cities, the coast, the countryside, the UNESCO icons, and the quieter places that make the trip feel personal.

There’s plenty to pack into a few days in Bangkok, from a cruise down the Chao Phraya River to exploring Wat Pho and the Grand Palace. The food scene here is incredible, so a night market tour or cooking class is a must. Phuket is Thailand’s ultimate beach resort playground – an emerald island of golden sands and neon-lit night-time revelry. It’s also the gateway to the Andaman Sea, where colourful long-tail boats bob in the sunshine and towering limestone karsts rise out of the water.

Experience the hustle and bustle of Istanbul and the relaxing beach vibes of Antalya on this multi-centre. We recommend spending at least 3 nights soaking up the sights of Turkey’s capital. A place where Ottoman traditions influence the present day, it’s brimming with history and culture. There’s a never-ending list of things to see and do in Istanbul so Antalya make a welcome addition for some beach-focused relaxation. Most visitors spend at least 3 nights here with its stunning stretch of mountain-framed coastline, luxe resorts dotted with swimming pools and charming old towns that provide a blast from the past.

This unhurried journey brings together two very different sides of Portugal, pairing the energy and heritage of Lisbon with the natural beauty and relaxed pace of Madeira. Begin in the capital, where historic neighbourhoods, riverside viewpoints and a thriving food scene invite exploration, before flying to the Atlantic island of Madeira for a gentler rhythm shaped by dramatic landscapes, ocean views and year‑round springlike weather.

Holidays to the Italian Lakes feel like a deliciously clandestine north Italian affair, in a fairytale world of lemon trees and bougainvillea, where castles and Italianate gardens sit on their own islands and chalky-coloured houses almost fall into vibrant blue glacial waters. Some lakes are studded with luxurious resorts and the private homes of European aristocracy and Hollywood celebrities, while others back onto mountains and invite you to play on the water.

This classic city and beach combination is the answer to why Thailand is one of our most popular Far East destinations. A few nights in Bangkok is plenty of time to take a tuk-tuk ride, find yourself in a spectacular urban palace, have a three-course dinner on the river and try every kind of street food you find. Koh Samui is a crowd pleaser with great weather almost all year round and pale golden beaches. You could easily spend day after day doing nothing more than devouring amazing Thai food and sinking your feet into dazzling white sand to the easy pace of island life.

Dubai is a city like no other. Break up your journey to Phuket and spend three nights here. Then you’ll be ready to relax in chic villas that cascade down the hillside in Phuket, each with its own infinity pool and jaw-dropping ocean views. From here you can trek to local temples or learn to cook Thai food.

This twin-centre gives you the best kind of contrast: Istanbul first, with Bosphorus views, bazaars, boats, and brilliant food, then Ananea Madivaru in the Maldives, for a private-pool island stay. It’s a clever pairing because the energy is front-loaded. You explore first, then fly on to the Maldives for beach, reef, spa, and warm-water downtime. We’ll make the moving parts feel simple, with Istanbul’s city stay, the onward flight to Malé, and Ananea’s short seaplane transfer all stitched together beautifully.

Pairing Dubai with the Seychelles makes real sense if you want an Indian Ocean escape with more contrast and really make the most of a flight layover. You spend three nights in Dubai first, turning the outbound route into a proper city-and-beach start, easing you into your holiday with warm evenings, world-class restaurants, architecture, culture, shopping, and sun-soaked time by a pristine pool. Then you have a full week in the Seychelles, where the feel changes completely. Green hills, Creole cooking, Beau Vallon’s broad bay, and the chance to add a cooking class, a forest walk, or an island day trip to make this a beach holiday with way more to talk about than the sunlounger situation.

With so much variety on offer, a visit to the Seychelles is certainly not a case of once you’ve seen one island, you’ve seen them all. For an ultraluxe, twin-island experience we highly recommend staying at the Constance sister properties: Constance Ephelia on Mahé, which overlooks a pristine marine park, and the idyllic hideaway, Constance Lemuria on Pralin’s west coast.

Mahe is home to Victoria, the country’s bustling capital and a host of smaller towns and villages, while mist-cloaked Silhouette is almost untouched. The only signs of human habitation on this protected island are the small village of La Passe and Niva Labriz Seychelles.
