City Breaks That Embody our Y Factors (and Why You Would Choose One)

City breaks are the perfect way to experience the excitement of travel while still being able to satisfy the craving for modern-day conveniences. When booking our clients’ trips, we use our Y Factors to understand the driving forces behind why people travel: whether it be personal growth, cultural exploration, physical challenge, social connection, spiritual fulfilment, or lots of delicious food. We find that city breaks often embody a lot of our Y Factors, making them a popular choice for many travellers.

Let’s look at the Y Factor ‘culture and community’ for example. City breaks offer cultural exploration in droves. From visiting world-renowned museums to experiencing local festivals and events, there is no shortage of opportunities to immerse oneself in a new culture. We also love city breaks for our foodies, as the ‘taste’ Y Factor is perfectly catered to in cities, where there are endless options for every type of dining experience.

We work with dozens of incredible hotels in cities all around the world, and we could fill whole novels with examples of those that embody our Y Factors, so pick up the phone or drop us a line if this is something that interests you. In the meantime, the following examples are some we’re loving right now because they emulate exactly what our clients are searching for!
