Where Are You Heading For the End of Year?
As we meander into the second half of the year, we’re starting to think about our end of year travel plans. How are we all going to bring in 2024? Underneath an umbrella with a cocktail in hand? Making magical memories with loved ones? Topping up our cultural cups in Europe’s museums and galleries? Or perhaps taking to the slopes in a winter wonderland? Whatever your travel style or preference, we can help you plan an epic experience too. Allow us to curate your dream getaway to ensure you finish the year with a bang!
BEACH HOLIDAY
Nothing says summer like a trip to the beach. There’s something special about being by the ocean – the rhythm of the waves, the warmth of the sun – that helps you disconnect from the daily grind. What’s more, seaside trips are usually universally loved. They work for families, couples, friends, and even solo travellers. So, whether you simply want to relax with your feet in the sand and a book in your hand, or you want to immerse yourself in the deep blue with learn to surf or dive lessons, there’s a perfect beach destination for you. From the undiscovered islands of Indonesia to the crowd-pleasing shorelines of Hawaii, and beyond, we can help you discover the most fitting beach haven for your end-of-year flop & drop.
SNOW HOLIDAYS
Are you a ski fanatic keen to hit the slopes, like a couple of our Y Travel team? Or does the thought of a snow holiday conjure images of walking through a snow-covered village with a steaming hot chocolate in hand instead? Either way, a trip to a frozen wonderland is a magical way to bring in the year in style. We can show you the best Alpine destinations for skiing, reveal some of our favourite tucked-away towns for romantic winter jaunts, and of course, let you in on the best places to visit for a one-chilly-stop shop that will please every member of your party.
EUROPEAN WINTER
A European winter is something we strongly believe those who love to travel should experience at least once in their lifetime. Not only is it a vastly different experience to winter in the southern hemisphere, but Europe is usually less crowded at the end of the year than during the summer months. Then there’s the truly dazzling aspects – like snow dusted streetscapes, Christmas markets bursting with delicious treats, hearty and warming winter meals, and plenty of indoor attractions, such as museums and galleries, to ward off the chill. From England to Eastern Europe, we know all the tips for making this time of year the best to visit!
SAFARI GETAWAY
A bucket-list holiday for many, safaris are an incomparable travel experience for those looking for an end of year extravaganza. From the iconic, covetable plains of Africa to the lesser-known wilds of
Sri Lanka or India, or even consider a white safari in Antarctica. There’s a mind-blowing repertoire of safari-style experiences around the world to choose from. Allow us to be your guides, as we help you track down the perfect safari for your style.
FAMILY AFFAIR
Traditionally the end of the year (especially over the festive period) is a special time to catch up with loved ones and enjoy quality moments together. Sometimes grandma’s house is the perfect setting, but when it’s not, there’s a whole wide world of spacious villas, private resorts, and luxury accommodation offerings conducive to warm-fuzzy feelings for the whole fam. You take care of the invite list and leave the rest of the details (and fuss) to us!
