📍Dominion Theatre, London
When in London, we always recommend a visit to the West End 🎭 Sister Act, currently running at the Dominion Theatre comes highly recommended! We were blessed with seeing Beverley Knight as the leading lady, alongside Lemar, Lee Mead, Ruth Jones and Lesley Joseph! What a cast, what a musical 🎶
This is good advice from Rick Steves! We already have groups booking in Rome for 2025. The city is expecting a very high volume of visitors due to the Jubilee 🇮🇹
What a beautiful sight! ❤️🤍💙

Congratulations Chewton Glen Hotel & Spa!
We’ve had the most fabulous day at Chewton Glen Hotel & Spa hosted by Iconic Luxury Hotels and Hotel Excelsior Venice Lido Resort. The day began with a cooking class at The Kitchen at Chewton Glen with Alessandro, the executive chef from the Hotel Excelsior Lido Resort, making Ravioli stuffed with red shrimps from the Adriatic Sea, followed by Tiramisu - did you know Tiramisu originates from Treviso? So the Venetians are very proud of it! We then had time to see more of this beautiful hotel, which we highly recommend to our clients!
We were very sad to hear of the recent fire at Maggie Jones's, which is one of our favourite restaurants in London. However, we were not disappointed by their sister restaurant, La Poule au Pot in Belgravia! Following the sad news of the fire, we moved our group booking to La Poule au Pot who were extremely accommodating, the staff were so helpful and the food was excellent! We wouldn't hesitate in recommending and we will be certain to use for our clients again the future.
Ladies and gentlemen, the moment we've all been waiting for... it's Friday

This is exciting news for London! Time to dust off the skates, as Andrew Lloyd Webber's famous musical returns, for the first time since January 2002! I'm sure we will have visitors queuing up to see this 🛼🎭
Starlight Express | Troubadour Wembley Park Theatre | Official Tickets Returning to the London stage for the first time in over 20 years, Andrew Lloyd Webber’s STARLIGHT EXPRESS opens Summer 2024 in the specially designed Starlight Auditorium at Troubadour Wembley Park.

Today, we have another group arriving from New Zealand; 16 students, accompanied by 3 teachers arriving in Athens ready to embark on their Classics Tour of Greece & Italy. Their tour begins with 3 nights in Athens, before embarking on a road trip across mainland Greece, before flying to one of the small Greek Islands in a weeks time 🇬🇷
As the UK tour came to an end this week for Jo Seagar and friends, I accompanied the group to Rome 🇮🇹 Having met up with their Italian hosts at Fiumicino Airport, I waved them off, where they will now spend a week in an Agriturismo in Umbria. I then headed into Rome to prepare for another group of NZ students arriving!
Afternoon Tea at The Ritz London is so special! 🥂🍰
After waving goodbye to James at the Chewton Glen, we headed to London for 2 nights at The Bailey's Hotel London. A pre-show dinner at La Poule au Pot, which was excellent, then on to Abba Voyage. A leisurely day yesterday before another special experience, which deserves a separate post of its own! Last night we dined at Princess Diana’s favourite Italian restaurant Da Mario’s, which we thought was a lovely way to end the UK part of the trip as we head to Rome! 🇮🇹 Big shout out to our 2 drivers, George & Jamie at Greys of Ely for looking after our group so well!
A few more from yesterday’s cookery class with James Martin!
This element of the tour for Jo Seagar and friends has been planned for many, many months. We love nothing more than creating life long memories for our clients and today was no exception! When Pam Young Travel - Designer of Holidays came to us and asked if we could arrange a James Martin cooking class, we were only too happy to oblige! It was a no brainer to include a stay at the stunning Chewton Glen Hotel, where we had a beautiful dinner in the Wine Room last night, followed by a private cooking class and lunch with the lovely James! Thank you also to the staff at The Kitchen at Chewton Glen today who looked after us all so well ❤️
Jo Seagar and friends have been busy touring the length and breadth of the country since I was with them last weekend, and today I met up with them at Chewton Glen Hotel & Spa! We arranged pre-dinner drinks in Tinkers Bar, followed by a private dinner in the wine room this evening, which was stunning! It’s been an absolute pleasure working with Pam Young Travel - Designer of Holidays to make this tour special ✨
We welcomed New Zealand’s TV celebrity, cook and author, Jo Seagar and friends on Friday for a 13-day tour of the UK, starting in Edinburgh 🏴 It’s been an absolute pleasure working with Pam Young Travel - Designer of Holidays to create this very special tour. Tanya welcomed the group at Newcastle Airport and with trusted partner Greys of Ely, they took the beautiful drive up the Northumberland coast to Edinburgh. After a good nights sleep, day 2 began with a delightful foodie walking tour of Leith Port with Nell Nelson of Edinburgh Food Safari, followed by a visit to Edinburgh Castle with Afternoon Tea and an underground ghost tour in the evening 👻
After a delayed and eventful journey to Edinburgh yesterday, they day was spent preparing for the arrival of our group. As the saying goes ‘proper planning and preparation, prevents p!*$ poor performance’! Here’s a few photos taken around Edinburgh yesterday 🏴
Off Tanya goes to Scotland to meet a small VIP group from New Zealand. Last year, our client approached us with an idea, which developed into something that, they could only describe as a ‘dream’. Late night conversations between the NZ agent and us went along the lines of “if only you could make it happen”. So the challenge was set! It’s not been easy, it’s taken some negotiating, and meticulous planning, but tomorrow this group of travellers arrive and we are beyond excited to be making that ‘dream’ come true. We’ve created a tour, which will provide them with memories to last a lifetime! First stop Edinburgh…keep following to see where their tour takes them! 🏴 🇳🇿
We love receiving messages like this from corporate clients!
Yesterday afternoon, a client of one of our NZ partner agencies was due to arrive in Berlin. We had arranged an airport meet & greet with private transfer to the hotel. However, said client wasn’t on said flight!
We made contact with the traveller via WhatsApp who only had 2% battery! We quickly established the client was booked onto a later flight. We then notified our driver the client would be a no show and arranged another driver to meet & greet the client from the later flight…all done within 30 mins. At 10pm last night the client messaged to say they had made it to the hotel and were very grateful for our help!
We represent our partner agencies who are on the other side of the world in different time zones, and this is a prime example of how we can be there for their clients, when they can’t
Ready to start day 2 of IMEX before flying back to London this evening. We work with travel retailers all over the world planning and operating their client’s trips to the UK & Europe. Due to the many miles between us, we rarely get the opportunity to meet, but yesterday was one of those golden opportunities! Susan had travelled all the way from New Zealand for IMEX, so it was lovely to finally meet in person. Susan and her team put their trust in us with their clients, and we are forever grateful for all the business they send our way 🇳🇿
