BOOK NOW with confidence At the time of putting this magazine together we still do not have a date on when and to where overseas travel can recommence.

There have been numerous comments by government officials and the media that ‘now is not the time to book a holiday’. We do not agree with this statement and whilst we cannot guarantee holidays for this summer will go ahead as normal, we can offer reassurance and guarantees that if you book a holiday and it is impacted by border restrictions or the pandemic all of the operators we work with are offering flexibility to amend free of charge or an offer of a full refund.

At the time of booking we can go through the operator terms and conditions, talk you through what would happen in the event of any changes to your holiday and make sure you are 100% happy to commit prior to paying a deposit.

We of course understand if you would prefer to wait until you know borders are open and holidays can go ahead but if you would like to book now and have something to look forward to in the hope that travel will resume sooner rather than later then please get in touch as we can talk you through the terms and give you assurance that even if it is impacted that you will be able to change your booking or get your money back.

We already have so many people booked to go away in 2022 and are seeing regular bookings coming through, we know as soon as the government make any positive announcements of the re-opening of borders the demand for Summer 2021 will be huge.

If you hope to get away this summer why not get ahead of the surge and book now – with so many great offers, deals and low deposits, when booking with us you can still book NOW knowing we have you covered both advice wise and financially.

DUBAI And All Its Wonders!

From beaches that fringe the warm waters of the Arabian Gulf bathed in year-round sunshine, to the architectural marvels that punctuate the skyline and define the destination, Dubai is irresistibly dynamic, with some of the world’s most unique and modern attractions.

1. Visit Downtown Dubai, packed with incredible sites, including an actual dinosaur skeleton inside a shopping mall and the tallest building on the planet, Burj Khalifa. At The Top, Burj Khalifa. Dubai holidays aren’t complete without a visit to the tallest building in the world.

The experience starts with the lift up to level 125, where you can marvel at the view from the 380-degree enclosed observatory. Then you can choose to go up a little more, to the 148th floor at 555 meters, where you step onto the world’s highest outdoor observation deck.

2. Check out super-cool Kite Beach if you’re into water-sports.

3. Wander the lane ways of the atmospheric gold and spice souks of old Dubai, piled high with aromatic and glittering treats.

4. International restaurants and top global chefs are in abundance, but if you want to try Emirati cuisine, you’ll sense a range of regional influences.

5. No holiday to Dubai however, would be complete without a desert safari. Hop into a 4x4 and leave the city behind as you head into the wilds of the desert - go dune ‘bashing’ or camel-riding before sunset, then enjoy remote Bedouin-style camps with fireside tales and delicious dinners.

Atlantis, The Palm

*****

Atlantis, The Palm offers other-worldly luxury, combining top drawer skyline views with a never-ending list of facilities, including free access to an underwater aquarium and a waterpark.

This hotel’s pink, palatial structure towers over its neighbours, with soaring turrets and a distinctive Arabian archway. It’s bagged an exclusive spot on the Palm Jumeirah Island’s crescent, which means you can expect breathtaking views of the Dubai skyline and the Arabian Gulf.

Great News! Aruba is back on the UK's travel corridor list. That means you can go on holiday without having to quarantine when you get back to the UK. Where pristine white sand meets the turquoise sea, Aruba is the happy home to some of the world’s most beautiful beaches.

Think palm-fringed beaches with powder-soft sand backed by intimate and stylish resorts and superb allinclusive properties that offer excellent family-friendly activities, and you’ve got Aruba; an exotic paradise located deep in the southern Caribbean Sea. Reliably near-perfect weather all-yearround with ideal tanning conditions, unwaveringly sunny skies, warm temperatures, cooling breezes, low humidity and some of the best white powdery-sand beaches in the World.

Engage in a myriad of fun activities or just lie around relaxing on the beaches.

You’ll find the overwhelming majority of Arubans are genuinely friendly and welcoming and most speak English.

Come find out why the license plates say they are “One Happy Island”.

“Solo ta briya.” The sun is shining. It’s something the Arubans say more than anyone else in the Caribbean.

The island is also alive with sights, sounds, and culinary delights found on no other Caribbean island. With friendly people eager to welcome and embrace you. With surprising natural

wonders to explore, and countless ways to relax, indulge your wild side, and find happiness however you like it.

If you’re looking for a beach with the wow factor, Palm Beach is Aruba’s flagship resort. A three-kilometre stretch of breathtaking tropical coastline on the north-west of the island. It’s gradually filled up with luxury, high-rise hotels that back onto the beach. Add to that, a line-up of chic restaurants, plus luxury shops that could give 5th Avenue or Bond Street a run for their money.

Hugging the coastline is J.E. Irausquin Boulevard, Palm Beach’s main thoroughfare. It’s crammed with international restaurants, buzzing bars, and is also home to Palm Beach Plaza Mall, Aruba’s biggest shopping centre. Aside from a parade of designer stores, it’s got a multiplex cinema and a bowling alley. And since Aruba is the Caribbean’s answer to Las Vegas, you’ll find a number of spectacular casinos along this main strip, too.

Aruba’s capital, Oranjestad, is just a 15-minute drive away. Filled with gabletopped Dutch colonial buildings, it’s unlike anywhere else in the Caribbean, and has become a regular port of call for luxury cruise liners. Around the harbour, there are several large shopping centres. Rising above the skyline is Fort Zoutman, an 18th-century fortress that houses the Historical Museum of Aruba.

Things to do…

For a small island, Aruba has so much to offer! Whether you plan on traversing the vast national park or you’re looking for the best photography spots on the island.

Aruba beaches are the sanctuaries, where you can walk, swim, and become one with the happy island.

The best beaches in Aruba are graced with pure alabaster sand and crystal clear waters. With gently lapping waves and softly waving fofoti trees. With surprises and natural beauty found nowhere else.

Outside the beach resorts, every stretch of sand on the island is open to all, and easily accessible by public transportation—just another reason why they’re considered some of the best beaches in the Caribbean.

Explore the calm sandy stretches of our west coast and the towering bocas to the north. Climb the windswept steps to the peak of Hooiberg hill, Aruba’s iconic mountaintop forged by ancient volcanoes.

In Arikok National Park, the beautiful Caribbean beaches give way to rugged deserts, towering green cacti, and limestone cliffs pounded smooth by waves and trade winds.

It’s where you’ll find Fontein Caves and the Natural Pool – two of our most unspoiled and unforgettable wonders.

RIU Palace Aruba

Divi Aruba All Inclusive

The luxury Riu Palace Aruba is as swish as they come, with five restaurants, a smart pool scene and a miles-long sandy beach on the doorstep. A white-sand beach unravels beside the Riu Palace Aruba – the boardwalk is steps away from the hotel’s huge pool.

Little luxuries pop up all over this beachside hotel. Breakfasts are washed down with Cava and the room menu features pads with a Jacuzzi® on the balcony.

Everything at the Divi Aruba All Inclusive hotel has a tropical feel – from the sea-view pools to the cabana-filled beach. Widescreen sea views are the big selling point at this beautiful hotel. Its pools, restaurants and even some rooms watch over the beach.

You’ll have a complimentary pass to the sister hotel, the Tamarijn Aruba All Inclusive, so a total of four pools, ten restaurants and eight bars are yours for the taking.

JERSEY

An island of rediscovery where landscapes are just waiting to be explored...

Tucked between the shores of England and France, Jersey is an underrated gem. This tiny island has kept its beautiful surroundings completely unspoiled over the years. Whether it’s the view from the battlements of a 12th-century castle, beach walks along Jersey’s unspoilt coastline or taking time to reflect while you watch the sun sink into the sea over St Ouen’s Bay. You’re sure to experience new gastronomic delights at the eateries of Jersey. Whether you choose a cosy tavern or a finedining restaurant, you’ll find as much food to feast on as you could ever desire. Further exploration of Jersey’s culinary delights will draw you towards its fish and farmer’s markets. Jersey’s night-life offers something for all. On one end of the spectrum, the cosy pubs are serving up craft beer and real ales. On the other end, there are the lively karaoke bars and city-style nightclubs that keep the music playing until the early hours!

Time To Explore...

Jersey has some beautiful hidden gems to explore and discover. One of Jersey’s most unique qualities is its dramatic tidal changes, which are one of the largest in the world. At low tide, the island almost doubles in size, Jersey’s natural playground expands and transforms.

Corbiere Lighthouse

Corbiere Lighthouse is an iconic landmark on Jersey’s rugged SouthWestern corner. Corbiere Lighthouse is a must-see attraction for all ages, with its strikingly white colour contrasting, with the dark rocks and choppy seas surrounding it making it a prime photo spot. During low tide the opportunity to walk to the lighthouse through a hidden causeway is revealed and, as you journey across, you’ll be able to spot rock pools and beaches along the way.

Portelet Bay and l’Île au Guerdain

Any nature lover who has an itch for adventure should visit Portelet Bay at low tide. This charming sandy beach has a tiny hidden island called l’Île au Guerdain that you can walk to when the tide drops. It’s known by the locals as ‘Janvrin’s Tomb’ due to it being the grave-site for a plagued sea captain, but nowadays it is a peaceful spot where you can take in the fresh ocean breeze

and feel at one with nature. While on the island why not stop off at Portelet Bay Café and try their delicious pizzas!

Plemont

Discover Jersey’s most beloved secret beach which is only exposed during low tide. Tucked away between high cliffs, Plemont can easily be missed by visitors due to its ‘off the beaten track’ location, with finding the beach being part of the fun! Endless adventures can be had at Plemont, from discovering the island’s largest caves which are home to tiny rock pool dwelling creatures, to keeping your eyes on the horizon where dolphins are frequently spotted.

Elizabeth Castle

Elizabeth Castle is a brilliant attraction for anyone wanting to learn more about Jersey’s turbulent and fascinating history, with adults and children alike being able to make the most out of their visit. At high tide you’ll be able to board the amphibious Castle Ferry that’ll take you across the water, whilst at low tide, similarly to Corbiere Lighthouse, you can take to the beach along the causeway and walk straight to the castle gates!

‘Moonwalks’ to Seymour Tower

As the tides pull away from the island, a whole other world of marine life can be discovered amongst the rocks and along the seabed. For a unique experience that uncovers the mysteries that lie amongst this

seemingly barren landscape, take a moonwalk to Seymour Tower with Jersey Walk Adventures.

The area where the moonwalks take place is an internationally recognised Ramsar wetlands site so taking this walk with your guide ensures that you are respecting the environment as you take in the rich marine and bird life along the way.

Take The Oyster Trail

Low tide also reveals one of Jersey’s most important spots for seafood lovers, the Oyster and Mussel beds, which are located off the coast of Grouville. If you want to go a little bit further than simply trying these mouth-watering morsels, you can explore the oyster traps for yourself during low tide. With the benefit of having a local guide, you’ll be able to learn about the cultivation and history of Jersey Oysters followed by the opportunity to sample them at The Seymour Pub and Restaurant!

Jersey’s Ramsar Sites

Jersey’s south-east coast is internationally recognised as a Ramsar protected wetlands site because of the important marine and bird life that lives and thrives here. Jersey also has three other Ramsar sites that you can visit during your stay on the island, including the picturesque Les Ecrehous and Les Minquires that you can discover by RIB on a Seafaris trip, spotting grey seals and dolphins if you’re lucky!

CONFIDENCE!

It has been a really exciting few weeks with many Ocean Cruise Lines creating UK water cruise itineraries for this summer after the industry was given the green light to resume service locally in May. It has been an incredibly tough year for the cruise industry with ships sitting vacant in coastal waters around the UK. Whilst these new itineraries are very different to what each cruise operator would have planned for a normal summer season and guests will miss the chance to visit overseas ports. They do offer an opportunity to get away on holiday again, enjoy being on a cruise ship again with the fine dining, excellent entertainment and a cocktail or two at Sundown.

I am sure all regular cruisers have missed this.

This is also a fantastic opportunity for first-time cruisers, those who might normally fly away on their holidays to try a cruise as a viable means to ‘get away’ this summer.

After a year of restrictions and for many, a large proportion of the year spent in lockdown, what better way to get away and take a break in the safety and security of still being close to home.

Health & Safety protocols will differ between operators with some asking for all customers to be fully vaccinated before being able to embark on a cruise, to others operating on a testing system throughout. As your cruise specialist we have all of the up-to-date information, so just get in contact and we can run through all of the relevant information before you book.

With Fred. Olsen, P&O, Princess already on sale with their UK cruises, Cunard on sale next week and many others looking to announce their summer options soon, we have included a selection of offers and deals currently available to book.

We cannot wait to send our customers back out on their cruises once again so please get in touch with us to book your UK Cruise this Summer today.

Be Inspired…

Why not try a Cruise?

A holiday for me is the opportunity to spend quality time with my loved ones, whilst switching off from the daily normality, soaking up the sun, fun and making memories that last.

I’m a big believer that having a holiday, whether on land or sea allows you to appreciate the things that matter and gives you that freedom of fun and relaxation all rolled into one.

I live for a holiday, and truly value every moment. I really enjoy being able to visit and experience many different cultures and destinations that help broaden my view, whilst giving my children the opportunity to see the World.

This is why I enjoy Cruise Holidays so much, as you cannot always get this benefit on a single centre land holiday. So, I thought I would share some important considerations to encourage you to try a Cruise as your next holiday adventure, or for those hearty Cruisers, the opportunity to be reminded of why you love Cruising in the first place.

1. Starting your Holiday in Style

When you choose a no-fly cruise the “getting there” is part of the holiday, which has to be better than queuing at the airport, seemingly endless flights and tedious transfers. In fact, the moment you step onboard your chosen ship, you can start enjoying the facilities right away. Imagine swapping your cramped plane seat and in-flight meal for a sun lounger by the pool, followed by a gourmet meal that you can eat with real cutlery. How could you resist?

2. Destinations

When it comes to where to go, the world is your oyster with a cruise. Why choose just one holiday destination when you can visit lots of places?

Cruises even have the edge over land-based multi-centre holidays.

That’s because you have the most comfortable mode of transport to whisk you between the destinations on your itinerary with lots of facilities to enjoy along the way.

3. Excursions

A big benefit of in-one-spot holidays is that you get more time in your chosen destination and, in theory, more opportunity to explore. However, in reality this takes time and organisation.

The temptation to stay by the pool with a cocktail in hand can be strong; before you know it, a week has gone by and you have not explored further than the beach across the road.

On a cruise, amazing excursions are usually organised for you by destination experts. They will identify the best things to see and do in port, so you can make the most of every minute. If that was not enough, some cruise lines include some or all excursions in the price of the holiday, which makes for excellent value for money.

4. Accommodation

If it’s size that matters on your holiday, it’s safe to assume that the average four-star hotel room is larger than the average four-star cabin. Although accommodation can vary in size, the norm for a hotel room is around 300 sq. ft., which would be considered huge for cruise ship accommodation (excluding suites, of course). Smaller cabins allow space on board for all the other facilities that you’re likely to enjoy. And it’s safe to say that most cruise liners know how to make good use of the space they can offer, coming up with creative space maximising solutions that hotels don’t consider.

5. Facilities Onboard

As with hotels, facilities vary greatly from ship to ship. However, because you’ll be confined to the vessel for part of your break, it’s likely that you’ll give more careful consideration to its facilities than you would a hotel, where you’re free to leave whenever you like.

The beauty of cruising is that there are ships to suit every traveller.

Ultra-luxury like Silversea, Seabourn, Regent and Crystal offer unparalleled levels of luxury (think Four Seasons or Ritz-Carlton); Celebrity Cruises, Azamara and next year’s much anticipated launch, Virgin Voyages, offer their version of modern luxury.

Whereas the like of P&O Cruises and Fred. Olsen are more for a traditional cruise. Or experience something completely different on a tall sailing ship adventure that dreams are made of with Star Clippers, to River sailing with Fred. Rivers. The choice is yours.

6. Entertainment

Hotel entertainment can be varied at best, but on cruise ships, especially the megaships, it’s a different story.

On Royal Caribbean vessels for example you can take your seat at Tony Award-winning shows like “Cats” and “Grease,” or watch synchronised swimmers and high-diving acrobats make a splash at the Aquatheater.

You can even catch an ice-skating spectacular and watch anything from a futuristic Roboshow to a virtual concert in the Two70 entertainment space.

Norwegian Cruise Line also boasts some fine off-Broadway shows including “Kinky Boots” and “We Will Rock You” as well as the award winning harmony act “Choir of Man”, who will make their debut on the line’s newest ship Norwegian Encore.

Smaller ships have scaled-down entertainment, as you’d expect with a smaller hotel, but that doesn’t mean the quality slips. Saga has signed up legendary pianist Jools Holland who has leant his name to its new ship’s Jazz Club.

7. Food

As with all-inclusive hotels, the quality of the food you will enjoy on a cruise holiday varies according to both ship and cruise line. In general, cruises are known for fantastic variety and quality.

As a rule, the number of eateries onboard depends on the size of the vessel you choose. A small ship might have one main dining room serving up four-course gourmet dinners, a less formal alfresco dining option and room service.

At the other end of the spectrum, the number of places to eat and drink on a megaship can easily run into double figures. Royal Caribbean’s Harmony of the Seas has 20 different eateries (12 of them are free to dine in), plus a room service option.

Some cruise lines run special food related cruises too. P&O Cruises for example has a roster of “Food Heroes” led by Marco Pierre White who creates the gala dinners across the fleet.

You can even do your own cooking on Britannia, which has the first Cookery Club at sea. Crystal Cruises’ ships, Crystal Symphony and Crystal Serenity, have restaurants overseen by Japanese masterchef Nobo Matushita; Seabourn works with Thomas Keller, MSC Cruises works with Michelinstarred chef Ramon Freixa and Silversea has launched a new food enrichment programme called Sea & Land Taste (S.A.L.T.). Of course, the benefit of on-land holidays is that you will not restricted to the restaurants in your hotel.

ship the higher the service level and on some of the ultra-luxury lines such as Seabourn, Silversea, Regent Seven Seas and Crystal, you’ll find intuitive service where crew are guessing what you want before you even ask.

On the larger vessels, you can’t expect that level of personalised service, but you’ll still be greeted with a “Good morning” and a smile, perhaps by the end of your cruise the barman may know your preferred cocktail of choice.

But whatever the size of vessel, you’ll be hard-pressed to find better service than at sea.

9. Child-Friendly Activities

All age groups, from tots to teens, are well catered for on cruise lines like Royal Caribbean, MSC Cruises, Disney Cruise Line, P&O Cruises’ larger ships and Carnival, with fantastic clubs, facilities and activities available. On MSC Bellissima, for example, you have got an AquaPark, a huge kids club with rooms for different age groups, a science lab and a theatre; as well as a sports court, 4D cinema and an arcade complete with bowling, as well as a comprehensive children’s programme.

10. Keeping Everyone Happy

One of the biggest plus points to a cruise holiday for me, is the ability to keep everyone happy on one holiday, there is so much choice to keep everyone smiling and making those lasting memories!

For me, land holidays, I tend to view the accommodation as the base, because I am free to visit any off-site attractions that I like. However, there’s much to be said for the convenience of the “everything under one roof” approach of cruising, because it’s a hassle-free way to get the holiday you want.

I hope the features I’ve shared gives you that desire to consider a Cruise for your next holiday. Be inspired and let our Expert Teams assist in making these considerations become reality for your next holiday experience.

Depending on your location, you will have your pick of eateries in the area, although this costs extra and you will have to be organised if you want to eat somewhere that’s in-demand.

8. Service Onboard

Crew/passenger ratios are roughly 1:2 and 1:3 on the larger ships, but can be as high as 1:1 when you get down to vessels of 100 passengers or fewer.

As a rule of thumb, the smaller the

EXPLORING

THE GALAPAGOS ISLANDS Introducing Celebrity Flora℠

A new ship designed for the Galapagos Islands

Celebrity Flora℠, the first ship designed and built specifically with the Galapagos in mind. This 100 Passenger, all suite mega Yacht features an innovative outward-facing stateroom concept, getting you closer and bring you an even more in-depth experience to the destination than ever before. With every state-ofthe-art technology, innovative materials and design — Celebrity Flora℠ is one of the most ecofriendly and environmentally conscious ships sailing the Galapagos today.

Celebrity Flora℠ marks an evolutionary turning point in the approach to ship design by allowing the destination and its environment to inspire and influence every decision made.

From the luxurious all-suites accommodations that incorporate sustainable, natural materials that complement the destination, to the Dynamic Positioning System that enables the ship to stay on station without the use of anchors to help protect the seas, Celebrity have created a ship that truly differentiates between visiting this incredible corner of the world and experiencing it.

The natural beauty of the islands, the diversity and uniqueness of the species that it harbours earned this archipelago the reputation of being a living laboratory of evolutionary processes still in progress. The region made room for the development of a large number of flora and fauna that do not exist anywhere else in the world, making the Galapagos a very unique place of global importance for the common

heritage of humanity. The public venues onboard are all designed to ensure you are always a glance away from this extraordinary scenery.

Located 600 miles off the coast of Ecuador, this archipelago of unspoiled, isolated islands will welcome you with its rugged charms and evolutionary wonders. Consisting of 19 islands and 42 islets that all rose from the sea as the product of volcanic eruptions, these islands are between 3 million and 4 million years old.

Within this small archipelago, each of the Galapagos islands is uniquely diverse. Some have shorelines draped in mangroves, others are rugged volcanic outcrops jutting defiantly from the sea. You won’t see the same distribution of wildlife on any two islands, and each has its own history, both geologic and otherwise.

Completely oceanic—meaning they’ve never been connected to the mainland - the Galapagos Islands are truly a world apart.

Settlers have carved out their lives on the lava rocks, pirates have profited, and scientists have explored. The history of the Galapagos is rich and diverse, with tales of basic survival and extraordinary discovery. For almost any modern adventurer, a journey through time to the Galapagos is a dream vacation.

There’s no place like the Galapagos and Celebrity Cruises’ Galapagos experience is the perfect bucketlist holiday for everyone.

The ultimate adventure, from the pioneers of world travel.

2023 marks 100 years since RMS Laconia completed Cunard’s first World Voyage and to celebrate the fleet will embark on two Centenary World Voyages in 2023, calling at ten ports originally featured on that historic circumnavigation of the globe by a passenger ship.

For her Centenary World Voyage, Queen Victoria will embark on a 101 night programme, visiting 26 ports in 20 countries, ten of which RMS Laconia also called at. She’ll treat guests to time ashore in Aruba, Jordan, Tonga and Mexico, a full transit of the Panama Canal, and overnight stays in New York, San Francisco, Sydney, Hong Kong, Dubai and Singapore, as part of an invigorating global itinerary.

Queen Mary 2 will also embark on a Centenary World Voyage in 2023, delighting guests with a 102 night itinerary featuring four of RMS Laconia’s original ports of call. She’ll chart a course that transits the Suez Canal, stopping overnight in Dubai, Singapore, Hong Kong, Sydney and Cape Town, as she sails roundtrip from Southampton on a landmark travel adventure that spans Asia, Australia and South Africa.

Each Centenary World Voyage will be complemented by a series of shorter travel adventures, with Queen Elizabeth undertaking full circumnavigations of Australia and Japan as part of her 2022 - 2023 season.

STAR CLIPPERS

I met the girls at 7.30 pm for our last dinner together. Having gorged myself on waffles during the afternoon snack I decided to be sensible at dinner, I ‘only’ ordered three courses! After dinner a few of our party decided to call it a night, I, however, decided to head up to the piano bar to watch the slide show and sea chart raffle.

Upon arrival in Athens, I met Emma, Sarah and David, my companions for the next few days. We exchanged introductions and then made our way out of the airport, where our transfer was waiting to take us to Piraeus.

When we arrived at the port I was hot (it was 28 degrees and I am more accustomed to the cool Newcastle climate) and tired but seeing the Royal Clipper for the first time made it all worthwhile! We boarded the ship and got ourselves all checked in. After a quick tour, we grabbed our life jackets and headed to our muster stations to partake in the compulsory safety drills.

After a wonderful welcome dinner, we made our way up to the sun deck for the first sail away. It’s hard to explain the feelings this evokes but anyone who has experienced it themselves will know how magical this first night truly is!

In the morning, Royal Clipper anchored off Amalfi, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, surrounded by dramatic cliffs and coastal scenery, famed for its Cathedral and its production of Limoncello.

After exploring the shops and taking the obligatory photo atop the cathedral steps, we stopped for a drink and discussed the possibility of dinner ashore. We decided to head back to the ship, freshen up and then make a final decision on where we would eat. However climbing aboard the tender back to the Royal

Clipper it soon became clear that we would not be dining ashore, to say conditions were rough would be an understatement! I must admit I found the whole experience rather exciting although I can understand why some of my fellow passengers didn’t. The best way to describe it – Imagine you are on a rollercoaster and someone has tampered with the controls, setting them to the most extreme (a la Mr Bean).

The following day we anchored off Sorrento, from 8.00 am we were up reasonably early for a quick breakfast before venturing ashore to explore the town. A popular tourist destination, Sorrento overlooks the Bay of Naples and from here Star Clippers offer excursions to Pompeii.

One member of our group was familiar with a pizzeria claiming to be the oldest in Sorrento and so we disembarked the tender and set off, hoping to enjoy a ‘slice’ of history (pun very much intended).

Thankfully it didn’t take us too long to find and we were soon sat, full of anticipation for what was to come. I decided to order the Sorrento pizza, well when in Rome (or should that be Sorrento). The pizza was delicious and if you are ever in Sorrento, I would highly recommend you visit Ristorante Pizzeria Da Gigino.

Back onboard the Royal Clipper for the final sail away. Once again the conditions had begun to worsen and it looked like we were in for another exciting evening!

The following morning I woke up a 7.00 am grabbed a quick shower and then headed down for breakfast, all ready for checkout at 08.15.

I was then transported by coach to Rome Fiumicino Airport, terminal 3 at around 09.30 and I exchanged goodbyes with everyone before venturing inside. I landed back in Newcastle at around 8.30 pm and I must admit after a long day travelling stepping off the plane into the cold North East air was wonderfully refreshing. I was tired, and at times I felt like I was still aboard a moving ship (a very strange sensation), but after the week I had just had that was a price I was more than willing to pay!
