The Reichstag, Brandenburg Gate, Checkpoint Charlie, the former Berlin Wall, Alexanderplatz and Museum Island are more than enough to enthuse and excite your group on a five day tour of Berlin.

Of course, we can take your group on tour to Paris. But, unless they stay in the outskirts of the city and so run the gauntlet of the Paris rush hour each day, they’ll also pay top prices.

The First World War was a turning point in world history. It claimed the lives of over 16 million people across the globe and had an impact on the lives of everyone. 2014 marks the 100th anniversary of the beginning of conflict, supposedly The War to End All Wars, and is a chance to pay our respects to the fallen. What better way of doing that than by taking your group on its very own First World War 100th anniversary tour?

Nestled at the centre of the Mediterranean with Sicily to the north, Greece to the east and North African and Arabic influences from the south, as Damian and Louise found out on their inspection visit earlier this year, Malta is a melting pot of cultures. With no less than nine UNESCO World Heritage sites, Malta is a perfect destination for groups looking to explore Renaissance cathedrals, Baroque palaces and Neolithic temples.
