If, like me, you’ve been enjoying Simon Reeve’s new Wilderness series, you may be feeling inspired to visit some of the more remote parts of our planet. I’m not suggesting for a moment that we trek for hours through insect infested swamps, or spend an evening eating bull testicles. But visiting some of these areas is easier than you may think. … Read More

We had a gorgeous trip to Paris. The hotel was absolutely perfect for us - chic and comfortable and great service. It was in a brilliant location which was quiet and yet so central. Just a short walk away from wonderful cafes, shops and restaurants. All of the advice from Shearwater Travel, from ideas of things to do, to hotel choices, location and travel was personalised and extremely useful. Nicola responded to queries (including urgent ones) promptly and at all times of the day and evening which was so much appreciated. She also achieved pricing we could not have done had we organised this independently. We will definitely be using Shearwater again for future trips and highly recommend their services.

We cannot recommend Shearwater Travel highly enough! Normally quite self-sufficient when it comes to holidays we sought Nicola's help with a family holiday to Greece as we were unfamiliar with the Greek Islands. Nicola listened carefully to what we were looking for and came up with an interesting list of suggestions including a couple of thought provoking left-field options. She then worked with us to come up with a tempting shortlist and we finally ended up booking an island destination and villa combination which absolutely nailed the brief. Everything was painless and very professionally handled. We look forward to booking with Shearwater again!

Thank you for organising such an amazing trip around Mexico. K and I really loved it and the itinerary was brilliantly balanced. You were right in challenging my desire just to flop: I got so much out of the cultural and nature stuff too. A perfect tonic. Thank you

I just wanted to let you know how much we loved our time in Mallorca, Covid aside! The hotels were both absolutely gorgeous and we loved staying in both. Pollensa was amazing, and we definitely hope to return sometime - there was so much we didn’t get to see and do. The walking was fabulous and all your tips about the island were so helpful. Thank you also for the guidebook which was put to great use and is now very well thumbed!
Highlights for us (apart from Pollensa and all the walking we did from there) were Valldemossa, Deia and all the sightseeing around Palma.

We have just returned from a fantastic trip to Oman and wanted to say thank you for all your help organising such an amazing holiday.
From the outset you were always available to answer any questions and offer well-informed advice and top-tips. It really helped us get the most from our time in such an interesting country, there really is so much to do - snorkelling with turtles, wild swimming in deserted wadis, dune bashing and hiking in the mountains and so much more! The hotels you recommended were excellent with wonderful service and beautiful views. We thought Oman was truly amazing and the Omani people were extremely welcoming and proud of their country. Once again thank you and where can you send us next?

Nicola organised a half term trip for us to Portugal. It all went like clockwork and we had a lovely break in a really nice hotel. She gave us some good advice re testing and made sure we had all the instructions we needed beforehand. Highly recommended!
