Published: 14/07/2020   /   Updated: 21/12/2022

Operator also pledges a ‘trip of a lifetime’ to a key worker, to be nominated by the public

Tailor-made travel operator, Audley, has launched 11 new European destinations enabling clients to enjoy the quality and service of a bespoke Audley trip closer to home this summer.

Clients can now book itineraries exploring France, Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Greece, Croatia, Scotland and Ireland. These destinations extend the suite of European trips launched by Audley in recent years in Italy, Spain, Portugal, Turkey and Iceland.

Flexible cancellation promise

To give clients peace of mind in uncertain times, Audley is also offering a new and industry leading flexibility promise for seven of its short-haul destinations. Any trip booked by the end of September to new destinations Croatia, Greece or Scotland as well as Italy, Portugal, Spain or Turkey for travel in 2020 can be cancelled up to seven days before departure, for any reason, and fully refunded with no questions asked allowing travellers to have confidence that their money is protected should their personal situation change.

Highlights of the new destinations

The launch of these 11 destinations, now, is an acceleration of plans set in place over the last few years. As a result, clients can be confident that Audley’s destination specialists have spent significant time in the countries, staying in the hotels and experiencing the tours first hand — the same attention to detail given to all of Audley’s trips and experiences around the world.

Highlights include cycling through Croatian vineyards in Lumbarda, one of Europe’s most overlooked wine regions, sampling grk (a dry white wine known for its peppery finish); perfume making in Paris with a local expert and a private guided wildlife photography session on Scotland’s Rothiemurchus Estate.

Vicky Hawker, Head of Product for Audley, said: “We have always known that our UK clients want to travel in Europe with the same one-off experiences, as well as a curated selection of exceptional hotels, that they have enjoyed in our long-haul destinations. It has always been our intention to launch these destinations here, and the unexpected events of this year have inspired us to bring these launches forward so that we can offer a wider range of Audley experiences closer to home and in a way that clients feel comfortable. That may be taking trains instead of planes, hiking in the mountains instead of walking through big cities, or planning a self-drive trip. Our specialists are able to design the ideal trip for clients in 2020 and beyond, with the added peace of mind from our seven day flexible cancellation promise for travel to seven destinations this year.”

Prices for European tailor-made trips start from £1,850 per person (for a six day trip to Scotland*). More information is available at www.audleytravel.com/europe or by calling 01993 683320.

A trip of a lifetime for a key worker

Audley is showing its appreciation for the UK’s key workers by offering a trip of a lifetime to an individual nominated by members of the public. From 6th July until the end of August, critical workers (as per the UK government definition) can be nominated by any UK resident, together with the details of how they have gone above and beyond their usual duties or made significant sacrifices to their work or home life in response to Covid-19. The selected key worker will receive a trip** for two people to Cambodia with a two night stopover in South Korea. The itinerary will be a typical Audley trip with unique experiences, cultural immersion and the knowledge that everything included will truly support local communities. More information as well as the terms and conditions are available at www.audleytravel.com/key-worker-competition
