We took a journey to the unknown today on the 94.1FM Gold Coast Radio Travel Show as we peeled back the surface of London, UK and revealed some of the facts that even some Londoners are unaware of when exploring this historic city. Ben Ben is not a clock, the Underground is more 'Overground', the City is actually a Forest, and it rains much more on the Gold Coast that it does in London - who'd have known!

And for this weeks Travel Deal we had a very festive experience, and what better place for a Christmas experience than in London, England. The sites, the shopping, the atmosphere is all festively incredible, and you’ll feel the holiday spirit when you experience the Christmas season in London.

You’ll wander London’s colourful Christmas markets, beautifully decorated department stores, and bustling streets. See the giant Norwegian Fir Christmas Tree in Trafalgar Square, along with St. Paul’s Cathedral, and the festive lights adorning Buckingham Palace, and explore the majesty of Westminster Abbey. You will also visit the historic university town of Oxford all decked out in holiday splendour, and travel to magnificent Blenheim Palace. Enjoy a ride on the famous London Underground and a Clipper boat sailing to Greenwich and enjoy English afternoon tea in charming Covent Garden. This is a wonderfully festive way of discovering the colourful history and regal pageantry only found in London.

This wonderful 6 day tour begins in London on either the 1st or the 13th December this year, or book early for December 2025 where there are multiple departure dates. Quality accommodation, 8 meals, and all the sightseeing is included and fully guided, all from just $2,999 per person twin share, or $3,799 for the solo traveller.

Why not make this part of a more comprehensive European Christmas adventure by adding on a European River Cruise or time in another wonderfully festive European city such as Paris, Salzburg or Cologne. Contact Travel Masters & The Travel Studio on 1800 672 988 and GRAB YOUR SPACE in London at Christmas time!

French Guiana 🇬🇫 - who has been there?

That's where our 94.1FM Gold Coast Radio Travel Show took us today, as we discovered stories of penal colonies, space stations, rainforests and creole food, all wrapped up in a small region of South America....or is it Europe?

We currently have 16 cruises on the cruise search page on the Travel Masters website that feature a day in Devil’s Island, so make sure you browse through if you want to visit this interesting part of South America.

However, as we know there is a connection with Guiana that takes people to the stars, and we have a travel deal this week that certainly has a stellar connection for sure. However, you’ll have to wait until August 2026 for this experience, however it will be well worth it as your journey starts in London, England with a 3 night hotel stay in the UK Capital, including daily breakfast and a 48 hour hop on hop off bus tour, before you are transferred down to Southampton to walk up the gangway of new Queen Anne of Cunard Lines.

This is a short 7 night cruise packed with interesting ports of call, including wonderful Santander and historic Gijon in Northern Spain and a call into Pauillac in France, but the special day is in La Coruna, Spain. This is the port for a tour into historic Santiago de Compostella, the Tower of Hercules and the pretty old town. However, as you make your way back to Queen Anne its all on top deck for an experience that is out of the world as you don the sunglasses for an amazing full Solar ecplise at Sea, and once in a lifetime experience. The cruise returns to Southampton where you are transferred to the airport.

Make this part of a larger trip to Europe with extensions available in the UK or anywhere else in Europe, but you will have to book very quickly if you want to be on board this very special cruise. Departing the 6th August 2026, and we have the 3 nights in London with breakfast and bus tour, all transfers and the 7 nights onboard Queen Anne in a Balcony Stateroom, 10 nights in total, all from just $3,685 per person.

Contact Travel Masters & The Travel Studio on 1800 672 988 and witness a Solar Eclipse at sea while enjoying incredible ports in Spain and France. GRAB THAT CABIN today!

Welcome to the Queen Anne!

It's not very often that Cunard launches a new ship, so when it does it is a grand event. And it wouldn't be a Cunard launch without our very own Dave being one of the very first people up the gangway!

The Queen Anne sails from Southampton on her maiden voyage today, but Dave was invited to spend time on the new ship before the maiden voyage guests arrived, giving him a first hand 'sneak peak' at the public areas, restaurants and luxury accommodation.

Todays launch of the Queen Anne makes her the 249th vessel to proudly fly the Cunard flag. This milestone will also signify the first instance since 1999 that Cunard will have four ships navigating the seas simultaneously.

Thanks for the photos Dave - I'm sure they will be seen with envious eyes!

Don't forget Travel Masters & The Travel Studio is the place to secure your voyage on Queen Anne, or any of the four Cunard ships in service, and remember to ask us about our specially dedicated hosted cruises!!!
