We’re now into week three of ATAS Touring & Adventure Month and it’s time to showcase family and youth travel.

I actually became a Contiki specialist last year so I can’t wait to share my brand knowledge with you and of course some of their AMAZING trips!

I purchased this voucher for my mum for Mother’s Day last year and we had the best day out! 🌸

We also stayed in a really affordable hotel, it was about a 15/20 minute walk away from Kew Gardens but it was so worth it for the value we received! There’s very few hotels around the gardens that offer parking or a swimming pool and this had BOTH! 🤩

Let me know if this sounds like you’re ideal Mother’s Day gift or birthday treat, I would love to share my recommendations and help you create your special weekend. ♥️
