A quieter version of Dubai? Then consider Oman. It has all the polish and high standards of hospitality associated with the Middle East, but offers a more low-key relaxed vibe. We particularly rate , which is located in the Musandam Peninsula, a two hour drive from Dubai. It is a true barefoot luxury retreat with strong eco credentials, which feels authentic, romantic and relaxing. We had a client recently stay here as part of their honeymoon, and they got to enjoy massages on the beach and we arranged the charter of a traditional Dhahab boat tracing the footsteps of ancient traders and legendary pirates, revealing the hidden beauty of the Musandam fjords.

We recently curated a 23-day journey through the magical lands of Egypt, Turkey and Morocco for a special family. One of the highlights of this crafted a tailor-made itinerary was visiting the newly opened at Giza, accompanied by a specialist historian. The museum is a marvel in itself, housing an incredible collection of artefacts. Our clients even had private access to explore the legendary Sphinx's paws, followed by lunch at restaurant overlooking the pyramids. To complete their journey, they also took a private charter boat on the Nile, visiting the Luxor Temple in Thebes. If you are a budding Egyptologist get in touch and we can curate the perfect trip for you.

If you’re looking ahead to an early spring (or early Easter school holidays) getaway then Morocco is an ideal choice. Whilst it is Ramadan between Friday 28th February until the end of March, visiting at this time offers a relaxed vibe during the day and a chance to feel connected to the spiritual and cultural energy of the country. We personally love the experience of “Iftar” known as ‘breaking of the fast’ after sunset. Many of the big hotels will offer indulgent menus to enjoy. For instance, the has an exquisite set menu whilst the and have lavish buffets at bargain prices.
Of course we can also arrange for traditional Iftar experiences with a slower, more authentic Iftar at a local home in any of the Imperial cities. Enjoy the traditional "Ftour" with dates, milk, juices, pastries, and the comforting Harira soup.

Half Term holidays are looming! If you want to escape the cold then the Maldives in February offers a blissful family escape for some last minute winter sun. Expect warm temperatures 25°C to 30°C (77°F to 86°F), perfect for swimming and snorkelling in the crystal-clear waters. Kids will love exploring vibrant coral reefs teeming with colourful fish. Many resorts offer fantastic kids' clubs with engaging activities like arts and crafts, games, and even marine biology lessons. Indulge in delicious seafood, relax on pristine beaches, and create unforgettable memories together in this tropical paradise. Our top picks for hotels are:

has some of the widest beaches in the Maldives, offering a PADI Mermaid class for little ones.

Fushi has a huge kids club, with a playground area of dreams - think pirates ship and zip wires over the pool!

is also on the list due to its Ocean Explorers club with its Undersea Academy! Kids can listen to a marine biologist talk or experience thrilling glass bottom boat rides.

families can keep active with jet surfing, kayaking, biking and the amazing Junior Marine Savers - where young adventurers become champions of marine life. From gently nursing turtles back to health to helping marine biologists grow vibrant coral gardens.

We love sharing feedback from our clients, so when we received this message for a very special trip we arranged - a honeymoon no less - we were thrilled. “We had THE MOST WONDERFUL time on our honeymoon and it is all thanks to you and your brilliant team of partners. Everything was so well organised and we were in such great hands throughout.
Thank you for making our honeymoon so memorable and special.”
The newlyweds stayed at in Oman, a destination we love, because it offers so much in terms of luxury hotels and relaxing activities. As you’d expect from a Six Senses hotel, it has an effortless style with fantastic food. Every room equates to a generous sized villa with a private pool.
And the India part of the itinerary was inspired by ’s personal experience of living in India and staying in some of her favourite boutique hotels such as the in Agra, where every room has a stunning view of the Taj Mahal.

The Wix Squared team recently stayed at Richard Branson's newly reopened hotel, which is just an hour south of Marrakech. Alex and her young family experienced the new 3-bedroom riads in this sprawling five-star property. There will also be a kids club opening later this year, but during our stay she loved the new tented restaurant, the panoramic vistas and the luxury of both a private pool and hot tub for all the family to enjoy. Up in the stunning High Atlas mountains we can arrange an array of activities whether hiking or e-biking in the mountains or perhaps cooking and dining with local Bedouin.

We're also excited that the Northern Atlantic coast of Morocco is opening up, with new hotels like the and the to choose from, plus the untouched beaches at Ocean Fairmontina, near Asilah and at near Tangier.

Iceland's northern fjords, particularly Yjafjörður, are a prime whale-watching destination. Renowned for their rich marine life, these waters offer a high chance of spotting majestic humpback and minke whales. With daily tours departing from multiple harbours, you can embark on an unforgettable adventure, witnessing these gentle giants in their natural habitat. We think the best time to visit Iceland for whale watching is during the summer months, from June to August. This is when the waters are calmest and the marine life is most active.

The solar maximum, the highest rate of solar activity during the sun's eleven-year solar cycle, is predicted to peak this winter. The solar maximum refers to the electrically charged particles the sun hurls towards Earth that cause the Northern Lights. The best time to see the Northern Lights is between December-January, when the nights are at their longest with clear skies. We can assign you a personal guide who will track the Northern Lights each evening and take you to the best place to see them - just when the night sky is the perfect backdrop for the green and sometimes red lights swirling high above. We highly recommend Deplar Farm, an old sheep farm that has been converted into a luxury retreat and spa, set in a remote valley encircled by 3000ft peaks. It truly is a wonderful setting to be at one with nature.

One of our favourite places to stay in Galle, Sri Lanka is which has exciting news - a new, long awaited pool with drinks service to enjoy the warm sunshine. This former spice merchant’s home has been lovingly restored to honour the Fort’s rich history and vibrant culture. It is a great base from which to enjoy one of our street food tasting tours or cookery courses that we can arrange.

Our clients have just returned from a 16 day tour of India. The trip covered a wealth of cultural experiences but perhaps two highlights were Amritsar - taking in the Golden Temple, which holds the Sikhs' holy scripture, the Sri Guru Granth Sahib. Here, they discovered the world’s largest community kitchen and got to try rolling chapatis and serving free food to the devotees. The second highlight was their visit to Nalanda, a Buddhist centre and the world's oldest university since the fifth century. The rural landscape here is dotted with Hindu and Buddhist temples and monasteries, offering a serene sense of calm and contemplation. We received this lovely message from them whilst travelling: “Nalanda and Rajgir have been a revelation to us from the amazing and breathtaking historical and religious sites to just witnessing day to day rural and city life. We have been very well looked after by your man on the ground Brajesh and a very experienced driver Ramesh who will be joining us tomorrow in Varanasi.”

As Bhutan opens up to tourists, with a reduction to its daily tourist tax and new direct flights from Dubai on , our clients recently experienced a phenomenal trip to the Land of the Thunder Dragon. Let us share their words on this once in a lifetime holiday:
“Thank you Alex very much indeed for the week we have just enjoyed in Bhutan. We cannot begin to tell you how fabulous Karma and Yeshi have been as guides and drivers. We have learnt so much about the country, the religion and culture of Bhutan. Everything has run so smoothly and they have managed to get us to all of the right places at exactly the right time, as we have been blessed by visiting temples, the University and Monasteries where special ceremonies were starting which we were able to witness and we felt very privileged and lucky because of this.”
The trip encompassed many of the ‘must-do’ experiences in the so-called ‘happiest nation’ in the world, such as the Black The Black-Necked Crane Festival - an annual event held in Bhutan each November to celebrate the arrival of the endangered Black-necked cranes in the Phobjikha Valley. Our clients also enjoyed an authentic Bhutanese hot stone bath that involves heating river stones which release minerals, creating a relaxing and therapeutic soak. And of course, no trip to Bhutan would be complete without visiting the Tiger's Nest - a sacred Buddhist site nestled dramatically on a cliffside in the Paro Valley. The iconic monastery clings to a cliff face at an elevation of about 3,000 meters (9,840 feet) above the valley floor and is truly breathtaking.

just listed Oman in its top 25 places to visit in 2025 and it said: “Go for: dramatic landscapes and new luxury hotels”. And, having recently returned from a trip to Oman, we have some incredible hotel offers in Oman to share with you. The villas at the recently opened
are very special and the recent opening of the Mandarin Oriental adds an air of sophistication to Muscat. Nikki Beach will be opening shortly and we also work with some private mobile camps in the desert, a new private camp at Bar al Hikman and a new luxury dhow to charter along the Muscat coastline and beyond - all of which we have recent firsthand experience of.

Food is often the highlight of any trip to Japan. Start with a visit to the famous fish market and tuna auction in Tokyo, learn the art of sushi making from a head chef, embrace the rituals of a traditional tea ceremony or partake in a Japanese whisky or sake tasting. Wherever you eat, be it in a local pub in the city, a 10 course Kaiseki meal in a ryokan, a bento box on the Shinkansen or a Michelin starred restaurant in Tokyo – you will struggle to criticise the delicious fresh seasonal ingredients, beautiful presentation and immaculate service. In fact we have recently been learning more about the very specialised art of ‘chanoyu' which is one of the world’s most intricate ways of enjoying a cup of tea. Before you even get to the actual tea ceremony, guests must jump through various etiquette hoops made up of bows and cleansing rituals. The host meticulously prepares the tea by whisking matcha powder with hot water, creating a smooth, foamy beverage. The tea is then offered among the guests, accompanied by a series of respectful bows and adherence to precise ceremonial protocols. We highly recommend this as an experience which really immerses you into the culture. Get in touch if we can plan a Japanese itinerary for you.

Just opened last month, the exclusive Nobu Riad is a launch we have closely had our eye on. As you’d expect from the luxury restaurant brand, the new 6-suite Riad blends Japanese minimalism with Moroccan artistry, offering privacy and comfort for up to 12 guests. We think it’s ideally suited for family and friends seeking an sleek Marrakech riad experience. Located near Jemaa El Fna Square and the historic medina, Nobu Riad is a tranquil retreat with spacious living areas, unique suites, a rooftop pool terrace, and a traditional hammam spa. Just a 5-minute car transfer from Nobu Hotel Marrakech. Get in touch if you would like to find out more.

It might not be the obvious first choice, but if you are keen to combine a ski trip with jaw-dropping landscapes then Iceland offers unique downhill and cross-country ski areas with terrain unlike anything you've seen before, plus incredible backcountry potential!

The ski resorts in Iceland are mostly found in the north of the country. There are a few slopes within really easy reach of Reykjavík too, though. If you are used to skiing the mega-resorts of the Alps or similar, then you will find Iceland’s resorts quite bijou. This also means that the slopes will be much quieter in general than you are likely accustomed to. This is great news for beginners, who will get to practice on uncrowded blue and green runs but also for the more extreme heli-skiers there is a world of powder to be discovered.

Snowmobiling, snowshoeing, and dog sledding enthusiasts will also find endless ways to enjoy Iceland's winter wonderland. We have a huge wealth of knowledge about this awe-inspiring country, with bespoke experiences which can be designed for you and your fellow travellers, so please get in touch.
