We know you’ve been on the edge of your seats these last few weeks, putting your holiday plans on hold just to see what your horoscope might suggest! Well, we won’t keep you waiting any longer…

As Valentine’s Day rolls around again, the shops fill up with hearts, the florists sell their last roses, and a fleet of singletons have to sit through the celebrations.

It’s not rare for an immigrant community to band together in foreign countries and make a home-away-from-home.

January has long been the most popular time for booking a holiday, what else is there to cheer you up after the indulgences of Christmas are over and the annual dread that winter MIGHT actually last forever begins to set in?

We’ve all heard the stories, be they from childhood or from an obsession with Disney. Boy meets girl. One of them is actually royalty. After some magical shenanigans, perhaps a misunderstanding or two, boy and girl live happily ever after.

We live in a time of carbon dating, of ancient languages being rediscovered regularly, of genealogy, and miracles of science that can nearly figure out the exact age of the earth itself.

It’s the new year and boy is there some travelling to be done between now and 2020. With it being nearly the end of the second decade of the new millennium, the future of travel is here and it’s time to get smart with travel.

If there was ever a time to eat, drink and be merry, then it’s the holiday season for sure.

Ah, tea drinking. That Great British tradition. So passionate are we about tea that the American’s knew that we’d get very annoyed with them if they were to throw it in Boston Harbour way back when.

While it’s well known that here at Great Rail Journeys we are passionate about rail travel, it just so happens that we believe aviation is something to be celebrated, too!

The idea of travelling aboard a night train holds an almost mysterious allure, conjuring images of moustachioed Hercule Poirot aboard the Orient Express or stepping into the high heels of Jack Lemon and Tony Curtis as they bunk down with Marilyn Monroe in Some Like It Hot.

We’ve all had this experience, haven’t we? The encroaching, heavy and unbearable wait before something we’ve been looking forward to.
