After the festive frivolities fizzle out and the winter solstice passes its always nice to have something to look
forward to going into a new year. That is why we have put together this collection of tried and tested favourites
and new adventures departing in early 2025. Experience the wonder of the Up Helly Aa festival in Shetland,
as squads of ‘guizers’ form a rowdy procession that snakes it way through Lerwick. Go galivanting in search of
Galanthus in the Cotswolds or perhaps cruising the shimmering waves, exploring the glorious gardens of the
Canary Islands if this is more your style.
Further afield experience Japan, the ‘Land of the Rising Sun’, as the spring heralds the arrival of the candy flosscoloured cherry blossom, or head westwards to the sun-soaked shores of the Caribbean to explore tropical
gardens and colonial history.
