Explore THE World

-

Come ocean, river, road or rail, there are so many ways to experience the world – so make sure you get the expert tour guide

THE world may be our oyster, but finding a gem of a holiday can sometimes feel like it’s down to sheer luck. So many destinatio­ns, so many ways to experience them, so little time to organise it.

But that’s where Shearings comes in. As the UK’s largest escorted tour operator, it is expert at planning the perfect holiday for you. With a staggering 1,000 itinerarie­s in more than 200 locations worldwide, it caters for all tastes and age groups to make flying somewhere far flung fabulously fuss free.

Whether you want to gasp at glaciers in Antarctica or soak up the sheer magnificen­ce of the African Serengeti, Shearings has you covered.

Life should be all about adventures – and Shearings can match its epic journeys to your curious spirit. When it comes to unforgetta­ble experience­s, you can’t beat jetting to somewhere like Borneo, where your personal guide will introduce you to the incomparab­le natural beauty of the lush island.

Or, how about living the high life in Abu Dhabi, where you can go from pool to desert to five-star restaurant – all on the same day you watch the Grand Prix?

If getting close to nature is more your bag, meander through Mother Nature's amazing masterpiec­es in Canada, ending your trip with a splash on a whale-watching tour or at the awe-inspiring Niagara Falls.

CRUISE CONTROL

SHEARINGS has also earned its sea legs when it comes to organising ocean cruises. From a tour of the Norwegian fjords to a once-in-a-lifetime Arctic expedition, sailing the seven seas has never been so easy. From the moment you walk on board the beautiful MS Magellan and MV Columbus ships, you’ll feel at home with your own adventure. In between conquering new worlds, you can relax at the deck bar by the swimming pool or be entertaine­d by the A-list entertainm­ent.

For a more personal approach to cruising, why not enjoy a smaller ship on one of the dozens of river cruises on offer, getting you closer than ever to charming cities and picturesqu­e towns along the waterways of the Danube and the Seine?

While adventures on the high seas and in lands on the other side of the world are wonderful, sometimes a break close to home is the best way to get back to your roots.

Shearings is famed for its coach tours – across UK, Ireland and Europe – but did you also know it can plan an idyllic weekend for you through its self-drive breaks? From romantic mini-breaks in the Cotswolds to a New Year’s getaway with friends in the Highlands, everything will be organised for you – giving you all the more time to make special memories that will last a lifetime. So whatever way you want to holiday, Shearings really has got every corner of the world covered.
