From horse riding in London's Hyde Park to street art in Rome and a special ceramics masterclass in Sicily, your clients have a wealth of exciting new experiences to choose from. Take advantage of our latest experiences and adventures when booking an escape this spring.
Horse Riding in London’s Hyde Park
Used by Henry VIII as his own private hunting grounds, there are few more memorable ways to experience Hyde Park than on horseback. Your clients will saddle up and set off across the park’s 250 acres, taking a trot around the picturesque Serpentine lake, as well as the Diana Memorial Fountain and historic Speaker’s Corner. Visitors will also ride down the historic Rotten Row, originally built in the 17th century for King William III.
Ceramics workshop in Sicily
A craft that has ancient roots in Sicily, your clients can discover the fascinating tradition of ceramic making in Sciacca, close by to Verdura Resort. A fun, hands-on workshop that’s perfect for individual travellers as well as families and groups, guests will get their hands dirty welding and decorating their own creations, learning special artisan techniques along the way.
Street Art Tour in Rome
Most visitors to Rome are already familiar with the city’s Renaissance masterpieces, but how many know where to find incredible street art in the Eternal City? Your clients can uncover Rome’s vibrant street art scene on this expert-led tour, which leads visitors through the city’s creative, eye-catching Ostiense neighbourhood before arriving at Citta dell’altra Economia, a fascinating local community of working artists.

Paris is always a good idea. Except, perhaps, when it’s hosting the Olympic Summer Games, and the usual tourist throng looks set to multiply almost prohibitively. Of course, the Games are exciting, but if wading through crowds feels like a marathon effort, try a cultural relay around one of these stunning European cities instead.
The name Bernardo Buontalenti might not mean much to those outside of Florence, but it should. A prestigious Florentine architect and artist favoured by the Medici, he is also widely credited with inventing gelato. This frozen delight is now as synonymous with Italy as pizza and is deeply intertwined with Florence’s heritage. Take a tour of the city’s most celebrated gelaterias, curated by the expert concierge team at Hotel Savoy.
As the gentle glow of each ornate chandelier begins to dim, a hush descends upon the audience before an all-consuming world of tragedy and triumph unfolds. Both exhilarating and deeply moving, a night at the opera has the distinct power to evoke emotion, while offering a unique insight into a perhaps unfamiliar city.
Journey through Europe’s symphony of unmissable opera houses, each steeped in history and grandeur.
