Tour Plus Collection
More ways to explore
Save 15% on our Tour Plus Collection - Enjoy beach escapes, cruises, and city stays
With each tour, so much more to explore
Introducing our new Tour Plus Collection, designed to enhance your holiday and enrich your escorted experience. From river and ocean cruises to pre- and post-tour stays, Tour Plus adds extra layers of discovery while maintaining the care and quality of an expertly planned itinerary. Quite simply, it's a tour plus more.
Why choose Tour Plus?
With over 40 options, finding your perfect combination is effortless - whether that means relaxing on sun-soaked beaches, enjoying a cruise, or adding extra sightseeing to your itinerary.
Your tour, your way
Make the very most of your precious time away, adding pre or post extensions to your Classic or Premier tour, for when you just want to escape home for that little bit longer. Or, why not get a taster of a cruise or enjoy a musical event by combining them with sightseeing on one of our Tour Plus Cruise or Tour Plus Event holidays?
Independent exploration or indulgent relaxation
On many of our optional extensions, you’ll have free, unaccompanied time to explore at your own pace. Return to that museum you fancied visiting, linger a little longer in the bar, or simply find a sunbed, switch off and relax. Each journey will feel completely and uniquely yours. If you do happen to need us, our operations team are on call 24/7 and we have local representatives on hand too.
Enticing destinations
Our Tour Plus collection opens up a world of new and enticing destinations, many of which can’t be found on any of our other tours. From glitzy Marbella and the idyllic Aegean Islands to the historic Panama Canal, there’s an even wider world of wish-list experiences just waiting to be explored.
Tour Plus Beach Stays
Optional beach extensions offer days at the end of your tour to relax and enjoy some independent free time at the coast. Take some time to unwind after your touring holiday before returning home at the end of a wonderful stay.
Rest and relaxation are front of mind on these breaks and generally don’t have any included excursions or an accompanying tour manager, so you’ll be free to unwind at leisure.
From Sri Lanka’s palm-lined beaches and the turquoise waters of Mombasa to Hò Tram's coastal hideaways and Bali’s tranquil coves, these extensions invite you to slow down and savour the rhythm of coastal life.
