If you’re something of a history buff and you love to discover stories about the places you visit on holiday, why not consider one of our archaeological adventures? From Malta and Greece, to Italy and Albania, we have a broad selection of tours on offer that will bring you face-to-face with iconic ruins and legendary tales.

Want to tick the sprawling site of Pompeii off your bucket list? We can help. Fancy walking among some of ancient Greece’s mythical locations or spending time at the mighty Palace of Knossos, where Theseus defeated the Minotaur? Let us take you there.

Looking for a different kind of holiday? Join us in Albania. Visit the Roman amphitheatre in Durres, the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Butrint and Apollonia, the second-oldest Greek colony in Albania, dating back 2,700 years.

A destination that needs no introduction, Crete is home to some magnificent archaeological sites. Here, Greek myth becomes reality with visits to the Palace of Knossos and Phaistos. You’ll also take a boat over to the haunting island of Spinalonga.

There are many reasons to visit Malta, but its rich archaeological heritage is up there as one of the best. From the ancient and mysterious Hal Saflieni Hypogeum to the 5000-year-old temples of Hagar Qim and Mnajdra, there is much to see.

No need to travel too far to explore fascinating ancient sites! Join us in Scotland and visit the multi-period settlement of Jarlshof, the Heart of Neolithic Orkney and the best-preserved Iron Age tower in existence – Mousa Broch.

Another Greek archaeological adventure, this time visiting the Lion Gate at Mycenae, the impressively well-preserved and unspoilt site of Messene, and the dead city of Mistras. Elsewhere, admire Venetian and Neo-Classical architecture in Nafplion.

How about a twin-centre holiday, where you will visit the Royal Mounds at Gamla Uppsala, the impressive but ill-fated warship Vasa, the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek art museum, and the Baroque Skokloster Castle.

This holiday offers the perfect fusion of nature and history. Visit Ephesus, the largest ancient city to have been excavated, and Assos, with its impressive theatre. An array of gardens and parks also feature on this holiday.
