Where to Travel This Summer with Steppes

Italy and Malta

Our long-standing partners, more often found in colder climes, are offering some excellent savings in the Mediterranean this summer, with one passenger travelling free. 

Aboard a small expedition ship with just 150 guests, travel from Amalfi’s clifftop villages to Sicily’s historic shores, ending in Malta’s elegant capital, Valletta. Expect a thoughtful balance of ancient ruins, rugged coastlines and relaxed days at sea, with expert guiding and excellent local food and wine throughout. 

Alternative departures – also with this 50% saving – include Morocco to Spain, and Venice to Dubrovnik.

Greece

Perched above the coast of north-eastern Crete with clear views of Spinalonga Island, Cayo Exclusive Resort & Spa is a relaxed, contemporary base.

Light, spacious rooms and suites, many with private pools, make this an easy choice for couples wanting privacy and families needing room to spread out. Long summer days lend themselves to time by the pool, coastal walks and evenings outdoors, with the resort’s calm setting giving the stay a steady, comfortable rhythm.
With a small selection of restaurants focused on fresh, local, Greek dishes and an exclusive Steppes upgrade to half board, this is a timely opportunity to settle in, dine well and make the most of the views.

Croatia

It’s rare to find a private charter of this calibre still available this late in the season. 

Fresh from a full refit, this 10-berth yacht presents an unexpected opportunity for a Croatian summer escape. Sail between Split and Dubrovnik with your own captain and crew, settling into an easy rhythm of island walks, market visits and unhurried days on the water. With two master cabins, she suits one or two families travelling together with ease. 

With limited availability, special introductory rates and added touches such as a complimentary wine or olive tasting, this is a timely moment to secure a sought-after yacht before the remaining summer weeks fill.

Svalbard

We have found you a rare opportunity to experience Svalbard at its most remarkable. With a limited number of last minute places available at a particularly compelling offer, please get in touch quickly before this one fills up. 

Focusing on the largest island in the archipelago, the journey weaves through drifting pack ice in search of walrus and bearded seals, before entering dramatic fjords framed by jagged peaks. Keep watch for polar bears on the ice, while guillemots nest high on the cliffs. Time ashore allows for tundra walks and the chance to uncover traces of early explorers.

Romania

Legend says that when the Pied Piper lured the children from Hameln in Germany, they vanished underground and emerged in Transylvania. But history tells a different story: 

Discover Romania, a land of history and legend that’s fascinated travellers for centuries. You’ll get the opportunity to explore the largest protected area of the region, with extremely varied biodiversity as well as one of Europe’s last surviving medieval landscapes.
