Holidays with a difference  

In this section we cover holidays which are that little bit different.

Some of them will also appeal particularly if you are single or your partner doesn't share the same interest in travel.

Also see our full overview if you want information on more traditional holidays such as Cruises, City Breaks and Long Stay holidays.
