Travel insurance - Tips & Advice - Holiday planning guide
Keeping an eye on your carbon footprint by holidaying at home will benefit both your wallet and the environment. But if your feet are itching for foreign soil, fear not – there are plenty of eco-friendly and responsible travel holidays that won’t cost the earth. Many companies now arrange trips that are respectful of the environment and contribute to local communities…

Stroll along unspoilt beaches, and then try a spot of yoga before visiting the Whale and Dolphin Conservation Society wildlife centre. From £399 (4-7 days) per adult and £299 per child, including accommodation, meals and activities, but excluding flights.
An overland 19-day adventure by truck through Uganda and Kenya that takes in stunning scenery, game parks and bird life, as well as Elsamere, the house of Joy ‘Born Free’ Adamson. You’ll encounter black rhino, hippos, lions and giraffes!
