Luxury tailor-made holidays from Original Travel
At Original Travel we believe that life is in the detail
Northern Lights
Swedish Lapland is one of the best places in the world to see the Northern Lights or Aurora Borealis, the extraordinary natural light show that occurs in the depths of winter.
Amalfi Coast, Capri & Rome
Italy has more UNESCO World Heritage sites than any other country on the planet, the food is mouth wateringly good, and the landscapes are varied...
Porto & the Douro Valley
The Brits have long had a penchant for port, but the vineyards where the fortified wine is created and the eponymous city of Porto are, in themselves, a delight.
Peru
The scenery is striking in its diversity, from plunging canyons to soaring mountains, lush rainforests to arid Altiplano.
Family South Africa
Malaria free, easy to get to and home to some of Africa's best family-friendly hotels. It doesn't get much better for a family safari.
Morocco
Morocco is an immediate and exciting immersion in another world, where Arab and Berber blood, history and culture are inextricably bound.
Norway
Who needs Canada when you've got big country and polar bears on your European doorstep?
Hotels We Love
Pop quiz – what’s the first thing that springs to mind when you hear the word holiday?
Ultimate Tanzania
Tanzania is a country so full of diverse and fantastical scenery that it can be almost impossible to select just one or two destinations to visit....
Where to go
Explore the world to find the destination of your choice.
The Best of Mexico City
¡Bienvenido a Mexico City! Formerly known as DF (distrito federal) for the past two centuries, Mexico's capital changed its official name last year and is now known as Ciudad de Mexico (CDMX). Once centre of the Aztec Empire, latter day CDMX (catchier than one-time Tenochtitlan) sits gritty…
My Trip to Tanzania’s Ngorongoro Area: Hiking and The Highlands
When you think of Tanzania and its Ngorongoro Crater, which I've just returned from, I am sure that 92% (precise, expert figure here) of those who haven't been before would not immediately associate either with the Scottish Highlands. But believe it or not, the similarities are uncanny.…
Cambodia like a Local
The phrase 'like a local' is thrown around a lot in travel these days, and while it's a great concept, we tend to find it often comes without much backing from an actual local expert. Without blowing our own trumpet too much, this is where we'd like to think we differ.
Navigating Norway: Oslo to Bergen
Travelling around Norway from Oslo to Bergen is no mean feat; a landmass so speckled with mountains and fjords that everywhere you turn it's impossible not to be awed by the staggering and dramatic landscapes that surround you. And there are several modes of exploration available, from boats…
2018’s Most Under-the-Radar Destinations
You've scrolled through all of the 'Hot Lists' and you know all of the 'It' destinations to visit, but what if you're wanting something a little more, well, different? Luckily we've spent years travelling under the radar to discover some truly fascinating destinations and can hereby reveal…
The Green Heart of Italy: Umbria
When heading on my two-week adventure to Italy, exploring cities including Florence, Rome, Venice and Bologna, I did not think that the rural area of Umbria would be the region that became my highlight. As the sea and the beach are usually my top priorities when going on a holiday, I was…
Summer Lovin': Leaving it to the Last Minute?
Whoever said failure to prepare is preparation for failure clearly never experienced the thrill of being spontaneous or, for that matter, the chaos of trying to juggle (delete as appropriate) family/work/home/pets/social life. While it's all very commendable to book things months and years…
Sing for your Supper: Our Top Australian Foodie Experiences
It's no secret that Australia is one of the best wine producers in the world, and those in the know will also be aware that the variety and quality of food on offer here stands it in the running with the likes of Italy as one of our favourite all-round gastronomic destinations.
Why I Fell in Love with Sri Lanka
As a real foodie I was extremely excited at the opportunity of travelling to Sri Lanka on my recent research trip to sample first hand some of their culinary delights such as hoppers and curries, and I was not disappointed. Having spent the last fortnight in Sri Lanka I have realised that it…
Meet the Locals - our Specialist Guides in Australia
When it comes to friendly locals, Australian's are well known for being some of the friendliest out there. People do actually say g'day and you won't be hard pushed to find a gang of surfers barbequing at the beach. Plus, with a population of 24 million people, there are plenty of mates to make.
My Top Five Thailand Experiences: Phuket and Bangkok
Having previously been to Thailand twice before, I presumed that I had already experienced most of what the country has to offer. However, on my recent trip to the self-claimed 'nation of smiles', my presumptions were proved highly incorrect (as most often they are).
Are you a Master? Our Top Five Learning Holidays
Sometimes, travel isn't only about taking home memories of a lifetime, but also taking home a new and valuable skill that also happens to have a local connection to your holiday destination. Whether that's learning to cook traditional dishes with local chefs, or learning how to play a local…
