If you haven’t made your summer holiday plans yet it’s not too late.  Here are our top 8 destinations for Summer 2017.

1. Italy

However you define the sweet life, Italy satiates the appetite. Feed your passion for authentic cuisine, which varies by region, and feast your eyes on Roman ruins and art by masters like Michelangelo and Leonardo Da Vinci in museums around the country. Abercrombie and Kent Connections Boutique Journeys have some great options for your to explore Italy in style. 

2. France

If you can tear yourself away from the table, you can tour the wineries of Bordeaux by bicycle, float over the fields of Champagne in a hot-air balloon, cruise the Riviera in a yacht, or view the luxurious chateaux of the Loire Valley on a riverboat.

3. Spain

Incredibly diverse Spain offers something for everyone. Wineries in the La Rioja region, beaches in the south and culture exploration in cosmopolitan cities such as Seville, Toledo and Barcelona.

4. Germany

This summer, hike the Bavarian Alps, or take a cable car to the top of the Zugspitze, Germany’s tallest mountain. Cruise the Rhine, flanked by vineyards, or kick back in a Biergarten with a refreshing wheat beer.
5. Ireland
Drive or walk the Ring of Kerry for memorable views of mountains and sea, and experience the stony isolation of the Burren, a vast limestone plateau. Brace yourself atop the windy 700-foot Cliffs of Moher, and walk among 60-million-year-old stone columns on Giant’s Causeway or stay in a castle. 
6. Canada
Canada is the place to be this year with Canada 150 being celebrated across the country with hundreds of special events.  Here are some of our favourite tours to experience Canada.
7.  Netherlands
Admire extensive collections of Van Gogh and Rembrandt at their respective museums in Amsterdam, visit Anne Frank’s Secret Annex, and cycle across one of the capital city’s 1200 bridges. For something different try a bike and barge tour. 
8. Denmark
Wander among half-timbered houses and quaint cobblestone streets in the medieval towns of Ribe and Odense, the birthplace of author Hans Christian Andersen. Holland America has cruises beginning and ending in Copenhagen, a great add on to a land tour.
