Why this privately built town is not the Egypt you are picturing, a closer look at The Chedi El Gouna, and the reason you really do not need an all inclusive here. There comes a point every winter, usually somewhere around the middle of January, when the sky has been the same colour for three weeks and you would give almost anything for an afternoon that requires sunglasses. The problem with that feeling is that most of the genuinely hot places are a very long way away. The C

25 days booked. 55 days off. If you have 25 days of annual leave to spend next year, where you place them matters a great deal more than how many of them you have. There are eight bank holidays in 2027 and several of them fall in a genuinely generous way, with two landing on a Friday, four on a Monday and Christmas handing you a Monday and a Tuesday together. Book your leave around them rather than through them and those 25 days will keep you away from your desk for 55. That

After Dua Lipa and Callum Turner's spectacular three-day Sicilian celebration, the world is dreaming of the island all over again. We've found three extraordinary CV Villas properties where you can write your own love story, and The Romance Edit team to help you plan every detail.

Every summer, millions of travellers head to the same destinations. Santorini, Mallorca, Dubrovnik, Amsterdam, and Oslo all have plenty to offer, but they also come with one thing many travellers are trying to avoid: crowds. One of the questions we get asked most at this time of year is: "Where can we go that isn't too busy?" The good news is that Europe is full of incredible destinations that offer the same beautiful scenery, fantastic food, rich culture, and wonderful hotel

There are some destinations that sit quietly on your travel wish list for years, and then there are destinations that completely take over your imagination. South America is one of those places. A continent of dramatic contrasts, South America is home to ancient civilisations, vibrant cities, towering mountains, vast glaciers, wildlife-rich rainforests, and some of the most spectacular landscapes on Earth. It is the kind of destination that makes you feel as though you are ex

There are few cities in the world that do romance quite like Paris. From morning walks along the Seine River with coffee in hand, to late dinners in candlelit bistros tucked down side streets, Paris has a way of making even the simplest moments feel special. Whether you are planning a honeymoon, celebrating an anniversary, popping the question, or simply escaping for a few nights together, where you stay can completely shape the experience. At Case Travel, we believe a romant

How to create a trip that actually works for everyone Planning a family holiday can often feel overwhelming, especially when you are trying to balance different ages, interests and expectations, while still hoping to find time to properly relax yourself. The reality is that a great family holiday is not about doing everything, but about doing the right things well, and with a little thought and preparation, it becomes far easier to create something that genuinely works for ev

A curated guide from Chicago to California Route 66 has always been about more than the drive itself. It is a journey defined just as much by where you stop as how far you travel, and nowhere is that more evident than in the food and drink along the way. From historic diners that have barely changed in decades to quietly exceptional restaurants in unexpected places, the route offers a culinary experience that mirrors the diversity of the landscapes you pass through. What make

There are very few journeys in the world that carry the same weight, nostalgia, and quiet sense of romance as Route 66. Stretching from Chicago to the California coast, this iconic highway has spent the last century shaping the way people experience America, weaving together cities, small towns, deserts, and coastlines into one continuous story of movement, freedom, and discovery. To drive Route 66 today is not simply to follow a road, but to step into something far more laye

(with a bonus trip to Sweden) We’ve just got back from an incredible 3-night break in Copenhagen, and it honestly exceeded expectations. It’s one of those cities that manages to feel relaxed and laid-back while still offering loads to see and do, perfect for a short getaway. We flew with British Airways from London Heathrow Airport on Wednesday 11th March, and the journey couldn’t have been easier. The flight was only around 90 minutes to 2 hours, so it barely feels like you’

Rediscovering the beauty of a UK getaway Long evenings spent in beautiful gardens with a chilled glass of rosé in hand, lazy afternoons stretched out on golden sands listening to the cry of gulls overhead, and leisurely weekends cycling through quaint villages before ending the day in a cosy country pub. When the weather behaves itself, there are few places quite as charming as a Great British summer. Even when it does not, the United Kingdom has a way of turning grey skies i

After an unforgettable few days exploring the wilderness of Botswana, our journey continued with one final light aircraft flight that would take us towards one of the most famous natural wonders in the world. We boarded our small aircraft for the final leg of the trip, flying for around one hour and ten minutes before landing in Kasane. The airport itself is small and relaxed, still technically within Botswana, but perfectly positioned close to both the Zimbabwean and Zambian

When most people begin planning a safari to Botswana, they immediately look at the dry season months between June and September. These are considered peak safari months, when water sources shrink and animals gather predictably around rivers and waterholes. It is undoubtedly a spectacular time to visit. However, after recently returning from Botswana during the green season, I can confidently say that travelling during this quieter time of year offers a completely different an

On Monday 23rd February, my partner Adam and I took the eleven-hour flight from London Heathrow to Johannesburg. When we landed at 7am in Joburg, luckily our luggage had been checked all the way through to our next flight, so we simply went through transit immigration before heading to international departures, where we enjoyed a flat white and some snacks while waiting for our connecting flight to Maun in Botswana. At 12pm it was time to board our flight to Maun, a very quic

From Kenya to Rwanda and Everything In Between An African safari sits firmly on many travel wish lists. Yet, once you begin researching, the choices can feel overwhelming. Each country offers something distinct. Some are known for high-density wildlife viewing, while others excel in conservation-led intimacy, dramatic landscapes, or rare primate encounters. At Case Travel, we design safari journeys around the experiences our clients truly desire. Whether that means witnessing

The Ultimate Luxury Safari Packing Guide Packing for safari requires a balance of practicality, restraint and quiet sophistication. Unlike other long-haul holidays, you are dressing not only for climate but for movement: early morning game drives in open vehicles, warm afternoons under expansive skies, candlelit dinners back at camp, and often light aircraft transfers with strict luggage limitations. Most bush flights restrict luggage to approximately 15–20 kilograms per pers

Because the journey should feel considered, not endured. For most UK travellers, reaching the Maldives involves an overnight flight with a connection in the Middle East or Asia. Many people rush it. Airport lounge. Quick coffee. Back on a plane. But the smartest travellers? They turn that connection into part of the holiday. A well-chosen stopover can: Reduce jet lag Break up a long journey Add culture or adventure before total relaxation Transform a one-dimensional trip into

From romantic hideaways to the most beautiful overwater villas To create a definitive guide to the best hotels in the Maldives is no small task. This is not simply a beach destination. The Maldives is the benchmark for private-island luxury worldwide. Here, overwater villas are standard. Privacy is non-negotiable. Service is intuitive rather than performative. Natural beauty does not need embellishment. Across 26 atolls and more than 130 private island resorts, the calibre is

How to Choose the Right Island for Your Perfect Resort Experience Choosing a resort in the Maldives isn’t about finding a beautiful island, they all are. It’s about choosing the right atoll, the right island, and the right style of resort for how you want to travel. With over 1,000 islands spread across 26 atolls, this is where most travellers feel overwhelmed, and where expert guidance makes all the difference. Consider this your guide to navigating the Maldives properly. F

How to spend the perfect weekend in Britain’s most charming corner Few places do escapism quite like the Cotswolds. Loved by Hollywood A-listers and habitual Down-From-Londoners alike, it’s a region whose beauty goes far beyond its postcard reputation. Yes, there are honey-hued cottages, babbling brooks and winding lanes that look made for chocolate boxes, but this is not a destination stuck in time. Beneath the golden stone lies a quietly evolving scene of design-led hotels,
