DREAM HOLIDAYS
If you want to try a different holiday this year, you'll find some great ideas in our holiday guide.
1
With its sea and islands, Croatia is the place for a holiday. On a course you'll learn how to sail a yacht while you travel along the coast from island to island. You'll live on the yacht with your teacher and the students, and you'll sail about thirty kilometres a day. You'll stop at a town for dinner and some sightseeing each night.
2
Do you want to change your life? Then a holiday at the Chiva-Som resort in Thailand will help. You'll stay at the Chiva-Som Hotel by the sea. Here you can relax and forget all your problems. You can try yoga and tai chi or have a massage. The hotel restaurant serves very healthy food. You can also do a course in Thai cooking.
3
If you like dancing, then you'll love a trip to Cuba with Club Dance Holidays. In the mornings you'll learn how to dance the tango and other dances. At night you'll go dancing at Havana's clubs. You'll stay at the Hotel Nacionál. If you stay for an extra week, you'll have the chance to explore Cuba's rainforests and beaches.
4
Scuba-diving will take you to a new world. You'll stay at the Rosetta Hotel in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt. Before you go into the sea, you'll learn how to scuba-dive in the hotel's swimming pool. Then you'll move into the water of the Red Sea with its coral reefs and fish. When you aren't in the water, there will be flights to some of Egypt's monuments.
