The new 15-day On Safari in South Africa with Mauritius Beach* tour includes five game drives to see the Big Five across Sebatana Private Reserve and Welgevonden Game Reserve.

On the ninth day, the tour heads to the island of Mauritius for some R&R with the chance to visit the world's only winery dedicated to lychee wine, enjoy a speedboat cruise or help out with local biologists at a wildlife foundation.

Newmarket Holidays adds Sardinia & Andalucia tours for 2023

Newmarket Holidays has added two new European trips to its collection of expert-led itineraries for summer 2023.

With strong short-haul sales for 2023, Newmarket Holidays wanted to add even more choice for holidaymakers.

The eight-day Classic Sardinia* tour, which will run on numerous dates from May to October, includes stops in Bonifacio before returning to Sardinia for guided tours, visits to museums and ample free time to explore.

Meanwhile, the eight-day Explore Andalucia by Little Boats* tour takes holidaymakers to the water with a mini cruise along the Guadalquivir River stopping at Cadiz, Seville and Marbella.

Head of Product for Europe, UK and Ireland at Newmarket Holidays, Michael Fleetwood, said: "Our European range has started the year well, and these two new tours will help further boost sales for agents.

"The short-haul market has been booking later post-pandemic, so there is a good opportunity for agents to secure reservations for the May departures for Classic Sardinia over the next few weeks."

Newmarket Holidays adds Mexico & Africa tours for 2023

Newmarket Holidays has responded to the positive demand for its long-haul trips by adding two new tours for 2023 to Mexico and the continent of Africa.

Firstly, the 13-day Mexico - Mayan Adventure and Caribbean Island blends culture, nature and beach while the 10-day On Safari in Victoria Falls includes travels through the Zambezi National Park and along the Zambezi and Chobe rivers.

Richard Forde, Head of Trade Sales at Newmarket Holidays, said: "Safaris and long-haul tours and beach adventures have been big sellers for our travel agent partners over the past year, so we are thrilled to be adding two outstanding new tours that the trade can get behind in 2023."

Newmarket Holidays launches worldwide tours up to 2024

Newmarket Holidays has put its full collection of breaks on sale up to and including 2024.

The collection coincides with the Newmarket Holidays' new Dream it. See it. Share it.* campaign and special offers, including 15% off the top 15 most popular tours or 10% off everything else when booked by 31 July 2022.

Newmarket Holidays takes pride in offering numerous regional departure points, giving travellers more flexibility.
