We rarely ever get the warm weather over here in the UK, so why not grab a cheap holiday over the next few weeks to somewhere that does!
As I write this article, it is currently 15°C here in the south of England, but it is currently 25°C in Tenerife, 27°C in Ibiza and an absolutely delicious 35°C in Egypt!
So why are you still here?
Tenerife: From just £250 per person for a week
This volcanic island is a perfect destination for those who want something a bit different - but still want all the mod cons. Thousands of people each year travel to these islands for their cheap holidays to catch the almost tropical weather.
Take yourself over to the undeveloped side of the island for a moon-like landscape, with bubbling geysers and extensive lava flows you can walk over!
Back in town, why not try the local cuisine - with the island speciality of ‘kid’ on the menu at many of the bustling street-side cafes. Or grab yourself a drink and sit on the delightful secluded beaches and watch the sun set!
Ibiza: From as little as £140 per person for a week
Just over 2 hours away and you could be on your holidays in the party capital of the Med! Or stay at home in the rain and watch cars driving by your window!
Get yourself down to the West End party district if you are out for some fun in the sun - that’s where most of the action is - but if you can’t keep up or would rather avoid the crowds then there are still spots for you to enjoy in peace!
Large areas of the island are actually part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site and are therefore not allowed to be over-developed - just explored by you! Many of these remote and pristine sites are used in film sets and photos shoots - so you may catch someone famous wandering the streets!
Egypt: From as little a £250 per person for a week
Although this destination id just over 5 hours away - you are on your way to Africa! Not to mention the totally different culture here - and of course - the 1000’s of years of history to explore!
You notice the difference immediately when you arrive here compared to the normal island destinations you might be used to - it really is another world!
The amazing warm waters and coral formations - with amazing diving to match in the Red Sea. The endless rocky deserts and the camel rides to get to isolated temples - and not a tree in sight! And maybe the chance to spend the night in the middle of nowhere with you Bedouin guides with views of the milky way - uninterrupted by man-made lights and noise. It’s amazing.
Plus the food here is something new as well. The fish dishes, breads, fruits and sweets will make you wish you had booked a 2-week stay instead! I absolutely loved my stay here, and will definitely be going back!
So that’s enough talking about taking some great holidays for less than a weeks work - lets get booking them and get on that plane!
See you there?
