If you’ve been dreaming of white-sand beaches, turquoise waters, and the kind of luxury that makes you instantly relax, then this Thai escape is for you. Flying with Etihad Airways, combine pure indulgence with a touch of adventure, this 10-night getaway to Krabi offers the best of both worlds – serene days in a five-star pool villa and unforgettable moments exploring one of Thailand’s most beautiful national parks.
Begins your journey with flights from Dublin via Abu Dhabi with Etihad Airways, bringing you to the tropical haven of Krabi. On arrival, your private transfer will whisk you to the Banyan Tree Krabi, where you’ll spend nine luxurious nights in a Partial Ocean Pool Suite with breakfast included. This five-star resort, tucked between emerald jungle and the turquoise Andaman Sea, is the perfect base for both relaxation and adventure.
Krabi is Thailand at its most enchanting – dramatic limestone cliffs rising straight out of the sea, secluded lagoons accessible only by boat, and islands scattered like jewels across the horizon. Unlike its busier neighbour Phuket, Krabi offers a more laid-back atmosphere while still delivering the very best of Thai hospitality, cuisine, and scenery.
During your stay, you’ll enjoy a full-day guided excursion to Cheow Lan Lake in Khao Sok National Park. Known as Thailand’s “Guilin” for its towering limestone karsts, this magical lake is surrounded by rainforest alive with exotic wildlife. Spend the day boating through emerald waters, swimming, and soaking up the tranquillity of one of Thailand’s most unspoilt landscapes.
While your pool villa will be hard to leave, Krabi has so much to discover:
Island Hopping – take a speedboat to the famous Phi Phi Islands, Hong Islands, or James Bond Island for snorkelling, swimming, and pristine beaches.
Railay Beach – only accessible by boat, Railay offers dramatic cliffs, hidden caves, and one of the most beautiful stretches of sand in Thailand.
Sunset Longtail Cruise – enjoy a private longtail boat trip at golden hour, watching the sun dip into the Andaman while you relax on deck.
Thai Cooking Class – learn the secrets of Thai cuisine with local chefs before dining on your own creations.
Wellness & Spa – indulge in holistic treatments at Banyan Tree’s award-winning spa, inspired by ancient Asian traditions.

This two week journey combines a guided safari through Kenya’s most well known wildlife regions with time on the coast in Zanzibar. It suits travellers who want structured game viewing with experienced guides, followed by a comfortable beach stay where everything is included. Flights, transfers and touring are all in place, so the focus is on the experience rather than planning the route.
Step straight from your villa into clear lagoon water, slide into the sea before breakfast and have every meal, activity and detail covered from the moment you arrive. This ten night Maldives stay at Siyam World is designed for families who want more than just a beach, with space, variety and a level of inclusion that means you are not thinking about what to do next.
Some moments define a place more than any landmark. Festivals, seasonal events and cultural celebrations bring a different energy, giving you a chance to see destinations at their most alive. Here are a few worth knowing about, whether you build a trip around them or simply keep them in mind.
