Winter often disagrees with us Aussies. While it can be an enjoyable season for a short while, we soon find ourselves daydreaming of hotter days, lazing on the beach between ocean dips, or soaking up the sun as we explore vibrant cities. If the winter blues have already set in, let us take your mind off it with a winter escape.
When the chill sets in, where do your thoughts begin to wander? If you’re picturing ancient cities bordered by sparkling waters, topped off with a gelato after a day of exploring, Europe might be calling. Perhaps you imagine the hustle and bustle of night markets in Asia, surrounded by endless platters of street food. Or maybe it’s the turquoise waters of the Maldives, where you can wake up in an overwater bungalow and be snorkelling just ten steps from your bed.
We’re bringing your summer daydreams to life. From guided tours to river and ocean voyages, and the most indulgent summer stays, each week we’re sharing a selection of winter warmer escapes around the world, packed with exclusive savings. And some helpful guides to inspire your travels, plus a summer playlist to get you in the mood.
