— City Breaks —

Three days, one extraordinary city.

Long weekend in Paris, Tokyo, New York, Barcelona. Premium-cabin flights, the right hotel, the best tables, a private guide for the days you want to see properly.

— Why this style with us —

City Breaks — done thoughtfully.

City breaks are the most-popular holiday format in the UK — and the most poorly planned. Wrong hotel district. Forgotten museum bookings. Long queues at restaurants because no one called ahead. We do them differently. Premium cabins on short hauls. Hotels in the right neighbourhood (not just the cheapest). Private guides for the morning of day two, when you actually want to learn something. Tables reserved before you arrive.

— What sets us apart —

Three things we always get right.

01

Right hotel district matters

We pick neighbourhoods that suit your interests — Marais for fashion, Le Marais for galleries, 6th arrondissement for romance. Same city, different worlds.

02

Private guides for the cultural day

A 3-hour walk with a local art historian beats 8 hours of self-guided museum exhaustion. We arrange the right person for your interests.

03

Tables booked in advance

Including the hard-to-book ones. We book Le Bristol's L'Epicure, Septime, Frenchie before you fly.

Iconic global cities

Three days in Paris with my mother — her 70th birthday. Kishan booked us the right hotel (6th, not Champs-Élysées), got us the Louvre at opening hour with a private guide, and reserved Le Cinq for the birthday dinner. Every detail right. She still talks about it.
