Walking holiday

Often overlooked as an option, walking holidays are a fantastic way to explore a new country. These can be self-organised, or you can remove the stress of organising and book onto various walking tours. Opting for a walking tour holiday means you are guided by someone local, perfect if you are looking to discover tourist attractions and hidden gems. Walking holidays also boast the benefit of getting to spend time with a group of like-minded people throughout your time away.

Skiing holiday

If you aren’t interested in a hot holiday, skiing could be the perfect option for your 2023 getaway. There is a common misconception that you need to have grown up going skiing to enjoy it as an adult, this is not the case at all. Skiing is a fantastic workout that allows you to experience phenomenal views of the mountains. For many, there are two main appealing factors of a skiing holiday; firstly, it is perfect for the entire family, with lessons for all ages and abilities available at most resorts. Secondly, the holiday doesn’t revolve entirely around skiing, with après being infamously fun.

Cycling holiday

A cycling holiday is another great option if you’re on the hunt for an active holiday. Cycling holidays are ideal as they can be as active as you choose. If you want to cycle all day long, you can do, or if you’d prefer to cycle once every couple of days you can also do that too. Using cycling as your mode of transport means you can take in the views and explore new areas all whilst traveling across the country. Do some research into the best countries for cycling holidays and enjoy!

Sailing holiday

If you’d rather sea than land, why not consider a sailing holiday? Sailing holidays are popular for a reason, offering a unique experience that you simply don’t get by staying in a hotel. Not only do you get to experience the relaxation of being on the water, but you also get to explore various different locations in the space of one holiday. Unlike other active holidays, a sailing one will require more planning and preparation due to the health and safety implications. Because of this, many people choose to go with established tour groups to embrace the experience rather than worrying about technicalities.
