From Rome to the Norwegian Arctic, we have you covered.
Have you been keen to embark on that bucket-list trip for a while? Well, now would be the perfect time to get the ball rolling. In association with TripADeal, Explore has just launched its biggest ever reader giveaway, with five exciting prizes. Read up on each of the trips, then enter your details (see instructions, right) to go in the running to win one of them.
1. Nordic escape

The majestic fjords, mountains and glaciers in Scandinavia are enough to take your breath away, but the biggest drawcard of TripADeal's 18-day Norwegian Arctic Expedition package is a 12-night cruise with Hurtigruten along Norway's vast coastline in search of the mesmerising northern lights. Valued from $12,999 per couple, the adventure will kick off on March 9, 2024, with a couple of nights in Oslo, where the winning twosome can check out historic sites such as Radhuset town hall and Royal Palace, and finish up in the utterly charming and colourful city of Bergen.
2. Passage to Southeast Asia

Whether you want to experience the buzz of Vietnamese metropolises like Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City or simply be engulfed in the timeless tranquillity of Cambodian destinations such as Siem Reap, TripADeal's 17-day Vietnam & Cambodia Discovery package, priced from $10,988 and departing on May 8, 2024, will have you covered.
3. Mediterranean medley

Nothing screams Europe quite like a holiday on the Italian coast of Amalfi, where skinny roads wind their way through scenic villages and dramatic cliffs with eye-popping views of the Mediterranean. But the 19-day Puglia, Amalfi & The Med tour by TripADeal turns up the fun factor by throwing in a few more classic haunts - from European heavyweights such as Rome and Athens to Greek islands like Rhodes and Cos. And the best thing? Priced from $11,998 per couple, the tour kicks off on September 5, 2024, when both mercury and crowds have dropped, meaning you could have some of these beaches all to yourself.
4. European blockbusters

As far as ticking off a bucket list is concerned, few tours would beat TripADeal's 18-day 2 for 1 Europe tour, which visits eight countries - Italy, Spain, France, Austria, Malta, Slovakia and Slovenia - as well as includes a seven-night cruise of the Mediterranean with MSC. Departing on November 17, 2024, this one's valued from $10,899 per couple.
5. African adventure

TripADeal's 10-day Ultimate South African Safari will take you to some of the country's most incredible locations, from Welgevonden Game Reserve for rare wildlife encounters to a rocky outcrop where you can enjoy a champagne brunch with views of the savanna. Valued from $10,198 per couple, this safari kicks off on July 31, 2024.
