Exploratory News
Our email newsletter
We offer our newsletter, Exploratory News. We send 5 emails per year, in a largely text format. We hope that we are at the other end of the scale from bombarding your inbox!
5 emails not 4
Starting with our July 2021 email, we will send 5 emails a year, being January, March, May, July and October. It used to be quarterly, but a March email better fits our main booking season and a May email coincides with our UK season start.
When to sign up
If you sign up any time before March, before the Summer in which you might be traveling, then you'll receive our March and May emails and will be following our ongoing guidance about routes for that Summer. If you're able to sign up in time for our October email then you'll read our big one about new Summer trips.
Thank you for your interest - we hope you enjoy the emails.
