Karen’s Malaga Moments
Malaga is a fabulous city if you want a bit of beach, a bit of culture and plenty of good food and drink. Here’s some highlights I loved!
The botanical gardens of Malaga are about 3 miles from the city centre on the 91 special bus service from the bus station (or about €12-15 each way in a taxi). The gardens are huge, offering plenty of shade from the sun and are a tranquil oasis from the bustling city centre. The onsite cafe allows you to make a day of it.

Stephanie’s Sweet Escape to Geneva
I was lucky to be invited to Geneva by the team at Switzerland Tourism. It was a fantastic trip and really changed my thoughts on Geneva as a city break. I always thought Geneva looked beautiful and we all know about Swiss chocolate… but I didn’t know the city would have such a relaxed vibe and such friendly people!
I arrived from Edinburgh and headed straight for the hotel to drop off bags and have lunch with the rest of the group. It couldn’t be easier getting into central Geneva, the train is 7mins and it’s 1 stop – we had the Geneva City pass so this was included in the card benefits. Once in central Geneva it was about a 10min walk to The MGallery Rotary (4*+). I really liked this hotel and the rooms were huge (they do seem to be larger all over Geneva in comparison to other cities), lovely sitting area in the reception and the breakfast was also great, lots of continental options and cooked options made to order too. The pancakes are especially good!
Lunch was out on the terrace at L’Artisan and we could have happily stayed there all afternoon! It was a pretty terrace in the shade with delicious food and tasty cocktails. Alas, we had a Wine and Heritage tour to get to so we dragged ourselves away to meet our guide.

Destination Copenhagen: with Steph and Diane
Day 1: Arrival & First Impressions
We arrived in Copenhagen and were pleasantly surprised by how easy it was to get into the city by train or metro. The station is under Terminal 3 and tickets are available from the machines. The journey from the airport took around 15 minutes. From our stop it was a 10-minute walk to the Hotel Kong Arthur where we were staying. The hotel is located over 5 buildings but has a real boutique feel to it. There are great indoor and outdoor seating areas, and we really enjoyed the “cosy hour” every night between 5-6 where you can have a free drink and chill out before heading out for dinner.
