Tailor-made tour operator Audley Travel has unveiled four new land and sea itineraries with destinations ranging from Iceland and Canada to Singapore and the Seychelles as well as Australia and New Zealand.  Combining a carefully curated programme of breathtaking land-based experiences and ocean cruises, the routes include places that a client wouldn't typically encounter when travelling by only land or sea.

Following the launch of Audley's ocean cruise offering in 2024, alongside its existing river and expedition cruises, clients can curate their own 'hybrid trip' to maximise their travel time and destination exploration, whilst travelling in comfort, luxury and style. Audley's specialists apply their personalised approach to itinerary planning to extend to all elements of the trip, from helping clients choose the right ship, stateroom or suite and onboard experiences, to expertly crafting bespoke landside activities and excursions.  

The new itineraries offer a range of unforgettable, tailor-made experiences: exploring Icelandic cuisine, visiting Singapore's iconic Cloud Forest and giant indoor waterfall, unwinding on the pristine shores at Seychelles' Beau Vallon beach, experiencing an exclusive backstage tour of the Sydney Opera House and indulging in a delicious meal aboard Christchurch's vintage 1920s Tramway Restaurant.
