JAN31Just back from…Costa Rica
-
i-escape’s Bookings Consultant, Mike Brandon, gives us the low-down on his latest trip…
Well, I’m back from Costa Rica and looking out at the grey skys and drizzly rain that’s falling outside i-escape HQ, I couldn’t feel any further away. Rich in exotic wildlife and boasting dramatic and diverse scenery including verdant rainforests, glorious coastlines and rumbling volcanoes, it’s a paradise for the lovers of the great outdoors.

JAN26Easy Escapes for Easter
-
We’re looking ahead again this month, to make the most of those bank holidays that fall around Easter and the Royal Wedding (free days off!) Our selection of Holiday Bundles suggests short-haul trips you could take with only 2 days’ leave, and 13-night long-haulers that cover all the bank holidays, and only need 6 days off work (or 5 if you’re happy to go to work straight from the airport!).

JAN19Flights of Fancy? Not anymore…
-
Here at i-escape we’ve always had a penchant for finding undiscovered hideaways in some of the world’s most unspoilt locations. But just because we like getting off the beaten track doesn’t mean we enjoy spending hours waiting for connections on complicated multi-leg journeys. So we’re happy to see that some of our favourite destinations are set to be become a lot more accessible in 2011 thanks to a raft of new flights from the UK. Continue reading

If you are travelling by air then you’re going to spend some of your holiday in at least two of these. They mark the beginning and end of your journey and really can make all the difference to your overall holiday experience. Here’s a rundown of the i-escape team’s top picks…

JAN13Welcome to the new i-escape blog!
-
Here at i-escape, we rather like January. Why? Because it’s when we start planning all our holidays for the year to come, of course! So, what better way to celebrate the start of a New Year (and more holidays!) than with our very own blog to share all our latest finds with you too…
There’s so much that goes on at i-escape that never gets written about…until now! It’s the things we tell our friends, the latest travel trends, our favourite places, our views on where to go, when to go, what to take and of course, all the juice from our own travels too.
To kick off, here’s a word from our founders, Laila Ram and Nikki Tinto, who have travelled the world seeking out some of the most unique, unusual and downright stunning places to stay for the i-escape collection…it’s a hard life! Continue reading
