Discover the Far East A unique blend of cultural experiences Far East Comprising the exotic destinations of Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia, Cambodia, Laos, Singapore, Japan, China and Hong Kong, the Far East offers adventure aplenty and packages that suit the gap-year backpacker and high-end luxury traveller alike. The ideal escape will combine the region’s most exciting cities, most wondrous wildlife and best cultural attractions with some well-earned relaxing on tropical beaches. Escorted tours are the best way to cram everything in! REQUEST A CALLBACK Share this article with friends & family: Facebook WhatsApp Copy link Having avoided colonisation Thailand has absorbed Western influences whilst maintaining its own rich heritage and cultural integrity. Bangkok’s temples mingle with bustling bars, traditional Thai markets and comprehensive shopping malls. Phuket offers a party atmosphere as well as a more relaxing stays at the luxurious resorts of Bang Tao Bay. Singapore provides some of the finest shopping and culinary delights. Originally founded as a British trading colony it has become one of the world’s most affluent nations. Hong Kong is a global centre of culture and is dynamic, ravishing and awe inspiring. The wetlands of Vietnam’s Mekong Delta offer a mystery like no other, a contrast to its rugged mountains and lush forests. Cambodia arouses the hidden discoverer in us all and is home to some of the most famous relics of ancient civilisation, while Laos offers a more relaxed environment with a slower pace of life. A voyage to Burma (Myanmar) will scintillate the senses of all explorers in a country yet unspoilt by Western influences - gilded pagodas, natural beauty, engaging locals and endless trekking opportunities. Japan, otherwise known as ‘Land of the Rising Sun’, is a mix of past, present and future combining ancient traditions, heart-breaking history and new world technology. A country of contrasts, China, is one of the four oldest civilisations in the world. With tradition and innovation constantly working side by side, China gives you the full living experience. Whether you want to discover the rice fields and monastery villages or capture the true spirit of the modern world in the mega-cities, China never disappoints. MALAYSIA HOLIDAYS A day trip to the Sepilok Orang Utan Centre, set amidst a vast tropical rain forest, offers the opportunity to see cheeky orang-utans in their natural habitat. Striking a balance between the authentic safari experience and the traditions of Thai culture can only mean one thing: a stay at Elephant Hills, Khao Sok. The bustling nightlife of Chinatown, Singapore is an experience to behold. You can learn how to regulate your Yin and Yang before taking a ride on a rickshaw through the alleys. VIETNAM AND CAMBODIA HOLIDAYS Vietnam’s capital Hanoi, the ‘Paris of the Orient’, provides a charming flavour of Asia’s heritage. It has retained much of its original French colonial architecture and the tree-lined boulevards provide a stark contrast to the cramped alleyways of the old quarter. The private island resort of Song Saa in Cambodia presents visitors with an exclusive resort with virgin rain forests and tropical reefs. Angkor Wat is the best preserved monument in Cambodia, the aerial view from a hot air balloon is nothing short of spectacular! EXCLUSIVE ESCAPES If visiting Thailand, we can suggest an exquisite colonial- style hotel set in delightful tropical gardens. If visiting Malaysia, we can recommend a resort that is nothing short of a sanctuary of luxury and well being.

City breaks What's your favourite city in the world? City breaks There's no better way to get under the skin of a country than to visit its cities. You'll get a real feel for the culture, whether from visiting museums, art galleries and festivals, or just wandering through the streets and sampling the café life. And you're guaranteed to pack twice as much experience in than if you were just sitting on a beach (as nice as that is). Also, cities are as weather proof as you can get - even if the rain does come down, there is always something to do! MAKE AN APPOINTMENT Share this article with friends & family: Facebook WhatsApp Copy link There really is a city for everyone and the best thing about living in the UK is that there are literally hundreds of fantastic city break destinations within a couple of hours' flight time. Paris, Rome, Barcelona, Amsterdam, Seville, Venice and Madrid are just some of our favourites, with a diverse range of modernity, history, culture, great food and drink, and great things to do. There are so many destinations to choose from and sometimes the best holidays come from going off the beaten track and experiencing lesser known places. Of course, there's no reason why you can't go a bit further afield and make a city the focus of a long-haul trip. From New York and Boston to Las Vegas and San Fransisco, the USA mixes modern convenience and easy travel with vibrant, energetic destinations that are perfect for a longer city break. Or why not incorporate a city stay into a wider holiday itinerary? Combine a tour of Australia's East Coast with an immersive stay in stunning Sydney; take a relaxing few days in incomparable Cape Town after your South Africa safari.

African Adventures A continent full of surprises! Africa Africa is a country that is full of surprises. Home to pyramids, jungles and beaches, and bursting with wildlife, it is a place that has to be seen to be believed. From the deserts of Arab North Africa, through incredible Kenya and Botswana safari holidays, to the vibrance of South Africa, this big, bold and vibrant continent is packed with experiences and offers adventure to suit every taste. Browse this page for destination highlights and contact us to find out more! REQUEST A CALLBACK Share this article with friends & family: Facebook WhatsApp Copy link Africa’s landscapes and wildlife are undoubtedly its main attraction. Mount Kilimanjaro is a must see and there are a variety of challenging yet achievable routes to the summit. A hot air balloon ride over the Serengeti is also not to be missed - the breath-taking views will provide you with a whole new perspective. Tanzania offers a range of options varying from island hoping across the turquoise waters to a descent into the Ngorongoro Crater, not to mention spotting the tree climbing lions around Lake Manyara. A glimpse of nesting turtles and hammerhead sharks are also a possibility. Impressive accommodation, warm and welcoming locals, remarkable scenery and magnificent game viewing are all located within the ancient land of Zimbabwe. Mozambique was once a Portuguese colony with has retained much of its colonial charm which manifests through the food, architecture and culture. Whilst diving in the country’s waters you will catch sight of spectacular marine life and coral reefs. Impressive accommodation, warm and welcoming locals, remarkable scenery and magnificent game viewing are all located within the ancient land of Zimbabwe. The unrivalled Gonarezhou National Park, combined with the Kruger and Limpopo parks, is a sensational area of wilderness allowing free movement for animals within the three reserves. A vast land of mesmerising landscapes, abundant wildlife and an astonishing array of natural wonders, Namibia promises an adventure like no other. KENYA AND BOTSWANA SAFARI HOLIDAYS Kenya is a renowned destination for safaris; Botswana is one of the last untouched areas of Africa, boasting unique landscapes like the seasonally flooded Okavango Delta (a wetland paradise within a desert) and world- class game viewing. We know an intimate camp in Kenya where each tent is tucked away in its own private ‘boma’ with plunge pool, outdoor shower and river views. In Botswana we recommend an eco-sensitive, solar- powered hilltop retreat in the game-rich Savuti area of Chobe National Park. STUNNING MADAGASCAR Madagascar has no parallel: an extraordinary storehouse of natural and cultural riches, it makes experienced travellers question what it means to say a country is unique. As a result of its split from the main land Africa some 165 million years ago, the wildlife on Madagascar is a staggering 80% endemic. Consequently, it is a strong claimant for offering the most extraordinary wildlife holidays on the planet. We highly recommend a nature resort on the tropical island of Sainte Marie which features a rum distillery and a range of activities. SOUTH AFRICA AND CAPE TOWN South Africa is vast, varied and vibrant. Cape Town offers the cosmopolitan ambiance you would expect from such an exciting city and, if you’re into luxury train holidays, the Blue Train offers a 27-hour journey from Pretoria to Cape Town - sensational scenery, fully air-conditioned travel, with a butler available to accommodate your every need. Don’t, however, miss out on the opportunity to sleep in a treehouse under the stars in this stunning country. Enjoy a picnic before retiring to bed in your own private elevated bush bedroom.

South & Central America New World adventure awaits. South & Central America South and Central America is a huge area, with a big range of countries, landscapes and attractions between Mexico in the north and the southern-most points of Chile. Mix in Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador & Galapagos, Peru, and even Antarctica, and you have something for every travel taste with a New World touch of adventure guaranteed. At the start of winter, you could be skiing in the south, hiking in the centre or snorkelling in the north - just take your pick! REQUEST A CALLBACK Share this article with friends & family: Facebook WhatsApp Copy link Suffice to say, the diversity of geography, wildlife, history and climate is wide enough to cover all bases. South America is ideal for lovers of the extreme, a land where you can stand on the longest mountain range on earth, take a chilly dip in the world’s highest lake or camp out in the world’s driest desert. If you’re a lover of more temperate areas, with dreamy stretches of sublime coastline then Central America will east satisfy your needs. From the Pantanal in Brazil to the Galapagos Islands of Ecuador, Patagonia’s Valdes Peninsula and Torres del Paine National Park, the wildlife watching is second-to- none and Mexico’s Baja California is often dubbed the world’s best whale-watching destination. Both regions also boast developed tourism with luxury resorts, spa retreats and escorted tours aplenty for those who want relaxation to feature in their well-earned holiday! The impressive Andes Mountain range provides hikers and climbers with everything they could ever want and there is world-class snorkelling and diving to be found, especially in the Galapagos. On the culture side of things there are many lively, cosmopolitan cities to experience, each with their own vibrant personality and passion, and a wealth of ancient historical sites including the unmissable Machu Picchu. The diversity of this global region can be so bewildering that deciding where to go can be a difficulty task. That is of course where we come in - you tell us what you want from your holiday and we can tailor our recommendations to fit. Whatever you are looking for, we highly recommend South or Central America for your next holiday - you won’t be disappointed! MEXICO HOLIDAYS Mexico’s coastal resorts are the perfect mix of pristine white-sand beaches and away-from-it-all luxury hotels. The east coast meets the calm, warm waters of the Caribbean Sea; the west coast greets the Pacific Ocean with dramatic cliffs and bays. Along with ancient ruins, jungle, wildlife and marine life. Must do: see the ancient Mayan ruins at Chichen Itza, the most important city of the Mayan Culture in the Yucatan peninsula and a spectacular place to visit in a day trip from Cancun. ARGENTINA HOLIDAYS The world’s southern-most city, the rugged landscapes of Patagonia, the renowned destinations of Mendoza and Iguazú Falls. Cosmopolitan Buenos Aires is a sassy city of contrasts - explore the broad boulevards, experience life on a ranch and have lessons in the Tango. Must do: 100 years after Carlos Gradel rose to fame for his sultry Tango moves, Esquina Carlos Gardel has opened its doors as a tango club and restaurant - an unforgettable night out in Buenos Aires! BRAZIL HOLIDAYS From the pulsating excitement of Rio de Janeiro to the tranquility of Costa Do Sauipe, Brazil has a dream holiday for you. Lively, vibrant Rio is the country’s heartbeat and its citizens have a genuine passion for life. The great Amazon River winds through dense rainforest while the breath- taking Iguaçu Falls thunder into the river at the border of Brazil, Argentina and Paraguay. Nobody ever arrives on time for social gatherings in Brazil - if you do you’ll have quite a wait! PERU HOLIDAYS There is so much to discover in spectacular Peru - the world’s highest lake and largest rainforest, hiking the Colca Canyon and Sacred Valley, indulgent spas and gorgeous beaches. And, of course, the breath-taking Machu Picchu and the ‘must do’ Inca Trail. There is so much to see in Peru that we’d recommend spending at least two weeks there. It’s also a good idea to take time to acclimatise to the altitude - locals swear by coca tea to help ease the symptoms.

One of Ongar’s freshest High Street shops celebrates its 1st birthday. 7 September 2025 To mark this milestone we hosted an ‘Open House Week’ leading up to the 6th September as we celebrated Flitch Travel Ongar’s first birthday! I can scarcely believe that it’s now one year since we opened our second Flitch Travel shop in Ongar. Celebrations aplenty We were proud to host a special ‘Open House Week’ from Monday 1st – Saturday 6th September as we celebrated Flitch Travel Ongar’s first birthday in style! We were joined in-store by some of our fabulous tour operator partners - ready to chat all things travel. Main topics were Cruising, Honeymoons, Family Holidays, Luxury Escapes, and Tours & Bucket Lists. Saturday the 6th was our anniversary day, and we marked this with a good old party – with cakes, treats, and giveaways, plus bucketloads of travel inspiration! The story so far… Last September we moved in and completely revamped the previously known Barclays Bank building at 186 High Street, Ongar - or Chipping Ongar as it’s also known. The residents of Ongar and its surrounding villages have been wonderfully supportive and the warm-hearted welcome we received has been everything we hoped for, and more. Having been trading in Great Dunmow for over 25 years, it was a daunting prospect opening a second shop, especially in such a prominent position in the centre of town. A huge Thank You from me So from the bottom of my heart, thank you. It has been an absolute pleasure booking holidays, chatting and laughing with so many of you. Our thanks also extend to our fellow local businesses. The community spirit in Ongar is thriving, teamwork is fruitful, and it is an absolute pleasure to be part of it - whether that be business or personal, I enjoy it all. Everyone deserves a great holiday It’s clear to see that folk round here like to travel. From South African Safaris to Disneyland Paris, from a week exploring Dubrovnik’s enchanting old town, to learning about Orangutan rehabilitation in Borneo, we’ve booked it all and much more besides. We’re proud to have many repeat clients already. Many of those who booked during our opening month have since returned to our shop to book again for a second getaway, and to secure holidays for 2026 with a low deposit. We care about your holiday like it’s our own We specialise in tailoring holidays to meet your individual needs and desires, ensuring every trip you take through us is an unforgettable experience. I believe this pays homage to our after-booking support. As your travel agent we will take care of all your “Hadmin” (modern slang abbreviation for Holiday Admin, all that boring but oh so important, you mustn’t make a mistake, stuff). We will check passports, visas, complete your checking in and print all your boarding passes - in short, we do the hard work, so you don’t have to. Come and see us at 186 High Street, Ongar If you haven’t yet popped in to see the shop, please do - you just might see a familiar face. Amie, one of our award-winning travel agents, used to work for Barclays in the very same building. If I say the lovely lady with beautiful long golden hair, then I am certain it will ring a few bells. I am stoked to have Amie on the team; she brings fantastic customer service and a wealth of travel knowledge to Ongar. Rooted in Ongar The shop manager and award-winning travel agent is Amelia. If she’s not off on a luxury expedition somewhere you will find her in the shop keen to share her worldwide travel experiences. Amelia’s organisation skills are second to none - book in her shop and you’ll be sure to have every request actioned. Amelia has deep roots in Ongar. Her Great Grandfather made such an impact on the local community a few decades ago that a street is named after him - now if that has got you thinking, you’ll have to drop by and catch up with Amelia to find out more. A holiday happy place The shop in Ongar boasts our innovative Cruise wall, upon which we have a huge selection of cruise brochures and offers, from small boutique and river cruising, to large and luxury cruise liners. We’ve got it all. Opposite the Cruise wall we have our fabulous Holiday wall, with lots of exciting brochures, updated regularly, to fuel your holiday inspiration. Come on in and help yourself or ask the team to point you in the right direction - the kettle is always on so sit down and we’ll make you a cuppa whilst we discuss your next adventure. We’re always very grateful for your support and we can’t wait to see you.

Explore Europe You'll want to visit again and again. Europe Nowhere else in the world do you find so much diversity in such a small area. A short trip from the UK and you can be in one of 44 different countries - some modern and familiar, some unusual and exotic - comprising many different landscapes, climates, languages, cultures, traditions and cuisines. For destinations that combine ease of travel with great weather, food and activities, we recommend Croatia, Italy, Cyprus, Greece, Portugal & Madeira, Spain & her islands and Turkey. REQUEST A CALLBACK Share this article with friends & family: Facebook WhatsApp Copy link To get the most from your European holiday, it’s wise to first think about the type of trip you want to do. For example, if it’s history and culture you want then you can’t go wrong with Italy or Greece; if you’re mad for water sports, Croatia is a fantastic choice with a coast that’s just made for sailing and sea kayaking. Travelling in winter opens up a world of accessible ski holidays in the renowned Alpine resorts as well as lesser-known locations in both Western and Eastern European countries. You may even yearn for a fairytale Christmas escape, in which case the frost-tipped forests, frozen lakes and seasonal associations of Lapland will be for you. Each country within the continent is easily reached by air, road and rail and your journey can easily become an integral part of your experience. Rail travel in Europe is highly enjoyable - try the scenic Glacier Express in Switzerland or take the famous Orient Express to Venice. There are also a great range of river and sea cruises taking in classic European scenery and attractions, and driving is easy and pleasurable in most countries. Whatever you decide, the best course of action is to define what you want from your Europe holiday and pop into Flitch Travel for a chat - we have a wealth of experience and will tailor your holiday package to meet your exact needs. ITALY HOLIDAYS With so much on offer, choose an Italian multi-centre holiday. Spend a few days exploring the hidden secrets of Florence; rent a car and head to the Tuscany Coast where rolling hills meet the Mediterranean Sea; journey by train from the vibrant city of Rome to the beautiful coastal vistas and tantalising cuisine afforded in Sorrento. There is a huge variety of experiences beckoning including cooking classes, opera, historical landmarks and so much more! GREECE HOLIDAYS Home of Zeus, Aphrodite, Athena, Poseidon and many other mythological characters, Greece is a truly magnificent holiday destination. Holidays to Greece are the perfect way to see fantastic ancient architecture, taste sumptuous Mediterranean cuisine and experience vibrant, colourful culture. Must do: go remote and visit one of the Aegean islands. Flitch Travel are proud to offer a unique collection of hotels within this cluster of gems complete with a choice of car or boat hire! PORTUGAL HOLIDAYS Vineyard-filled rolling hills, dramatic cliffs, sandy beaches, year-round sunshine and stunning hotels - it’s no wonder Portugal is such a popular luxury holiday destination. The island of Madeira is famous for its wine, hiking trails and beautiful scenery. Must do: hire a car to get off the beaten track and discover your own coves, beaches and restaurants. In Madeira, take a cable car up to the top of the mountain then ride back down in a toboggan - not for the faint hearted! START PLANNING YOUR NEXT HOLIDAY...

Mysterious Middle East The world’s hottest destination? Middle East Quickly becoming the world’s hot travel destination, the Middle East is an enticing mix of exotic culture, ancient civilisations, modern attraction and beautiful landscapes. The region is also home to some of the planet’s most hospitable people. From stopover shopping and indulgence, to family beach holidays featuring adrenaline-fuelled water parks, to tranquil but intrepid desert safaris, the Middle East offers so much. REQUEST A CALLBACK Share this article with friends & family: Facebook WhatsApp Copy link Although traditionally conservative, the United Arab Emirates is one of the most liberal countries in the Middle East and the tolerant tourist centres will look very familiar to Western eyes, albeit with scale and modernity that never fails to impress. Travel further afield and history remains a living part of everyday life. You’ll see some of the most glorious Islamic architecture to be found anywhere, well-preserved Roman sites stretching the length of the Mediterranean Coast, ancient souks and romantic riads. DUBAI HOLIDAYS There’s no doubt that Dubai is one of the most popular tourist destinations worldwide. Flying direct from Stansted, the Emirate makes for an easy stopover for a taste of Arabian luxury and shopping for designer brands in the swanky malls, and an insight into the Arabian culture and people - haggling for keepsakes in souks is a ‘must do’! Experience the world-class hotels, marvel at the futuristic new city, relax at luxurious spas and spend a night out under the desert stars. ABU DHABI HOLIDAYS The capital of the United Arab Emirates, Abu Dhabi offers shimmering turquoise waters, amazing white beaches and a range of activities for water sports enthusiasts. In contrast, its historic sites, heritage attractions, arts and museums illustrate its deep-rooted past and Islamic traditions. Food is a particular feature of Abu Dhabi and cuisine from around the world mingle in vibrant restaurants that offer varied international flavours and impressive culinary standards. OMAN HOLIDAYS The Sultanate of Oman is a great destination for the adventurous. From hiking in the mountains to 4x4 trips into the beautiful desert, there is something for every thrill seeker here. With a 1,700 kilometre coastline beautiful beaches abound and for the most part not over-crowded - it’s not unusual to have the place all to yourself! The waters around the coast are spectacular for diving and teeming with marine life. Expect to see turtles, sharks, rays and dolphins as well as beautiful corals and plenty of colourful fish.

Sam Aftersales A little about me I'm Sam, a mum of two little boys. I joined the Flitch Travel family as Aftersales and Admin, and travel has always been a big part of my life. Coming from a background of hairdressing, the client’s needs and building great relationships have always been so important to me. I love solving any issues that may arise. Incidentally, always let us know if you're celebrating, congratulating, or just having a long-anticipated trip with friends - we always endeavour to make that trip extra special! Most memorable holiday? I have had many memorable holidays but one that can’t be beaten is taking my boys to Lapland. Every experience was incredible, the elves, the reindeer - my personal favourite was the husky ride, but seeing the ‘real’ Father Christmas was out of this world (even if it was -35 degrees!) Top travel tip? Always pack a spare pair of undies in your hand luggage, just in case your luggage goes missing. If I had to pick one destination… My recommendation for the next family trip will always be Disney. Gathering all of your friends and family at the train station for a journey that's just three hours away, and the first sighting of Sleeping Beauty’s castle - or meeting up at the airport with your Mickey Mouse ears on ready to fly to America to see Cinderella’s castle. Both are equally magical!

We have just returned from our once-in-a-lifetime trip and couldn’t be happier with all the arrangements made for us. We had an amazing time. Peter Billing The Only Way to Book! Amie & Amelia have been outstanding! I usually handle our holiday bookings, but I must say I have enjoyed taking a back seat this time. Ladies, this is definitely the first of many more! Roll on October....I'll be back! Caroline Smith I will always tell anyone 1000% to use Flitch Travel with complete peace of mind. Thanks again Tina for amazing customer service. Gem Leigh Amelia was incredibly helpful and guided us through the booking process. Nothing was too much trouble, and upon completing our booking, we received a box of chocolates that was greatly appreciated. Abi Jenkins I’ve visited Flitch Travel a few times, and Amelia has been exceptionally kind and helpful. I will definitely be using Flitch Travel for all my flights. My daughter has booked flights with you as well on my recommendation. I’ve also shared with many friends what a great service you provide.

Claire Katie Eastaugh Very friendly and understanding. We had a detailed set of requirements which Flitch managed in a way that made us feel that an individual plan was being made. Sharon A big thank you to Rebecca of Flitch Travel, I went in not really knowing where to go for my family holiday, I gave her my requirements, she ran through the pro’s and con’s of various options and I opted for Turkey. Now returned from an amazing time my family and I had at the Resort we chose, I look forward to dealing with her again for my next holiday experience.
