We always say it and we will never tire of repeating it: don’t focus on one destination, open your mind to other opportunities. And it is true. The offers in this section, to a large extent, have that function: to make us change course. Do you want to go to the beaches of the Caribbean and suddenly an extraordinary discount appears to travel to Nepal?… Don’t hesitate.
This week, for example, we have found many getaways of a few days through the national territory and Portugal for those restless minds who want to take advantage of the dates before Christmas, or a great trip to Southeast Asia for those who have more time. As always, you decide.
Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand are 3 destinations that are on the minds of all those people who are passionate about travel. It is a classic. If it was one of those places that you had on your list of favorites, congratulations, since this is a very complete proposal that includes a cruise through Halong Bay. We wanted to highlight it because it is not easy to find trips of this style and duration for less than €3,000.
Includes international and internal flights; 16 nights in hotels with breakfast; transfers; a cruise through Halong Bay, and accompanying Spanish-speaking guide.

This is one of those “hotel flight” combinations that you have to look at carefully. It is perfect, as it allows you to get to know a great destination like Lisbon, with flights from Spain and with accommodation, the 4-star Lisboa Plaza hotel, located in the center of the capital. They offer you all this to spend 4 days – on several departures between December and February – for less than €200 per person. Almost unbeatable.
Includes flights from Spain; 3 nights in the aforementioned hotel with breakfast; upgrade; glass of port as a gift, and free entry to 3 Lisbon museums. The price of €2 per night per person must be added to the price.
