As always, our team of luxury travel experts are here to guide you and have curated a list of their top destinations for June.

Where to go on holiday in June

Italy

Indulge in an Italian escape that invites you to savor the finer things in life. Your journey could include a truffle hunting experience in Lisciano Niccone, guided by a local expert and their loyal canine companion. Or, in Portofino, set out on a private 'Gozzo' expedition accompanied by a knowledgeable geologist to explore the captivating coastline. For something on a grander scale, trace the route of Homer's Odyssey by private yacht with Pelorus Yachting — from Sicily's ancient temple valleys through the Aeolian Islands to the Amalfi Coast, with historian guides and cinematic reenactments bringing mythology to life along the way.

Croatia

Discover the magic of Croatia in June, where the Adriatic coastline glistens under the summer sun and historic towns come alive with energy. Begin your journey in Dubrovnik, wandering its UNESCO-listed Old Town and walking the ancient city walls for panoramic sea views. Venture inland to Krka National Park to explore cascading waterfalls and emerald pools, or head to Istria for private truffle hunting experiences in medieval hilltop villages. On the islands, soak up local culture with curated vineyard visits, olive oil tastings, and sunset dining by the sea. Croatia offers a seamless blend of nature, history, and indulgence.

Luxury travel experience in Peru featuring traditional Peruvian cultural celebrations

Peru

Immerse yourself in the heart of Peruvian culture with an exclusive Winter Solstice festival experience. On the 24th June, embrace the grandeur of the Incan Empire’s largest celebration, the Inti Raymi marking the winter solstice and honouring the sun god Inti. Elsewhere, explore the Paracas desert in ATV buggies and journey into the lush Peruvian Amazon to encounter a rich tapestry of wildlife, from exotic bird species to monkeys, sloths, capybara and snakes.

Scotland

June brings long days and luminous light to the Scottish Highlands, some of the best conditions of the year to explore them. Step inside a real-life Traitors experience set across a private castle, where intrigue and drama unfold against a backdrop of ancient stone and Highland wilderness. For something more contemplative, the Caledonian Odyssey moves through the Highlands by land, tracing the landscape at its own pace. Or let Scotland's most storied distilleries lead the way on an immersive whisky journey, going behind the casks with the people who know them best.
