Four top holiday hotspots for summer 2014

Featured Guest Post

With summer 2013 now well and truly over, the sun, sea and fun of your next summer holiday may well feel like a long way off.

But if you want to get the best deals and the best locations for your 2014 break now is the perfect time to start planning. So don’t wallow in those winter blues, take a look at these top summer holiday hotspots and get booking.

1. Cuba

For many years Cuba was an exotic and mysterious destination, visited only by intrepid travellers and those in the know. However, recently the sun-drenched Caribbean island has begun to open its doors to tourists, welcoming them into its colourful cities, beautiful landscapes and vibrant culture.

And with the politics and economy of the island changing fast, this is the perfect time to go and experience a little bit of old Cuban magic.

2. Turkey

With its long sandy beaches, great climate and delicious cuisine, it’s no wonder that Turkey is fast becoming one of the world’s favourite holiday destinations.

So if you’ve still not discovered what this incredible country has to offer, make 2014 the year that you find your very own slice of Turkish delight.

3. Greece

With its islands, cities, mountains, historical sites and vibrant nightlife, Greece really does offer something for everyone and makes the perfect destination for pretty much any kind of holiday.

However due to recent economic difficulties, you might require additional travel insurance if you’re planning a visit to the country so check out Thomas Cook Travel Extras for details before you book.

4. Florida

As far as active family holidays go, Florida is pretty hard to beat.

Boasting beaches, national parks, great weather and more theme parks than you can shake a stick at, Florida is a fantastic destination for families who like to pack as much as possible into their week away.

To make the most of your trip, try to combine a few days of roller coaster riding with a relaxing break by the sea. That way your kids will be entertained and you can still have a little bit of peace and quiet.

Though it may seem a long way off, summer 2014 will be hear before you know it. Book your family holiday and now and you’re guaranteed to have the trip of a lifetime!
