The best way to see any new place is to walk around outdoors. In Paris, where the interiors are every bit as incredible as the architecture, it can be tempting to spend your days inside, gazing at ornate paintings, lighting, and gilded features. But as you head from destination to the next, we have to insist that you take your time to soak up the city's incredible design. Many of the most iconic Paris landmarks are its historic buildings and monuments.

Ikos has brought its luxury all-inclusive offering to Corfu with its breathtaking new family hotel, Ikos Odisia. Having kids can really ruin your holiday fun. While precious annual leave was previously used for spontaneous adventures, or city breaks feasting on the best culture Europe has to offer, or hours spent snoozing on a sun lounger, now they come with a little person (or two or three) in tow – who invariably has their own, very specific, ideas about what a holiday should and shouldn’t look like (and it probably doesn’t involve reading the latest Sunday Times bestseller in the shade with an Aperol in hand).

Folegandros may be one of Greece’s best-kept secrets. The 12-square-mile western Cycladic island is one of those “hard to get to, but worth it once you get there” destinations, reached only by boat or helicopter. Often referred to as the anti-Mykonos, its year-round population hovers in the 750 range. Cruise ships do not dock here. There is no Uber or Lyft. But Folegandros (which, according to myth, is named for the son of King Minos of Crete) does have a dreamy new resort, that they say will introduce the island to “the discerning Greek island hopper.”
