If you’re familiar with Witney, you can’t help but make an association with the embodiment of darkness and despair: David Cameron. The floppy haired chillaxer who sent us into a black hole of Brexit misery was the county constituency’s MP for 15 years until 2016 when he bowed out of politics. His resignation is understandable as most of us are sick of hearing/talking about Brexit; imagine what it was like to be Dave.
Whichever way you voted, it has come to the point where you may wish to flee the country to avoid any further Brexit chat (seriously just get it done already, we’re sick to the back teeth!!) and that’s where this week’s Amazing Thames Valley Company can gladly help: luxe tailor-made holidays company Audley Travel.
The expert team at Audley Travel put together the fine details of your holibobs, however unique it may be. These folks have you covered, whether it’s gliding through icebergs on a polar cruise in Svalbad or trekking on horseback through Patagonia. Of course, there are also plenty of options to lounge by a pool to perfect your David Cameron impersonation.
Craig Burkinshaw founded the company in 1996 out of his own love for travel. Fresh out of uni, he began by guiding small group tours around Vietnam. Since then, the company has grown internationally with an office in Boston and has won a flurry of awards. In 2016 Audley was voted as the Times and Sunday Times’ “Best Luxury Tour Operator” and has also received multiple accolades from the Guardian, Condé Nast and the Telegraph.
The recognition comes as no surprise as Burinshaw’s passion for travel is evident in the Audley Travel experience: one of its most impressive features is that every getaway has an allocated expert on hand who has either travelled or lived in that destination. Your itinerary is handcrafted by a specialist who listens to your preferences, budget and requests to create your perfect escape.
You can therefore count on Audley Travel to recommend the best Tango dancing in town and the top places to spot a polar bear!
Unfortunately, the only thing Audley Travel won’t be able to provide is fast-tracked immigration to your dream destination outside of the EU, so you will inevitably have to return to Brexit reality eventually. However, it will be the best intermission possible from picturing Boris stuck on a zipline and Theresa’s robot dance. At least our holiday is in safe hands even if our country isn’t.
So from everyone here at Selective Recruitment, to everyone at Audley Travel WE SALUTE YOU!
