As the nights draw in and the weather gets colder, it’s no surprise that as the heating bill cranks up and tea breaks become more frequent that thousands turn their minds to winter sun breaks and experiences. That unbeatable feeling of having the sun warm your bones in a tropical climate as the temperature gauge drops below freezing back home – that can represent true escapism.

And whether it’s an all-encompassing tour of the tropical paradise that is Costa Rica, camping in the Sahara Desert in Morocco, soaking up the rays on sunny Mauritius, or getting under the skin of Thai culture on a magical itinerary around South-East Asia, at Not In The Guidebooks we have a wide variety of winter sun breaks and itineraries that come with a 100% guarantee of beating those winter blues.
