Kirker Holidays
For discerning travellers
Since creating their first luxury short breaks in 1986, Kirker’s aim has been to provide discerning travellers with a carefully selected range of hotels combined with tailor-made travel arrangements, comfortable private transfers, and well researched itineraries that enable you to make the most of your budget and the time you have available.
Kirker Holidays’ destinations include the classic cultural cities and relaxing rural regions of Europe from Paris and St Petersburg to Venice and Vienna, as well as Tuscany, Provence, Andalucia and the Douro Valley.
For those in search of a longer ‘short break’, Kirker also offers tailor-made holidays to the dramatic landscapes of North Africa and the Middle East, India and Southern Africa – all with the benefit of carefully-chosen hotels and expert local guides.
Why Travel with Kirker Holidays?
Kirker’s range of city breaks includes not only travel arrangements, transfers and hotel accommodation, but also a wide range of extras from museum passes and gallery tickets to private walking tours.
For those who prefer to travel with like-minded companions, Kirker’s programme of Cultural Tours and Music Holidays offers small groups in the company of an expert tour leader or lecturer.
- The team of Kirker destination experts has travelled throughout Europe and beyond extensively and can offer personal, first-hand advice on the best hotels to suit your requirements and the ideal time to travel.
- The Kirker Concierge is on hand at all times to recommend local restaurants, book a table for dinner, or to arrange concert and opera tickets prior to your departure. Nothing is too much trouble!
