Two-Centre Holidays to New York and Bermuda

Want to add something special to your Bermuda holiday? Consider visiting New York as part of a multi-centre trip.

Bermuda is one of the premier luxury holiday destinations in the world, yet many people want even more from their holidays than these beautiful islands can provide on their own. Increasingly, they are choosing to pay a visit to a very special American city as part of their holidays to Bermuda...

If you are looking to find another destination to combine with your visit to Bermuda, New York may not be the first place that springs to mind. It's hard to think of two places that are so totally different - Bermuda is famed for desert island luxury, New York for being one of the great cities of the world, and while Bermuda offers total relaxation, New York is a bustling metropolis that never sleeps. But for many this is the appeal of visiting both destinations in a single holiday.

If you are looking for a trip that combines two very diverse experiences, a multi-centre holiday to Bermuda and New York could be exactly what you are looking for...

The Highlights

For luxury holiday destinations, there are few places that can match Bermuda. Consisting of over one hundred and fifty islands, the country offers glorious pink sandy beaches, five star hotels, local hospitality, and numerous opportunities to enjoy spas, golf, fine dining, and countless other luxury holiday experiences to its visitors. Bermuda can be visited all year round, but it is particularly popular as a winter sun destination for people looking to escape chilly weather at home.

What can be said about New York that hasn't been said before? One of the most exciting and vibrant cities in the world, New York offers everything from outstanding theatre to high fashion, outstanding cuisine and some truly outstanding luxury hotels. Sights such as Central Park, the Empire State Building and the Statue of Liberty are amongst the most famous in the world, and New York has something to offer every visitor, whether you want to soak up some culture, see the sights, or just lose yourself in the busy streets of the city.

The Practicalities

If you are flying to Bermuda from the UK, it is easy to arrange a stop off in New York at the start or the end of your holiday, and luxury holiday companies can make arrangements for flights to stop off in New York often without adding significantly to the cost of the journey. Usually you'll pay a little extra in taxes, but it is a small price to pay to experience the delights of New York city!

This two-centre holiday can be done at any time of the year, but winter is an especially good time to visit Bermuda and New York. The sudden change from relaxing on a tropical beach to walking through the snow covered streets of the city makes the contrast between the two even stronger, and New York in winter can be a magical place ' seeing in the New Year in Times Square isn't an experience that you are ever likely to forget!
