Down to Earth Holidays

Are we the right company for you?

If the answer is 'yes' to most of the following, well, yes, we think we might be!

  1. Do you want a bit of adventure but also like a really good dinner and a comfy bed? (And maybe a glass of wine if possible?).
  2. Would you like a holiday which is imaginative and exciting, with a good quality of service and some really authentic experiences?
  3. Do you want good value for money - not necessarily the cheapest holiday to be found, but a down-to-earth price for a good holiday?
  4. Is a responsible and sustainable way of travelling important to you?
  5. Have you read our 'Poem in a Suitcase' and thought "Oh yes, that sounds right".
  6. Do you want to be sure that the company you're travelling with is bona fide and won't be disappearing with your money or leaving you stranded somewhere?!
  7. Are you happy staying in comfortable, simple, down to earth places (often charming and characterful too), rather than needing out-and-out luxury?
  8. Do you prefer speaking to friendly people who will remember you, treat you like a person rather than a wallet, and help you through all aspects of arranging your holiday?
  9. Even though these are not tailor made holidays, would you like flexibility and ways to tweak the itinerary to make it perfect for you?
  10. Do you like companies that don't bother with a tenth point if they can't think of one that's good enough? Or rather, a company that will tell it like it is, and NOT try and tell you things just to sell you a holiday they don't think you'll like!

Who are we?

Well, we hope we'll become your friends-on-the-inside of travel! Rather than being a big faceless company, we are a small team of travellers in an independent, owner-run company based in rural Suffolk.
We're no fly-by-night company! Down to Earth holidays is part of Tribes Travel, the multi award-winning, sustainable, tailor made travel company founded in 1998.
We started Down to Earth holidays because tailor made travel tends to be on the upper end of most people’s holiday budgets, and we want to offer a more affordable way for people to get to some of the wonderful places we know and love ourselves. We can’t always push the boat out can we?

We are a friendly company you can trust, and we really know our onions in all of the destinations we offer.

So we hope you agree that  Down to Earth holidays has a good and very reputable heritage. And of course, if you decide that you really need a holiday tailor made to your exact requirements, we know just the friendly experts to help you - us (tribes.co.uk)!
At your destination we work with partners who are friends with similar principles to us, and care about you having the best holiday.
