"The Canary Islands lie near the northern coast of Africa surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean. The islands autonomous region is made up of seven large islands: Tenerife, Fuerteventura, Gran Canaria, Lanzarote, La Palma, La Gomera and El Hierro, plus a number of smaller ones.
| | The coasts are blessed with vast sandy beaches full of outstanding reefs, capes and bays. Nevertheless in some areas along the western and northern coasts of Gran Canaria, there are many cliffs and steep rock faces. The Canary Islands are characterised by their volcanic scenery. The volcanic activity of the past has created a most peculiar landscape on the islands, with craters, volcanic cones, volcanic rocks, tubes etc. The island's most emblematic natural landscape has to be Mount Teide which, standing at 3,718 metres high, is the tallest mountain in Spain. The island's geography and low rainfall ensure that there are no major rivers of note.(Turespaña)

| Cyprus - an Island of legends .....
..... that basks year-round in the light of the warm Mediterranean sun. A storied past 10,000 years long has seen civilizations come and go and the likes of everyone from Alexander the Great to Cleopatra stake their claim here - but then, people do tend to get possessive when faced with such beauty. Aphrodite made her home on Cyprus, and travellers throughout antiquity came here just to pay her tribute.
|  | Today Cyprus is a modern country that effortlessly marries European culture with ancient enchantment. Here you will discover a compact world of alluring beaches and fragrant mountain peaks, vineyards studded with olive trees and ancient ruins that stir the imagination, citrus groves and old stone villages where sweet wine flows as freely as conversations at the local café. A carefree place where a sense of timelessness is magnified by the kindness of the people. Visit the quiet beauty of Cyprus in all its dimensions. Cyprus an island that is as exotic as you imagine - and more accessible than you might think." (Cyprus Tourism Organisation)

France has everything to offer the traveller from unspoilt beaches to Quaint Medieval towns. |  | One card France has up its sleeve is its natural environment. Bathed by
three seas and an ocean, France enjoys every type of climate. Bracing air
from the North Sea, invigorating breezes from the English Channel, iodised
sea spray from the Atlantic and the gentle caress of the Mediterranean all
multiply the effects of thalassotherapy. France abounds with natural
springs, gushing forth from mountains or volcanoes, and thermal spas make
use of their specific virtues: here soothing, there energising, or yet another. A marvellous natural environment which will enhance the
enjoyment of your holiday.(Maison de la France)

| Greece - At the crossroads of the world
"Greece is much more than what we are taught at school, or the predictable summer image of glorious sunsets and sandy beaches. In Greece, you are standing at a crossroads of cultures, colours and civilisations, you feel the strength of history and the warmth of being in the southernmost part of Europe, you discover an evolutionary process of thought, influence and experience. A country that despite being rich in history has a populaton that moves towards the future. A country that although statistically small, is huge in its diversity. | A landscape that has given us thousands of postcard images but remains incredibly vibrant and impossible to capture. Greece is a country of beautiful contradictions, a constant journey in time, from the present to the past and back again. Walk through the olive groves, through ancient sites. Move to clusters of sparsely inhabited islands. Roam from the beaches to rocky mountains and explore breathtaking scenery. In Greece the fusion of images becomes more than imagery and turns into reality. Live your myth in Greece." (Greek National Tourism Organisation)

| Italy - is a land celebrated for the arts, .....
..... and not least among the arts that have attained their highest expression in Italy is the art of hospitality. The Italian welcome is as warm and traditional as a glass of fine wine. This comparison is apt, for travellers in ancient times gave the country its first name: Land of Wines. Italians are such good hosts because they get so much practice welcoming visitors from all over the world. Italy is one of the most popular vacation countries in Europe, all seasons being good for a visit. |  | In summer, Italy is an international playground, with visitors from all continents mingling with vacationing Italians at the famous resorts. Spring comes early to Italy and autumn lingers - and so will the wise traveller who wants to enjoy at a more leisurely pace the art centres, the large cities and the holiday resorts such as those in the Lombardian lake region where spring and fall are ideal seasons.
The miracle of Italy is that all its treasures come packaged in a gorgeous country of majestic mountains, placid lakes, idyllic islands, splendid cities and wonderful walled villages. An ideal climate plus warm and gracious people make Italy a perfect destination for an active vacation, the art lover or the gourmand." (Italian Government Tourist Board)

| Malta & Gozo - you'll explore 7000 years of history .....
..... yet live passionately in the present. You'll span the millennia with an astonishing array of things to discover. And wherever you go, the Islands' scenery and architecture provide a spectacular backdrop. The colours are striking. Honey-coloured stone against the deepest of Mediterranean blues. The Maltese Islands have been described as one big open-air museum. What makes them unique is that so much of their past is visible today.
|  | Delve into the Islands' mysterious prehistory, retrace the footsteps of St Paul or see where the Knights of St John defended Christendom.
But Malta is no regular museum. Here life is lived to the full, so make time for some living history and action. Visit locations where Oscar-winning blockbusters were filmed or go off the beaten track into ancient villages. Marvel at the fireworks and revelry of the summertime fiestas and enjoy a packed calendar of events all year round." (Malta Tourism Authority)
