Travelling the world is about more than just the places you visit; it’s about the moments that stay with you, and that’s exactly how Lucy, our Touring Ambassador of the Month, sees it.
For a 2027 escape that feels immersive, magical, and entirely unforgettable, a tour around The Wonders of Costa Rica delivers effortlessly. Picture rainforest canopies alive with wildlife, coastlines that shift from serene to untamed, and a rhythm of life that encourages you to slow down and savour every second.

Meet April's Touring Ambassador: Lucy!
Say hello to Lucy, your go-to expert for all things touring and holidays to Costa Rica!
🧡 Role: Homework
🧡 Title: Title: Hays Travel Personal Travel Consultant
“I’m proud to be a Touring & Adventure Ambassador for Hays Travel, helping clients discover incredible journeys that go beyond the ordinary. If it’s immersive, adventurous and unforgettable, that’s my kind of travel!”
Q1: Have you been on a tour before? If so, which one?
Yes, I’ve been on several tours, each offering a completely different flavour of travel. My most recent tour was Natural Highlights of Costa Rica with Exodus Travel, where misty cloud forests gave way to volcanic landscapes, and each day brought encounters with sloths, monkeys and vividly coloured birdlife. It’s a place that hums with life and raw, untamed beauty. I’ve also been to Vietnam with Mercury Holidays, enjoyed a relaxed pace in Spain with Titan Travel, and immersed myself in the sounds of Southern USA with Trafalgar.

Q2: How would you describe the tour in one word?
Effortless.
It’s the art of seeing more, without the strain of stitching it all together yourself. Each journey flows seamlessly from one destination to the next, pairing the thrill of discovery with the quiet luxury of everything already in place. Plus, with expert guides who unlock the stories behind each setting, and the gentle camaraderie in sharing the experience with like-minded travellers, there’s not a single detail left to chance.
Q3: What touring destination would you recommend and why?
Vietnam, as it doesn’t simply reveal itself; it unfolds slowly like a story you never want to end. From emerald rice terraces that ripple across the hills to lantern-lit streets glowing softly at dusk, every corner feels touched by something quietly magical. If you’re searching for a journey rich in colour, layered with culture, and stitched together by unforgettable moments, Vietnam doesn’t just meet expectations, it exceeds them.
Q4: What’s your dream tour and why?
I’ve always been drawn to wildlife, nature, and anything connected to the ocean, so my dream tour would have to centre around that sense of wonder. At the top of my list is Cape Town in South Africa, where I could experience seeing great white sharks in their natural habitat, something I’ve wanted to do since I was a little girl. Equally, the idea of an expedition-style journey is impossible to ignore. Whether it’s Antarctica or the Galápagos Islands, the chance to explore dramatic glaciers, remote landscapes, and wildlife would be unforgettable.

Q5: What’s your top tip for someone going on a touring holiday?
Pack light and be flexible as touring holidays move at a great pace, so being comfortable and open to new experiences will help you get the most out of every day.
Q6: Why should customers consider a touring holiday?
For me, touring is all about those once-in-a-lifetime moments, the kind that draw you closer to nature and linger long after the journey ends. It’s not just about where you go, but how deeply you experience it. Which is exactly why I’d always recommend a touring holiday. Every detail is thoughtfully taken care of, from where you stay to how you move between each stop, leaving you free to truly switch off. Plus, with expert guides bringing each destination to life, you can immerse yourself in the culture, uncover hidden gems, and experience every highlight.

Lucy's story is a reminder that touring isn’t just about where you go, it’s about how deeply you experience it. Whether it’s drifting through Halong Bay at sunrise, witnessing wildlife on safari, or dreaming of cherry blossoms in Japan, the right journey has the power to stay with you forever.
