As glorious as crown jewels may be, Her Majesty's diamonds aren't the only jewels we'll be celebrating this year. We travel to Floriade for the World Horticultural Expo in Regio Veno, as well as cruising sparkling waters to Spain, seeing snow-capped mountains in Northern Italy, Germany's liquid crystal river Rhine, not forgetting Austria, and the South of France's hidden gems.
There's the breathtakingly beautiful Emerald Isles, Jewels and Joys of Jersey and a fantastic Diamond Jubilee celebration taking place at the Royal Edinburgh Tattoo this year. Sometimes, however, our most precious treasures are found on home soil, like the diamond-shaped Isle of Wight shimmering on the South Coast or The Queen of Resorts in Llandudno's Happy Valley. Wherever you choose to travel there will be sights worth seeing onboard a glittering coach that doesn't need horses!
