Sky’s the limit  

Tropical Sky, the luxury holiday experts, have expanded their experiential honeymoon offering in response to Irish couples’ demands. A two-week sun holiday for newlyweds no longer suffices, with holidaymakers looking towards more immersive experiences.

The company has launched a new Borneo Jungle & Beach Experience, an Elephant Hills Experience in Thailand or a cultural exploration in Mexico. However, they will also tailor holidays to suit a couple's requirements at tropicalsky.ie.
