Neilson Active Holidays
There are active holidays. And there's a Neilson active holiday. There aren't many holiday companies where 7 out of 10 guests return to relive the experience again. Then again there aren't many holiday companies like Neilson. You'll find us on beaches and ski slopes in some of Europe's most beautiful settings. All our activities are inclusive, likewise the delicious, locally sourced food. And needless to say, adrenaline and endorphins are always available. As the UK's leading provider of overseas activity holidays, we consistently win travel awards for what we do. And, even if we say so ourselves, nobody does it quite like we do. Our holidays are a unique alchemy; the enthusiasm of amazing guests and the dedication of equally amazing staff; the best facilities and the best locations; a willingness to give it a go now and have a laugh about it later. We call it good energy. And sun-kissed or snow-frosted, you can feel it as soon as you walk into any of our resorts.
