Group travel sounds like a great idea in theory – who doesn’t want to see the world (or at least some of it) with their friends and family? In practice, travelling with your nearest and dearest isn’t always a walk in the park – something I can attest to. I recently returned from a fortnight backpacking around Mexico with three friends. What should have been a dream trip turned out to be a disaster as we fell out over food, finance and almost everything under the sun. After seven patience testing days, I decided to salvage the trip by splitting from my ‘friends’ and going solo.

Twenty five miles away from Cancun, the most popular destination for British and Irish tourists is Ethos, a rather strange sounding name for a farm. What’s stranger still is the way a resort chain – Sunset World – has developed what could be a significant Mexican tourist attraction

In Lanzarote visits are up by a third over 2009 and holidays to Gran Canaria and Tenerife are up as well. Some are saying that numbers are nearly back to those pre-recession days. In July alone 450,554 of us just went to Tenerife
