About your itinerary
?
Don't forget that if something isn't quite right we can make changes to the itinerary.
I am so thrilled to present you with this gorgeous trip to see London, Barcelona, and Mykonos.
I know this is the trip that first piqued your interest in Out Of Office, so I am so excited to get this into your inbox.
As we discussed yesterday, flights for 2025 are currently out of date range, so I have not included your leg from the USA at this stage, as we discussed we can add these at a later date, or you can use your points to get these booked.
I have swapped out the hotel in London that I included in your January trip for the Kimpton Fitzroy as we can secure you fantastic rates here in the summer months and the location is just as ideal. I have kept the other excursions as per your original itinerary as these are some of the most fantastic experiences you can have in the capital.
I have penciled in flights from London to Barcelona and chosen the dreamy Mandarin Oriental Barcelona, which I hope you will agree offers a dreamy oasis in the heart of the city. To make your trip to Spain as authentic as possible, I have added a Tapas and Flamenco show, as well as a guided tour of two of my favorite spots in the city, Park Guell and La Sagrada Familia.
From Spain I have included your flights over to Mykonos where you will be staying at the stunning Myconian Utopia – this is the height of Greek luxury, and I am so excited to hear your thoughts on this resort! To round off this amazing adventure, you will have highlights of Mykonos tour, to check out the most picture-perfect spots on the island as well as a fabulous foodie experience to try some delightful local produce and dishes.
The price of this itinerary is higher than the other trip we have been mapping out, however if you guys really want to experience the UK, Spain and Greece, stay in some of these locations most fabulous resorts and have some super special experiences, I would say it is 100% worth it. As I mentioned before, should you want to look at bringing this down, we can absolutely find some great alternatives.
I am so excited to speak to you tomorrow and find out what you and Joshua think about this amazing trip! I look forward to catching up at 6pm then.
Best travels,
Matt Walters

Private Vehicle from London Heathrow Airport to The Clermont, Charing Cross
Private Vehicle from London Heathrow Airport to The Clermont, Charing Cross
Your friendly driver will meet you in the arrivals lounge at LHR, ready to get your London adventure started, taking you to your first hotel, The Clermont, Charing Cross.
The Clermont, Charing Cross for 4 nights
The Clermont, Charing Cross for 4 nights
There’s a renewed vigour about this familiar Charing Cross landmark, one of the 19th-century’s great station hotels. Now with a new name, more is being made of the hotel’s illustrious past but firmly within a contemporary setting. Interiors are opulent, while the rooms offer comfort and modernity.
Set right above Charing Cross station, it’s blessed with excellent train, Tube and bus links. The National Gallery and National Portrait Gallery are just around the corner and the hotel is well positioned for the West End theatres, Covent Garden and river bus routes along the Thames. Have an ice cream in Victoria Embankment Gardens, or pop into reputedly London’s oldest wine bar, Gordon’s, which dates from 1890, on Villiers Street.
The hotel’s French Renaissance exterior (it was completed in 1865 by the same architect who designed the Royal Opera House) is slightly lost as it lies above the entrance to Charing Cross station, although the Eleanor Cross memorial lends a certain grandeur to the forecourt. Head beyond the understated entrance and lobby and you are in a world of Instagrammable delights, from the impressive original staircase to a red telephone box. Elsewhere the Clermont Restaurant and Bar on the first floor is the go-to spot; French influences are revealed via numerous fashion-oriented paintings that reflect how the hotel was popular with 19th-century continental travellers.
The ballroom – once the hotel’s coffee house and restaurant (now used for meetings or events) is worth a peek for its sculpted ceiling and stained-glass windows. The distinctive bridge above Villiers Street connects the Buckingham Wing of rooms that was added in 1888.
The high-ceilinged dining room and adjacent bar are special indeed with plush seating and paintings of 19th-century fashions and botanical images. The bar is certainly popular early evening with its view of The Strand and beyond, plus a fun range of cocktails including a Smoked Cuban Old Fashioned and the tequila-based Bombin, while the dining room has the feel of a turn-of-the-century tea salon.
Aim for the glass conservatory, which sits above the main entrance and offers great views; the central sofa seat has the best panorama. The classic British all-day menu is top-notch with dishes such as roasted sea bass fillets, steak and ale pie and chargrilled chicken. Afternoon tea is available (from £30), and breakfast is well worth making time for with a mix of self-service and à carte dishes – the Cornish crab and cured salmon omelette is a winner.
Your room: Deluxe King Room
All rooms have a fresh look and share a neutral palette with splashes of colour coming via cushions and blankets. Local London-influenced artworks feature on the walls.

Tapas & Flamenco Show in Barcelona
This experience will open your eyes to two of Barcelona's most iconic exports; mouth-watering Tapas and spellbinding Flamenco, two elements fundamental to Spanish life.
Your private guide will take you on a walk through the Gothic Quarter stopping along the way to have some tapas and local wines or beers before enjoying a flamenco show in an intimate setting.
Eating tapas, small portions of different dishes is much like a progressive dinner, but instead of moving from house to house, you are moving from tapas tavern to tapas tavern – each place having its specialty and all in the company of your local expert guide. This is a unique opportunity to experience an evening like a local, tasting local dishes, exploring the Gothic Quarter, and enjoying an authentic flamenco show.
This memorable evening is an amazing way to see the Gothic Quarter, enjoy scrumptious tapas and immerse yourself in an enthralling live flamenco show.
