    The Tour Operator/Airline/Hotel: Thomson/First Choice
    Departing Airport: Edinburgh

    I would ideally prefer 4* rather than 3* but under no illusion that you get what you pay for. Would love the holiday to cost under 2k. Departure dates are sort of flexible, from Weds 30th July until Mon 11th Aug. Would also consider Glasgow and Newcastle (at a push).

    Many thanks in advance.....
