Following strong demand from customers looking for more discovery-based experience holidays, Jet2CityBreaks has expanded its Discover More collection to Marrakech and Krakow for the first time.
The UK’s leading operator of European city breaks is offering customers and independent travel agents the chance to book Discover More getaways to Marrakech that include a tour of the historic city, as well as holidays to Krakow with an Auschwitz tour included.
The new Discover More packages to Marrakech give holidaymakers the chance to experience Marrakech’s top spots in one day. Customers will be able to tick off the mesmerising Bahia Palace, Saadian Tombs and Koutoubia Mosque gardens, before making their way to the famous Jemaa el-Fna square, where souks stuffed with treasures and trinkets await. Lunch will then be served in a traditional Moroccan restaurant, followed by free time to explore the city.
Jet2CityBreaks will start operating city breaks to Marrakech for both Winter 24/25 and Summer 25 from 4th October 2024 from four UK airports - Birmingham, Glasgow, Manchester and London Stansted.
The full flying programme is as follows:
- Birmingham – two weekly flights operating from 4th October 2024 right through to 14th November 2025.
- Glasgow – two weekly flights operating from 4th November 2024 until 28th April 2025, and from 3rd October to 14th November 2025. Marrakech is an exclusive route to Jet2.com and Jet2holidays from Glasgow Airport.
- Manchester – two weekly flights operating from 4th October 2024 right through to 14th November 2025.
- London Stansted – two weekly flights operating from 4th October 2024 right through to 14th November 2025.
For customers traveling to Krakow on a Discover More trip, the city break will include a tour of Auschwitz, offering an insightful and educational experience. The UNESCO-listed Auschwitz stretches for more than 200 hectares and is a monument to the millions of people who lost their lives during World War II. The extensive complex has been carefully preserved in tribute and offers customers the chance to learn about the history of Auschwitz, as well as pay their respects.
During the journey to Auschwitz, customers on a Discover More package will view a documentary explaining the site’s history, and will then have an informative guided tour of both camps.
Jet2CityBreaks is on sale to Krakow for Summer 24, Winter 24/25 and Summer 25 and operates to the popular city break destination from across eight UK airports - Belfast International, Birmingham, East Midlands, Glasgow, Leeds Bradford, Liverpool John Lennon, Manchester and Newcastle International.
As well as being able to explore the sights of these two city break destinations, holidaymakers booking Discover More getaways will be able to take advantage of all the benefits of booking a holiday through the city break specialist. This includes flights with Jet2.com, including 22kg hold luggage and 10kg hand baggage allowance, as well as accommodation and ATOL protection all for a low £60 per person deposit.
Discover More is a collection of experience-based city breaks and holidays that have been designed to appeal to those with a sense of adventure, whether that involves ticking off historic sights, delving into local cultures, or soaking up knockout scenery. As well as Marrakech and Krakow, the Discover More range currently includes Porto, Iceland, Bergen and the Fjords, Turkey, Malta and Croatian cruises.
