Welcome to the latest issue of our regular travel magazine
where we hope to stimulate your travel taste buds with a
varied selection of worldwide holiday ideas and
destinations to treat yourself, partner, family or a group of
friends to a well-earned break.
It is always refreshing to be able to feature new places and
it is with great pleasure that we showcase the newly
opened Regent Porto Montenegro. Similarly, D-Hotel
Maris is a relative newcomer, but following many reviews
from happy guests this summer, it is sure to be one of the
hot shots for 2015. The location on the Datca Peninsula is
simply stunning.
In this issue we conclude our two-part spotlight on the
“Golden State”of California looking at the Northern circuit
working around the sights starting in San Francisco and
ending up at one with nature in the Sierra Nevada
Mountains.
Of course, no issue would be complete without some
reference to tropical climes and we hope this issue will not
disappoint those looking for an escape to the sun as we
head both west to the Caribbean and east to The
Maldives. We also travel down to South Africa for an
excellent combination of Safari and Winelands
gastronomy in the company of Sir Richard Branson.
Finally, in keeping with our regular look at the world of
luxury cruising, we embark on a tour of luxury hotel barge
cruising, as featured in Rick Stein’s “French Odyssey” BBC
TV series. We also review the forthcoming introduction in
2015 of the new Suite Class on Celebrity Cruises.
Whether you are looking for a “trip of a lifetime”, a beach
getaway, a luxury city break or just news on some of the
world’s finest hotels and resorts we are sure this issue will
inspire you, so sit back, have a read, then give us a call to
discuss your travel plans
