Welcome...
Issue 3
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
television 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.
