Welcome...
Issue 4
Welcome to the latest issue of our regular
travel magazine where we hope to entice
you 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.
The new buzz word in luxury travel is
experiential. This reflects a growing trend by
discerning
travellers
for
privileged
experiences. We hope we have caught the
flavour within our “Trips of a Lifetime”
feature, where we have highlighted a
number of unforgettable holiday ideas like a
private dinner for 2 on the Great Wall of
China or a trip to the Ice Hotel in northern
Sweden in search of the Northern Lights. All
it needs is a bit of inspiration!
As usual we have a healthy selection of
European features, and with Summer 2015
looming it is becoming clear that the
Mediterranean countries should be very
popular options against a weakened Euro.
Even so, families would be wise to book their
July and August breaks swiftly as increased
demand will see all the favourites booking
out quickly. We have a few suggestions to
get you started.
For those of you who are looking for a special
cruise we are pleased to feature two very
special companies. Traditional gulets are an
excellent way for couples and small groups to
explore
the
eastern
Mediterranean.
Alternatively, small capacity luxury cruising
with a touch of French panache on one of
Ponant’s mega-yachts offers a chance to
explore exceptional, lesser frequented
corners of the world’s oceans including
Antarctica, Alaska and the southern Pacific.
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.
