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.
With predictions of a colder (and no doubt wetter) than
normal UK winter you will be happy to see that this issue
dedicates many pages to destinations that promise
suitably warm winter holiday options.
A focal point for many trips to the Indian Ocean and
beyond is Dubai, an important global air travel hub, and
the headquarters of award-winning airline, Emirates.
Dubai is a spectacular year round destination, with miles
of pristine beaches, a sophisticated and modern city
infrastructure including a series of man-made islands
whilst the nearby desert offers a more traditional yet
beguiling contrast. We therefore begin our journey across
the Indian Ocean with an introduction to this jewel of the
UAE before moving onwards to Mauritius, Sri Lanka and
finally, Indonesia.
Looking westwards, we review the luxury villa scene in
Barbados, a particularly popular Caribbean island. Also,
with terrific fares available to New York, why not consider
a stay at Manhattan’s most exciting and new, Ian Schrager
hotel, The New York Edition.
Our special feature offers a number of diverse suggestions
on multigenerational travel. Keeping everybody happy
when an extended family group share a holiday requires
careful consideration so we hope that we can give you
some useful ideas!
Whether you are looking for a beach getaway, a city break,
a river cruise 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.
