...to the latest issue of our regular travel magazine packed full of interesting ideas and destinations to inspire your holiday plans.

It certainly has been an eventful start to the year with geographical and political earthquakes dominating the news. Some popular destinations in North Africa and thereabouts will remain subdued in the short term whilst countries like Egypt and Tunisia pursue their democratic reforms.

We hope that this issue will help to refocus on some excellent European Mediterranean winners. We also draw attention to some truly exciting holiday options further afield in USA, Peru, South Africa, Mauritius and South-East Asia.

For the family what could be more fun than to spend time at a “Dude” ranch in Montana? The Ranch at Rock Creek has it all! Of course, if it is sun and sea that you are after then this issue is packed with great family friendly options in Croatia, Crete and Mauritius. We have also discovered an absolute gem of a resort with the Finca Cortesin in southern Spain.

Join us on the ultimate journey of discovery in Peru as we outline a 14 night adventure taking in the riverine wonders of the Amazon, the mysteries of ancient civilisations and the world’s deepest canyon. Alternatively, we are pleased to review the new rail journeys in South-East Asia aboard the amazing Eastern & Oriental Express.

The last 12 months have seen continued growth for us with many new clients who have been referred by you, our existing clients. As a company that takes immense pride in the quality of the service we provide and are passionate about what we do, we are very grateful to you for recommending us.

We look forward to hearing from you when you next get itchy feet!. With best wishes,
