Sark: Britain’s Lost Channel Island

December 23, 2015 by Richard Collett2 Comments

Sark

'Welcome to Sark'- the sign read as I climbed the harbour steps onto the island. With rain lashing down, I ran through a short tunnel carved through the rock of the cliff- the only entrance to the island- and on the other side found a farming tractor, carriage in tow, parking up on the side of the road. 'There's the bus!' someone said, and everyone clambered on for the ride up the hill. This was Sark, an island of only a few square miles … [Read more...]

November 24, 2015 by Rob FLeave a Comment

While lots of people enjoy Christmas at home with family, some like to take the time to get away from the World and go on a relaxing Christmas vacation. While much of the World is shrouded in Winter and the unpredictable weather that accompanies it, many Winter destinations make great Christmas getaways.

Time to exhale in the South of France

November 13, 2015 by Cecile Riphagen4 Comments

Provence triggers images of lavender, sun flowers and olive trees. Many have read the enjoyable novels written by Peter Mayle, visited anything Van Gogh in Arles and mused over the paintings of Cézanne. Everybody knows all areas of the Provence, or so they believe. There is a part of Provence less famous and therefore much less crowded than the Lubéron and the Midi. It is not a fancy area with famous wines or Michelin star restaurants but … [Read more...]

Great Spots for Island Hopping

November 4, 2015 by Megan TLeave a Comment

One of the best parts about travelling is that you can explore multiple locations that you’ve loved on past visits or are eager to discover. While all-inclusive destination holidays can be relaxing and fun, they don’t give you the opportunity to move from one great spot to the next the way you can with a cruise. Whether you’re a history geek looking to visit historical sites, or a culture fan wanting to soak up the local music and food scene, … [Read more...]

Discovering the Kruger National Park

October 20, 2015 by Roxanne de BruynLeave a Comment

"Look, we have visitors!" My husband hurried outside, excited at catching his first glimpse of animals in the wild. I followed him, smiling at the baby warthog's efforts to dig up roots from the ground. Hearing something behind me, I turned and found a family of zebras standing by the deck, one rubbing an ear against a tree. That was our introduction to Marloth Park, a tourist village near the Crocodile Gate of the Kruger National Park. For … [Read more...]
