Bali

Bali's breathtakingly beautiful scenery makes it easy to just settle for the imaginary cliche of the island as a tropical paradise and nothing more. But behind the luxury resorts, picture-perfect rice fields, and idyllic beaches lies a rich culture, steeped in tradition and spirituality, and one of the friendliest and most welcoming places you're likely to find anywhere. Dare to go beyond the comforts of the resort areas to truly explore all the island has to offer and let yourself be rewarded with memories to last a lifetime.

Newcastle upon Tyne

Over the past few decades, Newcastle upon Tyne, or simply Newcastle, has emerged as a prominent city in terms of technical innovation and culture, making it one of Great Britain’s most vibrant cities and a wonderful holiday destination with excellent shopping hot spots and even better nightlife. Connected by seven bridges that span the spectacular riverside, Newcastle (located on the north bank of the River Tyne) and Gateshead (a town situated on the south bank) together form a unified, diverse, and highly lively tourist destination.

Vanuatu

There are few destinations that offer as much diversity, both scenically and culturally, as the archipelago of 83 islands that form Vanuatu. You will be struck by its tropical playgrounds featuring deserted beaches, lush dense forests, pristine waterfalls, rumbling volcanoes, and traditional villages. Vanuatu is the only place on earth where you can officially post your mail from an underwater post office and from the ash plain on the summit of a volcano.

Garmisch-Partenkirchen

Le Cap d'Agde Méditerranée, France

Autumn and winter colours

Discover the destination with all the gorgeous colours of autumn, it is also a place worth discovering.

Shenzhen

In just 30 years, Shenzhen has gone from a quiet fishing village to one of China’s most exciting, fast-paced cities. The city’s booming economy and abundant opportunities attract people from across China, making it a dynamic tech hub and a melting pot of cultures. While Shenzhen may lack a deep historical heritage, it stands out as one of China’s most modern cities, with cutting-edge infrastructure and a vibrant, youthful energy.

Cagliari

The narrow and often steep granite-paved streets of Cagliari’s Castello District are a reminder of a bygone age when the town was dominated at first by Pisans, and later by the Aragonese. Built from white limestone, the walls and towers of the Old Town shimmer in the sun and are a magnificent sight, especially if you are lucky and approach the city from the sea, as the English novelist D.H. Lawrence did in 1921 when he described the Old Town as looking like a "Jerusalem without trees".

Surabaya

Founded nearly eight centuries ago, Indonesia’s second-largest city has seen empires come and go. The founders of the Hindu Majapahit Empire arrived in the late 13th century and remained until the 17th, to be followed by Muslim rulers of Mataram, then the colonialists of the Dutch East India Company. In recent decades, Surabaya has grown into a cosmopolitan seaport and conurbation where 21st-century hotels, apartment towers, and shopping malls stand next to historic mosques and palaces.
