    AWESOME DEAL – Free Transfers and Half Board at the Waldorf Astoria Maldives!

  • SH Vega - Charlotte Bay
    REVIEW – Swan Hellenic Antarctica Cruise
    March 28, 2024 0
    Belmond's Hiram Bingham is a beautifully restored and maintained train, which truly immersed us in the golden age of rail travel. There is no question that the overall experience is very luxurious and that it is the ideal way to circumvent some of the more onerous government regulation, that makes visiting the citadel of Machu Picchu so complicated.

CX F MXP 4 - REVIEW - Cathay Pacific : First Class - B777 - Milan (MXP) to Hong Kong (HKG)
REVIEW – Cathay Pacific : First Class – B777 – Milan (MXP) to Hong Kong (HKG)
I was really hoping that neither cost cutting at the airline nor the fact that I was not flying from a major global hub, would have a negative impact on this flight. You shouldn't have to worry about whether or not you'll have a good experience in a First Class cabin but on Etihad or BA for example, this is always at the back of your mind.

QR F A380 LHR-33
REVIEW – Qatar Airways : First Class – A380 – Doha (DOH) to London (LHR)
Overall this flight firmly cemented to me the fact that Qatar First Class is a complete waste of time. Qatar's CEO famously declared that with Q Suites he was offering “First Class at a Business Class fare”. I'd say that in many ways it is actually better than First Class... at least where his airline is concerned.

REVIEW – Patina Maldives
It seems like the entire resort has been designed for instagram first and foremost with almost no consideration for the user experience...

Trisara - main pool
REVIEW – Trisara (Phuket, Thailand)
Trisara offers the only private beach and only Michelin * restaurant in Phuket and even the entry level rooms feature sunset facing infinity pools...

Four Seasons Landaa Giraavaru - beach
REVIEW – Four Seasons Landaa Giraavaru Maldives
If you want a truly pristine island experience, enjoying all the natural wonders for which the Maldives is so justly famed, then few places will match the overall quality of experience at Four Seasons Landaa Giraavaru.
