A Wonderful Safari in Zambia

I was fortunate recently to spend four nights on safari in Zambia, in the pristine splendour of the Lower Zambezi Valley. It’s an area I know well, and I was returning to a lodge I had fallen in love with some years previously. However the lodge had been recently taken over and completely upgraded into what I can now rank as one of the finest lodges I’ve ever experienced. My business is in tourism so I have travelled quite a lot in Africa and have been privileged to have a taste of some of the best accommodation on offer.

White Water Rafting in Nepal

Grab a slice of the action and take a white water holiday in Nepal. Nepal is home to some of the worlds best rafting and kayaking rivers for all levels of rafter. For me, initially springing to mind when I think of white water is automatically New Zealand or Canada, two countries generating hype for having some of the most ferocious and spectacular rivers in the world. It never crossed my mind that Nepal could offer amazing adrenaline pumping white water to warrant being rated along with some of the worlds finest.

Beat The Winter Blues With Winter Sunshine Holidays In Malta

The trees have lost their leaves, it’s raining, the rare winter sunshine has to fight through grey skies and you’ve well and truly got the winter blues. Life doesn’t have to be dreary I’ve found – not when I can take winter holidays in Malta. Malta is a small archipelago in the Mediterranean Sea, close to Sicily and only 15 miles in length. Small in size but big in character, the Maltese Islands of Malta and Gozo are great places to visit all year round.

Celebrate At Singapore Festivals

For me there is a lot more to a holiday than just lying on a beach frying myself. I love to learn about different cultures and join in with local festivals whenever I travel and Singapore gives you plenty of choices to do just that. In this article you will learn more about the colourful Singapore festivals. Despite its stoic buildings and busy streets, Singapore makes a point of celebrating its diversity in ethnicity, race, religion and culture. If you flip through history books of Singapore, you will probably see old photos of the river banks filled with people from all walks of life.

Start Scotland Tours With ‘Glasge’ Attractions

The city of Glasgow is the largest city in Scotland, the third largest in the UK and a great place to start your Scotland tours. Glasgow offers something for everyone from fun at the Glasgow Comedy festival to the arts at Kings theatre Glasgow. Luckily for Glasgow most of the main attractions are located around the subway circuit. There is always something to see within easy reach of the city centre. Because the city has many hidden secrets around every corner, not all of them are as obvious on the top of a tour bus and are best seen on foot.
