Paris

Few cities match the iconic status that Paris holds in the imagination of travellers. In fashion, gastronomy, and the arts, she is queen. As you wander through the different quartiers of the City of Light, her moods shift from gritty to sophisticated, from haute couture to underground. There is always something new to discover here beyond the legendary sights and museums. Paris has a way of getting under your skin, feeling instantly familiar as you lose yourself in her hypnotic streets and linger at her cafés.

Trivandrum

Kerala’s first city, with its knotty official name of Thiruvananthapuram (often substituted by the shorter, more manageable Trivandrum), is a rich introduction to southern India's urban and cultural life. Trivandrum tends to be unjustly overlooked en route to the state's beachside settlements but easily warrants a few days of its own.

Algiers

The troubled history of Algiers is manifested in its cityscape, architecture and culture. The capital (and the largest city) of Algeria holds impressive monuments and curious surprises for visitors. French and Islamic influences exist next to each other and make it a place as diverse as its people. Visit richly coloured mosques, discover sights and ruins of days gone by, and taste the spicy and delicious food of northern Africa.

Riviera Maya

Few places on Earth inspire awe like the Riviera Maya. What makes this destination special is the privileged location on Mexico's Caribbean coast, where turquoise waters blend with silky white sands, lush jungles, and breathtaking Mayan ruins, where ancient pyramids and stone temples whisper tales from centuries past. Whether diving into coral reefs, swimming in mystical cenotes, or strolling through chic beach towns, the Riviera Maya offers an enchanting mix of history, adventure, and natural beauty.

San Antonio, Texas

San Antonio, home to the iconic Alamo and the famous River Walk, is a city where culture, history, and modern charm collide. Discover its rich heritage, vibrant food scene, unique architecture, and exciting attractions—from award-winning theme parks to world-class shopping and cultural events.

Trieste

As the poet Umberto Saba wrote: “Trieste has an unsociable grace. Located between the sea and the mountains of Carso, beautiful and fascinating, she does not like to show off, although she conquers her visitor at first sight.” Tergeste, as Trieste was named during the Roman era, is to be discovered on foot, to fully taste her richness and to breathe, through her streets, buildings and monuments, her 2000-year-old history.

Pafos

Steeped in Greek mythology and kissed by Aphrodite's charm, Pafos offers more than just clear blue waters and mild temperatures. Here, history and natural beauty coalesce in a landscape uniquely Cypriot. Situated in the Greek South, Pafos is a living testament to the island's multi-faceted personality: from its array of ancient ruins to its proximity to the untouched Akamas Peninsula, where dramatic bays and gorges await. Embark on an adventure that beckons amidst a complex, yet entrancing, backdrop shaped by the island's Greek and Turkish influences.
