Okinawa
Known as the “Hawaii of Japan”, this southern collection of islands is a
true subtropical paradise with sparkling beaches, kaleidoscopic coral
reefs, and fantastic diving opportunities. Although not the venue for the
surfing events at the Olympics (those were held at Tsurigasaki Beach,
roughly 100km away from Tokyo), visiting surfers will be pleased to
know that you can use your board year-round in Okinawa.
Additionally, Okinawa is where the country’s first cherry blossoms of
the season appear, and it is also the birthplace of karate. This is the ideal
spot for an end-of-holiday treat, especially now that a number of new
hotels and eco-resorts have opened.
Other new openings include the DMM Kariyushi Aquarium in Okinawa.
Located in the Okinawa Toyosaki Mall in Tomigusuku, just 20 minutes’
drive south of Naha Airport, it combines real-life animal encounters
with immersive art installations and cutting-edge projection
technology.
Hokkaido
Japan’s northernmost island, Hokkaido, hosted the race walking and
marathon events for the Olympics. This unspoiled corner of Japan is
dotted with volcanic lakes and national parks, and enjoys a rich
indigenous culture. The National Ainu Museum opened here in July
2020, exploring the history and culture of the indigenous Ainu people.
In Hokkaido is Unkai Terrace, an observation deck centered around
enjoying the unkai (sea of clouds). A gondola takes visitors up to an
elevation of 1,088m to the main observation deck, which has reopened
with an extended platform that extends even further from the
mountain. Other viewing platforms include the Cloud Pool, the Cloud
Bed and the Cloud Walk.
The other reason to travel to Hokkaido is for its world class powder:
Sapporo in Hokkaido hosted the Winter Olympics in 1972 and the area
enjoys some of Japan’s best skiing.

Georgia
Serious oenophiles will know that Georgia is the oldest
wine making country in the world. The tiny Caucasian
nation has been turning grapes into wine for at least 8,000
years. But, despite its long history, the Georgian wine
industry has only recently started to make waves globally.
Traditional Georgian vinification uses a method not seen
anywhere else in the world. Wine is placed in beeswax-
lined clay vessels called Qvevri and buried underground to
age and ferment. This vessel - the name literally means
“buried in the ground” - is central to traditional
winemaking in Georgia. The oldest Qvevri discovered
dates back to 6000 BCE. These traditional wines come in a
variety of styles, but it is the amber wines produced from
white grapes fermented with their skins, and sometimes
even their stems, that are the most well-known.
If you're wondering where to start your Georgian wine
journey then Kakheti, a two-hour drive from the capital
Tbilisi, is the country’s foremost wine region with 4,250
square miles of vineyards. Wineries to consider include
the family-run Twins Old Cellar, with its wine museum and
the largest Qvevri in the world, as well as Ruisipiri
Biodynamic Vineyard,run by a Swiss-trained vigneron.
If you have time to spare, then explore the Wine Route,
which was established a couple of years ago by the
Tourism Agency to help promote Georgia’s resurging wine
industry.
Croatia
Located off the coast of Drače on the Pelješac peninsula
(about 45 minutes from the capital Dubrovnik) is Edivo
Vina, one of the most unusual wineries in the world. At
Edivo Vina, wine isn’t aged in oak barrels or steel casks.
Instead, wine is placed in a clay jug and aged 20 metres
below the ocean.
Ten years ago, a 200 year-old shipwreck was discovered
at the bottom of the Baltic Sea between Sweden and
Finland. On board were nearly 200 sealed bottles of
Veuve Clicquot that had been produced between 1839
and 1841. When the divers tasted it they discovered that
not only was it drinkable, but it was very tasty, too.
This led wine producers Ivo Segovic and Edi Bajurin to
place bottles of red wine below the sea surface to see
what would happen. The result is Edivo Vina, the country’s
first underwater winery. Wine bottles are aged above
ground for three months before being placed in an
amphorae, a clay jug with two handles and a narrow neck,
below the water for between one and two years at a depth
of between 18-25 metres. The conditions underwater -
total darkness and a constant temperature - are thought
to aid the ageing process.
Visitors with a diving license can join certified guides on a
tour of the underwater winery which houses the Navis
Mysterium line of wines. Of course, if you’d rather stay on
dry land then there’s an above ground winery too.
Tasmania
The first sparkling wine ever produced in Australia was in
1826 and came from Tasmania. Despite this early success,
however, wine production in Tasmania (or Tassie as it’s
more commonly known among Aussies) largely
disappeared, as the climate in Australia's most southern
state was deemed too cold for wine grapes.
All that changed, however, when some ‘have a go’
European vintners arrived in Tasmania in the 1950s and
successfully produced wine. Today the state is home to
over 230 individual vineyards, 185 licensed wine
producers, and 95 cellar doors. What’s more, Tassie has a
reputation for producing some of the best cool-climate
wines in the world.
As well as its moderate maritime climate, Tasmania has the
most varied soils of any region in Australia and its
mountains form a barrier to the wine regions, protecting
the grapes from high winds and rainfall.
Today, the state produces a wide range of wine styles but
is best known for its sparkling wines and Chardonnay. Try
the award-winning Dawson & James for the latter. Tassie’s
Pinot Noirs are also first class; Stargazer and Tolpuddle
are wineries well worth visiting.

Pico, the Azores
Tourism in the Azores is booming and so is their wine
production. Of this group of nine volcanic islands in the
middle of the Atlantic, there are three that produce wine:
Graciosa, Terceira and Pico. Of these, only one has been
nicknamed the “Island of Wine”.
Pico is tiny, less than 48km (30 miles) in length and you
can drive around the entire island in just three hours. But
this small dot in the ocean, 1,000 miles west of mainland
Europe, has been producing wine for centuries.
The vines that grow on Pico are nothing to write home
about, but it's the way that they are cultivated that is so
remarkable. Rather than neat rows of pretty trellises,
vintners have adapted to the rough basalt island terrain
and vines are grown along the surface of volcanic rock.
Dry stone walls, known as currals, were built to protect
the vineyards from the strong Atlantic winds and ocean
surges crisscross the landscape. From above, they look like
the remains of an ancient civilization. Today, over 2,400
acres of these vineyards are protected by UNESCO World
Heritage.
Currently, some 17 varieties of grape are grown on Pico
and white wines are where the Portuguese island really
excels. Start your journey with the Frei Gigante and Ferias
Vineyards that produce taut mineral dry whites that taste
of the sea.
There are no direct flights to Pico from mainland Portugal.
Wine enthusiasts must fly first to the island of São Jorge
and from there fly to Pico. Atlântico Line ferries run daily
during the summer months from nearby islands of Faial
and São Jorge.
Thailand
Once upon a time heat and humidity were a big viticulture
no-no, but not anymore. Thailand is proving that a tropical
climate is no barrier to producing very good wine. There
are six wine producers in the Kingdom of Thailand, the
biggest of which is Siam Winery. Here, experts have found
a novel way to cultivate vineyards in a country where the
weather is hot and moist year-round.
At their winery on the Chao Phraya Delta, 60kms from the
capital Bangkok, are floating vineyards. Technically the
vines aren’t suspended in mid-air but they certainly look
that way, particularly after a tipple or two. This is not some
kind of magic viticulture, however; rather a clever way of
growing wine in the tropics. In countries like Chile and
Argentina, canals are built to irrigate or allow water in, but
in Thailand the 10,000-acre vineyard has been
constructed with deep canals to allow water out. Wooden
canoes then navigate the canals at harvest time.
The Siam Winery can be easily visited on a day trip from
Bangkok and guided tours are available. See hotels

AIRPLANE MODE ON: OUR FAVORITE
DESTINATIONS FOR A DIGITAL DETOX
Despite spending so much time on our own these last 18 months, we have never been more digitally
connected. Our dependence on technology for work, school and entertainment (not to mention keeping
in touch with friends and family) has skyrocketed with so much time at home and, unsurprisingly, it's
becoming increasingly difficult to switch off from the digital world.
Given our dependence on electronic devices, it's no wonder that travelers are starting to crave time away
from their screens. Even in pre-pandemic times, the idea of a digital detox holiday was gaining in
popularity. Now that we can travel again, this trend for an off-the-grid escape only looks set to grow.
Of course, a digital detox vacation doesn’t have to mean that you have to break up with your phone
forever. An unplugged adventure can be as simple as consciously taking time to focus on what’s in front of
you rather than documenting it all on Instagram.
In our digitally dominated lives, real-world experiences through travel are more important than they have
ever been. If you’re looking to recharge your own batteries, the following destinations can help you to
reboot.
Hotels and resorts are tapping into the trend and offering digital detox packages.
‘POWER OFF’
packages
Guests are encouraged to power off and be present, and non-digital activities are
offered instead – everything from yoga and spa treatments to board games and
jigsaw puzzles. Some offer fitness and wellness regimes; others promise perks such
as snorkeling or a discount on a night’s stay in exchange for giving up your phone for a
few hours. At the more extreme end are silent retreats with zero access to digital
devices.
Tour operators are also catching on with a handful offering bespoke off-the-grid
travel experiences to unplugged destinations. Some of these packages include a ‘de-
tech’ guide and sessions with a life coach.
Finland
Leave your worries behind in Finland, which has been
named the happiest country in the world for four
consecutive years. There are lots of reasons why this
Nordic nation is so cheerful and one of them is thought to
be down to a particularly unusual national pastime: ice
swimming.
Cold water swimming saw a huge surge in popularity over
the last 18 months: with swimming pools closed, people
were not only seeking alternative ways to exercise, but
were also looking for a way to immerse themselves in the
pure, unadulterated joy of being out in nature. The Finns,
however, cottoned on long ago that immersing yourself

48 HOURS
IN VEGAS
Las Vegas is a playground of neon lights and card tables, like a glitzy Disneyworld for adults that never
closes. It’s loud, fast-paced and unashamedly decadent. It’s also ridiculously good fun. But, contrary to
popular belief, there is more to Sin City than slot machines. This strip in the desert is home to excellent
museums, inspiring art and lots of opportunities to step into the Great Outdoors. Don’t believe us?
Here’s how to enjoy the best of Vegas in 48 hours.
See the sun rise
Whether you’re still up from the night before or just
hoping to make the most of your time in Vegas, nothing
beats seeing the sun rise in the Valley of Fire State Park.
Located less than an hour from The Strip, this is Nevada’s
oldest and largest state park. The pre-dawn light is the
ideal time to appreciate the striking red sandstone
outcrops and 3,000 year-old Indian petroglyphs. Closer to
town is Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area,
home to striking red rock hills, dramatic canyons and a
variety of hiking trails.
Fuel up
You’re spoiled for choice when it comes to dining in Vegas,
but there are a handful of places where you should
definitely make a reservation. For a truly surreal Vegas
experience, head to Evel Pie, a wacky pizza joint dedicated
to motorbike stuntman Evel Knievel. Be a daredevil and
order the rattlesnake sausage pizza topping.
The Bacchanal Buffet at Caesars Palace is the crown jewel
of the Vegas buffet scene, an over-the-top 25,000-square-
foot, 600-seat restaurant with nine open and interactive
kitchens. Pile up your plate with everything from birthday
cake pancakes and truffle mushroom egg bites to smoked
brisket and huevos divorciados.
Vegas institution The Peppermill will feed hungry
customers at any time of day. Their 24-hour
diner, featuring velvet booths and oozing Vegas glamour,
serves pancakes, waffles and hearty plates of eggs cooked
to order. At the back is the Fireside Lounge - make sure to
try their signature Scorpion cocktail.
Fly high
Get a bird’s eye view of The Strip on a helicopter ride over
Sin City and the surrounding Mojave Desert. Helicopter
flights soar above the iconic Hoover Dam and Lake Mead,
and into the Grand Canyon, one of the Seven Natural
Wonders of the World, before returning to the bright
lights of Vegas.
Take a spin
It’s cocktail time, and what better way to enjoy a pre-
dinner drink than from up high? At 158m (520ft), the
aptly-named High Roller is the tallest observation wheel in
the world. Book a ride in the glass cabins that come with
an open bar and enjoy the glittery Strip with a cocktail in
hand.
Vegas, baby
At least one night in Vegas should be spent in a theatre.
Las Vegas is home to some of the best over-the-top circus
acts around, including five shows by Cirque du Soleil.
Another unmissable show comes courtesy of the dancing
fountains at The Bellagio, possibly the most popular
attraction on the Strip. More than 1,200 fountains sit
within an 8.5-acre lake and dance to music every 15
minutes throughout the evening until midnight.

What’s your favorite thing to do in the place where you live? Any local
inside tips?
I live in the Black Country and we have some amazing museums, parks, culture,
and history. The Black Country Museum is where Peaky Blinders was filmed
(they also do the best chips!) and the views from the Clent Hills are stunning.
Tell us a cool secret about the Black Country that doesn't usually
appear in the brochures.
You have to try orange chips. These are usually only available on a Monday and
Tuesday from the chippy. The batter is seasoned and that makes them slightly
orange in colour, but they are amazing.

Madeira
LIKE A LOCAL
Madeira’s year-round mild climate has long made it a popular destination for winter sun seekers. As
well as tropical weather, this Portuguese island is blessed with beautiful landscapes, delicious seafood
and, of course, wine. This winning combination means that Madeira can get very busy but if you’re
willing to leave the capital of Funchal behind then it’s more than possible to escape the crowds. Here’s
how to enjoy the best of Madeira like a local.
Get around like a local
If you’re a confident driver, then do like the locals do and
drive. Hiring a car is easy and gives you the freedom to
explore the “Island of Eternal Spring” at leisure. The
wiggly, winding roads are very steep in places, so you’ll
want a compact car and consider an automatic - unless
you’re a fan of hill starts!

gardens welcome picnicking families when the sun shines
and children eager to meet Father Christmas during
December when the gardens transform into a winter
wonderland.

Street food in Bangkok
Bangkok is legendary for its food. The Thai capital has hundreds of thousands of street food vendors
dishing up everything from a quick bowl of noodle soup to a Michelin-starred crab omelet. Most of the
street carts specialize in one or two extraordinarily tasty dishes based on recipes that have been
passed down through generations. Street food is deliciously cheap in Bangkok and can be found
throughout the city, meaning you will never go hungry. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, then consider a
food tour to help you find the best street-food spots that the city has to offer.

What is the one thing people shouldn’t miss when visiting Phuket?
There are two activities in particular that I recommend. The first is enjoying our
beaches; we have lots of beaches where you can sunbathe, enjoy sea views, and
go swimming, snorkelling and diving. The other activity that I recommend is
eating local southern Thai food and seafood.
Nowadays, café hopping is very popular in Phuket and there are lots of places
to choose from. Ma Doo Bua Phuket is a café and restaurant popular with the
