Travel Counsellors offers holiday packages to the best loved cities in the world.
What are you in the mood for? Is it a cruise along the Thames, followed by a hit
play or musical in London’s West End, completed by cocktails at the Ritz? Perhaps
you’d like to see Madame Butterfly in Paris’ famous opera house, before going to
a jazz club in the Latin Quarter? If you have the urge to shop for bargains and
luxurious designer goods, book a holiday to Hong Kong, a vibrant city that blends
new and old traditions. If you need to energize yourself, head to Bangkok, a bustling
city that has a spiritual core, not to mention world-class resorts, spas, markets
and dining.
Consider a destination that has style and sophistication. If you’d like to surround
yourself in luxury, Dubai is the place to be. Its hotels are legendary for design,
service and pure opulence. And shopping malls are designed both for sightseeing
tourists and serious shoppers alike. Meanwhile, Sydney has a sophistication that
is accessible to all budgets, whether you’re dancing the night away at a popular
club harbour side, or exploring the markets for locally designed fashions.
When you’re craving something more exotic and different, head to travel spots that
are emerging as top city destinations. Rio de Janeiro has a unique kind of liveliness
that you can feel on the streets, and at the beach. Locals and visitors mingle together
as they tap their toes and move their bodies to Latin beats, and leisurely sip cups
of espresso at a busy café, while you people watch and soak up the atmosphere. Beijing
too is now on the world’s tourism radar. As home to the 2008 summer Olympics, it
has boosted the quality and quantity of its offerings for visitors, making it a
city that is ripe for discovery.
Good To Know...
One study showed that the risk of heart disease goes down by as much as 30 per cent
for those who take annual holidays. Researchers feel that a reduction in stress
during holidays is responsible for the positive health benefits.

Mauritius - Le Pirogue - Sugar Beach - Le Touessro
Friday 6th June 2003

Travel Counsellor: Clare Bugden
Mauritius the island of magic, fun in the sun and relaxation. The really great thing about Mauritius is that it is only a 4 hour flight from Johannesburg. When you get to the airport you are welcomed by the locals who love their country and have a true sense of what the word hospitality means. Singing, dancing and making you feel welcome.
The journey across the island from the east to the west is only about an hour. The first hotel we stayed at was Le Pirogue. The resort is set amongst landscaped gardens and beautiful Frangipani Trees. It has the most spectacular pool area that looks out over the ocean with a restaurant overlooking the majestic blue seas. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. I also loved the hammocks that are placed near the rooms and over ooking the sea. The main entertainment area is large and spacious and offers a buffet of food at all meal times.
Sugar Beach is the hotel directly next door to Le Pirogue. It seemed just a touch more classy than Le Pirogue.... view full story
