Istanbul is a perfect destination for a city break or a weekend getaway, offering a unique mix of history, culture, gastronomy and stunning scenery — all at a budget-friendly price. As the only city in the world located on two continents, it combines the best of Europe and Asia, divided by the Bosphorus Strait. The historic heart of the city is on the European side, especially in Sultanahmet and Taksim, where many of the main sights and best accommodation options are located.

The city is home to several UNESCO World Heritage Sites, including iconic landmarks such as the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia and the historic city walls. The impressive Topkapi Palace, once home to the Ottoman sultans, is another must-see. Exploring the Asian side is quick and easy by metro, or you can take a scenic ferry across the Bosphorus, enjoying views of the Maiden’s Tower and the Princes’ Islands along the way. With vibrant markets, excellent food and rich cultural heritage, Istanbul is an unforgettable and affordable choice for a short city weekend.

Indian Ocean

At first glance, Mauritius feels like a Caribbean cousin. Around 1,200 miles off Africa’s east coast, the island is edged by 330 kilometres of pristine white beaches, where dolphins are often spotted offshore. The south, west and east coasts are known for standout beaches, including Belle Mare, one of the island’s longest stretches of sand, set beside a coral-protected lagoon. In the north, shallow bays like Balaclava and Calodyne are ideal for snorkelling and kite-surfing.

Rainforests and reefs

Beyond the beaches, Mauritius is rich in natural beauty. The mountainous, forested interior rises to 800 metres and is home to rare wildlife, including geckos and tropical birds in national parks such as Porte Lafayette. Surrounding the island is one of the world’s largest continuous barrier reefs, offering scuba diving that rivals the Maldives.

Kaleidoscopic culture

Over centuries, Mauritius has absorbed a mix of cultures. Creole flavours reflect links with Madagascar, with Grand Baie standing out as the island’s culinary hub. Mahebourg shows strong European influence, while its French heritage lives on in elegant chateaux like the Château de Labourdonnais in the north.
