“Arrive at Fushimi Inari before seven”
We climbed the torii gates at dawn and had the mountain almost to ourselves. By ten the paths were packed. Kyoto rewards early risers more than any city I've visited.

“Excellent business suite, slow boarding”
The suite door and the bedding made a 13-hour flight feel short. Boarding in Dubai was disorganised, but the crew made up for it.

“A rooftop sunset I'll never forget”
Staff remembered our names from day one. The rooftop dinner looking over the harbour was the highlight of our honeymoon.

“Take the cable car early, hike down”
Table Mountain clouds roll in fast. Go up first thing, then walk down Platteklip Gorge. Pair it with a day in Stellenbosch.

“Best carbonara in Trastevere”
Book ahead and ask for a table outside. The carbonara is textbook; the tiramisu is enormous.

“Aegean islands at an easy pace”
Smaller ship meant we docked where bigger ones couldn't. Excursions were well organised; food was good rather than great.
