Another little snippet from Ian's recent visit to Bassins des Lumières in Bordeaux.
How amazing does this look!
Have you added a visit to Bassins des Lumières to your 'must do' list for your next trip to Europe yet!?
At almost 50 meters tall and 45 meter wide, the Arc de Triomphe is not only one of the most famous monuments in Paris but it's also one of the world’s tallest triumphal arches. You will need to climb 284 steep steps to reach the terrace at the top, but we promise you that the panoramic views across the whole of Paris are worth it!!
HOT TIP: Your photos of Paris from the top of the Arc de Triomphe will be even better than those taken from the top of the Eifel Tower! Why? Because when you're standing at the top of the Eifel Tower the views across the city are missing the MOST iconic part of the skyline - The Eifel Tower itself! What even is the Paris skyline without the Eifel Tower!?
For some, visiting the Angkor Archaeological Park is the reason Cambodia is on their travel bucket list. We get it, wandering through the world-famous temples of Angkor really is a special experience! Comparative to the Pyramids of Giza and Machu Picchu, there is no wonder it is often found at the top of the "Places to Visit Before You Die" lists!
Spanning across approximately 400 km2, Angkor contains the remains of the different capitals of the Khmer Empire dating from the 9th to the 15th century. Included among scores of Temples are the famous Temples of Angkor Wat, Angkor Thom and the Bayon Temple. The area is also filled with countless sculptural decorations, hydraulic structures (basins, dykes, reservoirs, canals) as well as communication routes.
Angkor Archaeological Park is considered one of the most important archaeological sites in South-East Asia. There is so much to see and learn about this UNESCO World Heritage site and we would always recommend exploring with a knowledgeable local guide, so you can truly make the most of your time there.

It is often said that travel in the 21st century has become too generic and that it has become difficult to find unique travel experiences, even at the luxury end of the market. Well, we're pleased to report that sailing aboard the 4 masted, square rigged, sailing yacht ‘Sea Cloud’ is certainly something out of the ordinary!
