Morocco
For Westerners, Morocco holds an immediate and enduring fascination. Though just an hour's ride on the ferry from Spain, it seems at once very far from Europe, with a culture – Islamic and deeply traditional – that is almost wholly unfamiliar. Throughout the country, despite the years of French and Spanish colonial rule and the presence of modern and cosmopolitan cities like Rab..
Cyprus
Discover a country where East meets West, fashionable spas sit side-by-side with village kafeneia and heavenly beaches are backed by rugged mountains. Cyprus is tucked away in the top right hand corner of the Mediterranean so close to Europe, Asia and Africa that it rightly claims to be a stepping stone to three continents.

Each region looks and f..

Menorca
Smaller and quieter than its neighbor Mallorca , Menorca is the second largest of the Balearic islands. Situated just 34 km / 21 miles from Mallorca , the island has many family-friendly rental resorts and almost as many beaches as Mallorca and Ibiza combined. Peaceful holiday resorts line the south coast and a string of quiet fishing villages are along the island s rougher northern shore. Th..
