Cambodia with Insider Journeys - September 2016
|
 |
What did you love?
Learning about the history and what the Cambodian people have overcome in only a few years, and how passionate they are about their culture!
The food - I have not tasted a Amok that I didn’t like! Each restaurant has their own way of making it with either fish or chicken.
And not so much?
Need to get back to you on that... I can’t think of a thing at the moment.
Tip for the destination?
When going to the Temples and Museums, please remember to cover your shoulders and knees as a sign of respect. You actually won’t be allowed in if you're not dressed appropriately. Also you must go to Angkor Wat for the Sunrise - the 4am wake-up call is worth it!

The food and drinks, the staff (always had a smile), and the scenery was first class.
And not so much?
The size of the cabin - trust me go for the Platinum service. There is more room so you should get a good night sleep!

Drink plenty of water! Definitely need it with the hot and humid weather. |

The cabins are very generous in size. The crew were so friendly - always smiling.
And not so much?

Southern France River Cruise with Scenic - May 2016
|
 |
What did you love?
The villages and towns visited are so beautiful, and made so accessible by the river cruises.
And not so much?
I am hard pressed to find a negative here! Keep in mind that you are on a river, so water levels can change quickly and therefore your itinerary can change - but I say “Just go with the flow”.
Tip for the destination?
Try the electric bikes - great fun way to get around some of the little villages. |
Wellington with Singapore Airlines - September 2016
|
 |
What did you love?
Singapore Airlines inaugural flight direct from Canberra to Wellington
And not so much?
Nothing bad to say - NOTHING! So excited to have direct flights and with such a wonderful airline.
Tip for the destination?
Wellington is a great little city. If you are a foodie then you will love this place. A visit to Te Papa and Weta are a must. |
Tahiti - November 2016
|
 |
What did you love?
Swimming with the sharks and sting rays.
And not so much?
Eating at the resorts can get a bit expensive.
Tip for the destination?
