Located in the Piedmont region of Italy, Turin is a much sought-after tourist resort that lures visitors with a distinct old-world charm and sophistication. It is a city that is blessed with grand boulevards, churches, palaces, museums and art galleries.

On a Turin tour, travellers can explore Mole Antonelliana- a towering synagogue; discover the unique collection of automobiles in Museo dell’Automobile; admire rarest Egyptian artefacts at the Egyptian Museum or visit the Cathedral of Saint John the Baptist, which houses the famous Shroud of Turin. Quadrilatero Romano- an old Roman town that brims with a wide range of restaurants offering an entire spectrum of culinary experiences is a must-visit. Porta Palazzo Market is one of the biggest and best places to go shopping here, offering unique ethnic artwork, handicrafts and local foodstuff. With its delightful variety of cultural offerings and attractions, exploring this city can be an unforgettable experience.

Situated in the Caribbean Sea, the islands of Antigua and Barbuda constitute a distinct tropical destination with natural and historical attractions. Dry, cool and humid, hot are the only two seasons in the island cluster. Antigua has a mountainous terrain with several beaches. Shirley Heights is a hiking hotspot with a viewpoint and restaurant at its summit offering gorgeous views of the surrounding waters. Some trekking trails can be found at Galleon Beach on the southernmost tip of Antigua near English Harbour. Galleon Beach also offers a few snorkelling spots. Scooter snorkelling is a popular activity here. Half Moon Bay, an idyllic beach on the southeastern part of Antigua, can only be reached through a winding trek. Another unique attraction towards the eastern shores is Devil’s Bridge, which is also the confluence of the Atlantic Ocean and Caribbean Sea. Apart from natural wonders, Nelson’s Dockyard in Antigua is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, with restaurants and shopping centres. Barbuda is smaller than Antigua. Frigate Bird Sanctuary in the lagoon of Wa-Omoni Beach Park is a birdwatcher’s paradise. On the same island, Barbuda Caves featuring Darby Cave and Dark Cave are other natural wonders that should not be missed. Barbuda is also famed for its pink-sand beach that stretches almost 13 km.
