In our Eighth Anniversary Edition, Dawn Gibson gives us her insider tips to navigate one of the world’s largest cities: too often used as a stepping-stone by tourists, modern CAIRO is a mesmerising melting pot and seriously worthy of a dedicated city-break. On the other side of the world, Sam Henderson visits the Micronesian island of KOSRAE in the Western Pacific, where mangroves, coral gardens and lush forests enchant her family; Emily Millett investigates a gorgeous, unspoilt alpine valley in Northern Italy, surrounding LAKE ISEO, which hasn’t yet been overrun like its bigger neighbours. And The Cultured Traveller’s editor-in-chief zip-lines into a unique BILL BENSLEY-designed resort set along the Thmor Rung River in southwest CAMBODIA, in the shadow of the Cardamom Mountains. This landmark issue also contains a NewsFlash event round-up, exclusive interviews and foodie features, plus we check-out a dozen standout new hotels and resorts around the globe.
