GAR Nov15 00 Cover Colours Choosen.indd 1 Welcome to Colours And just like that we’re coming to the end of the year. Is it just us, or does it feel like we were just getting started with 2015? This month we’d like to help you get ahead of your holiday plans with a handful of Christmas destination ideas so you can take the time to really savour the rest of the year. First up is Manado – while most visitors immediately bypass the city for island adventures off the coast, we take the time to explore the city’s overlooked and underrated charms. For a traditional European Christmas experience, we fly to Amsterdam, which has plenty of seasonal spirit and fewer crowds in winter, making December a fine time to enjoy the laid-back lifestyle of this city of canals. From Garuda Indonesia’s European hub in Amsterdam we catch connecting flights to a trio of Germanic cities brimming with holiday cheer: Düsseldorf, Frankfurt and Munich. Back home in Indonesia we shed our winter coats and break out the sunblock on Cubadak Island, a private island getaway with immaculate paradisiacal surrounds that have earned the area an alluring nickname: the ‘Raja Ampat’ of Sumatra. Tak terasa tahun 2015 akan segera berakhir. Rasanya seperti baru kemarin tahun berganti. Pada edisi ini, kami akan membantu Anda merencanakan liburan di hari Natal dengan menyuguhkan sejumlah destinasi yang semarak dengan suasana Natal-nya sehingga liburan akhir tahun Anda benar-benar berkesan. Manado adalah destinasi pertama kami, di mana para wisatawan berekreasi alam di pesisir Manado. Kami pun mencoba menjelajahi tiap sudut kota dengan pesonanya yang kadang terlewatkan ini. Bagi Anda yang ingin menikmati liburan Natal khas masyarakat Eropa, kami mengajak Anda terbang ke Amsterdam. Kota dengan nuansa liburan namun tak terlalu dipenuhi wisatawan di musim dingin, telah menjadikan Desember waktu terbaik untuk menikmati gaya hidup nan santai di Kota Kanal ini. Dari hub Garuda Indonesia di Eropa, kami pun mengambil pesawat berikutnya untuk menuju tiga kota di Jerman yang memiliki nuansa liburan: Düsseldorf, Frankfurt, dan Munich. Sementara di negeri sendiri, kami menikmati dinginnya udara dan nuansa alam di Pulau Cubadak, Raja Ampatnya Sumatera. 94 Travel Hub Amsterdam Get in the seasonal spirit.
