ed ’ s letter from the editor-in-chief ...
Prepare to embark on unforgettable journeys of romance and discovery .
Welcome to the reimagined Summer / Autumn issue of Holidays for Couples . After 25 years of producing this magazine in print , I ’ m delighted to be part of the team that worked tirelessly to bring you our third digital issue . And what an issue ! From local escapes to exotic odysseys , it ’ s packed with couple-approved getaways — including a romantic stroll around Kyoto ’ s temples , and a culturally immersive trip through India ’ s Golden Triangle .
It ’ s around this time of year that many of us start hatching plans to turn our holiday or honeymoon dreams into reality . So , if you ’ re ready for the next great escape , flick to p . 10 for our pick of the 24 global honeymoon locations to bookmark for 2024 and beyond .
Keeping it local ? Try our 24 only-in-Australia experiences ideal for road-tripping or sparking that much-needed short break ( p . 60 ).
We ’ re also tempting you with an epic African adventure in Namibia , a siren call to those seeking safari adventures , wildlife encounters and remote romance . Ginny Cumming journeys through one of Africa ’ s least populated and most extraordinary destinations on p . 50 .
And finally , if you were captivated by our front cover image ( yes !), you need to put the Mediterranean on your travel radar . Join our Editor , Natalie Bannister , on her voyage from Turkey to Greece aboard one of the world ’ s best boutique luxury cruise lines — you can read all about her incredible Aegean love story on p . 36 .
