WELCOME
Dear fellow traveler,
Bright, carefree summer months are the ideal backdrop for travel plans. The ultimate summer luxury— time with family and friends— should be considered judiciously, and you might find just the right journey within these pages. There’ s always a stretch of coast, seasonal dish or annual festival that beckons.
In this summer issue of Postcards, we’ re pleased to feature Pól Ó Conghaile, author of Secret Dublin and Travel Editor at the Irish Independent, who gives us his guidance for visiting the Irish capital. Rebecca Barnes traces an 11-night Crystal Cruises itinerary that departs Bali and heads north along the Makassar Strait before hopping between the Philippines’ emerald islands and ending in iconic Hong Kong. And the gastronomy of the Ionian Islands of Greece comes into focus thanks to Emily Brown, who shares her favorite seafood tavernas.
Sand, sea and celebration: long dinners outdoors, building sandcastles and splashing in crystal-clear waters are the things of family lore, and our agency is here to help you make the most of it. Backed by our specialized resources, we can turn your travel dreams into reality. All you’ ll need to do is switch to airplane mode and head into endless summer. Happy travels!
