ISTANBUL, TURKEY
With its old quarter
skyline of domes and
minarets and the
twinkling lights of the city's modern half
across the water, Istanbul is the magical
meeting place of East and West. It boasts
a wealth of religious sites, including
the spectacular Blue Mosque and the
legendary Hagia Sophia, as well as a
dynamic culinary scene, rich history and
impressive galleries. The famous Spice
Bazaar is a feast for the senses, filled with
vibrant locals and lined with colourful
and fragrant spices.

DUBLIN, IRELAND
Dublin is a city of traditions,
literature and history. It's a
city of musicians, writers and
poets whose songs and stories fill the local
pubs and cafes. It is warm and welcoming,
known for the friendliness of its people and
famous for its craic ("crack")—a mixture of
humour, intelligence, and acerbic wit. While
traces of its Viking past have been largely
washed away, Dublin is a living museum with
medieval castles and cathedrals on display
alongside the architectural splendours of its
18th-century heyday.

TORONTO, CANADA
On the northwest shore of Lake
Ontario sits bustling Toronto,
recognised as one of the most
cosmopolitan and multicultural cities in the world.
With around half of its residents born outside of
Canada, the art, culture and food offerings are
truly diverse to visitors and locals alike. A visit to
the iconic CN Tower is an absolute must. It is one
of the city's most iconic structures offering the
best views over the surrounding landscape –
best witnessed at sunset.
