BEYOND A TO B
2010-03-08We’ve been taking ourselves off on a literary voyage in the last few months with the help of our project Travel Fuel. And for all the wise words we’ve read the quote “A journey is like marriage. The certain way to be wrong is to think you control it” from a certain Mr Steinbeck got us thinking about how we love the unexpected surprises that come with taking a ‘journey’.
So, here’s a few of our favourite alternative ‘journeys’ all to be experienced in a short getaway. Each of which bring a fresh perspective and are perfect to let you explore the wonders that lie nestled between A and B.
Take Europe’s ultimate driving route, hop behind the wheel of your Ferrari (or Aston or Porsche) and burn some luxury rubber exploring the near perfect twists and turns of the Swiss and Italian Alps. Certainly not your average car journey.
Dijon: luxury wine tasting with a twist
France’s idyllic canals, a barge (no ordinary tug boat) and as much fine wine as you can handle. Meander from the Valley of the Ouche and moor up in the Cote d’Or. Sip vino in historic chateaux and discover fairytale towns along the way. Bliss.
See Venice from above and below
Want to get under the skin of Venice like no one else? Here’s a tip. Try exploring the canals by Kayak. Paddle around the city’s epic islands and stunning architecture for a totally new perspective. The perfect alternative Venetian journey? Definitely.
