TRAVEL TRENDS IN 2009

Posted on 2009-01-19

Cheer up folks, it’s not all doom and gloom – despite the big CC, signs are that travel is one of the last things we’re willing to scratch off the list. This year it’s all about being a little more discerning in our choices – whether that means learning a new skill on an ‘educational’ adventure with an expert, or seeking out a more personalised ‘concierge’ style service to weed out the tourist traps and get straight to the heart of the local culture.

Here are Black Tomato’s top 5 trips on the horizon in 2009

1) Hike the mysterious Black Cat trail in Papua New Guinea
2) Florence through the lens, with our expert local photographer
