RED MANGROVE LODGES- Galapagos Islands

Ah, the Galapagos Islands - fresh, captivating, and never short on surprises. This is perhaps one of the last remaining places on Earth where everything is as nature intended and discoveries are waiting to be found at every turn. About 175 years ago, poor Charles Darwin had no other option but to explore the islands by boat as there was no place to lay his weary head...fast forward to today, where amateur explorers from far and wide now have another option besides the standard cruise. Our Galapagos discovery is Red Mangrove Lodges, the only brand in the Galapagos featuring lodges on many of the islands, thus offering a multitude of land activities and completely eliminating the "disembark/slowboat/ground tour/back on slowboat/reboard ship" routine that always leaves you feeling as though you may have missed out on something when time on land runs out. Fear not, these lodges are about as eco-friendly as a lodge can get, never interfering with the natural state of affairs on these beautiful islands.

Packages at Red Mangrove Lodges generally include:
- Transfers IN / OUT to/from Baltra or San Cristobal Airport
- Welcome drink
- Accommodation at Aventura, Floreana and Isabela Lodges / San Cristobal
- All meals included on a fixed menu basis
- Snacks / Navigations
- Excursions with English speaking Naturalist guide
- Use of bikes in Isabela and Aventua Lodge
- Internet service in Isabela and Aventura

More time on land means more time to discover...and explore.

NEPTUNE OYSTER HOUSE- North End- Boston, MA

OK...a restaurant review in Boston probably wasn't what you were expecting to see in today's issue but seriously, we can not keep quiet about our favorite little gem in Beantown any longer. Tucked in a tiny storefront space on a crowded street in the heart of Boston's North End amongst a plethora of Italian restaurants, shops, and bakeries- it stands out from the get-go and feels much more bistro-on-the-Left-Bank rather than the typical raw bar. Mirrored walls with slick white liquid chalk-drawn menus, beautiful selection of wines, flashy countertops and just a cluster of tables for the lucky ones who arrive early enough.

On to the most important part, the LOBSTER ROLL. Not just any lobster roll, but quite possibly THE most perfect lobster roll. One we dream about, one we crave when we've had a bad day, one we admittedly have flown up to Boston just to enjoy, only to turn around the next day and fly home. Yes- it's that good. And there are 2 versions- naturally you have to have them both but we'd say space it out- one for lunch and then one for dinner if you intend to pair this with a cup of their amazing chowder. The hot version resplendent with dripping gooey melted butter is especially sumptuous. Seriously and truly, please- please do not miss this next time you're in the area. NB-it's difficult to find, and forget about finding a parking spot so you're better off taking a cab or the T.

OUR NATIVE VILLAGE SOUL SPA & ECO RESORT- Bangalore, India

Nowadays, so many hotels tend to utilize the word "green" as frequently as any other commonly-found descriptive in a brochure. We found a spot that completely puts their money where their mouth is, proudly featuring an absolutely 100% eco friendly resort. How do they do this, you may say? We're glad you asked, we found this so interesting that we wanted to share it with you:

1. Electricity- It's almost all self-generated by wind and solar panels, stored in batteries that are connected to the resort. 2 bio-gas plants on property use a blend of cakes and food waste to produce a fuel that can be used in the kitchen. Genius.

2. Water- rainwater, harvested from the roofs, is the only H2O you'll find around here. Pure and natural.

3. Construction- All structures were created with materials found on site- a little soil, some sun-baked handmade bricks and voila...

4. Zero Waste Policy- all waste generated is processed, recycled and reused. Composted paper is used for bonfires, food waste gets used in the bio gas plant, kitchen water is even used for gardening. Fantastic.

5. Organic food- Most of the vegetables are grown organically, and locally. Fresh.

6. Innovations- Their swimming pool is entirely chemical free, hot water is heated via solar panels, herbal & medicinal plants are grown onsite and used in the kitchen and spa...tremendous.

have for you and finally releasing yourself from them.

As if these weren't cool enough selling points, check out the hotel's Soul Spa, delivering restorative Ayurvedic treatments, musical massages, breathing treatments and more designed to reconnect your body to your soul.

India's a true journey in itself, and it's properties like these dotted along the way that make the advenutre all the more awe-inspiring. Check it out- http://www.ournativevillage.com/

CA' SAGREDO HOTEL, VENICE, ITALY

In a city as splendid and divinely romantic as Venice, staying in just a hotel doesn't seem right. Taking up temporary residence in a PALACE, well...that sounds more appropriate and we must confess the Ca' Sagredo Hotel's seductive spirit has won us over. This former regal residence is a 15th century Palazzo set on the Grand Canal, resplendent with works of art from the most famous Venetian painters of centuries past, carefully restored to it's natural noble state which somehow mixes effortlessly with the bold modern touches of luxury. Each of the 42 magnificent rooms maintain the feel of ancient Venetian splendor and offer possibly the most striking views of the shimmering water below, yet all feature their own unique feel. Venice is all about over-indulgence- the art, the culture, the food, and the passion for life and this stunning property truly embodies this spirit. To wind down the day in Venice, losing yourself in the most amazing sunsets whilst sipping a Bellini pretty much ranks up there as one of the most beautiful feelings in life, and there's no better spot for this than the Ca' Sagredo.

Guests aboard the train are spoiled from the time of arrival in the exclusive departure lounges in either Pretoria or Cape Town, where they're met with a libation and introduction to their personal butler who will be looking after them for the duration of their stay aboard.

Best of all, each suite has it's own marble bathroom- no queuing in the corridor to brush your teeth at night as is the case with some others (we won't name names!). Feeling peckish? Not to worry, the train is equipped with a team of traveling chefs that produce gourmet meals morning, noon and night...and beyond. The staff is tremendously hospitable and truly makes you feel like royalty. Best of all, the overnight journey easily fits in to almost any South Africa itinerary.

AMATHUS HOTELS- Cyprus

Sauntered through Santorini or mingled in Mykonos already? If you couldn't get enough of the Mediterranean island lifestyle and are longing to return, we say - try Cyprus.

CASTLEMARTYR- Cork, Ireland

There's something about spending a holiday in a manor house, especially whilst in Ireland. It always carries with it a regal air of grandeur, and Castlemartyr is one of the finest examples of the magnificence from centures past. Naturally, it's got everything you would come to expect of such an estate- luxurious rooms and suites fit for the most discerning of guests, carefully designed menus using local fresh ingredients at it's restaurant, rolling emerald grounds that seem endless, and 24,000 square feet of pampering bliss within their Spa. However, what we find most charming are the simpler things, the opportunities to partake in traditional activities from long ago that make you really feel as though you've taken a true step back in time. Archery, fly casting, skeet shooting, Vane and Quiver, or even Nock to name a few (relax, we didn'tknow what Nock was either but that's the fun of it all!). Or, perhaps even embark on a walk wtih the 2 resident Irish Setters, apropriately named Earl & Countess of course, through the trails surrounding the property. There's even a telescope for gazing at the celesital skies. It's a most peaceful retreat and well worth a stop for a few nights' rest when traveling through the countryside.

EXPLORATEUR EXCLUSIVE- 25% off golf and spa services when booking directly with the property. Email gerrit@dromoland.ie and tell 'em The Explorateur sent you!
