What remains of the ancient ruins, after the plundering and destruction by the conquistadors, will leave you in awe of just how advanced this civilisation was. Machu Picchu No holiday to Peru would really be complete without a visit to Machu Picchu. It is considered to be the most stunning and impressive of all the ancient Inca ruins.

Phuket has become such an indelible part of tourism in Southeast Asia, let alone Thailand, that not even a tsunami can stop it. Yes, the primetime holiday spot was hit hard by the infamous Indian Ocean megathrust earthquake of 2004 but, happily and despite the odds, has made a swift recovery. This is not a purely anecdotal bit of speculation either. The numbers tell the story – and they are truly impressive. To wit, for the past five years roughly 3.5 million visitors, on average, have come to Phuket. That makes Thailand’s largest island a top 30 global holiday destination.

Decent accommodation then, is not a problem. And, clearly, neither is the climate, so long as it veers tropical and not tropical monsoon. How about where to score a choice stretch of beach? Please. Easy peasy in Phuket. No, the one dominant question that plagues many Phuket-trippers is, simply, this: Where to find a good, authentic meal? Well look no further. This handy list underscores some of the gems of […]
