With a strong culinary focus, highlights include an insight into native ingredients in Melbourne led by chef, entrepreneur and author Nornie Bero ( November 27th, 2024 ; January 7th, 8th ; February 5th, 2025 ); garden foraging and lunch with chef Tom Tilbury at the Adelaide Botanical Gardens (November 29th, 2024; February 8th & 9th, 2025); and a guided wine experience and lunch at Napier’s award-winning familyrun winery Craggy Range (December 17th, 2024; January 19th, 25th & 26th, 2025). The season will also see gastronomic shore excursions in Japan, including a culinary workshop and lunch at a zen retreat and a visit to a farm on Awaji Island for an insight into Japan’s farm-to-table culinary culture. Silver Nova will return to Asia-Pacific in September 2025.

With just 52 sublime guest rooms and suites by designer Yukio Hashimoto, the hotel also features a Banyan Tree Spa and two distinctive dining venues, while guests can experience the centuries - old traditions of Noh theatre, enjoy a private kōdō ceremony at the tranquil Sennyū - ji Temple, or soak in the resort’s traditional onsens.

To mark this anniversary celebration, the Department of Tourism will hold a six-month campaign, culminating on December 17, in honour of Bhutan’s National Day. This day holds great cultural significance for Bhutan, and the celebration is a perfect opportunity for travellers to immerse themselves in the country’s unique heritage.

Bhutan’s positioning as a destination has always been unique, with its strong focus on high-value, low-volume tourism designed to ensure only positive impacts on the Himalayan kingdom’s rich culture. The country’s Sustainable Development Fee, introduced to all visitors in 2004, ensures that visitors to the nation appreciate and contribute to the preservation of Bhutan’s pristine landscapes and ancient traditions while also ensuring the people of the Kingdom benefit from international visitors.

The programme has been a resounding success as postpandemic tourist arrivals continue to rise, with revenue from the scheme used for carbon offsetting and to nurture the next generation of Bhutanese. At the same time new luxury lodges, including andBeyond Punakha River Lodge, Zhiwa Ling Heritage and Pemako Punakha, cater to a new generation of luxury travellers to the remote Kingdom.

隨着後疫情時代，遊客到訪不丹的數量不斷上升，計劃取得了

What was your most recent trip? 您最近去過哪裏旅行?

I’m in Paris right now as my new project with chef Jesus Duron, DUÉ, is in residency for three weeks. I’m technically working, but it’s an incredible experience. Being able to collaborate in Paris’ rich culinary scene is so inspiring. 我現正在巴黎，將會停留3星期，與 Chef Jesus Duron 合作及準備全新餐飲 項目「DUÉ」。嚴格來說這是工作，但同時也是一段難忘的經歷，能夠在巴黎 豐富的美食文化中合作，絕對是意義非凡。

What kind of traveller are you? 您是一位怎樣的旅客?

Work takes me lots of places, but I love going somewhere blindly, where I have no idea what I’m walking into. I also used to over-pack and over-schedule, but I’ve chilled out on that. I’m making efforts to be more present. 工作令我經常出國，但我很喜歡盲目地前往一個完全不了解的地方。過去的我 會過度準備及計劃行程，但現在的我比較放鬆，努力讓自己更加沉浸其中。

What are your favourite destinations? 您最喜愛的旅行地點是?

For me, travel is as much about reconnecting with friends and family as it is about exploring. I love New York because I used to live there and still have friends in the city, and Alberta [Canada] because my family is there. I also love Mexico City – it’s so vibrant – and Shanghai because it’s different every time. 對我而言，旅行不僅是為了探索，也是為了與朋友和家人重聚。我熱愛紐約， 因為我曾在那裏生活過，當地亦有不少朋友；也喜歡加拿大的阿爾伯塔，因為 我的家人正在那兒。我也很喜歡無時無刻充滿活力的墨西哥城；還有上海，每 次去都有不同感受。

Departing the garish but irresistible attractions of Abu Dhabi and Dubai brought us to the charms of Muscat, the capital of Oman, where tourism is a recent but fast-growing industry. Boasting stunning scenery and enchanting culture with an ultra-friendly and sparse population, Oman is arguably the most attractive Middle East location for vacationers in search of variety.

Crossing over to India, we landed in Mumbai to join a city tour taking in the Gate of India, a Krishna Temple, a couple of museums and the amazing Dhobi Ghat, an open-air laundry with more than 700 hand-washing stations.

Moving down the coast to Goa took us to churches, a market and a visit to a traditional residence for tea and snacks. On a tour of Mangaluru, we encountered another market and temple whereas our stay in Kochi featured a small boat cruise on inland backwaters to a village specialising in traditional crafts such as ropemaking and rolling bidis – cigarettes wrapped in dried leaves.

Leaving India behind, we arrived in Male in the Maldives, affording the opportunity to visit one of the many over-water resorts that are characteristic of the country, as well as strolling around the town’s compact lanes and seafront. In the Seychelles, we enjoyed a taxi ride around scenic Praslin Island, visiting palmfringed beaches and the rugged, jungle-covered interior, which encompasses Vallée de Mai Nature Reserve and the trees of the legendary Coco de Mer, the world’s largest seed.

The next stop was Africa, specifically Mombasa in Kenya. A walk around town, taking in Fort Jesus followed by a local tuk-tuk ride into the maze-like old town market, where we shopped for handicrafts and enjoyed a serendipitous encounter with a musical event on the riverside.

Zanzibar, Tanzania and in particular, Stonetown, epitomises the fusion of Arabic and African history and culture, with its narrow streets, roof-top restaurants and slave market. Navigating the Mozambique Channel between Madagascar and Mozambique took us to the surprising island of Mayotte, which was once part of the Comoros but elected to remain French following independence. It is now the outermost region of the European Union. Hiring a taxi to tour the island took us to where wild lemurs occasionally come down from the trees.
