Continuing our theme of “small-ship cruising”, we have an offer that is almost too good to be true.

Keep an eye on these columns!
Graham has been travelling all his life and is always seeking something special and unusual.
By sailing ship – Bali, Komodo Dragons, smouldering volcanoes, emerald rice terraces July, August and September 40% Off
The islands of east of Bali.
Cruise to uninhabited islands – exploration - beach BBQ’s - dormant volcano’s with crater lakes - amazing underwater life - komodo dragons - a pink sand beach - a waterfall in a hidden island paradise - sailing on board a sleek, classic design Mega Yacht as she spreads her white sails through the seas.
This cruise opportunity is a one off.
The islands east of Bali rival or exceed anything seen in Bali or Java. Each island has its own peculiar sights. Great stone-slab tombs, intricate ikat weaving, brilliantly coloured lakes, beautiful red dragonflies, colourful birds. Indeed some of the finest attractions in South East Asia.
Only about 4% of Indonesia’s population live in this island paradise and there are so many different languages and cultures that it’s impossible to regard the people as one group.
The wildlife encountered in this part of Indonesia is different from that found in western Indonesia. This is a transition zone between Asian and Australian flora and fauna. The 300m deep channel that runs between Lombok and Bali marks the Wallace Line, a faunal boundary line drawn in 1859 by the British naturalist Alfred Russell Wallace.
Join this ultimate 3 masted motor sailer cruiser with a maximum of only 49 guests.
With classic lines, spacious decks and wood panelled lounges this is what yachting was meant to be.
The special /% discount offered by Jebsen Holidays makes this an offer almost too good to be true!

Written by GRAHAM
Having lived and worked in Asia for 40 years, I have travelled extensively to off- the- beaten-track locations in Asia. I like to think of myself as your man on the ground in Asia.
My passion is for the less travelled, more remote and interesting locations, which many simply bypass. It is the local culture, architecture and heritage in which I am most interested.
I always wanted to be a Travel Consultant. My favorite geography teacher sparked my interest at a very early age.
My very first job was with the world’s oldest travel company, Thos. Cook & Son. I joined them in 1962 in Melbourne, Australia.
Later, I founded my own travel agency, Concorde Travel in Hong Kong, from 1978 until 2016. We have now merged with one of Hong Kong’s oldest and most prestigious companies, the Jebsen Group, founded in 1895. This allows me to devote more time to my favorite pastime, Travel Consulting.
I have a special interest in smaller and more adventurous cruise ships. These enable you to escape the crowds and visit often unexplored and truly pristine destinations. I have been intrigued that the Virtuoso map will not let me include some of the more exotic places I have visited. These are spectacular destinations, but one or two of them might require a bullet proof vest these days:
Abidjan (Ivory Coast), Djibouti (Republic of Djibouti), Koror (Palau), Saint Helena (British Overseas Territory), Phu Quoc (Vietnam), Aden (Yemen), Turpan and Macau (Peoples Republic of China) and Port Lockroy (United Kingdom Antarctic Heritage Trust).
In these days of mass tourism, careful planning is required to ensure that one’s exploration is an enjoyable and memorable experience.
I hope you will let me help you to find these roads less travelled. All you have to do is let me know about your own special interests.
