Orcaella ORC
Hottest emergent travel destination? Myanmar (formerly known as Burma) is now the trendy “go-to” land of spirituality, with its rich, vibrant culture on full display. A great way to experience it? Orient-Express has launched its new river cruiser, Orcaella (‘Or-kay-la’). This intimate ship of only 25 cabins sails along both the Ayeyarwady and Chindwin Rivers. The craft’s small size (200 feet) and floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors give guests a glimpse and perfect view of otherwise hard-to-access, remote destinations.
Napa Wine
Calling all enophiles! This event will definitely be your cup of tea – or glass of wine. Check out the third annual Flavor! Napa Valley’s star powered festival held from Nov. 20-24. Along with seminars, sommeliers, and samplings (yes, there will be wine!), celebrations abound. Robert Mondavi’s 100th birthday tribute, Chandon’s 40th, and Louis Martini’s 80th are just a few. And for you true foodies who already know this region is famous – earning 12 Michelin stars this year. Expect the latest innovations to be demonstrated along with workshops by culinary celebs including Todd English, Roy Choi and Masaharu Morimoto.
