Here's a river cruise with a difference from Bales Worldwide - eight nights sailing down the Rajang River in Sarawak, Borneo, in the footsteps of British explorer Redmond O'Hanlon.
The Into Borneo Expedition Cruise, on the 30-cabin Orient Pandaw, will take you through the region's rainforest with the chance to go jungle trekking and exploring up the Kanowit River on a long boat.
You'll visit a traditional long house, where the Iban tribes live, a rattan workshop, deer farm, pepper plantation and the Brooke Raj Fort Emma, built by the Brooke family, who ruled Sarawak for 100 years. It is now part of Eastern Malaysia.
The cruise is new to Bales this summer and costs from £1,765 per person for departures in July and August, including flights, accommodation, full board on the cruise, English-speaking guides and a full sightseeing programme. Call 0845 057 0600 for more information

I agree, Barcelona is very beautiful. One of the most notable features of Barcelona is the city’s great architectural richness, a characteristic that is the result of the succession of the peoples who have inhabited the city during many hundreds of years, and is manifested in an urban structure. Barcelona is today a very popular destination. So popular that it is getting really hard to find Barcelona hotels to stay during official vacations or international fairs. But because of such boom, a lot of Barcelona hotels have been built and they offer comfort, quality and great value for the money, ideal for leisure and business travelers.
