Seychelles uncovered


ACTION STATIONS: OMAN


The Musandam Peninsula is dotted with many diving sites including Zazurat Simi, which includes a plane wreck. Or try Fahal Island, 4km from Muscat. omanacademy.com


Romantic and mysterious, the Seychelles is a destination which is synonymous with holidays and especially honeymoons but how much do you really know about it? Interactive dine and train roadshow, Seychelles Discovered, is now in its 5th year and aims to help agents get to know more about this Indian Ocean idyll. The show is organised by Destination Representation and brings the very best of the Seychelles to the UK, allowing agents to meet representatives from the tourist offi ce, airlines and hotels of the Islands in a


relaxed but informative training environment with food and drinks, networking opportunities and practical presentations.


The evenings will take place on March 10, 11 and 12 in St Albans (Thistle Hotel), Southampton (Dolphin Inn) and Exeter (Mecure Hotel) respectively. They start at 6pm and end by 10pm. So what are you waiting


for? A great night out and improved sales! To request places at Seychelles Discovered, agents should email events@ destination-representation.com. seychellessuperstar.co.uk

NAMIBIA'S national dish is hard to pin down since there are so many different tribal groups. The country shares many dishes with neighbouring South Africa – like biltong boerewors (sausages) and braais (barbeques). More interesting dishes include crispy fried mopane worms (actually caterpillars).
