In Cusco, June through September is prime time: th In Cusco, June through September is prime time: the Inca Trail is at its best, the 15th-century ruins of #Sacsayhuamán look spectacular under winter light, and June brings Inti Raymi – the Festival of the Sun (24th June) – spilling across the city's plazas in a celebration of street fairs, rituals and parades that has to be witnessed to be believed. @peru #IntiRaymi⁠
⁠
And then there are the slower pleasures: San Blas neighbourhood in the morning, San Pedro Market for the full sensory hit of everyday Peruvian life, and colonial courtyards made for sipping pisco sours late into the evening. Peru's world-class food culture – ceviche, chicharrón, anticuchos, lomo saltado – fills in any gaps, as well as your rumbling stomach.⁠

📍Kuching, Borneo, Malaysia⁠
🗓️26-28 June 2026⁠

In an inspired twist on the ubiquitous cultural fair concept, world and folk music echoes throughout the mystical jungles of Kuching in Sarawak as performers from across the globe converge with instruments as old and enduring as music itself – from Sarawakian lutes and Syrian ouds to West African koras and Australian didgeridoos.⁠
⁠
Borneo isn't exactly around the corner – but those who make the journey to this three-day jam fest (@rwmf.official) are richly rewarded.⁠

Most travellers who make it to Canada's west coast Most travellers who make it to Canada's west coast stop at Vancouver Island and consider the job done. Haida Gwaii rewards those who go further.⁠
⁠
This remote archipelago of some 200 islands off the northern BC coast is where old-growth temperate rainforest teems with bears and bald eagles, and the sea offers a breathtaking counterpoint to all that lush greenery. The cultural draw is equally powerful: Haida Gwaii is the ancestral home of the Haida Nation, whose remarkable indigenous renaissance has given the world – among other treasures – the Unesco-listed village of SGang Gwaay, its standing totem poles keeping watch over centuries of ancestral memory. ⁠
⁠
A little extra effort and a permit for the national park reserve stand between you and one of the most quietly extraordinary places on Earth.⁠

With over 18 hours of daylight during the "white nights" of June and July, Latvia's capital glows – and so do its cafe terraces, filled with locals lingering over natural wines and modern Baltic cuisine.⁠

The Unesco-listed Old Town of Vecrīga, a bustling central market and a full block of Art Nouveau façades – best admired at golden hour, when the light does them full justice – are the essential stops. The rest, you discover on foot.⁠

Given the concentration of oceanfront hotels in th Given the concentration of oceanfront hotels in the Algarve, the opening of the Viceroy at Ombria Algarve resort (@viceroyombriaalgarve) has allowed serenity-seeking holidaymakers to venture inland to unwind and avoid the crowds.⁠
⁠
North of Loulé and far from the sea, the hotel’s design mimics the vibe of a local village with a cluster of gleaming white buildings nestled into the hillside.⁠
⁠
There are 141 rooms divided into 20 categories, with some featuring private pools, jacuzzis and kitchenettes. For those in need of exercise beyond the pool, an 18-hole golf course awaits. 🏌🏻‍♀️⁠
