view&id=310&Itemid=1&lang=en> Kerala: Exotic Spice Garden of Southern India:
17th to 28th Jan 2013

foreground
<https://www.traveleyes-international.com/images/stories/KeralaFishingNets.j
pg> We warmly invite you to join us as we set out to explore the
astonishingly beautiful Southern Indian region of Kerala. Our voyage of
discovery will take us down India's exotic South-west coast, through lush,
fragrant tea and spice plantations, to explore one of the most diverse and
enchanting landscapes on the whole Indian sub-continent. We visit the
historic city of Cochin, the fascinating Periyar wildlife sanctuary, vast,
exotic spice fields and the traditional fishing village of Kumarakom, before
embarking on an overnight houseboat cruise through Kerala's timeless
backwaters, en-route to a paradise of incomparable beaches at Kovalam. So
here's the perfect chance to savour a truly memorable blend of the
delicious, the fragrant and the extraordinary. Beautiful Kerala... India at
its most magnificent!

view&id=315&Itemid=1&lang=en> Tenerife: Nature's Favourite Island in the
Sun:
1st to 8th Feb 2013

in the foreground.
<https://www.traveleyes-international.com/images/stories/Holidays/Tenerife.j
pg> With all-year-round sunshine and a superb 350km coastline which
encompasses stunning beaches of dark volcanic sand, historic settlements and
nature at its most beguiling, Tenerife provides the perfect winter escape to
sunshine splendour. Our resort, Costa Adeje, is set against the breathtaking
backdrop of Mount Teide, Spain's tallest peak, and is a perfect mix of
peaceful tranquillity, natural beauty and modern convenience. Utterly
beautiful Tenerife...at your fingertips.... with Traveleyes.
<https://www.traveleyes-international.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=
view&id=268&Itemid=1&lang=en> Vietnam: Asia's Hidden Treasure:
1st to 16th March 2013
Ha Long Bay with green mountains and small red fishing boats.
<https://www.traveleyes-international.com/images/stories/vietnamha-longbay.j
pg> When an ancient land with countless natural treasures and a welcoming
spirit endures conflict at the hands of history, the true measure of that
land is to be found in the resilience of its people and in the miracle of
nature's ability to transform the desert of strife into a paradise of peace.
Such is the miracle that is Vietnam. Once the world wept for Vietnam, but
now it stands open-armed in welcome. There could be no more heartening
demonstration that gentleness and beauty can emerge from the depths of
discord than this wonderful South East Asian peninsula whose recent history
spells out the word 'hope' for the rest of the world.

<https://www.traveleyes-international.com/images/stories/saxophonist.jpg>
Traveleyes invites you to take the musical 'road trip' of a lifetime with a
chance to explore the towns and cities, the heritage, and the charm of this,
the landscape...... which taught the world to sing! Join us for an
unforgettable journey through America's musical heartland to explore the
Deep South, a magical land where the astonishing creativity of African
Americans and European Americans alike turned the hardships, poverty and
prejudice of the 19th and 20th centuries into possibly the most influential
blossoming of musical culture the world has yet seen. We explore the roots
of the blues, jazz, rock and roll, country music, gospel and the multitude
of musical genres in between, all of which brought about the evolution of
western popular music as the world knows it today. This exciting holiday
includes a guided tour of Atlanta, a chance to visit the largest aquarium in
the world, a visit to the home of Tennessee's Jack Daniel's Whiskey
Distillery, and an encounter with the enchanting Creole culture of New
Orleans. This many-sided taste of unmistakeable southern hospitality
includes two days in Nashville, where music stores, recording studios, and
venues both large and small line every street, confirming that the
institution of Country music remains stronger than ever today. With many
planned tours and excursions plus days left free for leisure and individual
exploration, this is a Traveleyes experience that's not to be missed.

> On this great Traveleyes Canada experience we focus upon the Eastern side
of the vast landmass, to visit cosmopolitan cities and endless expanses of
nature alike, brought together in a package which is simply brimming with
sights, sounds, history, colourful stories and countless delights. Montreal
welcomes you with its warm ambience, historic charm and fine cuisine, and
yet is ready to contrast all of this with a nightlife in which every minute
is lived to the full. Quebec awaits you, rich in French colonial treasures
and remarkable architecture, as Grand Chateaux tower high above and narrow,
cobbled alleyways invite exploration to the sound of old church bells
ringing out a friendly 'Bonjour!'. We enjoy the lakeside pleasures of
Kingston, Ontario, with its picturesque waterfront surrounded by hills and
nearby multitude of islands. At Niagara Falls you'll experience the
thunderous roar as millions of litres of water plummet spectacularly into a
foaming natural gorge. Here is your opportunity to join us as we gasp,
marvel and luxuriate in the diversity of experience that is... Canada!

makes it an unforgettable holiday destination at any time of the year,
thanks to its wonderfully mild climate and unmistakable ambience. Here you
will find an intoxicating mixture of rolling hills, deep valleys, olive
groves, vineyards, and hillsides lined with lemon and orange trees. From our
base in the heart of Sorrento, we visit the enchanting island of Capri and
the fascinating ruined city of Pompeii. As part of the central Traveleyes
quest to experience the real Italy, we offer you many options, including the
chance to try your hand at cooking... the Italian way!

The stunning, sunlit beauty of this fascinating cultural crossroads has
captured hearts for centuries. Cape Town is splendidly located where the
warm, blue Indian Ocean meets the mighty South Atlantic, where the skies are
high and the unique landscape pulses with the unmistakable rhythmic, tribal
beat that is Africa. This wonderful city boasts a multitude of leisure
activities, ranging from outdoor pursuits and adventures in the sun, to the
roaring night-life under the kaleidoscopic canopy of flashing neon which is
urban Africa at its most sparkling and entertaining. Towering Table
Mountain, fabulous, seemingly endless beaches, lively and stylish café
culture and a delightful many-faceted cuisine all combine into the thriving
tapestry that has shaped this land of Nelson Mandela, a magical land of
music, dance, cultural diversity and hard-won freedom. Cape Town welcomes
all visitors warmly, indeed many find it hard to leave its charms behind
when it's time to return home!

We have many beautiful memories from previous holidays to Cape Town, and
here's just a taste of what some of our Traveleyes customers had to say
about their holidays with us to the fabulous Cape:
Maureen
I have just returned from a wonderful trip to South Africa organised by
Traveleyes. I enjoyed every minute of Cape Town. This truly was a great
trip, all thanks to Amar and the Traveleyes team!
Anne & Ken
This was a very enjoyable and successful holiday, well run by Traveleyes who
obviously had done their homework well to make everything run so smoothly
and as a true mark of a well run holiday, nothing appeared to be too much
for them no matter how big or small it was.

Exciting News for Vision Impaired Restaurant Diners!
Traveleyes founder and director Amar Latif has been personally involved in
developing the first revolutionary mobile phone app which will make menus in
a whole network of restaurants fully accessible for blind and visually
impaired people. The app, known as 'Guide' is designed for use with the
Apple iPhone, and will soon after also be available for use with Android
devices. The 'Guide' app uses GPS to locate the user and either suggests
nearby restaurants and, once the user is already inside a particular venue,
it instantly presents that specific restaurant's menu in audio format, all
ready to browse.
Would you like to take part in the development of this revolutionary
innovative project?
We are currently seeking volunteers to input a diversity of restaurant menus
into the 'Guide' app. If you are interested in volunteering for this, please
reply to this email with 'Guide App input' in the subject line of the email.
We would love to hear from you!
We are also seeking volunteers who would like to be part of the user testing
team in this development and so again, if you are interested, please reply
to this email with 'Guide App User' in the subject line of the email.
Let's change the world together...... Traveleyes..... the 'Guide' app......
and YOU!
We very much look forward to welcoming you on-board any one of our wonderful
new Traveleyes holiday vacations, sometime very soon, so do give us a call
any time. When it comes to quality-first, multi-sensory world travel
experiences, Traveleyes is here for you!
