Our year in review - Helloworld Travel Browns Bay 2019 travel highlights:

Anne-Marie Denton: Sundowner Safari in Dubai: Dinner in the desert with a bit of an adrenalin rush at the beginning as you “bash over the sand-dunes”, then a falcon show followed by an amazing dinner under the stars in the Bedouin-style camp. Camel rides, henna tattoos, and sand-boarding (weather permitting) makes for an unforgettable experience.

Fiona Watt: Chicago totally exceeded my expectation. Although a large city, it felt compact. It is a wonderful walking city with open spaces, lovely parks with colourful plant life. There are fabulous architectural museums to visit, a lot of history dating back to the 1800s to discover, and shows and sporting games to see.

Dale Millar: Fabulous Avalon River cruise from Amsterdam to Budapest for 14 nights. The highlights were inspiring destinations and being immersed in the unforgettable culture and history of central Europe, whilst cruising in a 5-star hotel. This was a once in a lifetime experience which has left me with the most amazing memories and friendships.

Barbara Schultz:  I have to say Brazil. Catching up with family and friends, plus enjoying summer and the lively, happy South American atmosphere.
