World Class

On this World Class trip, we visit the country that gave us navigation - Portugal. On the south of the country is the Algarve with clear waters and sandstone cliffs that make this coastline truly stunning. Golden sandy beaches and a lunch on a private yacht feature in this show along with lots of culture about the region and a brief visit to one of the famous potteries.

This time we take the train from Bangkok in Thailand, through Malaysia to Singapore, but this is no ordinary train... Well of course not! It's the Eastern Orient-Express with en-suite air-conditioned cabins and some of the best food in Asia. Also featured in this packed episode is the Peninsular Hotel in Bangkok and the Fullerton in Singapore.

This time on World Class we are in the wonderful Spanish city of Barcelona, an architectural delight, with real European style. Feast on the very best of the work of Gaudi, take a stroll through the Gothic old town and visit one of the best fresh produce markets in Europe. All this, as we stay in the ultra-modern topsy-turvy ME Hotel.

If you're looking for an alternative to sun, sea, and sand then the urban city of Berlin is the perfect travel destination for you! In this episode of World Class, we transport you back in time, sip hand-picked tea leaves and meet a very famous polar bear! This cosmopolitan capital is jammed packed with culture, art, and politics and will be a definite luxury hot spot for any traveler.

Goa in Southern India is a region rich with wildlife, stunning beaches and of course spicy food. Here the team looks at the incredible wildlife and beaches of this former Portuguese Colony that's perhaps better known for the hippy trail than its luxury hotels. But 'World Class' sets the record straight by featuring two of the best hotels in the region... The Intercontinental and the Taj Exotica.

Jamaica is 145 miles long and 50 miles wide and so offers plenty to see and do. In this programme, we cover the YS Falls in St Elizabeth, a trip to a rum factory, the famous croc infested Black River and head for sundowners at the famous Ricks Cafe. This time we stay in the Breezes Grand Resort & Spa  (formerly Grand Lido) on Bloody Bay.
