SUGGESTED ACCOMMODATION

Old Leura Dairy, Blue Mountains

Set amidst the stunningly beautiful Blue Mountains.
OLD LEURA DAIRY, BLUE MOUNTAINS

UNIQUE, FOUR STAR BOUTIQUE RESORT

Just 100 km west of Sydney lie the Blue Mountains, a staggeringly beautiful landscape even by Australian standards. And complementing the countryside is an unusual, historic hotel.

Are the Blue Mountains actually coloured blue? It’s a good question, to which the answer is definitely maybe. They certainly appear blue, thanks to the natural eucalyptus oil produced by the area’s dense gum trees. The oil hangs in the air giving the mountains a blue effect. Put the area on the itinerary of your luxury, tailor-made holiday to Australia – it’s only 100 kilometres from Sydney – and you’ll discover soaring cliffs and blue-tinged ridges broken by crashing waterfalls, plus ravines cloaked in the famous gum trees.

Not to mention the Old Dairy. As its name suggests, this wonderfully idiosyncratic hotel has been recreated from a dairy and today offers visitors a choice of accommodation from a two-sleeper studio to Straw Bale House, sleeping up to 11 adults.

“MONGOLIA STOLE MY HEART – A JOURNEY I’ll NEVER FORGET”
It was one of the best trips of my life. The itinerary you crafted for us was absolutely perfect; I wouldn’t have changed a thing. What made it even more special was the incredible team who looked after us. Edda was fantastic, and the two drivers we had for the Orkhon Valley and Gobi sections of the trip were possibly the best I’ve ever had.

“TAILORED TO PERFECTION”
Our holiday in Thailand was superb – custom-built exactly to our preferences. 91 were super attentive, listening carefully to what we wanted and designing an itinerary and hotel selection that really delivered.

“INDIA AT ITS MOST INCREDIBLE”
Unbelievably brilliant from start to finish. 91 gave us complete flexibility while tailoring the trip to our personal preferences. Communication was excellent throughout, and the in-country team in India was super-efficient at every stage. The quality of the experience was exceptional – and the value for money, remarkable. From expert naturalists to thrilling wildlife encounters (tigers, leopards, 140 species of birds), awe-inspiring temples, the Taj Mahal, scenic walks and warm, welcoming people – not to mention the fantastic curry – it was a truly superb holiday. “Ultimate” really is “91”!
