125 Travel Super-Agents
They’re the ultimate travel experts – the super-agents who can tell you the subtle differences between Amandari and Amankila, who know whether this is a better time to go on safari in Tanzania or Botswana, who can set up a private viewing of the Terracotta Army with a single phone call. For T+L’s annual A-list, we’ve once again identified the country’s top travel agents, and on the following pages listed them according to their area of expertise. This year we’ve also added a range of new specialities (from Ecuador to educational trips), exclusive survey results, and personal recommendations from each agent – including eight experiences of a lifetime you won’t want to miss. So, whether you’re looking for someone to help you plan an upcoming trip, or just ideas for where to go next, read on: it’s all here.

Top Tip: “Dunhuang, an oasis town along the Silk Road – see the ancient murals in the nearby Mogao Caves (one of China’s least well known sites) and early portions of the Great Wall. Or, ride a camel in the Mingsha sand dunes.”
