EP 44 Shikoku Island in Japan, Accessible travel & Eating Hong Kong
Manage episode 420965397 series 3573714
‘It’s already authentic, it’s not made for the tourist, everything is there like it has been for hundreds of years, Sanjib Raj Khanal, CEO of Explore Japan.
Sanjib is a leading tour operator in West Japan, and talks about why Shikoku, Japan’s fourth largest island – with its tranquil Iya Valley, ancient rope swings and famed ramen – offers an authentic cultural experience, and why going regional in Japan rewards curious travellers.

We also talk accessible travel - Australians with disabilities spend $8 billion annually on tourism services, taking more than 20% of all day trips. We share some of Australia’s best accessible tourism experiences, such as the Three Sisters walk in the Blue Mountains and Quicksilver’s water-powered lift to snorkel the Great Barrier Reef. For more, see australia.com/en/facts-and-planning/getting-around/accessible-travel-in-australia.html or visit Travel Without Limits, Australia’s only disability specific magazine, travelwithoutlimits.com.au
Finally, MasterChef judge Melissa Leong shares her tips for eating in Hong Kong. Mix fine dining with a market street walk – take a foodie tour through Central and Sheung Wan, or a seafood lunch and walk on Lamma Island, she says. And for fine dining, Melissa plumps for the Michelin-starred Man Wah restaurant, on top of the Mandarin Oriental - while you’re there, nip into the Aubrey, currently #17 on the Asia’s 50 Best Bars list.
