Andrew Harper editor video highlights from this issue

COASTAL DRAMA

Thailand became known as a top leisure travel destination decades ago, but its allure is undiminished, as evidenced by a certain recent television series. We love the complex food, the friendly people, the rich culture and the stupendous landscapes. The latest surge of interest in Thailand gave us a perfect excuse to return, and our efforts were rewarded: We discovered our highest-rated resort in the country yet. Closer to home, we’ve long had our eye on Uncruise’s unique Baja California expedition voyage, and we finally had a chance to review it, along with hotels in La Paz and the Costa Palmas development. Plus, we round up some of the latest feedback Andrew Harper members have sent to us.
