This week’s broadcast of the Peter Greenberg Worldwide Radio Show comes from The One&Only Cape Town Resort, and the Virtuoso Symposium in Cape Town, South Africa. Located on the Victoria and Albert waterfront with commanding views of Table Mountain and Lion’s Head, the One and Only Cape Town is considered to be one of the most luxurious hotels in South Africa. Virtuoso is the leading luxury travel network, including more than 380 agencies and 11,400 advisers. This week, CEO Matthew Upchurch drops by to discuss the trend of travel as an optimized experience, and the shifting focus of people wanting to accumulate experiences and memories as opposed to more things. President and CEO of Crystal Cruises Edie Rodriguez talks about the growing cruise industry and Crystal’s interest in the SS United States—and possible plans for the future. Luvo Ntezo, the One and Only’s head sommelier, shares a little bit of his vast knowledge about South Africa’s vineyards and wine regions.
