The sociable manager, Matthew Siegel, beckons me from a packed bar out onto the street and down to a quiet doorway some meters yonder.

...booking engines. Within the site, each destination page is run by a local tour operator with firsthand knowledge. In the case of Limassol, Cyprus, for example, the father-and-son team of Tommys and George offers not just hotel tips but restaurant suggestions and car-hire advice. Discovering hitherto obscure accommodation can also be a real joy. In Luang Prabang, Laos, the booking service run by expat and tourism consultant Lee Sheridan lists, among others, the charming Le Tam Tam Garden Guesthouse, owned by the avuncular Nouanta Sayyabouasi and offering rooms from $15 a night.
