As the national April 17, 2016 carrier, South African Airways is honored to be chosen as the offi cial airline for the Symposium. We extend to you a warm welcome to Cape Town and thank you Dear Virtuosos, for your support. Welcome to Cape Town! How appropriate that we meet for our 36th annual Virtuoso Symposium in the Mother City, a destination known for its cultural diversity, warmth, and sense of community. When I first talked about communities last August at Virtuoso Travel Week, I quoted Simon Sinek’s definition: “A group who agrees to grow together.” In effect, we’re the 2016 Symposium community who are here to forge stronger bonds through shared travel experiences, so please take a moment to join me in thanking our Symposium sponsor partners who play such an integral role in how we’ll experience South Africa together. They’re all featured in the pages that follow. The Virtuoso Events team and our Cape Town hosts have really outdone themselves with spectacular venues and personal touches topped with a myriad of Design Your Day activities to fully immerse your- self in South Africa. Whether wine lands or peninsula, sidecar ride or city walk, philanthropic or retail therapy, we’ve got you covered. Of course, we have you covered on the business side of Symposium as well. We’ll hear from three com- pelling speakers: Eric McNulty – Director of Research, Harvard’s National Preparedness Leadership Ini- tiative, Dave Pavelko – Partnerships Director, Travel – Google Inc., and David Scowsill – President and CEO, World Travel & Tourism Council.

  • Umaid 20Bhawan 20Palace 2
    Rajasthan, the land embellished with infinite imprints of colour and chivalry, harmonious life and lingering music, harmony and hospitality, palaces and pristine nature; has been extending an invigorating invitation to the world, since time immemorial. 2 UMAID BHAWAN PALACE, JODHPUR JODHPUR, RAJASTHAN Hyderabad 3 UMAID BHAWAN PALACE, JODHPUR Maharaja Umaid Singh Ji (8th July,1903 - 9th June,1947) He was the successor of Maharaja Sumer Singh in 1918. The Young prince was educated first at Rajkumar College in Rajkot, and then at Mayo College in Ajmer. In 1921, he married Badan Kanwar, daughter of Thakur Jai Singh Bhati of Osian. An Avid flyer who was bestowed the title air marshal, it was his resent less efforts that made JFC Air Force Station the gateway to far east by 1938. In 1924, he established the Jodhpur aerodrome. In 1931 he founded the Jodhpur Flying Club. In 1929, he laid the foundation stone for his “Chittar Palace”, later to be known as Umaid Bhawan Palace. 4 UMAID BHAWAN PALACE, JODHPUR Inspiration Angkor Wat Temples Taj Mahal 5 UMAID BHAWAN PALACE, JODHPUR Foundation 6 UMAID BHAWAN PALACE, JODHPUR Art Deco Influence 7 UMAID BHAWAN PALACE, JODHPUR Built between 1929 and 1943, Umaid Bhawan Palace is a magnificent piece of Rajasthan’s heritage, and a symbol of new Jodhpur. Home of the erstwhile Jodhpur royal family and currently the world’s sixth-largest private residence, the palace has one thing in common with the iconic Taj Mahal at Agra—the palm court marble used in its construction. Perched on Chittar Hill, the highest point in Jodhpur, Umaid Bhawan Palace inspires with exotic views of the historical Blue City, vast sand dunes, and intimidating Mehrangarh Fort.
