Coming up this week, scotlands most beautiful roads. Its some of the most amazing landscapes and seascapes youll see. Its around the world in 500 miles. Where to spend your Christmas Holidays and how about a cup of fish entrails . Laughs. Very strong its really chewy. Really very, very strong. The city of inverness on scotlands north east coast is the unofficial capital of the highlands. Its been a popular Tourist Destination since the arrival of the railways in the mid 19th century and, despite its rather changeable weather, the city remains the gateway to exploring the countrys mountainous north. The usual tourist trail begins here in inverness and visitors tick off the big attractions in the region, heading to loch ness, glencoe and even as far as the isle of skye, but now theres a different way to explore the highlands. The north coast 500, or nc 500 for short, is a driving route, promoted as scotlands answer to route 66. The 516 mile route begins in inverness and traces a route around the north coast through some of the wildest country in the uk. From dramatic mountains, to lochs, high passes and white sand beaches. Its of the most amazing landscapes and seascapes that youll see. In fact, some people say its around the world in 500 miles. Tom campbell was the creator of the nc 500. He envisaged it as a means of bringing visitors out the parts of the highlands previously undiscovered by tourists and to bring economic benefits to struggling communities. One of the real drivers of this was to try to make the highlands and North Highlands more sustainable and so create opportunities for investment. And businesses were closing and leaving. Now theyre staying and expanding. And it has been a success. Since the nc 500 launched in 2015, locations along the route have reported a 26 increase in visitor numbers, as keen drivers arrived from across the uk, europe and the world. While i dont have the recommended five to seven days required to see the entire north coast 500, i cant resist hitting the road and seeing part of it for myself. 0utside inverness, the landscape quickly becomes more rugged, with craggy mountains on the horizon and valleys covered in heather and gorse. There are some great stretches of road and increasingly drivers are taking to these twists and turns with rather more sophisticated wheels than i have at the moment. Hello. You must be rob and that must be your gorgeous car when the north coast 500 launched, local farmer rob saw an opportunity and now hires out his prized sports car to tourists who want to hit the highlands in a High Performance soft top. So how did you go from farming to renting out sports cars . I mean, this seems a big transition. Im a bit of a petrol head and ive always enjoyed driving and i always wanted to buy a small two seater sports car, so i decided to buy a porsche boxster, which is more modern, more of a drivers car, and hire it out when im not using it. Thats how it came about. Driving a convertible, you can see the scenery much better and the sights and sounds and smells of the countryside. Its just a really unique driving experience. So exciting very nice. Im going 60, which is the speed limit along here. But you can tell this babys got a lot more in the tank. The route takes in sections of standard highway, as well as more secluded roads, and there are plenty of opportunities for diversions. And you dontjust have to stick to the main route, you can take a ten minute detour, like i have, up to a beautiful viewpoint and the best part is theres no one here. Small businesses like robs sports car hire have sprung up along the route, but theres also been an uptake for long established ventures, such as the Shieldaig Lodge hotel in the western coastal village of gairloch. Since the nc 500 weve gone on to full all the time. From the beginning of april were full right up through to september. For locals like lisa, this has meant a whole new range of people discovering their small part of the highlands. They dont realise what a gem weve got up here and then when they drive the route and see the hidden pockets, theyre absolutely delighted. A lot of them will stay. If we didnt have the tourism, people wouldnt stay. People would leave. Young families go away, people wouldnt retire up here, it would just become a very quiet and i suppose lonely old place and we need the tourism. And two hours drive away is one of the most difficult sections of the nc 500. The Bealach Na Ba pass, or pass of the cattle, an historic drovers road, thats now a single paved track that winds up and over the applecross mountains. Its notorious for its steep gradients and sharp hairpin bends and ive chosen a particularly hairy time to attempt it. Its very atmospheric looking out. Very misty. I know theres a big mountain there but i can barely see it. In recent years, this road has become increasingly busy, with buses and motorhomes often clogging the narrow passes. This is one of the more dangerous stretches of the nc 500. Very twisty and turny. And theres every chance you can meet an oncoming camper van coming the other way, because its single lane. To add to the excitement ive got scottish weather and rain hitting us right now, so its a bit tricky to see out the windscreen. This increased traffic has caused serious concerns for residents of applecross, the small Seaside Village at the end of the pass. Applecross is known as a sanctuary, or was known as a sanctuary. I think theres a few people calling it other words now. This village now receives a barrage of visitors, putting pressure on its limited infrastructure. The conditions of the roads have deteriorated tremendously. The camping facilities, the accommodation facilities, the restaurant facilities are all very much under an awful lot of pressure. I could employ ten more people basically, here at the inn, with the new business thats come long. But is that a good thing . Because, as you say, if business is good, thats a good thing . No, i did like my little pub as it was. Were a bit of a feeding factory now, we just constantly need to man the door. The local boys would like to get a corner of the bar occasionally to have a beer. But despite some discomfort among applecross locals at the swollen visitor numbers, there is a recognition that the changes brought by the nc 500 route are likely to stay. You can have 300 people in the motel and its beautiful and that always will be, it doesnt matter how many people come here. Still to come on the travel show from amsterdam to vietnam, our travel guru fields your questions. And carmens trip takes on a fishy flavour during her mission to tackle some of japans most daunting dishes. Mmm. Very crunchy and very, very fishy. Kampai. The travel show, your essential guide, wherever youre heading. Welcome to the slice of the show that tackles your questions about getting the best out of travel. Coming up, advice on a christmas escape, and why banks in argentina are coming back into fashion. First, at the end of a summer which has seen long passport queues across europe, i can bring you details of what awaits visitors from outside the eu who dont currently need visas. The electronic travel information and authorisation system, or etias for short, will require prospective visitors to fill in an online form, similar to the us scheme, and pay 5 euros to apply. Theres no date yet for implementation, but the eu has promised there will be an initial six month spell when the etias will be optional. Of course well keep you posted on the travel show. Here is a question e mailed to the travel show for christmas 2017, i have one recommendation luxor, in egypt. For christmas 2017, i have one recommendation luxor, in egypt. As luck would have it the only scheduled flight of the week takes off on december 25th. You leave the midwinter gloom of Northern Europe behind and touch down in a warm, welcoming city halfway between london and the equator. Walking is the ideal way to explore the ruins of karnak on the edge of luxor, then take a ferry across the nile to the valley of the kings. You can easily combine luxor with the egyptian capital, cairo, thanks to the overnight train, or frequent planes between them. Just check the latest travel advice before you go. Alison is off to vietnam in november, but first, top marks for choosing to travel to vietnam in november, when the humid summer is over, leaving cool days in the north and warm sunshine in the south. The vast majority of vietnamese traders are honest and friendly and its an excellent place to sharpen your bargaining skills. Ask other tourists, particularly backpackers whove been in vietnam for a while, for guidance on appropriate price levels. And while youre negotiating, keep smiling. Its important that both parties make it a fun and engaging experience. And if youre happy with the agreed price, pay with a smile and dont give the purchase a second thought. Finally, george wants to know argentina is a wonderful country to visit. From patagonia to buenos aires, and the spectacular iguazu falls. Last time, the best way to get money for your trip was on the blackmarket. But, now that constraints on the official rate have eased, there is longer any advantage to changing on the streets. So these days i recommend taking a credit card or two, and some us dollars. Though you shouldnt need too many, because argentina remains outstanding value. Whether youre contemplating a trip to the nation next door, or the end of the earth, im here to help. So e mail your question, and i will do my very best to find you an answer. From me, simon calder, the global guru, bye for now and see you next time. Japans food can bejust jaw dropping, and most people new to the country make a beeline for the yakitori joints or sushi stands youll find everywhere. I have been in tokyo for three years now, and i love japanese food. But there is still some ifind quite intimidating. So, with a little help from my translator, im taking my tastebuds on a trip through this country, to try and understand what im missing out on. Wow, look at this octopus. This is tokyos tsukiji market, the worlds biggest fish market. The Early Morning tuna options are the biggest attraction, butjust the sheer range of creatures here is fascinating. That is a lot of blood and guts. It wont be around forever, though. It is likely to be relocated next year to a site outside central tokyo. This is all so fresh. I think i need something with a kick. The outer market is where you can try some of the more exotic flavours. So this is shiokara. There are lots of different types, but this is squid. Now, ive been told that this one you can see there are some dark bits in it, which is basically the whole squid. There is the skin, there is everything. Shiokara is fish fermented with its own entrails in a salty liquid, usually made from wheat, miso and oil. It is usually served as an appetiser, in small portions, with some alcohol. Very strong it is really chewy, really very, very strong. I dont want to offend her, but. 0h, 0k. I need a drink. Now, i dont mind squid. Its just the fermentation and the entrails i have problems with. So, to convince me im wrong, she takes me to a class run by one japans most famous fermenters. So why do the japanese like shiokara so much . So ive got hold of the head and the tentacles very firmly. And im meant to pull, and intestines are meant to come out. It is so slimy. 0k, slowly, slowly. Is this right . Ugh, look at this. Stuff oozing out. He said this will be good. We eat this bit . So this is soya bean, wheat. What else . Salt and water. Put some into this bowl, because it will smell really bad. But suddenly i stumble across something that mightjust make a difference. Maybe it goes better with beer, if its fishy. Sake so it seems shiokara makes most sense when eaten with sake. I wonder whether that might just make the difference. This shiokara specialist, with a vast menu, is just around the corner akihabara, from tokyos famous electric town. They have 60 different types here, from squid through to cherry shrimp, octopus, and shark. Ive arranged to meet a sake somelier, who runs Tasting Tours around the city. Lets try a shark bone. Maybe the texture should be interesting, i think. Ok, here goes. The colour looks pretty, ill give it that. Very crunchy. Very, very, very fishy. Mmm. Thats good. So, in general, i think the dry sake should go well with any kinds of shiokara. If shiokara has a strong taste, or strong umami, maybe it should go well with a sake with a complex taste. That definitely compliments. Thats where i was going wrong. I didnt have a sake. Well, thats all weve got time for on this weeks show. But coming up next week we pay a flying visit to the greek islands, and visit the first of them to run a tourist industry on the wind and sun alone. The tourist industry here on tilos is pretty sustainable anyway, but they are setting a good example. So dojoin us then if you can. And you can catch up with us on the road in real time by signing up to our social media feeds. Details are on the screen now. But from me, christa larwood, and from the rest of the travel show team, its goodbye. Hello there. With a ridge of High Pressure building in for tuesday, it looks like today could actually be the better day of the week for most of us. Chilly start, mind you, where skies cleared overnight. Temperatures in low single figures in some rural spots. Here is the ridge of High Pressure, then. This weather system will be making inroads for wednesday. Meanwhile, this is the weather front which brought the rain during last night. And there could be a few showers across the south east, as that weather front continues to clear away. But essentially it is a nice fine, dry start a chilly start, mind you, and there will be some mist and fog around. Some of it could be quite dense in places, central, southern areas across the midlands into cheshire. Eventually it will lift during the morning, potentially into low cloud, before breaking up. But you can see plenty of sunshine on the map there, from Northern England in towards scotland. For northern ireland, though, clouds will be thickening up, particularly across western areas, but there could be early brightness across the belfast area. But the cloud is thickening up here because of this weather front, which is slowly making inroads off the atlantic. Elsewhere, youll see a little bit of cloud just bubbling up through the day. There could be an isolated shower, but most places will be dry. Light winds, as well, and despite the chilly start, it should get pleasantly warm into the afternoon. The high teens celsius across central, southern and eastern areas, and there is still some strength in the sunshine. Now, as we head on in towards wednesday, this weather front slowly makes inroads off the atlantic. We lose our ridge of High Pressure, but it will be bringing air from the south south west. That is always a mild directions, so temperatures will be on the rise. And, in fact, for the eastern half of the country, it doesnt look too bad. Through the day, well hold onto some sunny spells, where it will feel quite warm. But further west it goes downhill, turning windier with outbreaks of rain, quite heavy in parts of western scotland and northern and northern ireland. So mid teens celsius here, 18 or 19 degrees again across the east and south east. Now, for thursday, it looks even wetter. This weather front has some pretty heavy rain on it, particularly for the south west of england, towards wales, south west of scotland. Could be concern about rainfall amounts building up there by the Time Thursday is out. Again, the south east escaping, seeing the sunshine, and itll stay warm. Now, lets zoom out, head across the atlantic in towards the caribbean because, of course, weve got the next major hurricane making inroads in towards the leeward islands. Now, Hurricane Maria is a major storm, category four storm. It is ploughing through some of the islands as it works its way west north west. So we could be looking at some destruction, very heavy rain and flooding, and coastal surge. Welcome to bbc news, broadcasting to viewers in north america and around the globe.
