Latest on Getaway

On this week's Getaway Dermott sets his sights on Tokyo. Jason cruises through New Zealand's Bay of Islands and Natalie takes us on a dinosaur walk. Catriona teaches us about stay-cations in Sydney, Jules explores the Gold Coast waterways and Kelly is in Timber Town in New South Wales. We also wrap up the amazing Botswana safari we began last week.
