What are the best luxury travel destinations?

From the tranquil ryokans of Japan to exclusive after-hour tours of the Vatican, enjoy luxury experiences in every country. Europe is ideal for historic cityscapes and scrumptious food affairs while Asia stuns with its varied landscapes and cultures. However, we’ve found some of the best travel destinations in even the unlikeliest of places…

Top Tour Destinations

Asia has become one of the hottest luxury travel destinations of the year, with rooms booked out a year in advance, especially in Japan for cherry blossom season. Europe and South America remain at the top with Europe’s classic vacation reputation and South America’s eclectic blend of outdoor adventure and world-class gastronomy.

Our Favorite Luxury Travel Destinations

From ancient ruins in Peru and epic safaris in South Africa to captivating city breaks in Rome and Tokyo, these are our favorite luxury vacation destinations.

  • Japan

    Japan

    Proving to be one of the hottest countries to visit this year, Japan brings nothing but rave reviews from our discerning travelers. With unmatched hospitality, incredible cuisine and stunning scenery, Japan offers experiences completely unique to the rest of the world.

    Jump into tradition with a tea ceremony and then roam the bustling streets of Tokyo to get a taste of Harajuku culture and 5-star dining. For history, no place is better than Kyoto with its geisha district (Gion) or one of the many ancient Japanese castles and torii gates still standing today.

    Truly a country of its own, we can’t recommend Japan enough.

  • Italy

    Italy

    From the Italian Alps and historic cities in the north to the radiant coast and enchanting islands in the south, this luxury vacation destination remains a quintessential escape.

    Italy’s varied terrain lends itself beautifully to year-round travel, various types of vacation, and trips fit for every kind of traveler of any age. If you’re traveling to Italy for the first time, certainly partake in the iconic Rome and Florence tour, but for veterans, we highly recommend checking out the Dolomites for some off-the-beaten-track adventure or a family Italian beach vacation to revel in the pared-back pace of life.

  • South Africa

    South Africa

    Garden Route road trips, wine estates, bold safaris, wilderness lodges – these are a few of the experiences you should expect to see on your South Africa luxury vacation itinerary. Whether you’d like to base yourself in the heart of cosmopolitan Cape Town or at a boutique game lodge in the Eastern Cape, South Africa is brimming with activities for you to jump into.

    While a safari in the famous Kruger National Park or Madikwe Game Reserve and spending a few nights beneath the stars is a must for any South Africa itinerary, we also urge you to head west to the towns of the Cape Winelands, such as Franschhoek, for a truly delectable cuisine experience and family-friendly outdoor activities like horse riding or hiking.
