Let Us Help You
Travel isn’t just about going somewhere. It’s about how it makes you feel when you get there – and long after you return. Our latest issue of The Concierge Magazine: Top 100 Luxury Travel Gems showcases the world’s most inspiring, indulgent, and transformative experiences, curated by our expert Travel Associates advisors.
This edition is more than a list – it’s a passport to your next one-of-a-kind adventure, celebrating everything from remote escapes to cultural immersion. And where better to begin than with the most soul-stirring, bucket-list-topping escapes of all? Our Dream Experiences gathers exceptional journeys that capture the magic of travel at its absolute finest.
1. The Dolomites, Italy
Rugged beauty meets refined luxury in Italy’s Dolomites. Whether you’re carving fresh snow beneath pale alpine peaks or unwinding in a five-star spa with panoramic mountain views, this is where adventure and elegance converge. Our advisors love it for its all-season appeal – from hiking wildflower trails in summer to snow-dusted slopes come winter.
2. Quark Expeditions
For those who dream of standing on the edge of the world, Quark delivers. Think polar bears, icebergs, and Zodiac landings on remote Arctic shores. These are voyages for the true explorers, crafted in comfort and guided by specialists. It’s travel that doesn’t just take you to the ends of the Earth, but changes how you see it.
3. Rocky Mountaineer, Canada
Glass-domed carriages, gourmet meals, and slow, scenic luxury...this is train travel reimagined. Glide through Canada’s dramatic wilderness on the Rocky Mountaineer, where every curve of track reveals a new wonder: soaring peaks, glacier-fed lakes, and wildlife in the wild. It’s a front-row seat to nature’s grandest show.
4. Golden Eagle Luxury Trains
If your idea of a dream holiday includes silk sheets, caviar, and the sound of wheels rolling across Siberian plains, this one’s for you. Golden Eagle journeys are as much about cultural depth as they are about opulence, offering exclusive access to legendary rail routes through Russia, Central Asia, and beyond.
5. Sno’n’Ski Holidays
Sometimes dreams come with a powdery white finish. From the Alps to the Rockies, Sno’n’Ski tailor snow getaways to suit every kind of skier and snowboarder. Our advisors love how these holidays balance action with après-ski indulgence: think private chalets, ski-in spas, and mulled wine by a crackling fire.
6. AmaWaterways River Cruises
Sailing Europe’s great rivers aboard AmaWaterways is like stepping into a storybook where medieval towns, vineyard-covered hills, and grand capitals drift past your window. With fewer guests, immersive excursions, and award-winning cuisine, it’s intimate and enriching – a dream for those who want depth without the crowds.
7. Explora Journeys
Explora reinvents ocean cruising with a yacht-inspired ethos. Spacious suites, curated culinary experiences, and wellness woven into every detail make this a modern way to roam. Designed for travellers who crave authenticity without sacrificing luxury, each journey feels personal, grounded, and endlessly elegant.
8. Silversea Cruises
Silversea is the gold standard in ultra-luxury cruising. Whether you're tracing the Chilean fjords or stepping ashore in Antarctica, every moment is elevated with all-suite accommodation, butler service, and tailored itineraries. It’s refined exploration, powered by purpose and pleasure.
9. Intrepid Premium Journeys
For those who want their luxury laced with local connection, Intrepid’s Premium range hits the sweet spot. Boutique stays, expert local guides, and rich, cultural storytelling come together to deliver experiences that feel both high-end and heart-led. It’s conscious travel – with all the comfort.
10. Viking Cruises
River or ocean, Viking combines timeless style with modern simplicity. Think Scandinavian-inspired design, enriching excursions, and a quiet elegance that’s become their signature. Our clients love Viking for its consistent excellence and the feeling that every journey, no matter how far, feels like coming home.
Each of these experiences is more than a destination – they’re invitations to see the world differently. Our dedicated advisors are here to craft every detail around you. Whether you’re drawn to Arctic adventure, alpine escape, or river serenity, your dream journey awaits.
