Dream vacations look different to everyone, but no matter what your travel style, some experiences will always elicit that big wow. We call these trips ultra-luxe – they’re the thrill-packed itineraries to the farthest corners of the globe, the romantic private island getaways, and the unbelievable and meaningful African safaris. Get inspired by this list of ideas from Virtuoso hotels, cruise lines, and travel companies specializing in ultraluxe travel. When you’re ready to go big, The Opulent Explorer, a Virtuoso Ultraluxe member, can help make it happen.

Cruising reimagined

Don’t go on a cruise; go on a journey. Personally, I love the sea. One of my favorite travel experiences was circumnavigating the globe in 100 days starting in Vancouver and heading west. For 2 weeks we saw nothing but the open ocean and the tail end of 2 cyclones. It was a unique and exhilarating experience. But I don’t think much of cruises, and nor do my clients or peers. The world is ready to move on from this dated model to a new era of ocean-going experiences. Welcome to cruising reimagined in the 21st century.
