Travel is an enormously personal prospect. Each of us looks for something different from the experience, deriving meaning and joy in often wildly divergent ways. Maybe you’re an adrenaline junkie, maybe you’re a culture fiend, maybe you’re a gourmand... Whatever your passion, finding a trip that caters to your niche interests can be a very rewarding challenge. For travellers of means, bespoke travel is the ultimate indulgence. Having the ability to tailor-make your trip is a game-changer, particularly if you can engage the services of luxury travel experts who can guide you towards some truly life-changing experiences.

Adventure travel lends itself neatly to luxury, too, as finding new and untapped ways of getting the heart racing can require plenty of resources and time. We track down some of the most thrilling trips out there.

Then, for the ultimate escape fantasy, nothing beats an island. There’s something incredibly alluring about saying goodbye to the outside world and retreating to your own little paradise, lapped by waves and offering limitless peace and solitude.
