My Travel Itinerary: Travelling from the UK to the USA - Miami, Florida and Grenada in the Caribbean
Flying direct to Grenada was cancelled in 2021 due to Covid, and with a Virgin Atlantic voucher expiring this year, I've repurposed the trip for Spring 2023 to include the Florida Keys and Miami. While I enjoy revisiting favorite places and airlines, I also seek to explore new countries, hotels, and airlines.
My Travel Itinerary: 24 Days in Chile - Santiago - Patagonia - Atacama Desert - Easter Island - Valparaiso
Originally part of a round-the-world trip in 2020, our visit to Chile was cancelled due to Covid-19. When we rebooked, we focused solely on Chile — giving us the chance to explore more deeply, from Patagonia in the south to the Atacama Desert in the north.
The Royal Portfolio Journey to Opulence: Unveiling South Africa's Luxury Escapes
I’ve been lucky enough to have visited South Africa a couple of times and keep wanting to go back - we had such a phenomenal stay at La Residence in Franschhoek last time by The Royal Portfolio and also saw the utterly incredible Silo Hotel being finalised in Cape Town that we definitely had to go back.
Ultimate Indonesian Bliss: A Luxe Traveller's Guide to Capella Ubud, Nihi Sumba, and The Club by Legian Bali
Having been to Bali in Indonesia now 24 and 22 years ago, a few years ago in 2019 I thought it was about time to get back there. A couple of places really had caught my eye (both Leading Hotels of the World properties) - firstly Capella Ubud having opened a luxury tented camp just outside Ubud (designed by Bill Bensley - the Creative Director and Founder of BENSLEY) in 2018, and secondly Nihi Sumba when I had read a feature on their Spa Safari.
Border Hopping: Exploring the Best of Mexico and the USA in One Journey
I love to travel and building a great itinerary with a mix of things to do and see is a great passion too. Having had to cancel a trip through Covid to the Palm Springs Modernism Week Fall Preview, as soon as this could be rearranged I put together this luxury itinerary also featuring a few locations in Mexico to being with, another favourite country.
Travel Itinerary: Seychelles, Indian Ocean.
I’ve been to the Seychelles a few times now but seeing it is now on the UK quarantine free travel corridor list and also being opened up to foreign tourists it seemed like a great idea for the first long-haul break post Covid.
Discovering Dubrovnik & Hvar: A Luxurious Journey Through Croatia's Jewels
Coming out of the Covid-lockdown I started searching for countries we could visit without a necessary quarantine on the return to the UK, as well as country with no special quarantine requirements on arrival there. It was also important for me to be able to fly there with one of my preferred airlines - British Airways, Qatar Airways or Emirates (airlines I would trust for on-board Covid safety measures/cleaning).
Ultimate Escapes: Unveiling South Africa's Luxurious Gems
This was just the most incredible trip and the first time to South Africa for ‘Mrs’ ThePrivateTraveller. I love luxury trains so had always wanted to travel on either the Blue Train or Rovos Rail in South Africa (we were advised that Rovos Rail was better).
Royal Escapes: Luxe Marrakech & Majestic Atlas Mountains Adventure
This was the first visit to North Africa and I will definitely be going back to Marrakesh, as well as wanting to try out different locations too. We had a week for this trip and were looking for somewhere not too far away (easily accessible via direct BA flights).
Exquisite Escapes: Unveiling Japan's Treasures - Tokyo, Kyoto, and Beyond
This itinerary was for the first time I ever visited Japan, but have been back since, absolutely loving everything about this culture. We only just under a fortnight for this trip, so we had a mix of cities with Tokyo and Kyoto (modern and traditional) then some relaxing beach/resort time on the island of Mijakohima in the south.
Indulgence in the Wild: Unveiling Madagascar's Luxury Travel Secrets
Madagascar is an island located in the western Indian Ocean. Madagascar lies about 425 km (266 miles) off the east coast of Southern Africa. Specifically, Madagascar is located east of Mozambique, across the Mozambique Channel. Splitting off from the rest of the world millions of years ago, it evolved its own array of species that you’ll find nowhere else on Earth.
Indulgent Escapes: Luxuriate in Sri Lanka's Anantara Peace Haven Resort and Amangalla in Galle
We were looking for somewhere to go for a 10-day break in December, so homed in on Sri Lanka, especially when realising that we could get great connecting flights from the UK with Qatar Airways.
Desert Dreams: A Luxe Journey Through Palm Springs & Las Vegas
We have visited Palm Springs a couple of times before but never during Modernism Week. Modernism Week’s signature February festival will take place February 13-23 2020.

I’ve always wanted to travel completely round the world and it seemed a perfect time to do it to celebrate a 50th birthday.
