Luxury Gold guests are accustomed to a certain level of comfort, but that doesn’t mean they like to scrimp on adventure. If you have a spirit that can’t be quelled and a bucket list that needs tending to in the next year, we have plenty of ideas for luxury adventure vacations that will capture your imagination.

We give each of our luxury adventure tours an activity level: leisurely, balanced or dynamic. And the level of activity is not necessarily equal to the level of adventure. For instance, on a leisurely (short distances, flat surfaces) luxury vacation in New Zealand, you’ll cover cities, caves, hot springs, waterfalls, and a treewalk made up of 28 suspension bridges, and on a dynamic luxury journey to Italy, the Cinque Terre is more intrepid than it looks (longer distances, trickier terrain). Here are six bucket list trips to get you thinking.

Look for the big five in Kruger National Park

Safaris tend to be quite high on everyone’s list of luxury adventure vacations – is it finally time? If your bucket list priority is to see lions, leopards, elephants, rhinos and buffalo (the big five) in one trip, this epic national park offers a diverse range of terrain including mountains, rivers, savannah and tropical forests. On our Spectacular South Africa journey, the private open-air safaris are led by professional trackers over three days and there are plunge pools, starlit dinners and pampering treatments aplenty back at the Lion Sands Game Reserve in between drives. This journey also includes Table Mountain, wineries and more rare wildlife sightings at Boulders Beach.

Board the Rocky Mountaineer, Luxury Gold-style

Adventure travel and rail travel go hand in hand – there is nothing quite like watching the world from your window, particularly if you happen to be sitting in the glass-domed Goldleaf car of the Rocky Mountaineer, on a reclining seat, eating from the a la carte menu (with local wine pairings), with the option of wandering to an open-air viewing vestibule. On our Majesty of the Rockies journey, you’ll travel from Banff to Vancouver, via glaciers, canyons and lakes. Waking up aboard the train on the home-stretch and eating a gourmet breakfast beside some of the most dazzling scenery in the world completes a luxury journey like no other.

Explore the lesser traveled wildernesses of Japan

You may know (and long for) Japan’s cities, sushi, skyscrapers, shrines and cherry blossom sightings but there are breathtaking wonders further afield, too. Oirase Gorge – within the Towada-Hachimantai National Park on the main island – is an enchanting river valley that encompasses verdant forests, dramatic waterfalls and crystal clear streams. Experiencing an onsen in Tokyo is one thing, but taking a soothing soak in the forest is unforgettable. Our Majestic Japan journey is dynamic, which means four miles of walking on some days, with some steep hills. It includes views of Mount Fuji from a cable car, a tea ceremony and a meeting with a cherry blossom doctor, plus mind-expanding meals and some of the most extravagant and cozy hotels in the world.

Hike to get the best sunset views at Angkor Wat

Together, Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam make for one of the most epic luxury adventure vacations you can have. There’s the lush greenery, floating markets and flower farms of the Mekong Delta, the Imperial Citadel of Hue, the sheer magic (and the pho) of Hoi An, the glittering emerald waters of Ha Long Bay, ethereal Luang Prabang (the whole town is a UNESCO World Heritage site) and vistas aplenty in between. Nothing beats the golden, glowing view of Angkor Wat, though, at least as good as everyone says it is, reflected in the water below. On our Inspiring Indochina journey, an archaeologist is on hand to guide you to the best spots.

Walk the steep, rugged coastline of the Cinque Terre

In northwest Italy, the Cinque Terre is made up of five pastel-coloured cliffside villages overlooking the Ligurian Sea, connected by narrow walking paths and a few incredibly precarious mountain roads. The Cinque Terre National Park is a UNESCO World Heritage site – described as a landscape of great scenic and cultural value. There are 120km of trails along this stretch of coastline, and the breathtaking views alone make it a bucket list walk. See this most rugged, enchanting coastline on our Ultimate Italy journey, which also covers Rome, Umbria, Florence and Venice – truly the luxury vacation to Italy you’ve been dreaming of.

Weave through the cloud forest to Machu Picchu

When one thinks of adventure travel, Machu Picchu comes quickly to mind. In the middle of a tropical mountain forest in Peru, 2,430m above sea level, the sprawling Inca citadel must be seen up close to be believed. On our Grand South America journey, you’ll board the panoramic Vistadome train to Machu Picchu, pausing for lunch above the Vilcanota River followed by a guided walk through the unfathomably lush and mesmerizing cloud forest. This luxury vacation also features wine in Casablanca Valley, Eva Peron’s balcony in Buenos Aires and cocktails on Copacabana Beach.

Siem Reap, Cambodia

There’s a reason why Siem Reap, a town in northwestern Cambodia, is a popular destination for many travelers beacuse it’s one of the best places to visit in Asia when it comes to awe-inspiring temples and UNESCO listed sites.

Maldives

For a more ‘no shoes, no news’ kind of vacation, the Maldives is one of the best places to visit in Asia, and its tranquil escapism will leave you feeling truly rested and recharged.

Gourmet dining options range from the dinner in the treetops to beachside barbecues under the stars for experiences you’ll never forget. The resort makes use of organic produce from its own gardens, meaning the food can even outshine the setting – though with special dining experiences such as the Astronomical Dinner Cruise and the Desert Island Picnic, the views will be unparalleled.

Osaka, Japan

Any trip to Japan is going to be a culinary delight, but Osaka is one of the best places to visit in Asia for food-lovers. Often overlooked in favor of Kyoto, a trip to Osaka will allow you to explore this bustling city, visiting the Tenma, Tsuruhashi, and Shin-Sekai neighborhoods in search of the best teppanyaki. When you visit Osaka with Luxury Gold, you’ll discover why Osaka is known as the ‘kitchen of Japan’ as you stroll through Donburi street with a Local Expert, taste local specialties like takoyaki, crispy battered balls of octopus, spring onions and ginger.

Agra, India

No visit to India is complete without a trip to Agra, home of the Taj Mahal – but there’s no better way to see this popular destination than with Luxury Gold. Your hotel, an oasis away from the city’s busy streets, is just a stone’s throw away from the Taj Mahal, and you can even see views of the UNESCO World Heritage Site from the pool. You’ll rise before the sun on one of your days in Agra to view the Taj Mahal. With the light of dawn and fewer visitors you’ll have time to fully appreciate its grandeur in peace, accompanied by only the birds and monkeys.  

You’ll leave the grandeur of the monument and meet the community living in the shadow of the Taj Mahal when you take a Mughal Heritage Walk. Discover hidden gems of the area and learn about daily life in the ancient village with impressive vistas of India’s most famous monument. Through this initiative, tourism helps suppoprt the community and improve their living conditions.

Phang Nga Bay, Thailand

Phang Nga Bay, also known as Ao Phang Nga National Park, may be one of the best places to visit in Asia – especially for film buffs, who’ll recognize it as the backdrop for the 1974 James Bond movie The Man with a Golden Gun, featuring Koh Tapu island. Its distinctive limestone cliffs and striking rock formations give it an otherworldly aura, supported by mangrove forests and small islands dotted around. Found between southern Thailand’s mainland and Phuket Island, here you can explore countless caves and lagoons, and snorkel along coral reefs.  

One of the best luxury hotels in the area, Six Senses Yao Noi offers cliffside private villas that feel like staying in a tree house, with incredible views over Phang Nga Bay. The boutique hotel is designed using natural materials that harmonize with the landscape, and when it comes to dining you can relish local, seasonal ingredients. For exclusive dining head to the Hilltop, where you can relish a Thai dinner with exceptional bay views. 

Singapore

The glamor of Singapore can’t be underestimated, with futuristic cityscapes, grand gardens, and incredible restaurants waiting within the city. Take a ride on the Eastern & Oriental Express, as you journey from the urban buzz of Singapore deep into the Malaysian jungle, and back again on this slow and luxurious journey. Don’t miss Singapore’s annual thrill as Formula 1 returns each September at the iconic Marina Bay Street Circuit. It was F1’s original night race, and the city lights almost outshine the cars. When it comes to dinner, both fine dining and authentic street food are covered; don’t sleep on the latter, with Hawker Centers offering some of the best food in Singapore – Chan Hon Meng was the first Singapore street food chef to win a Michelin star in 2016 for his stall, Hawker Chan. 

Nuwara Eliya, Sri Lanka

The unique charm of Nuwara Eliya – a lush, picturesque hill city in central Sri Lanka’s tea country – is that it’s a far cry from the bright sunshine and cloudless beaches you’ll see on postcards, although that doesn’t make it any less picture perfect. At 1,800 meters above sea level you’ll find cool, crisp weather with highs of 22° (72ºF) in April, the region’s hottest month, as well as misty clouds that give it the name ‘Little England’. Like England itself, it’s the kind of climate that invites you to curl up with a steaming cup of tea – which you’ll be doing after a tour of one of Nuwara Eliya’s many historic tea estates. We promise you haven’t tasted tea like this before, with whole Ceylon tea leaves bringing a much more delicate flavor as they’re brewed right at the source. 

Outside of the tea estates, the cooler climate offers the perfect conditions for dramatic, misty hikes through the nearby forests, while the Nuwara Eliya Golf Club, one of the oldest golf clubs in Asia, is definitely worth a visit – and contributes to making this one of the best places to visit in Asia. 

Mt. Fuji, Japan

There’s no bad season to travel to Mount Fuji: in the summer it’s officially open for climbing; in fall the foliage turns a symphony of burnt orange and reds; in winter you can ski; and in spring, cherry blossoms are in bloom. While you can spot Fuji on the train between Tokyo and Osaka, it’s worth visiting for more than a fleeting glimpse. The Fuji Five Lake (Fujigoko) region at the northern foot of the mountain provides picture-perfect views of the mountain, as do Lake Kawaguchiko’s onsens (hot springs).

Jaipur, India

The capital of India’s Rajasthan state, Jaipur is affectionately known as the ‘Pink City’ for its trademark, dusty pink building color, the most famous of which is Hawa Mahal, a five-story pink sandstone structure in the heart of the city with 953 small windows. If picture-worthy architecture and incredible palaces are on your list, Jaipur will deliver in spades.  

Unique experiences are waiting on your Luxury Gold journey to Jaipur, as you enjoy a private access tour around Jaipur City Palace including the maharajah’s personal living room, normally off limits to visitors, before you savor an Indian-inspired high tea on the regal terrace. More architectural marvels await as you stroll through the intricately designed complex of courtyards and halls of Amber Fort, decorated with shimmering walls and ceilings. Embrace the hubbub of the city as you visit Jaipur’s flower and spice market, or attend a traditional prayer ceremony at a white marble Hindu temple.

Hue, Vietnam

Hue has a reputation among Vietnamese people as being the most romantic city in the country, and your Luxury Gold trip to Hue will show you the most beautiful sides of it. You’ll stay at Pilgrimage Village, a tranquil hotel situated among leafy trees and quiet countryside. This is your oasis, where you can take part in meditation, yoga or tai chi classes in your free time, and unwind in the steam bath. When you’re out and about, you’ll be cycling through rice fields through the countryside to Thanh Toan village, where you can visit the lively local market, bargain with the locals and see traditional houses. Soak up the agricultural way of life, a suitable contrast to the city.

Udaipur, India

Udaipur goes by many nicknames such as ‘City of Lakes’ or ‘Venice of the East’, famous not only for its lakes but also its palaces. On a Luxury Gold journey you’ll witness the city’s historical grandeur as you visit the City Palace complex that towers over the banks of Lake Pichola and lay eyes on the intricate Ranakpur’s Jain Temples, a marvel made up of almost 1500 white marble pillars.

Bali, Indonesia

Bali is a well-trodden destination ever since 2010’s Eat, Pray, Love with Julia Roberts – but there are still relatively undiscovered spots where you can avoid the crowds while taking in Bali’s unparalleled beauty. One of those is Amed, an East Bali beach town and something of a hidden gem. One of the best spots in Asia for scuba diving in the world at Amed Reef, yoga classes overlooking the island at Blue Earth Village, or sundowners at the clifftop infinity pool at Sunset Point, Amed offers a laid-back vacation with plenty to see and do. 

Hoi An, Vietnam

Vietnam’s glowing, lantern-filled city of Hoi An is well-renowned as one of the country’s most romantic places to visit. When you journey with Luxury Gold, you’ll stay at the Anantara Hoi An Resort on the banks of the Thu Bon River. Just moments away from the historic part of Hoi An, this tranquil hotel overlooks the river where you can take in the views from your sunbed, or make use of its spa services when you’re not exploring.  Hoi An’s ancient Old Town is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and you’ll explore this charming, historic area seeing well-preserved buildings that date back several centuries, spotting hundreds of colorful lanterns along the way. 

When you’re not in the town itself, you’ll visit the beautiful Cam Thanh Village with its dense coconut jungles, learning its history during the Vietnam War and its current status as a supplier of seafood, vegetables and rice. Glide across the water in a traditional bamboo-basket boat to the Thanh Dong village where you’ll hear about local farming customs, continuing through a peaceful water coconut forest to a riverside restaurant overlooking the rice fields. Get stuck into a hands-on cooking class alongside a local chef – and enjoy your hard work for lunch.

Kobe, Japan

Don’t overlook cosmopolitan Kobe when thinking of the best places to visit in Asia. Here you can explore the bustling city while still being surrounded by sea and mountains when in downtown Kobe. Walking through Kobe is the best way to see the city, which is on the smaller side compared to goliaths like Tokyo. It’s all too easy to eat and drink your way round Kobe, home of the world-renowned Kobe beef – it won’t taste better than in its home city. Wakkoqu is one of the best restaurants to try Kobe beef, where you can watch the chef prepare your meal in front of you. Kobe is also one of Japan’s leading areas for sake brewing, with sake brewery tours showing you the process from grain to bottle. To relax away from the bustle of city life, visit one of the most famous hot springs in Japan, Arima Onsen, just 30 minutes from downtown Kobe but still within the city limits. Make sure to head out of the city one evening to the mountains where you can see the city lights sparkle, known as the “million dollar night view”. 

Luang Prabang, Laos

Step back in time when you visit Luang Prabang, with its well-preserved colonial architecture and traditional Lao style – the town is also UNESCO World Heritage Site. When you travel with Luxury Gold, the Luang Say Residence will be your home, designed in an elegant colonial style. This 5-star boutique hotel offers breathtaking views of the surrounding mountain ranges, while you can stroll through the lush tropical gardens within the hotel itself. You’ll rise with the sun to participate in the centuries-old Buddhist tradition of offering alms to the monks from the ancient temples of Luang Prabang, sharing this deeply spiritual ceremony with the local people.  

Ascend the sacred mountain, Mount Phousi, taking in the natural beauty from the top as you spot the confluence of the Mekong and Nam Khan rivers with the jungle-clad mountains rising in the distance. Perhaps you’ll even spot the place where you’ll take a sunset cruise along the Mekong River later on, observing rural life along the tree-lined banks of this magnificent river while enjoying a sundowner and all the burning colors of the magnificent sunset.

Traveling by train is the epitome of the idea that the journey can be every bit as meaningful as the destination. It’s a mode of transportation that has not only stood the test of time, but remains arguably the most comfortable, relaxing and romantic ways to get from A to B. And few regions of the world offer the amount of inter-connectivity, rail travel heritage and environmental variation that you’ll find when traveling by train through Europe. But when it comes to the question of ‘what’s the most scenic train ride in Europe?’, that’s ultimately for you to decide. Here, in no particular order, are 10 of the most scenic train rides in Europe for you to consider.

Glacier Express, Switzerland

Leave life in the fast lane for the slowest train in the world, the Glacier Express. You’ll ascend over 6,600 feet to the top of the Oberalp Pass, cruising through tunnels, past rows of spruce, and across the mountainside. This train travels at a leisurely 24mph, much of it through a UNESCO World Heritage listed site, allowing you to take in the beauty of the Swiss mountains in around 8 hours.  

Fine food and dining can be enjoyed on one of the world’s greatest train journeys through the Swiss Alps. It would seem a shame not to toast one the amazing views with a crisp Swiss white, and one of the best onboard is the Johannisberg Cuvée Spéciale Glacier Express.

What is the most beautiful train ride in the Alps?

With its panoramic views and guaranteed window seats, the Glacier Express won the 2023 World Luxury Travel Award in the category “Train Tours”. We’d say that crowns it as one of the most beautiful train rides in the Alps.

Bordeaux to Paris, France

With a Luxury Gold journey to the South of France, your return to Paris from Bordeaux will be speeding through the French countryside to Paris at 320 kmph on a high-speed train. The best part, apart from the views of the meadows and the occasional castle, is that you’ll be in Paris in time for lunch – the train takes just 2 hours.

Flåm Railway Scenic Train, Norway

In 2014, Lonely Planet named the Flåm Railway the best train journey in the world – and it’s still certainly one of the most scenic train rides in Europe. Here you’ll take a more vintage style of train through Norway, from high mountains in Myrdal station down to the very bottom of the Aurlandsfjord, decked out in a nostalgic wooden interior with the large passenger windows you’d expect from a train that goes through the changing scenery of the Flåm Valley. The train takes a five-minute stop at the Kjosfossen waterfall, where you can stretch your legs and see the cascade from the platforn. It’s only around an hour’s journey, but you’ll be wishing it was longer – in which case you can hop back on the train and return to Myrdal.

Cinque Terre, Manarola to Rapallo, Italy

Experience some of the most awe-inspiring coastal scenery on earth at the UNESCO-listed Cinque Terre when you journey with Luxury Gold. After exploring the charming fishing village of Manarola with your Local Expert, you’ll travel by train to the historic and colorful resort town of Rapallo. Italy’s most popular scenic rail trip may be short, but it sure is sweet! As the train hugs the coastline you feel as if you’re floating across the water, from one picture-perfect village to another.

Brenner Railway, Munich, Germany to Venice, Italy

The Brenner Railway was the first to cross the Alps in the 1860s, so while there are more modern options out there, this is by far one of the most charming – and it has the added benefit of passing through three countries: Germany, Austria and Italy. Starting at Munich and ending in Venice, those two great cities set high standards for views and architecture. Over the course of around 6 and a half hours, enjoying the transition up to panoramic mountain views. The opportunity to stretch your legs at the Brenner Pass, the highest point of the trip at 1371m (4498ft), is one you won’t forget.

Nova Gorica to Jesenice, Slovenia 

Tread off the beaten path and onto the Bohinj Railway, which connects two Slovenian towns: Nova Gorica and Jesenice. As far as the term ‘picture perfect’ goes, this scenic train journey fits the bill, climbing the narrow Bača Valley, plunging into the four-mile Bohinj Tunnel and emerging in the spectacular Julian Alps. You’ll slowly pass by the bright blue waters of the famous Lake Bled, eventually stopping where you can follow a footpath down through the woods to the lakeshore.

Bergensbanen, Norway 

One of the less famous scenic train rides in Europe, Bergensbanen travels between Oslo and Bergen in around six and a half hours. In that time you’ll see the fill spectrum of Norway’s natural beauty, from canyons and mountains to rivers, fjords and waterfalls. If you’re lucky, you might even spot Arctic foxes, snow owls or herds of reindeer out the window. 

Royal Scotsman, Scotland 

Take in the beauty of the Scottish Highlands on one of the world’s most luxurious trains, stopping to try a dram of Scotch whisky at a world-famous distillery, try your hand at clay pigeon shooting, or even dive into one of Scotland’s many mystical lochs for a wild swim.  

Fresh Scottish cuisine is served throughout the day and evening as you dine in the mahogany-paneled restaurant cars, showcasing the country’s finest seafood and local produce. You’re joined by a maximum of just 35 fellow guests, who you can mingle with for after dinner drinks by candlelight. For a bit of extra pampering, pop into the Dior Spa onboard and let the holistic experts take care of you.

The Presidential Train, Portugal 

Portugal’s Presidential Train once transported royalty in the 20th century, and although it was retired in 1970 only to be restored to its former glory 40 years later. Today, you’ll board the Presidential Train at Porto’s São Bento station and journey to Quinta do Vesuvio, rolling past the Douro Valley’s famous vineyards and the Douro River. Spectacular views are accompanied by live music and multi-course menus from Michelin-starred chefs, while Portuguese wine and port tastings further elevate the 10-hour train route.

Jacobite Steam Train, Scotland 

Not just one of the most scenic train rides in Europe, but in the world, the Jacobite Steam Train is full of nostalgic charm. Starting near the highest mountain in Britain, Ben Nevis, it passes by loch Morar (the deepest freshwater loch in Britain) and arrives at the deepest seawater loch in Europe, Loch Nevis. The 84-mile round trip also passes Morar and the beaches used in the 1986 film Highlander. Harry Potter fans will recognize one of the most famous stops on this route, the 21-arched Glenfinnan viaduct, where the train may pause (time permitting) to allow you to take in the view.

Is there a train that takes you all around Europe?  

While there isn’t a single train that can take you all around Europe, there are rail passes that allow you to travel across multiple countries. The most popular is the Interrail Global Pass, which allows you to visit over 30,000 destinations in 33 countries in a ‘hop on and off’ style with no booking required – unless you’re traveling on high-speed, international or night trains.
