Luxury Itineraries across the USA

With the USA being one of our all-time favourite destinations, we’ve picked out some of the most memorable itineraries in New York State, Florida and northern California. From couples’ breaks to family holidays, celebrate your return to the States in style with one of these unforgettable trips.


A New York State Couples’ Escape with a Foodie Flavour

The Big Apple claims all the limelight, but there’s so much more to this state than the neon shimmer of its largest city. Picking up your hire car on arrival at the airport, you’ll head out to the upscale Hamptons to discover their secluded beaches, before proceeding to the foodie mecca of the Hudson Valley, where you’ll enjoy a private guided tasting tour of the gourmet eateries, craft breweries and creative shops of hip Beacon, talking to store owners, distillers, brewers and chefs.

Over the course of your seven days here, you’ll soak up glorious mountainous landscapes where thrilling outdoor activities beckon – think hiking, kayaking and fishing on the serene shores of Lake Placid in the Adirondacks.  Stylish accommodation will include Topping Rose House, the first full-service luxury hotel in the Hamptons, Troutbeck, a Hudson Valley country estate that has long-attracted romantics, humanists, naturalists and poets whose creative juices have been stoked by this region, and Lake Placid Lodge, from which you can set out on a guided hike through the Adirondack Wilderness virgin forests to the High Falls Gorge.

Five-star Florida for Families

This trip takes all the legwork and hassle out of a Florida family holiday, with priority access at Disney World, front-of-line access at Universal Studios, your own private astronaut guide at the Kennedy Space Center and even a cruise around Miami on your own charted yacht complete with jet skis, SUP paddleboards and a hot tub.

After a luxury private transfer from Orlando Airport, you’ll spend nine fabulous fun-filled days enjoying the very best that Orlando, Palm Beach and Miami have to offer: theme parks, beach days, an urban graffiti tour and an exclusive, hands-on experience with alligators, invasive pythons and chatty parrots at a farm in the Everglades, followed by an adrenaline-pumping airboat ride.

Your accommodation is equally exciting: the Four Seasons Orlando at Walt Disney World® Resort with its water slides, lazy river and climbing wall, Tom Fazio-designed championship golf course and spa; the Four Seasons Resort Palm Beach with its gorgeous private stretch of sand, heated oceanfront pools and indoor-outdoor spa; and the Four Seasons Hotel at The Surf Club in Surfside, a historic property with a glamorous Old Florida feel, set in nine acres with three swimming pools with cabanas and ‘serenity lawns’ for outdoor yoga.

Eco-friendly California for Families

This family-friendly road trip offers lots of scope for outdoor adventures in spectacular settings. Highlights include a day’s tour of Yosemite National Park with its waterfalls and granite monoliths, led by a local conservationist guide and fully tailored to your interests, and eco-rafting on the Monterey Peninsula, spotting humpbacks, orcas and blue whales and other amazing wildlife. The latter is run by a trained field biologist and wildlife artist whose custom-designed watercraft was designed for military patrol use.

Your arrival in San Francisco is followed by 10 extraordinary days you’ll never forget. Enjoy a private hike through Sonoma County’s wilderness, learning about the redwood trees so crucial to this ecosystem, and explore the translucent waters of Lake Tahoe on a private guided kayak tour, to name just two of the treats in store.

Your memorable overnighters include The Bodega Bay Lodge overlooking the Pacific Ocean, with views of fishermen plying the bay and migrating whales, Rush Creek Lodge, a wilderness resort with decks for soaking up the surrounding nature, and the Carmel Valley Ranch with its beekeepers, organic garden, vineyard, mountain-top yoga, swimming pools and golf.

Set-jetting: The world's most cinematic destinations to visit right now

22 April 2026

More than half of all travellers now research a destination after seeing it on screen, and the results are genuinely exciting: set jetting is sending curious travellers to places they might never have otherwise considered, taking them deeper into destinations than a standard itinerary ever would. The best set-jetting trips aren't just about ticking off a filming location. They're about using a story you love as a way into somewhere real. Here are the destinations doing it best right now - and the shows that are sending people there.

This resort is the most striking place to experience Mount Fuji

22 April 2026

Most people see Mount Fuji from a distance – either from the Shinkansen window or briefly between buildings in Tokyo. Hanz Outdoor Resort, set directly on the northern shore of Lake Kawaguchiko, offers something meaningfully different. Here, the mountain dominates the view from your villa terrace, from the lake at dawn, and from the open-air thermal baths fed by natural waters sourced from Fuji itself. It's a base that works both for first-time visitors who want to understand why this mountain holds such significance in Japanese culture and for repeat travellers ready to explore the less-visited corners of the Fuji Five Lakes region. The resort has also been featured in National Geographic, Time Out, and described by Metro UK as “the most beautiful campsite they had ever seen”. Here are a few reasons why…

Explore Rio de Janeiro, Iguaçu Falls, Salvador, and the Beaches of Bahia

Few countries pack as much variety into a single trip as Brazil. This 12-day itinerary moves through four of the country's most distinct destinations - Rio de Janeiro's iconic cityscape, the raw scale of Iguaçu Falls, Salvador's Afro-Brazilian history and street life, and the calm of Bahia's Coconut Coast. Each stop is different in character, and together they give a genuine sense of just how much this country has to offer.
