Four Seasons World of Adventures Trip

Building on the success of their inaugural Around the World Tour, the Four Seasons is firing up their custom Boeing 757 for a 24-day adventure. Taking off from Seattle, the highly-limited tour touches down for a history lesson in Kyoto, Japan, and includes relaxing, informative, and/or invigorating stops in Seychelles, Rwanda, Marrakech, Bogota, the Galapagos Islands, and a final stop in Miami. Ground-based accommodations will be fittingly luxurious, while the unparalleled in-flight experience includes Italian leather flat-bed seats, an onboard chef, and concierge. The adventure begins on October 23, 2019.

Axiom Space Station

The privately funded followup to the ISS, Axiom Space Station will aim to make working in space more commonplace. The Philippe Starck-designed interior includes nest-like cabins with Earth-facing windows, plenty of research areas, and the largest window observatory ever constructed for space. It's expected to be up and running by the time the ISS is retired in 2024, and unlike the ISS, you'll be able to book 7-10 day trips to the Axiom once it's completed.

Seamlessly Australia Private Jet Tour

Board a Falcon 900 and explore the Land Down Under like never before with the Seamlessly Australia Private Jet Tour. For 21 days, 8 guests will touchdown on the country's most remote locations. Each stop will offer a mix of luxurious accommodations and exotic experiences curated by the travel experts at Touring Treasures. One minute you'll be sipping champagne on a 122-foot yacht in the Sydney Harbour and the next you're face-to-face with a Tasmanian devil. Highlights include a seaplane tour of the Great Barrier Reef, lunch at the National Gallery of Australia, and a cuddle with a koala. Every detail has already been meticulously thought out for you so the only thing you have to worry about is what to pack.

White Desert Antarctic Adventures

A trip to the bottom of the world requires a bit more planning than simply buying a ticket and packing a bag. Cape Town-based White Desert Antarctic Adventures can help. Their itineraries — all of which include the world's only private jet service to the continent — range from a single day trip to Wolfs Fang peak to an eight-day excursion that features stops at an Emperor Penguin colony and the geographic South Pole. All multi-day trips take advantage of the company's sustainable Whichaway Camp, a collection of dome-shaped structures that combine high-tech materials with old-world luxury.

Night At Blue Planet II

No, you can't really spend the night at a TV show. Instead, this special Airbnb listing will give one lucky winner and their guest a chance to spend three days and two nights aboard the Alucia, the oceanic research and exploration vessel used in the filming of Blue Planet II. You'll be joining an active research trip in the Bahamas, during which you'll get the chance to explore the deep in one of the ship's two submarines. You'll eat your meals with the crew, get the chance to observe their work, and perhaps gain a new appreciation for the ocean.

Pacific Overlander Expedition Vehicles

California is littered with outdoor areas worth exploring. Pacific Overlander Expedition Vehicles make doing so highly convenient. Their fleet includes Tacomas, 4Runners, and Defenders outfitted with rooftop tents and full-sized GM trucks with bed-mounted campers. No matter which you choose, you'll be provided with all the gear you need, including a cooler or fridge, cooking equipment, and camping tables and chairs. Based in San Francisco, there are many DIY adventures to be had within their base 150 mile-per-day radius, but if you're looking for something more specific, they offer itineraries personalized to your preferences.

Scenic Eclipse Discovery Yacht

Most ships are dedicated to either luxury or discovery. The Scenic Eclipse Discovery Yacht is designed for both. The tour brand's first ocean cruise ship, it measures 168 meters long, yet has just 114 suites, each with a private verandah. With 176 crew members, it offers as close to a 1:1 ratio as you'll find, which ensures you never have to wait to enjoy your next indulgence at the spa, pool, theater, lounges, or bars. It also carries its own Discovery team, who has a fleet of Zodiacs, kayaks, e-bikes, and other outdoor toys at their disposal to help you explore your surroundings in ways traditional luxury launches can't. Its maiden voyage launches in the Mediterranean next August, and current itineraries include trips through the Americas, Antarctica, Europe, and the Arctic.

Black Tomato Get Lost Adventure Experience

Most wilderness experiences involve being led through semi-remote areas, with a guide and group to keep you company and accommodations that are just a step away from "glamping." Black Tomato's Get Lost Adventure Experience is pretty much the opposite. You get dropped off in an unknown, uncharted destination and have to explore your way through various checkpoints over several days, using nothing but your wits, provided equipment, and some navigational tools to get you there. You can choose the type of environment you want for your adventure — jungle, desert, etc. — but that's all the input you get. When you get to the airport, you won't know where you're heading or what you'll need to do to persevere, but rest assured you'll get quite the send off when you reach your goal, as well as a real feeling of satisfaction knowing you just tackled the great outdoors all by yourself.

World's Longest Zipline

Jebel Jais, the highest peak in the United Arab Emirates, will soon be home to a new world-class attraction. The World's Longest Zipline is set to open there in December. Developed by and Ras Al Khaimah and current record holder Toro Verde, the exact length is still unknown, but is guaranteed to best the already impressive 2,200-meter span of Puerto Rico's "The Monster." Riders will reach speeds between 55 and 80 mph on their descent, with side-by-side cables allowing families and couples to experience the face-down thrill together, and thanks to its unique position atop a mountain, it might also lay claim to another title: world's tallest.

Wales Coast Path Walking Tour

Guided tours are nothing new, but since most of them cart you from place to place via vehicle, you only get a glimpse of the place you're in. The Wales Coast Path Walking Tour gives you a chance to take in the outline of this breathtaking country at your own pace. More "suggested" than "guided," this pre-arranged journey includes detailed route maps — hint: keep the sea to your right — and 80 nights of accommodations. While you'll spend the majority of your time walking, they also spread 11 rest days throughout the trip in places like Cardiff and Porthmadog that are worth an extended look. Your stays are spread across high-end B&Bs, farmhouses, and small local inns, and they can also adjust your itinerary if you're a fast walker or want an even more leisurely pace.

Land Rover Driving Adventures

Whether it's wildlife or wild trails you seek, the latest Land Rover Driving Adventures have you covered. The eight-day Namibia Adventure sees you take an epic road trip past sand dunes, through the animal-filled Etosha National Park, all the way to where the Namib desert meets the South Atlantic Ocean. For those seeking bigger thrills, the five-day Utah Adventure sends you out on some of Moab's most challenging trails, including the Seven Mile Rim, Poison Spider Mesa, and Hells Revenge Trails. No matter which you choose, you'll get to know the new Discovery well, with all driving activities, accommodation, meals, and airport transfers included in the price.

Outer Shores Expeditions

Explore the diverse wildlife and rugged landscapes of Canada's Pacific Coast aboard a wooden schooner with Outer Shores Expeditions. These small-ship voyages allow guest to travel the waters of British Columbia while taking in some of the most impressive scenery in the world. The 70-foot vessel named Passing Cloud is a traditional wooden schooner equipped with ample deck space for observing grizzly bears and passing dolphins. Below deck, classic maritime accommodations come in the form of three private staterooms, a wheelhouse, and the main salon. Trips range from 5 to 9 days and include locations like Vancouver Island, Haida Gwaii, and the Great Bear Rainforest. There are even special options for photographers and private tours.

Extreme Tornado Tours

Many people prefer to be as far away from severe weather as possible. For others, though, storms are a real thrill — and Extreme Tornado Tours is the best way to get a front-row seat for the action. Operating out of both Oklahoma City and Denver, these tours are run by experienced professionals in specialized vans packed with weather-monitoring equipment. Hotel stays for your 7-10 day excursion, and a guaranteed window seat in the van, are included in the price, meaning all you need to worry about is your food, flight, and camera.

Endangered Species Private Jet Safari

Plenty of safaris give you a chance to see amazing animals in their natural environments. The Endangered Species Private Jet Safari does them one better by connecting you with experts who help you get a better grasp on what's being done to protect the most vulnerable species. The trip begins in Nairobi, then heads to the Masai Mara National Game Reserve where you'll meet with both a cheetah and lion expert during a two-night stay. You'll then head to the famous Samburu Elephant Watch Camp for another two nights; other stops include Laikipia and Lewa to see and learn more about wild dogs, rhinos, crocodiles, and hippos. Between each stop your plane will fly low, giving you a unique birds-eye view of the Savannah, before heading back to Nairobi for your trip home.

Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection

Sporting 139 suites spread across its 190m length, the Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection promises the same level of service as its hotels, at sea. Each suite will have its own private balcony and well-designed, modern interior, and will be joined by several duplex penthouses. Thanks to its smaller size compared to cruise ships, it will be able to call at a variety of unique locations across the Caribbean, Latin America, Mediterranean, and Northern Europe, with both overnight and single-day calls planned. The vessel will also offer a restaurant from Michelin-starred chef Sven Elverfeld, a lounge with a panoramic view and a full-service spa. Reservations open next May for voyages beginning in 2019.

Shiki-Shima Train

Experience the beauty of the Japanese countryside and the outstanding service that the island nation is known for aboard the Shiki-Shima Train. This ten-car sightseeing train was designed by Ken Okuyama, the former Pininfarina Design Director responsible for the Ferrari Enzo, and offers a host of delights for its passengers. Those include a dining room serving cuisine from Eastern Japan, an airy lounge, two window-lined observation cars, and suites that combine traditional Japanese design with modern touches. Itineraries ranging from a one-night-two-day tour to a three-night, four-day excursion, but unfortunately, it's already booked for the rest of the year, and to get a ticket, you'll need to fill out a form and enter a lottery that determines who gets the privilege of climbing aboard.

Spirit Of Shackleton Antarctic Voyage

Embarking from Ushuaia, Argentina, the Spirit Of Shackleton Antarctic Voyage is a 21-day excursion that lets you explore some of the most beautiful, unspoiled land (and water) in the world. On the trip, you'll visit Antarctica, the Falkland Islands, and the island of South Georgia, where Shackleton ended up after escaping the wreck of his crushed ship. In addition to all the wildlife you'll encounter, you'll also learn more about the area via lectures given onboard your 134-passenger expedition ship, and hopefully return home with a greater appreciation of life in the polar region.

Native Campervans

Campervans are ideal for short getaways. They're not ideal daily drivers, so unless you plan on living one, you're spending a lot of money for something that's going to sit in your driveway much of the time. Native Campervans are pre-configured rentals that give you the convenience without the hassles of ownership. Available in two sizes, they offer enclosed sleeping areas, kitchens with sinks and gas stoves, foldaway tables, and everything else you need for a brief adventure. You get 100 miles per day included with the rental and have a convenient pickup/drop-off location just north of downtown Denver.

Crystal AirCruise

Combining the most luxurious private jet experience with the safety and economy of a full-size Boeing, Crystal AirCruise is a new high-end way to explore the world. The customized 777 offers the widest in-cabin configuration, highest ceilings, and highest staff-to-guest ratio of any private jet. While aboard, you can enjoy seats that convert into 180º lie-flat beds, an onboard wine cellar, and Michelin star-inspired cuisine in the separate dining and lounge areas. Its first flight leaves this August and tours every city where Peninsula Hotels operates; other trips, including to various wine-producing regions and the South Pacific, are scheduled for 2018 and include a full itinerary, so you won't have to search for things to do once you land.
