Top Tips for a Luxury Adventure

Adventure doesn’t have to mean budget or roughing it. In fact, adventure travel and luxury can go hand in hand, if that is what you fancy. Luxury travel also means different things to different people. For example, luxury adventure could be a lavish cruise along the stunning Norwegian Fjords or beautiful French Polynesia for some, while for others a fully supported cycling tour of the Pyrenees could be their idea of luxury. Then again, luxury adventure might mean a five-star no-costs-barred safari adventure holiday in Africa or a sailing holiday to the stunning Galapagos Islands.
