National Geographic Traveller — The Collection Magazine

2 October 2024

Set off into the wilds on an off-grid, luxury adventure with National Geographic Traveller (UK)’s latest edition of The Collection: Luxury. More and more, well-heeled travellers are opting for far-flung destinations to push their boundaries and broaden their horizons. In this issue, we reveal trips that really push the envelope, from sharpening survival skills in the Scottish Hebrides and seeking true silence in the Mongolian taiga, to surrendering to culture shock in Pakistan’s otherworldly mountains. Elsewhere, take a deep dive into India, a country often associated with backpacking. Look beyond the beach huts, however, and luxury awaits, including private tours of Raj-era palaces and sailing in style through the backwaters of Kerala. Spot polar bears on a discovery cruise deep in the High Arctic, become a marine biologist in the Maldives and discover how to make the most of a long weekend in Italy’s fashion capital, Milan. All this, plus a roundup of the world’s most luxurious resorts, hotels and lodges to aid you in planning your next big trip.
