Where do you want to spend your winter, snow or sun? Here’s a little inspo to help you decide.

Snow looks like Lapland, with the northern lights overhead, huskies pulling the sled, and a glass-roofed cabin to watch it all from. It looks like St. Moritz, with the classic Alpine glamour and the fur hats to match. It looks like Japan, with the legendary powder and an onsen waiting after.

Sun looks like the Maldives. An overwater bungalow, warm water in January, and the sea right under the floor.

Pick one, or tell us you can’t. We’ve planned plenty of winters that do both.

Iceland in one reel, because the landscapes do the talking.

Waterfalls you can walk behind. Black-sand beaches with basalt columns. Glacier lagoons full of blue ice, ice caves you can only enter in winter, and the northern lights from September through March. Geothermal lagoons where you float in hot water while it snows on your face.

Our favorite way to do it is a private driver-guide along the south coast, with a few nights in the lodges that have changed the game here over the past few years, then a day in Reykjavík for the food.

Which Iceland are you?

Namibia is the country our photographers and our non-photographers agree on. Nothing else on earth looks like it.

Sossusvlei. Some of the tallest dunes in the world, rust-red at sunrise, and the dead camelthorn trees of Deadvlei standing in a white clay pan. Climb Big Daddy before the heat arrives.

The Skeleton Coast. Shipwrecks, fog, seal colonies, and desert-adapted elephants, reached by light aircraft and a handful of lodges.

Damaraland. Rhino tracking on foot and 6,000-year-old rock engravings at Twyfelfontein, in country so empty you can go a day without passing another vehicle.

Etosha. Classic safari around a vast salt pan, where the waterholes do the work and the animals come to you.

Swakopmund. A German-colonial beach town in the dunes with oysters, Black Forest cake, and some of the darkest night skies anywhere, a short drive inland.

Advisor tip: fly-in safaris are the way to do this. Distances are enormous, and the view from the Cessna is half the trip. Ten to twelve days covers it properly. Let's plan it.

Cambodia on your bucket list? Read this before you book.

Angkor is bigger than you think. Angkor Wat at sunrise makes the photo, but you'll remember Ta Prohm wrapped in tree roots, the stone faces of Bayon, and the remote carvings of Banteay Srei. Hire the best guide we can find you, set the 4:30 a.m. alarm once, then go late in the afternoon after the buses have left.

Don’t skip Phnom Penh. The riverside capital has the Royal Palace, a cocktail and dining scene that surprises everyone, and the Khmer Rouge history that explains everything else about the country.

The Mekong is the best way to leave. River cruises run between Siem Reap and Saigon, past floating villages and silk-weaving islands, and they turn a flight into the best part of the trip.

The coast is real. Koh Rong’s private-island beaches, Koh Kong’s mangrove forests, and Kep, where the crab market still sets the lunch menu. Most itineraries miss it. Yours shouldn’t.

The countryside is where the country lives. Kampot pepper farms, Battambang’s bamboo train, and temples with nobody at them.

Advisor tip: November to February is the sweet spot; Cambodia pairs beautifully with Vietnam or Thailand, and Siem Reap’s hotel scene is one of the best in Asia for the money. Reach out, and we’ll build the route around what you want most.

Something worth traveling for, in our opinion? The table.

White truffle season in Piedmont. October through December, Alba’s truffle market opens on weekends, and the restaurants of the Langhe shave them over tajarin and fried eggs with a straight face. Pair with the Barolo and Barbaresco cellars down the road.

The olive harvest around the Mediterranean. November in Puglia, Crete, Andalusia, or Provence means picking in the groves, watching the first press, and tasting oil so green it stings the back of your throat. Nothing in a bottle at home comes close.

Late-autumn w**e country. Harvest is in, the cellars are open, and the crowds are gone. Burgundy, the Douro, Rioja, and Tuscany all look their best in November light.

Markets and the kitchen. Cooking with a nonna in Bologna, a morning in Lyon’s Les Halles, a street-food crawl through Palermo, a kaiseki class in Kyoto.

What meal would you happily cross an ocean for?

A missed connection can affect much more than a flight. There may be a driver expecting you, a hotel arrival to update, and an experience booked for the following day.

When a trip changes, having someone who understands the whole itinerary can help. We can look at how a new plan affects the other arrangements, contact the relevant travel partners, and talk through the available options with you.

Weather and airline decisions are outside anyone’s control. Clear information, realistic next steps and a familiar point of contact still matter.

Before departure, we’ll make sure you know the support arrangements for your trip, including who to contact if plans change.

The question we'd ask before booking a safari: how would you like to spend the time between game drives?

At Elewana Loisaba Tented Camp in Kenya's Laikipia region, the answer offers more than a nap, though the tent and pool make that a respectable choice. Guided walks, camel outings, and a visit to the conservancy's anti-poaching dog unit add different perspectives on the place.

Loisaba protects an important elephant movement corridor. Learning about that landscape gives the wildlife photographs a little more meaning.

This is a great option for travelers who are curious about how a conservancy works as well as what they might see. Ask us about building variety into your safari, with the activities matched to your group.

Group trip planning stalling? Consider a cruise. Not the big kind. This kind.

Windstar’s ships carry about 150 to 340 guests, and that size is the whole point for a group. Here’s why we keep sending people.

Nobody has to pick the restaurant. Star Seeker has five included dining options, including room service, and no assigned seating, so the table grows or shrinks depending on who’s hungry.

Nobody has to drive. Ships this small can visit harbors the big ones sail past. Depending on the port, you’ll walk ashore or take a tender into town.

Nobody has to plan the day. Every ship has a watersports platform off the stern for kayaks, paddleboards, and swimming straight off the back, and three of the ships are actual sailing yachts with masts for anyone who’d rather just watch.

Advisor tip: the Tahiti and Greek Isles sailings are the ones groups come back and repeat.

Send this to the person you’d share a table with at sea.

Want a noticeably better trip? Tell your advisor these five things up front.

Your pace: packed days or slow starts. There's no wrong answer, but there's definitely a wrong itinerary for each.

How much food matters: is dinner the main event of the day or just fuel between sights?

What went wrong on a past trip. This one is gold. One story about a hotel that missed tells us more than any wish list.

Your room priorities: the view, the bathtub, the quiet, the space. Ranked honestly.

And the one moment you're hoping for. A sunrise, a table, a reunion, a first. We build backward from that.

Honest answers in, better trip out. It really is that direct. Save this for your next planning call with us.

Trend alert. Glowcations are one of the most requested trips of the year, and the requests keep coming for 2027.

So what is one? A glowcation is a trip built around skin, rest, and wellness rituals, with the goal of coming home visibly better than when you left. Less sightseeing marathon, more treatments, thermal waters, deep sleep, and good food doing their quiet work.

The destinations doing it best right now include South Korea, for K-beauty facials and bathhouse culture. Thailand, for herbal therapies and some of the finest massage traditions anywhere. And Europe, from Swiss longevity clinics to Italian thermal springs and Greek island wellness retreats.

Advisor note: The top practitioners and signature treatments book out weeks or months ahead, so we secure them before you land. Ready to glow? Message us.
