RASK Travel

Some places are best reached slowly. Others involve a light aircraft, an expedition ship, a few border crossings or one of the world’s great trains.

Crossing Bhutan with a private guide. Sailing through the Galápagos. Travelling from Paris to Istanbul aboard the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express. Or heading south to Antarctica.

For our clients, the extraordinary often lies in how these journeys are put together: the right people on the ground, exceptional places to stay, seamless logistics and experiences that aren’t always found on an itinerary.

On the RASK Journal, we’ve shared eight Incredible Journeys, with our notes on where to stay, who to travel with and how we’d piece each one together.

We have a bit of a soft spot for Rosewood Hotels & Resorts

As proud Rosewood Elite partners, we’ve stayed at some brilliant ones over the years – from São Paulo and Mandarina to London, Paris and Amsterdam – and there are plenty more we have our eye on.

Venice, Rome, Milan, Crete and Dubai are all on the way, each with something very different up its sleeve.

So, we’ve pulled together the Rosewoods we love, the new openings worth knowing about, and what booking through RASK can add to your stay.

Where are our RASK VIPs? 🇨🇦

This week, one lovely couple have checked into Rosewood Hotel Georgia in Vancouver for a few days of exploring one of Canada’s most vibrant cities.

Originally opened in 1927, Rosewood Hotel Georgia remains one of Vancouver’s most iconic addresses. Sitting in the heart of downtown, it’s perfectly placed for wandering the waterfront, cycling through Stanley Park, exploring Gastown and returning each evening for cocktails and live jazz at the hotel’s legendary 1927 Lobby Lounge.

As Rosewood Elite partners, we’re also delighted our guests will enjoy a host of VIP benefits throughout their stay, including daily breakfast, hotel credit, priority for upgrades, early check-in, late check-out and personalised recognition from the Rosewood team.

Thanks so much for travelling RASK. ✨

A huge thank you to Orient Express and Accor Group for the most spectacular few days aboard the all-new Orient Express Corinthian. To say I was impressed would be an understatement.

Our journey took us from Marseille to Monaco, via Cassis and Saint-Tropez, with the French Riviera providing a rather jaw-dropping backdrop throughout. As for the yacht itself... it’s unlike anything I’ve experienced before.

We’re incredibly proud of our relationship with Accor. As Accor Preferred Partners, our RASK VIPs enjoy exclusive privileges across their exceptional portfolio, including complimentary upgrades (where available), hotel credits, VIP recognition and a host of additional benefits designed to make every stay that little bit more special.

I’ve shared my full write-up over on the RASK Journal, covering everything from the itinerary and onboard experience to what’s included, plus a few thoughts for anyone considering a voyage of their own.

We had the loveliest week in Mallorca as a family this May.

A few games of UNO, plenty of pool time, a pedal boat adventure, more than one white sangria, and two very different hotels: Kimpton Hotels & Restaurants Aysla Mallorca and Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts Mallorca at Formentor.

The trip was a timely reminder of why Mallorca remains one of our favourite destinations in Europe. Easy flights, beautiful beaches, excellent hotels, and something for every generation.

Jonas has shared a few thoughts from the trip over on the RASK Journal.

From Barbados to Antigua, and St. Barts to Anguilla, the Caribbean has a way of making us exhale.

There’s nothing quite like the soft sands, warm hospitality, and divine cuisine that define this part of the world.

With Cannes Film Festival in full swing, it’s only right that we share some of our favourite places to eat, sleep and explore along the Côte d’Azur.

Think legendary Riviera hotels, beach clubs reached by boat, understated seaside restaurants, and sun-drenched corners of the coastline where the world’s most discerning travellers return every summer.

From Cannes and Cap d’Antibes to Monaco and Saint-Tropez, explore the full guide on the RASK Journal: https://rasktravel.com/where-to-eat-sleep-explore-on-the-cote-dazur-during-cannes-film-festival/

If you travel often enough, you realise fairly quickly that luxury travel isn’t really about thread counts or whether a hotel has a marble bathroom anymore.

The difference is usually in the perspective behind the booking. Understanding how someone actually likes to travel. Knowing when a destination is right for them – and when it isn’t. Having people on the ground you trust. Recognising which experiences genuinely shape a trip, and which ones are probably best left to Instagram.

That’s a huge part of what we spend our time doing at RASK – travelling, researching, listening, refining, and staying close to the people and places shaping travel globally.

We’ve started sharing a little more of that world through the RASK Journal and our newsletter lately, for those who enjoy following along with the hotels, destinations, and ideas shaping how people travel now.

Orient Express has officially taken to the sea – and it’s not doing things by halves.

The new Orient Express Corinthian is the largest sailing yacht in the world, with its maiden voyage set to depart in June 2026 across the Mediterranean – from the French Riviera and Corsica to Sardinia, Capri, and the Italian coast – carrying just 110 guests, wind-powered sails, Michelin-led dining and itineraries that feel more like a series of perfectly timed moments than a cruise schedule.

We’ve just covered everything you need to know – the jaw-dropping design, onboard life, and the sailings we’re most excited about.

Safe to say… this one isn’t subtle.

The full story is now live on the RASK Journal: https://rasktravel.com/inside-the-orient-express-corinthian-sailing-yacht/

For more than a century, the name Orient Express has conjured images of lacquered wood, polished brass, white tablecloths and journeys where the experience of travelling mattered just as much as the destination itself. Now, that legacy is heading out to sea. Officially christened in France on 29 Apr...

May has always felt like one of the best times to travel. Things start opening up again, the weather settles into something you actually want to be in, and you’re not quite dealing with the pace that comes a few weeks later.

We’ve pulled together a few destinations that stand out for us right now – from the Cyclades to Peru and a few in between.

The full list is up on the RASK Journal: https://rasktravel.com/nine-of-the-loveliest-destinations-to-visit-in-may/
