Bushmans Kloof exceeds our expectations
Michelle Snaddon
Privacy is not a luxury one expects on a family safari, but's possible to book an exclusive farmhouse in the middle of a pristine reserve, which also happens to be home to one of the world's largest open-air art galleries, set among hauntingly beautiful mountains that are millions of years old. Koro Lodge, Bushmans Kloof, South Africa
Romantic tented luxury
Emma Wright
A romantic tented camp and a sighting of the Great Migration in the Serengeti are the ideal ingredients for the ultimate luxury safari, experiencing the Africa that is synonymous with space, wildlife and drama Serengeti Under Canvas, Tanzania
A quintessential luxury safari
Emma Wright
Ngorongoro Crater Lodge is a quintessential luxury safari experience that makes no apologies for its slightly outrageous opulence, one cannot beat the romance and sheer indulgence of this lodge perched on the edge of the stunning Ngorongoro crater rim. Ngorongoro Crater Lodge, Tanzania
Safari in Africa or India?
Emma Wright
Africa is a gut feel. Primal, instinctive and grounded, it comes at you with force and looks you straight in the eye. India fills the heart. Lyrical, mysterious and spiritual it seduces with gestures, moments, joy and duality. African Safari Travel
What's new at Phinda?
Bridget McNulty
Set in prime wilderness area and rare sand forest near Maputaland and the Great St Lucia Wetlands in the northern reaches of KwaZulu-Natal, Phinda's Vlei Lodge has six elegant thatched suites overlooking its own wetland (vlei) that literally teems with wildlife. And if all this is too hard to leave behind, you can now book into The Homestead - their new and very private, exclusive-use villa. Phinda Private Game Reserve, South Africa

Romantic India
Denise Hummel
Whether you're planning a romantic honeymoon, or celebratory luxury family holiday of a lifetime, India has so much to offer. Denise Hummel experiences the most lavish hotels and incredible palaces and is treated like royalty in this land of grand contrasts.
As Denise progresses from Delhi to Agra, and then explores the royal cities of Jaipur, Jodhpur and Udaipur, she discovers that the almost excessive luxury and outstanding service of the hospitality industry in India is crucial to the economy, so that the luxury traveller can relax and enjoy the splendour with a clear conscience, knowing that they are providing vital jobs and a sustainable income to those who need them.
Travel with a conscience.
