Treat yourself to something special this year. Embrace big coastal resorts, glamorous river cruises and once-in-a-lifetime experiences with these luxurious Culture Trips.

Everybody deserves a treat now and again. Our philosophy is that if you can do it, do it! Luxury comes in many forms, from dreamy coastal beach resorts to high-class cruises. You might consider a big hotel in a bustling city to be glamorous, or perhaps to you indulgence is all about good food and relaxation. Whatever kind of holiday you choose to go on with Culture Trip, we’ll make sure you’re treated like royalty, but if you really want to amp up the luxury look no further than these pampering adventures.

Ultimate Egypt

You might not think of Egypt immediately when the word luxury comes to mind, but the passion for pampering here didn’t die with the Pharaohs. We’re ready to prove it on our comprehensive nine-day tour, half of which is spent living the good life on an incredible luxury river cruise down the Nile. Lounging on deck, cocktail in hand and sun shining bright, whilst you float past ancient temples and vast stretches of wilderness – now that’s North African luxury in action. We’ll hop off along the way for a shopping spree in a local souk, a candlelit visit to Luxor Temple and a kayaking adventure down the Nile.

Blissful Bali

A lot of backpackers do Bali on a bit of a budget. There are plenty of hostels, cheap food and transport, not to mention a vibrant party culture. Injecting a bit of glamour into this Indonesian paradise, however, gives it a whole new dimension. Our 12-day itinerary is the way to do it, immersing you in the local culture and nature, but leaving plenty of time for some pampering along the way. You’ll start the trip at a luxury oceanfront hotel, before visiting temples, swimming in waterfalls and climbing Mount Batur at sunrise. Then we’ll shoot off to the Gili Islands on speedboat, where the stunning Hotel Vila Ombak awaits on Gili Trawangan. You’ll have plenty of time to explore the island and go snorkelling with sea turtles, but don’t forget to make the most of the resort’s stunning pools and excellent spa facilities. Muscles massaged and tan topped-up, we’ll return to the main island to stay at another gorgeous beach resort in Canggu, where you’ll have two more nights to bask in the glorious tropical glamour of Bali.
