Luxury touring holidays

Our World for tailor-made tours

A collection of our most beloved destinations and their loveliest lodgings that introduce visitors to a world outside of their own.

Our World for tailor-made tours

A collection of our most beloved destinations and their loveliest lodgings that introduce visitors to a world outside of their own.

Dedicated to the places that feed our travel curiosity, the adventures that lie beyond the gateway of a new country, and to the local people who welcome us as one of their own and make it all possible. It is human nature to explore. From fictional odysseys to real-life romanticism, our past is brimming with tales of unearthing new customs and getting to know ways of life so different from back home. Our love of travel has grown and grown, but while transport may now be easier and accommodation more luxurious, the appeal of discovering these tempting cultures and opening the gates to countries that demand to be explored in extraordinary ways endures. 

We’re talking the likes of road trips along the bronzed Californian coast, riding the railways weaving through Canada’s snowy peaks, seeking nature in the luscious forests of Sri Lanka or embarking on multi-country tours through Asia – even adventures on the doorstep like island hopping in the Mediterranean or casting off altogether on a cruise far and wide. Wherever in the world it is, each country and its inhabitants have a story they’re itching to tell, and once one story is told, even the dedicated beachcombers are compelled to find out where it originates from.

A little connection
goes a long way

But while the wildlife is diverse, the architecture a sight to behold and the food an explosion of concoctions never tasted, truly connecting with a destination lies in the little details. The cheeky smile from a little one on the train; the local guide who introduces all their favourite foodie spots only the townspeople know; the blessing of prosperity from a monk; and even the far-flung companion, brought here by the same compelling itch to experience something new.  

Connections are found when touring the globe, and although the famous sites are always a must when visiting somewhere new, it’s the artfully crafted adventures, local influences and a pinch of curiosity that make these unknown lands feel a little more homely.

Explore by destination

Dedicated to the places that feed our travel curiosity, whether it be a cruising along the coast with the top down on the Pacific Coast, sailing between Caribbean islands, or the perfect alpine adventure in Switzerland’s fresh mountain air.

  • A group of elephants stands near a waterhole in a savanna with acacia trees and a clear sky.
    Africa

    It’s as though Mother Nature couldn’t decide which environs she loved most. A land of colour and contrasts. Deep red skies, dazzling white sands and clear blue waters; chic cities and thrilling safari encounters – Africa stirs the senses and the soul.  

    Take me there
  • A person stands on top of a sand dune in a desert with footprints leading up to the peak under a clear blue sky.
    Arabia & Indian Ocean

    You’d be hard pressed to find anywhere else on Earth that brings the same level of exquisitely clashing landscapes straight out of a sci-fi novel than cutting-edge Arabia. Past where the Arabian Sea becomes the wider ocean, expanses of glittery bath-warm waters surround the comforting soft sands of the Maldives and the Seychelles – aka the quintessential holiday ideal.

    Take me there
  • A multi-tiered pagoda-like temple is reflected in calm water, surrounded by greenery and misty mountains.
    Asia

    Because some places are just worthy of the long-haul. A continent as diverse as it is captivating, venturing further afield – for cherry-blossom season sojourns to palatial wonders of the world – is as enchanting as it is eye opening.

    Take me there
  • A koala sitting in a eucalyptus tree, surrounded by green leaves and branches.
    Australasia

    A voyage to this far-flung corner of the world is nothing short of surprising at every turn. Where Australia’s land is scarlet, New Zealand’s is undeniably verdant.

    Take me there
  • A narrow rectangular window in a whitewashed wall frames a view of pink bougainvillea flowers, a white ceramic pot, and a blue door.
    Europe

    For a small continent, Europe certainly packs a punch. Infinite in its appeal, it’s the history rooted so deeply within the celebrated cities, sun-soaked coasts and bucolic countrysides that makes Europe utterly timeless.

    Take me there
  • A group of surfers riding and waiting for waves in the ocean during sunset.
    North America & Caribbean

    There’s no sitting still in North America; in fact, it could turn the most docile of travellers into get-up-and-goers. You’d be forgiven for thinking the excitement subsides over on the Caribbean Islands, but it’s not all idyllic landscapes, lashings of rum, take-it-easy vibes and tales of buried pirate treasure.

    Take me there
  • Aerial view of the stern of a Silversea cruise ship sailing through the ocean, leaving a trail of white water behind it.
    Cruises

    Navigating the cruise scene is no mean feat; from the well-established luxuries of an ocean-going ship or private yacht to the niche explorations of expedition and river voyages, cruises take on many forms.

    Take me there
  • A glamourous woman in a white suit stands on a train against a railing, holding a drink, with lush green palm trees in the background.
    Rail journeys

    There’s something about the luxury lifestyle that naturally leans towards slow travel. In a world that tends to air on the side of efficiency, there’s a slight hint of rebellion hidden along the scenic route.

The Carrier difference

Whether it’s access to the most prestigious suites in the world’s best hotels, securing a private jet to attend the Grand Prix, polar bear trekking with elite expedition leaders or an escape to your very own Maldivian private island, all elements of your Carrier holiday are planned to perfection.

  • Two men in traditional attire herd a large group of goats in a dry, grassy field with mountains and palm trees in the background under a golden sky.
    Relationships count

    We’re in search of embracing a way of life outside of our own; discovering the new, experiencing the genuine and falling in love with a destination. And to truly do that means looking beyond the ‘authentic experiences’ and instead into the faces of the authentic people. It’s their countries that make these guides to the remote, the wonderful, and the eccentric – and to get under the skin of a destination is to get to know them like we do. 

  • Travel in style

    From super yacht charters hopping between low profile islands, or taking the slow and scenic bird’s-eye route by hot air balloon to hair blowing in the wind behind the wheel of a classic convertible cruising the Pacific Coast Highway. We’re firm believers in experiencing a place to its full potential – and that can mean more than a simple car ride. 

  • A luxurious rooftop infinity pool with a plush seating area overlooking a Dubai city skyline.
    Upgrade me

    Private jet tours. VIP meet and greet. First and Business Class comforts. The finest and most opulent rail routes. Premium travel and world-class living are what we do best – they're our speciality. So, when it comes to quality, comfort and elegance, we’re here to inspire and advise, refine the options and make it happen. 

  • Cast off with confidence

    Just like our holidays, our cruises are tailor-made for you, formed around the diverse itineraries put forward by our most trusted partners to create a bespoke journey every time. Refining the options and overseeing the little things like flight routes and private transfers. Helping you start how you mean to go on and end on a high with the loveliest pre- and post-cruise lodgings and exclusive experiences designed around you.

Your escape begins the moment your chauffeur-driven car pulls up ready to take you to the airport with Emirates.

Whether you're sipping a Moët & Chandon in the Emirates Lounge, sinking into your own private suite in the sky, or unwinding with a regionally inspired menu, comfort and indulgence travel with you. Think fully flat beds, shower spas at 40,000 feet, gourmet dining whenever it suits, and even a lounge onboard to stretch your legs – because with Emirates, the journey is just as luxurious as the stay. 

Emirates flies from airports across the UK to destinations throughout Africa, Asia and the Pacific, the Americas, Europe and Arabia, with daily flights to Dubai out of three London airports, Manchester, Birmingham, Newcastle, Edinburgh and Glasgow.

Carrier cares

You don’t have to throw away your passport to be a more conscious and considered traveller; there are other ways to support the environments and communities we visit. 

 

Here at Carrier, we recognise our responsibility to help protect the habitats, cultural sites and communities we see on our travels. We’re committed to championing animal welfare, advocating for human rights, and of course, reducing our carbon footprint, while also working with organisations that are very dear to us – Professors Without Borders, Destination Florida and Uthando. We still have so much to learn, but we hold our corporate and social responsibilities at the heart of everything we do, in the hope that others will do the same.
