Running a business can be stressful, which is why even the most successful CEOs will take time off and travel to some faraway destinations to relax and unwind. Getting away from the daily grind is good for mental health, helping you make the best business decisions. Now, the question is – where should CEOs travel? If you need ideas, here are the top luxury CEO travel experiences around the world.

A Private Villa in Kauai

CEOs seeking to venture into a remote island for fresh air should head to Kauai, where they will find stunning geological beauty and rich cultural history. The Garden Isle ticks off everything you seek in a relaxing holiday – gorgeous beaches, otherworldly landscapes, scenic hikes, and luxury resorts.

Kauai’s beaches are not as crowded as those beaches you’ll find on the more popular islands in Hawaii. You can sunbathe with fewer distractions and explore colourful corals and incredible marine life all to yourself. Some of the island’s most popular beaches are Poipu Beach, Polihale State Park, and Tunnels Beach. Hiking is a great stress reliever, and you’ll find many opportunities to enjoy scenic hikes in Kauai. One of the most popular paths for hiking is the Kalalau Trail. Although it’s a bit of an effort to conquer, the breathtaking views will make the adventure well worth it. Be prepared to work up a sweat in the entire 22-mile roundtrip.

Kauai exudes a small-town charm with a relaxing, laid-back vibe. Unlike the other islands crowded with tourists, Kauai managed to maintain its sleepy town feel, and you can guarantee a relaxing holiday here. While it doesn’t have large chain hotels, you’ll find luxury villas to rent in Kauai, perfect for CEOs looking for upscale accommodation options.

Hosted Dining Experience in France 

If you’re fond of delectable food and wine, consider a hosted dining experience in France. It’s an all-encompassing elegant dining experience hosted by some of the world’s leading chefs. An immersive culinary journey, the hosted dining experience will take you on an unforgettable gastronomic adventure where you will learn more about French cuisine and get up close and personal with a world-famous chef.

One of the hosted dining experiences to try in France is a fine dining experience with the famous Iron Chef Dominique Crenn  in Massignac, France. Dominique Crenn is a world-renowned chef famous for her dazzling interpretations of French cuisine. When you join this culinary event, you’ll embark on a five-day dining experience at the rolling countryside of Cognac as you witness Dominique Crenn’s culinary creations and listen to artistic conversations. You will be staying in the lovely French château of Domaine des Étangs.

You can combine your hosted dining experience with a sightseeing tour of Cognac, a lovely town in Southwest France known for its luxurious spirits. The small town is home to impressive architecture, friendly locals, and great restaurants, including the Dyades restaurant of Domaine des Etangs.

Cruise on the Galapagos Islands

The Galapagos Islands are a long-desired and dream destination for many travellers, especially those fond of wildlife. No other place on Earth can compare to this fascinating archipelago. CEOs who want to experience incredible wildlife encounters should consider visiting the Galapagos Islands.

The best way to explore the archipelago and discover its stunning wonders is to book a luxury yacht cruise. Offering guests excellent comfort and top-notch luxury, it features upscale amenities like spacious accommodations, Jacuzzis, restaurants, and more. For a more personalised experience, you can book smaller cruise ships that will allow a more personalised interaction with a local guide.

While most visitors who come to the Galapagos are here to see the wildlife, the archipelago’s pristine beaches are another reason why visitors flock to this stunning place. Most of the beaches are secluded, allowing you to lie down and relax away from the tourist crowds. You’ll find long stretches of fine white sand on almost every island in the Galapagos, but the best ones are Gardner Bay on Espanola Island and Cormorant Point Beach on Floreana Island.

Museums and Art in New York 

CEOs who are into culture and arts should head to New York. The Big Apple is home to some of the world’s best museums and galleries. In addition, it is one of the most cultural cities in the world for international business meetings, giving you opportunities to network with other business executives.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art should be on your list of museums to see in New York. It houses one of the largest artwork collections in the United States, with exhibits ranging from ancient Egypt artefacts to modern art pieces. The Brooklyn Museum, an art museum housed in a magnificent building, is another museum worth a visit. It’s the second-largest museum in the city, featuring vast collections of about 1.5 million paintings and sculptures from Europe, Africa and Asia.

The Jack Hanley Gallery, which lies in the heart of Manhattan’s Lower East Side, is a fantastic place to visit for contemporary art. Aside from the unique exhibitions, the art gallery also features publications and limited-edition posters.

A Safari Trip in Tanzania

A luxury safari trip in Tanzania is something that CEOs should experience. Aside from exploring national parks where you get up close and personal with some of the world’s most incredible animals, your luxury safari in Tanzania will include staying at posh accommodations with top-notch facilities and personalised service.

Tanzania’s safari parks are vast and unfenced. Big and small animals roam freely across the park, so it’s common to see some animals visiting your luxury lodge. You’ll also hear lions roaring from a distance, which makes for a truly unforgettable experience.

With a luxury safari, you will be with expert guides who can track animals and even take you to “secret spots” in the park where you can enjoy beautiful sights! In addition, you will be riding in custom-designed safari vehicles for utmost comfort. Aside from having huge windows, these vehicles have a pop-up roof and spacious legroom.
