5 Destinations to Explore this Easter

The Easter Holidays are fast approaching and with the world opening its borders, now is the perfect time to book a new adventure.  Whether you prefer the icy cold temperatures of Iceland or the exotic tropical beaches of Costa Rica, Jet Luxe will get you there. In collaboration with Cookson Adventure, we’re sharing our top 5 recommendations.  

ICELAND – Ultimate Isolation and adventure

Cookson and Jet Luxe delivered some of the grandest trips the country has ever seen; and even more so since the borders have re-opened. Remote lodges are some of the most popular places to “escape” to and travelers looking for a little more adventure can also SUP (stand up paddle board) with whales, quad bike across black sand beaches, dive with guillemots and helicopter overactive volcanoes whilst admiring thunderous waterfalls and erupting geysers. At the end of your action-packed days, rest-up in confidential, geothermally heated hot springs.

INDONESIA – Phinisi Sailing Cruise and Island-hopping Stays

Spread over 17,500 islands, Indonesia’s appeal ranges from Balinese paradises and Java’s ancient temple complexes to remote surfers’ islands perfect for encountering wildlife. You will only need to choose between staying in tented camps, designer private estates, or on a traditional phinisi sailing ship, winding between limestone island mazes to dive with mantas and take in warring Komodo dragons.

COSTA RICA – Via Land, Air and Sea

With access to private jets, helicopters, off-market lodges and a leading deep-diving vessel, this is the definitive adventure for a country blessed with truly unique wildlife and landscapes.  Soar over its active volcanoes by helicopter, accompanied by an expert volcanologist and reach otherwise-inaccessible mountain biking routes. On land, explore the rainforest on a night hike and off-road through remote villages. Exploring the ocean is no less thrilling, free dive with a professional and swim alongside thousand-strong megapods of dolphins. Nights will be spent in Costa Rica’s most exclusive off-grid eco-lodges, wilderness retreats and beachfront hideaways.

NORTHERN NORWAY – An Arctic Adventure

Norway, known for its fjord-cut coastline, wild mountains and vast stretches of serene, postcard perfect landscapes, is one of our favorite outdoor playgrounds for adventure. Sail along its dramatic coastline, search for migrating orcas with our marine experts or simply immerse yourself in the life of the indigenous Sami people. With longer days to explore Lofoten’s peaks, fjords and sea, we can design an action-packed adventure across the archipelago. Begin at 12,000 feet with a skydive into the mountains, touching down to paddle board and hike your way to a mountain cabin. Finally, helicopter, swim and kayak to a rustic hut to try your hand at spearfishing for a celebratory dinner under the stars.

MOROCCO – A Desert Tradition

Morocco’s desert traditions and medieval labyrinths provide a sensuous backdrop to some truly unique adventures across its desert wilds and mountain remotes. Along the way, stay in the most impressive riads in Marrakech, entirely exclusive camps in the desert and the very best private mountain retreat in the Atlas Mountains. Take to the air at sunrise on an expertly piloted paramotor or balloon ride to experience the brilliance of the desert’s dawn colors before visiting a traditional Berber village to sample the food from one of the region’s best local cooks and learn about mountain life. From 4×4 races across the sand dunes to immersive treasure hunts in Marrakech’s famous souks, we bring the ancient culture and colors of Morocco vividly to life.

In summary, as we predicted, in “Our 7 Luxury Travel Trends of 2022”, there is a huge resumption of luxury travel. We predicted that “revenge travel” would be a massive trend with people making up for “lost” time and ready to resume wanderlust activity.  At Jet Luxe, we specialize in out-of-this-world luxury travel with ultra-personalization at every step.  We look forward to flying you somewhere beautiful this Easter so you can make some amazing new memories.
