A comfortable adventure
Adventure is something from when you were young. Backpack, dog-eared travel guide, budgeted train ticket and then see where the wind takes you. But even when you are older and richer, the adventure continues, only more comfortably.

JOURNEY TO THE BOTTOM OF THE EARTH
Adventure is something from when you were young. Backpack, peeling travel guide, budgeted train ticket and then see where the wind blows you. But even when you are older and richer, the adventure continues, only more comfortably. No more nights under the open sky or a too heavy backpack, but luxury camping at an ultimate bucket list destination. White Desert flies you to the South Pole for a week for $53.000 per person. The gin and tonic served as an aperitif in the dining tent is cooled by ten-thousand-year-old ice and the sleeping tents have heating and running water. By the way, that $53.000 is an entry-level price. For $250.000 you can't go wrong, and you can land on the ice plain in a private jet from Cape Town and you can hike to your heart's content and crawl through ice tunnels and abseil off ice cliffs and cruise around on spiked bicycles and windsurf and bond with penguins or just have fun. reading a book in front of your tent with a ten thousand year old gin and tonic in your hand.
LXRY LIST
The annual LXRY List 2022 booklet takes a look into the distance, where new opportunities dawn. Doing business with a view to a better world. Rewilding Europe is committed to saving lost animal species by making room for truly wild nature. And De Apostelhoeve is taking advantage of the warming by growing wine on the Limburg hills and gaining international recognition for it. In addition to these budding economies, attention is also paid to sustainable initiatives. Such as the new Tank Must from Cartier, a watch that runs on solar energy. And a lamp against light pollution. But the list also includes an over-the-top hotel stay in Versailles Palace. Après nous, le déluge? No, but there should also be room to enjoy and experience in the new world.
