Around the world in 60 days: The ultimate luxury travel experience

Butterfield & Robinson

Recent travel trends suggest travelers are seeking inspiration through entertainment. Thanks to Guy Ritchie’s Fountain of Youth, starring John Krasinski and Natalie Portman, travelers are now hopping aboard the “around the world” travel trend. Data from Spate suggests that social media views on videos related to travel around the world have increased by 20% this quarter, with an average weekly view of 79.6 million.

Additionally, the search term “trip around the world” has increased by 5% this past quarter, indicating that travelers are interested in continent-hopping. Building on this trend concept, Butterfield & Robinson has launched a new “60-Day Around the World” trip that seamlessly blends luxury, culture, and conscious travel into a single journey.

About the 60-Day Around the World Trip

The once-in-a-lifetime 60-day trip will take travelers to six destinations across four continents — all within just 60 days. In honor of the brand’s 60th anniversary, this celebration trip focuses on the regions they love and the people who bring them to life. Travelers on this journey will have the opportunity to experience the world through a variety of immersive cultural moments, breathtaking active excursions, and indulgent cuisine. The brand’s experience designers have carefully crafted each journey.

The first of the six destinations on this around-the-world trip kicks off in Oaxaca, followed by Cambodia and Vietnam, India, Morocco, Turkey, and ending in Burgundy. Guests can also book each destination as a separate excursion if joining the 60-day adventure seems a bit too daring.

Oaxaca

At this kick-off location, travelers can immerse themselves in Zapotec culture and explore its unique landscapes. From legendary mezcal tastings at the renowned Casa Silencio to visiting the 2,000-year-old Cypress, El Árbol del Tule, this destination kicks off the around-the-world trip with rich culture.

Mekong and Hoi An

Travelers will begin in Cambodia and board a luxurious boat to sail the Mekong. Along the way, they’ll tour local farms, bike alongside canals, visit floating markets, and even eat dinner at the home of a local chef.

India

Next, travelers will stay in RAAS Jodhpur, a restored palace, and visit Rajasthan’s leopard sanctuary, Suján Jawai. The Indian experience also immerses travelers in the culture by visiting local workshops to learn more about the community and art in the city.

Morocco

In Morocco, travelers will spend time in the desert and explore the Atlas Mountains. A travel guide will navigate travelers through the mountain, educating them about the 2023 earthquake and its impacts on the region. Visitors will learn about the community’s resilience and how they’ve rebuilt since.

Turkey

Next stop: Ancient Turkey. Here, travelers will wander Istanbul’s bazaars, ride in a balloon over Cappadocia’s fairy chimneys, and bike along the Aegean coast. The Turkey experience also includes sunset feasts amid ancient temples and private yacht swims, for a blend of adventure with a dash of luxury.

Burgundy

Ending in Burgundy, the around-the-world trip concludes with a visit to Butterfield & Robinson’s friends and family (where the company began). Here, travelers can enjoy exclusive visits with boutique winemakers, learn the art of barrel making, and savor farm-to-table local cuisine.

Cafe Charmant, The Corner Store Crew’s Latest, Puts Food Ahead of the Scene
Clothing, Long Sleeve, Sleeve

I’ll be honest. If I weren’t a writer, there is no way in hell I could have landed a 7:15 Saturday night reservation at Cafe Charmant just a mere four weeks after its opening. The most recent jewel in the buzzy Catch Hospitality Group’s crown, the glitzy eatery is the newest IT restaurant to hit the downtown scene, so chalk it up to one of the perks of the job that I could walk in, order a drink, and be ushered to a corner table for two in under 10 minutes.

Though the state of making prime reservations in New York City may not come as a surprise to many, I’m still not able to reconcile with the current velvet rope of so many of this city’s restaurants. Sure, the 90s and early 2000’s had their Indochine, Moomba (if you remember that one, we need to grab a drink). The Waverly Inn, but for the most part, you could easily make a reservation or even walk in and wait for a table with a cocktail in hand at most popular establishments. And, let’s be honest, half the people weren’t even eating, if you know what I mean.

A tasting guide to Livermore Valley, California’s friendliest wine country
Adult, Male, Man

Livermore Valley sits in Northern California’s East Bay, where the hustle and bustle of neighboring Oakland and San Francisco give way to grassy rolling hills, big open skies, and over 40 tasting rooms. The region is home to some of the best wines I’ve tasted in the state, without the pretense and rigidity I’ve come to expect from other tasting rooms in the region.

And thanks to the valley’s marine-influenced winds, varied climate, and diverse soils, I tasted an unusually broad range of wines. Crisp whites, structured reds, and everything in between seem to be able to find their footing here.
