Dear Luxury Seeker,
ALL THE PIECES TO THE PERFECT GETAWAY
What is it that makes a vacation not just memorable, but truly extraordinary? Is it an exotic destination?
Gorgeous accommodations? Out-of-this-world service and cuisine?
If you ask me, an extraordinary vacation needs all of these parts, plus one more — a truly great
travel professional.
Our luxury travel advisors are among the world’s most knowledgeable in the industry, drawing upon
their personal experiences and global connections to create unparalleled luxury travel adventures with the
greatest possible value to you. Know that you are part of an elite group of travelers with immediate access
to The Affluent Traveler Collection’s global network.
I truly believe luxury is a life experience that we at
The Affluent Traveler
hasten to provide by selecting
just the right places for you to consider visiting next. In this issue we’ll take you to Argentina and Brazil
to visit some of their iconic sites including two new wonders of the world. Next we’ll head to Iceland to
find out what is making this very special country one of the hottest tickets in travel today.
Along the way we’ll find out what’s trending in wellness escapes in Costa Rica, enjoy a cocktail or two
at some of the world’s most beloved hotel bars, and find out what makes the Riviera Maya’s Grand Velas
Riviera Maya resort such an unforgettable escape for all-inclusive luxury.
Finally, in our
Last But Not Least
column, we’ll meet up with Padma Lakshmi,
New York Times
Best-Selling Author and Host/Executive Producer of Bravo’s
Top Chef
, to find out more about her current
adventures and globe-trotting journeys.
All this and much more awaits you in this issue of
The Affluent Traveler
!
Remember, when traveling is done right, it does not matter necessarily where you venture, but that you
return home, a happier, wiser person.
Travel well and often,
Nicolé Mazza
