Even the most diligent CEOs need a break from work. But unlike a typical employee, most CEOs prefer to splurge on holidays worth their time and money. They would love to visit places that offer the best travel experience, something that can make the most of their holiday break, even for a short period. So, here are the top 5 incredible experiences for traveling CEOs to consider.
Cruise the Galapagos Islands
CEOs who want to visit a unique destination should consider booking a luxury cruise to the Galapagos Islands. The archipelago lies on the coast of Ecuador and consists of over a hundred islands. But what makes it popular is the incredible wildlife species that dwell on the islands, which inspired Charles Darwin’s Evolution Theory. During your cruise of the Galapagos, you’ll have a chance to witness species not found anywhere else on Earth.
Exploring The Galapagos Islands on a cruise is an experience you’ll never forget. During the cruise, you’ll embark on guided excursions, such as hiking to the islands in search of wildlife. Among those you can encounter during your hike are marine iguanas, giant tortoises, and different kinds of birds. You can also embark on snorkeling excursions to discover the archipelago’s colorful marine life. The waters of the Galapagos Islands are home to an incredible variety of sea creatures, from reef fish to manta rays, sharks, and whales!
You will visit many different islands during your Galapagos cruise, including inhabited islands like Santa Cruz and Isabela. Each day offers new adventures with a team of naturalists as your guide who will share insights about the archipelago. It’s an adventurous and educational cruise that many CEOs will enjoy, especially when they share the experience with their loved ones.
Visit the F1 in Singapore
Singapore is a world of architectural wonders where lush greenery and incredible skyscrapers coexist. It’s a destination guaranteed to delight every visitor, including CEOs. For a truly unforgettable experience, schedule your visit during the F1 race. Seeing the F1 in Singapore is especially recommended for CEOs who love fast cars. Several other F1 races also happen in other fascinating countries worldwide, and CEOs can get tickets for these races depending on the place they wish to visit.
During your visit to Singapore, expect to see towering skyscrapers and modern shopping malls with luxury boutiques. When you are tired of shopping, head to Little India for a feast of authentic Indian cuisines like chicken tikka masala and samosas.
For a breath of fresh air, visit the National Orchid Garden, a stunning oasis with colorful displays of thousands of exotic flowers. You should also not miss the chance to discover Gardens of the Bay, a nature park featuring futuristic floral displays. Walk to the Marina Bay Sands nearby, one of Singapore’s most iconic landmarks. The luxury hotel has a shopping mall, restaurant, and cafes.
See the Mountain Gorillas in Rwanda
Another ideal destination for CEOs who love wildlife is Rwanda, where you can trek to lush jungles and have a face-to-face encounter with mountain gorillas – a life-changing travel experience! You will be with a guide as you hike the jungles where the gentle giants live. After tracking the gorillas, they will let you spend at least an hour with them, observing them in their natural habitat.
All gorilla trekking activities in Rwanda are in the Volcanoes National Park, one of the country’s four national game parks and home to 30% of the world’s population of mountain gorillas. Aside from the gorillas, you could see other species during your treks, such as African elephants, golden monkeys, giant forest hogs, bushbucks, and more.
You will begin your journey early in the morning. There’s a briefing session before the trek, where rangers will share information about the park and how you can stay safe, especially when you come face to face with the primates. After a short briefing, they will divide you into groups and give you a walking stick and other essentials you need for the trek. It’s not an easy trek, but worth it.
Experience a Group Expedition in Mongolia
Adventurous CEOs should experience a group expedition in Mongolia. Boasting vast steppes, desert plains, and mountains, Mongolia is one of the countries with the lowest population densities. As such, the country has many wide, open spaces, which you can discover during your expedition.
If you love the thrill of discovering remote places, you will find many other excellent world expeditions. You can climb the mountains of Kyrgyzstan, traverse the desert of Sudan, or trek the Hidden Himalayas of Bhutan. Joining these unique expeditions is a fascinating way to discover some of the world’s lesser-known destinations without the hassles of planning the trip yourself.
On your group expedition to Mongolia, you will also have the chance to ride a horse. Mongolian horses are an integral part of the local culture, used by nomadic tribes. Explore Mongolia’s incredible wilderness and national park while riding the horse and discover local traditions as you visit local villages and sleep in a traditional yurt.
Go Snorkeling in Bora Bora
Bora Bora is one of the world’s most beautiful places renowned for its breathtaking landscapes, white sandy beaches with clear turquoise waters, and sunny weather, making it a perfect destination for CEOs looking to unwind in paradise. Whether you want to explore the world’s most beautiful beaches, indulge in water sports with your family, or spend a romantic holiday with a partner, Bora Bora offers an incredible travel experience.
Bora Bora’s relaxing ambiance means your holiday will be all about pure relaxation. You can spend the entire day lying by the beach, reading a good book, drinking cocktails, and enjoying the stunning scenery. Of course, there are also opportunities for water sports, such as snorkeling with tropical fish, sharks, and stingrays.
CEOs who want to indulge in the lap of luxury can stay at luxurious overwater bungalows equipped with upscale amenities, such as a private pool and Jacuzzi.
