More wealthy travelers are going on luxury safaris — some for more than $2,500 a day

As much as I love visiting new places—and I really do love it—nothing disrupts my healthy habits quite like travel. Going on a trip often means taking a red-eye or navigating a time zone change that disturbs my sleep schedule; a change in my typical diet; and a whole lot of pre-travel stress. This doesn't mean I'm going to cut back on travel or skip the gelato when I'm in Florence, but it does mean I'm eager to find ways to make staying on top of my health easier when I travel and when I return home, too. Enter: the popular Oura Ring.

American Airlines is expanding new technology that ensures travelers board with their designated groups ahead of the busy holiday travel season.

There's a lot of pressure when it comes to a safari vacation.

I woke up at 2 a.m. to slamming doors, followed by six pairs of sleepy footsteps. Even though it was summer in Burgenland, Austria, no warmth reached us during those early hours. Yet, between our laughter and singing, we barely noticed.

Not long ago, I made a return visit to Baha Mar, the luxury über-resort in the Bahamas, for an industry conference. Despite all the meetings, presentations, and panel discussions, I still found time to get a little sand between my toes, eat conch prepared several different ways, and, best of all, hug a flamingo. (No joke!) And it wasn't just the sunshine and brilliant blue water that I soaked up while there—it was also the positive energy of hundreds of families and couples who'd come with no agenda other than to lie on a beach chair with a book, plummet down a waterslide, enjoy a tropical cocktail, and generally have fun. Even though I was going a mile a minute the whole time, I still felt my heart rate slow, my shoulders unknot.

In a holiday promotion to end them all, one cruise line is giving away a sailing that lasts more than 120 days and visits dozens of countries. If you've ever dreamed of setting sail on a world cruise, Holland America's latest contest, which kicks off in early December, is one you won't want to miss.

Eric Ripert is almost known as much for his globetrotting as he is for his cooking. The French-born, New York City-based chef—whose Manhattan restaurant Le Bernardin continues to rack up accolades as one of the best in the world—is no stranger to an airport lounge, ideally while transiting to one of his favorites places in Asia, as he’s told Condé Nast Traveler in the past. One city he keeps on going back to? Seoul, which he has visited five times in the past 15 years. “Seoul has the pressure of being so close to North Korea, so people really enjoy every day as much as they can,” says Ripert. “They work hard and play hard, and that really manifests in its dining scene. But it’s also a city of contrast. You have these super high energy restaurants that are very edgy, sitting side by side with peaceful tea houses.”

As the Toyota Land Cruiser begins its trek up to TAASA Lodge in the northern part of Tanzania's Serengeti National Park, the sound of voices grows louder and louder.

As a frequent traveler with more than 25 cruises under my belt, I've gotten really good at not getting nickeled and dimed by cruise lines
