elite traveler MAR/APR 2015 ISSUE 2 21

WELCOME THE PRIVATE JET LIFESTYLE MAGAZINE

Adventure travel. Two words that conjure up distant, exotic locations and wild, adrenaline- fueled weekends. Whether it’s a night spent under the stars in a luxurious tent or a dramatic dive between tectonic plates, in this issue we push the boundaries. This is no less than Elite Traveler readers have come to expect. The editorial team has been out and about searching the world, from the remote wilds of Patagonia to previously unexplored parts of the Himalayas, to bring together an issue with all the adventure of an action movie. Fancy a trip into the heart of a volcano? Or to scale a previously unclimbed peak (and so name it for yourself)? Then read on. But while high-end travelers like to experience extremes of adventure, you also want to do it in style. So we’ve rounded up our top 10 luxury tented camps, picked out the top suites in the exotic city of Istanbul and paid a visit to New Zealand’s South Island, home to Queenstown, the so-called “adventure capital of the world”. If you think there’s an activity or adventure we missed, we’d love to hear from you. Email us with your favorite adventures at editorial@elitetraveler.com.
