Top Ten Luxury
Australian Wilderness

One of the blessings of being so remote is that it is possible to find something that is so entirely rare in the rest of the developed world - space. Australia has lots of it; mostly uninhabited, and almost always exceedingly beautiful. Yes, The Luxury Travel Bible has even grown fond of the strangest little critters that accompany nature's package deal here, and is prepared to forgo a few of its usual indulgences just to see them. From in-bed views of heartbreaking desert sunrises over That Red Rock to exploring the underwater world of Ningaloo Reef, The Luxury Travel Bible gives its top takes for luxuriating in wild abandon.
