Ultra-rich people, of course, don't travel like "ordinary mortals." The world's richest people really have completely different travel patterns compared to the rest of the world. Read how the ultra-rich travel.
If in our student years we discovered the world with a backpack on our shoulders, nowadays we travel around to a greater extent with suitcases and choose more respectable accommodation. Preferably by the beach. With good cuisine. This alone seems like the height of pampering.
But when you learn how the richest Earthlings travel, you'll see that their travel patterns are light years away from ours.

Rich people don't flip through copies of Lonely Planet and make their own travel plans. Far from it. They want an experience that will be written on their skin, unique and prepared by those who have enough knowledge and experience.
Many affluent people will pay 50,000 to 100,000 euros before going on vacation, just to have a luxury tour operator plan the ideal vacation for them. From dining in Michelin-starred restaurants to taking part in one-of-a-kind private cultural tours.
A luxury holiday in company
We often imagine that wealthy people travel alone. In a solo performance. But even if they arrive by private jet, that doesn't mean they're traveling alone. Many like to travel in large groups and participate in social activities.
Many have memberships in exclusive private clubs, such as the VIP Casino Club, which caters to gaming and entertainment enthusiasts and brings together affluent travelers with similar interests. Thus, they can use their vacation to meet new people and make business contacts.

Besides wealth, time is another luxury enjoyed by the richest people on earth. A five-day trip to one of the European capitals will of course not be enough, so they often stay at each destination from four weeks to six months.
Only in this way can they fully immerse themselves in the culture and experience the local life.
Excursions with luxury yachts
Yachts offer the wealthiest a great deal of privacy as they hide from prying eyes. Because the wealthy put a lot of effort into creating wealth, they want to spend it in a way that will leave them feeling positive about themselves.
A yacht is an excellent means for this, and in addition to the aforementioned privacy, it allows them to spend time only with their loved ones and create unforgettable memories.

Their private jet still qualifies as a private jet despite the fact that it may not be the largest in the world. The rich and famous are aware of the privilege they have, as they are practically the only individuals for whom the plane does not cause any worries. There are no plane tickets, check-in and similar procedures.
