Known as the "City of Gold," Dubai is a dazzling and frenetic combination of global playgrounds like Monaco, Las Vegas, and London.

With holiday parties in full swing and January right around the corner, we’re looking forward to taking break from canapes and cocktails in favor of yoga, breath work, and probiotics.

Earlier this year, six Local Foreigner team members made the trek (and make no mistake, it is a trek) to the islands of Bali and Sumba to scratch the surface on the land of superlatives that is Indonesia.

Bangkok is a city for people who love cities, who love discovery, and who love to travel.

Located just south of the Indian subcontinent, the Maldives consists of 26 atolls, crosses the equator, and is the smallest country in Asia.

While trotting out the skis or tennis rackets is always a welcome diversion, sometimes we need a little shot of the unexpected to get us through the last dregs of winter.

The tiny island of Bali -- a mere 50 miles tall by 90 miles wide -- packs a powerful punch.

We checked in with the Local Foreigner team to see what they’re most excited about this summer, both from a personal travel perspective and when it comes to client trips.

The newness and constantly changing landscape of Dubai can be overwhelming. We asked Jumeirah Marsa Al Arab’s Sam Wilcox to reveal some of his favorites in the Pearl of the Gulf.

Italian luxury meets Japanese service.

The perfect escape from the action.

There are freshly pressed hotel sheets, and then there are hotel sheets that have never been slept in - that sense of newness is what's on offer at the forty-three properties we're most excited to see debut in 2025.

Whether you're reaching for a getaway for this December, or you're a fastidious planner who's already thinking about 2025's bucket-list festive trip, we're here.

Five temples that are must-visits for any trip to Angkor – think of this list as a starting point for parsing the vast cultural and religious history that is writ large (often literally) across these incredible structures.

This one’s for the aviation geeks.

Vietnam’s place of peace.

Make a wish upon a lantern.

The Land of the Rising Sun is consistently one of our most-requested locations, thanks to its incredible depth of culture, history, art, and - of course - its food.

You can buy yourself flowers, but better yet, you can plan a trip to enjoy them in situ.
