Uncover Your Travel Personality

We all want different things out of travel: Some people are chasing heart-pounding adventures, some are craving a taste of new cultures or cuisines, and others are on a journey of self-discovery. Four Seasons offers experiences tailored to every travel personality. Enjoy one of the World’s 50 Best Bars in Bangkok, balance your energy in Costa Rica and reach new speeds in Whistler.

For the cultural explorers: Seoul and Paris

The city of Seoul is a study in contrasts: rich traditions and historic landmarks in the heart of a bustling, forward-thinking metropolis. Experience both the old and the new on a guided walking tour arranged by Four Seasons Hotel Seoul. You’ll enjoy special access to some of the city’s top attractions and sites, like Gyeongbokgung Palace, Bukchon Hanok Village and the gallery-lined alleys of Insa-dong. To further immerse yourself in the city’s culture, don a hanbok – a traditional Korean garment worn during holidays and celebrations – for your tour.

Your cultural journey continues when you return to the Hotel. Chief Concierge Sojung Park suggests you unwind at the Spa with another Korean tradition: a visit to the Korean sauna, featuring cold, warm and hot baths as well as wet and dry sauna rooms. Afterwards, toast your experience at The Market Kitchen, where carefully preserved 600-year-old ruins are on display beneath a glass floor.

Alternatively, opt to escape the city. All eyes may be on the world-class athletes competing for the gold in Paris, but if you need a break from the action, set out from Four Seasons Hotel George V, Paris, for an exclusive visit to Maison Belle Époque, set in the heart of Champagne’s vineyards. Once the house of the founders of Perrier-Jouët, this private residence and UNESCO World Heritage Site is home to the largest private collection of French art nouveau in Europe – as well as the oldest vintage champagne in the world. Explore works by Emile Gallé, Georges de Feure, Rodin and Toulouse Lautrec as you tour the historic venue, including a stop in the legendary Eden Cellar to taste the finest vintages of the house. Join Chef Sébastien Morellon for lunch in the estate’s gardens, then return to the Hotel for an exclusive dinner at the Michelin-starred L’Orangerie, paired with bubbles from the House of Perrier-Jouët.

If you’d like to extend your time in Champagne, you can opt to spend the night at Maison Belle Époque, an experience available exclusively to Four Seasons guests. After a gourmet dinner served with vintages from the cellar, make yourself comfortable in one of the home’s five meticulously restored bedrooms. The next day, take a stroll through the vineyard for a picnic among the vines before your return journey to the city.

If you’re looking for the perfect place to rekindle your romance, look no further than the undiscovered East Cape of Mexico’s Baja California Peninsula. “Our location on the East Cape of Los Cabos is picture-perfect for romance.

For the eco-tourists: Maldives at Landaa Giraavaru and Naviva

The Maldives islands are stunning: pristine white-sand beaches, endless balmy sunshine, sparkling turquoise waters. That beauty extends below the waves, where you’ll discover an underwater kingdom filled with sea turtles, manta rays, vividly coloured fish and coral reefs. Help protect this UNESCO World Biosphere Reserve at Four Seasons Resort Maldives at Landaa Giraavaru, where a team of marine biologists at the Marine Discovery Centre lead conservation efforts.

Contribute to the cause by becoming a scientist for a day: Stop into the Turtle Rehabilitation Centre to help with turtle-monitoring and photo-ID projects, or join in on the pioneering Reefscapers program to help build coral reefs in the Resort’s lagoon. For a truly unforgettable experience, sign up for Manta on Call so you’ll be notified immediately whenever manta rays are spotted nearby. When they are, you can hop on a speedboat for an opportunity to swim with these giant, gentle creatures.

Since you’re never too young to care about the health of our oceans, scientifically minded teens and young adults can join the Resort’s new Trainee Marine Biologist Program for a deep dive into what it takes to pursue a conservation career. The program’s six modules combine educational sessions with hands-on activities like helping the team track dolphins in the waters around the island, using artificial intelligence to monitor coral reef restoration efforts, and supporting the on-site veterinarian providing life-saving care to injured sea turtles.

At Naviva, A Four Seasons Resort, Punta Mita, México, every experience is designed with conservation and sustainability in mind. “We embrace sustainability not just as a practice, but as a core principle of our ethos,” says Resort Manager Eduardo Sampere. “We are deeply committed to environmental stewardship, which extends to the way we source and use our water.” The Resort uses hydropanel technology to extract clean, pollutant-free water from the air and, using the power of the sun, mineralize it for taste, producing enough premium-quality drinking water to meet all the Resort’s needs.

Other conservation measures can be found throughout the Resort, from specially designed roofs that collect and filter rainwater for irrigation to the careful design of Resort tents, buildings, and pathways to accommodate trees and animal habitats to preserve biodiversity. For a truly immersive, sustainable experience, head to the Spa for a serene soak in an ofuro tub, made from regionally sourced high-insulation cedar wood to capture and retain heat to conserve energy. This thermal soak is soothing to mind and body, promoting detoxification, elevating cardiovascular performance, fortifying the immune system, purifying the skin, and easing pain or stress.

For the adventure seekers: Sydney and Whistler

Take your travels to new heights in Sydney with an adrenaline-pumping 1,332-step walk up the iconic Sydney Harbour Bridge, accompanied by a guide from Four Seasons Hotel Sydney. Your reward: a 360-degree view of the city that you will never forget. As you gaze down at landmarks like the Sydney Opera House and Luna Park – or, on a clear day, the Blue Mountains – it’s easy to see why Sydney Harbour is considered by many to be the most beautiful natural harbour in the world.

If you need a break from the hustle and bustle of the city, escape to the Australian Outback and Uluru, the sacred heart of Australia and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Experts believe the massive sandstone monolith started forming around 550 million years ago; today, it stands 348 metres (1,142 feet) high. After your private jet flight to the Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park, join a guide on a private walking tour of the site. If the timing is right, you might get to see the rock seem to glow red under the light of the sun from iron oxide in the sandstone.
