Bucket List Holidays with The Camel Collection

October 8, 2025

Certain journeys exist in a category of their own - the ones you've been imagining for years, that require the right moment and the right planning. At The Camel Collection, we approach these milestone trips with the seriousness they deserve, whether that means helicopter journeys across Antarctica, trekking to Machu Picchu with private archaeologists, or weeks spent island-hopping through Indonesia on a private yacht.

What We Curate

We distinguish between bucket list clichés and bucket list experiences worth the anticipation. Our focus is on journeys that deliver beyond expectation - not just seeing the Northern Lights, but positioning you in the Finnish wilderness with astrophysicists who can explain what you're witnessing. Not just visiting Petra, but arriving before the crowds with a guide whose family has lived in Wadi Musa for generations.

Insider Insight

The best bucket list trips often combine the iconic with the unexpected - pairing Machu Picchu with Peru's lesser-known Chachapoyas region, or following Antarctica with time in Chilean Patagonia.

Top 5 Bucket List Experiences

  1. Antarctica Expedition – White Desert
  2. Gorilla Trekking – Rwanda
  3. Galápagos Private Yacht Charter – Ecuador
  4. Overland Silk Road Journey – Uzbekistan to Kyrgyzstan
  5. Bhutan Cultural Trek – Tiger's Nest to Bumthang

When to Go

These journeys demand precise timing. Antarctica shines from November to February, Rwanda's gorillas are accessible year-round but drier months (June to September) make trekking easier. Research and planning timelines often extend 12-18 months ahead.
