Tinggal di hotel bintang lima atau bersantai di pantai adalah liburan impian banyak orang, tetapi bukan kegiatan seperti itu yang dicari pejalan mewah. Mereka mencari perjalanan yang memberikan pengalaman sekali seumur hidup atau kemewahan. Saking larisnya tipe liburan seperti ini, Quintessentially Escape pun didirikan.
Tipe liburan yang mereka inginkan termasuk menonton ikan paus di Argentina, mencicipi wine di Afrika Selatan, safari mewah di Kenya, tur privat ke Piramida, atau tur berkendara sepanjang Cina bagian barat. Tujuan-tujuan populer para turis kaya ini termasuk India, Mesir, serta Afrika, tapi kini makin banyak permintaan yang muncul buat Cina. Negara-negara Amerika Latin, seperti Peru, Brasil dan Kosta Rika pun terbukti populer.
Para pejalan mewah ini mencari pengalaman autentik, tapi mereka juga menginginkan hotel, resort dan penerbangan yang peduli lingkungan. Tanggung jawab lingkungan yang mereka incar bukan sekadar membatasi pencucian handuk. Mereka lebih tertarik pada bagaimana perjalanan mereka mendukung komunitas lokal dan menggunakan bahan-bahan alami.

Living in luxurious hotel or enjoying a beach is a vacation that was be dreamed by all people but none of the vacations are attracted them. (the rich Asian man.). They are looking for a trip that can luxuriously give an experience once in their life.

Hi Pratiwi,
Yeah, there are some mistakes in there. Well, there will be some mistakes if we use any machine translator, as I warn you in Jangan Terlalu Percaya dengan Translating Tools.
Anyway, before I post my suggestions, I’ll let others write their own opinion first.

Let me try it first.
Stay at a five-star hotel or relax at the beach is a dream vacation of many people, but not such activities are looking for luxury travelers. They are looking for trips that provide the experience of a lifetime or a luxury.

HI SA,
1. Here, “Stay in a five-star hotel” and “Relax at a beach” are not commands, are they? So, there’s a subject problem in both “stay” and “relax”.
2. “but not such activities are looking for luxury travelers”? The main clause and adjective clause are missing their subject.

I had forgotten. I must change it to gerund form. It must be “Staying in a five-star hotel” and “Relaxing at a beach”. “but not such activities are looking for luxury travelers” >>> “but not such activities that they are looking for”. How about that, Mr.SB?

Ada banyak yang tidak match atau missing antara the English version dan the Indonesian version.
The following is my version about it.
Ten types of vacations the rich Hong Kong people are dreamed of the most
By Emma Mathews, a chief of a luxurious concierge service who wants to share a list of vacations dreamed of by the rich of the Hong Kong people.
Staying in a luxurious five-star hotel or relaxing at a beach is a dreamed vacation for most people, but none of these two are interesting for rich travelers. These travelers are looking for a trip from which they will get a luxurious or a life time experience. Due to this increasing trend, the Quintessentially Escape was founded.
The types of vacations that interest them the most include watching whales in Argentina, drinking wine in the South African Republic, viewing the wild fauna in Kenya, having a private trip into Pyramids, or driving across west China. Besides Egypt and Africa, India has also become their destination. Their demand to travel across China has been increasing, too. The last, but not the least, South American countries, such as, Peru, Brazil and Costa Rica, have become popular destinations, as well.
These travelers not only look for a unique experience but also prefer an environment friendly resort, hotel and air lines. However, the environment friendly attitude they want is not merely when washing towels. They prefer if their trip can encourage the local community to use substances that are safe for the environment.

Hi guys,
The words, which have been colored red, of the English version of the post above are grammatically incorrect. Why are they incorrect or what should they be?
Thanks

oke sir, i’ll try to correct them one by one. sentence by sentence.
for the first. “that most be dreamed by rich men in hongkong”
is it true if i change the word to “that most are dreamed by the rich Hong Kong people”.
that most are dreamed = yg diimpikan. (pasive in present tense, so, i have to use to be “are”.
by the rich Hongkong people = oleh orang kaya di hongkog. pake hukum MD (Menerangkan Diterangkan) jadi adjective “rich” menerangkan “Hongkong people”. CMIIW.
