Specialties

Ready to embrace a locale like a local—and dive deeply into its customs and traditions? We can guide you to the culturally rich destinations that still fly under the tourist radar, or show you how to experience a “mainstream” destination with an authentic twist. Whether you’re an art and architecture aficionado, history buff, or music fiend, we’ll fill your custom itinerary with private excursions and immersive experiences tailored to your specific interests—from Krakow to Kyoto to Kolkata.

Or, choose a mode of travel where the journey itself is as exciting as the destination. Marvel at Istanbul’s spires from your perch in your vintage train cabin aboard the iconic Venice Simplon-Orient-Express, pedal your own bike (or e-bike) through vineyards or rice paddies, or take in the castles and countryside from the deck of your refined river cruise as it snakes down the Seine.


Culturally Vibrant Itineraries

Fully immerse yourself

Discover the wildest places on earth—with some truly wild creatures—via a tailored travel adventure. Embark on a bucket-list African safari experience full of daily game drives, luxe lodge stays, and the option to add on visits to some of Africa’s astounding sights, like Victoria Falls or cosmopolitan Cape Town. We’ve been on a variety of safari experiences ourselves, from gorilla trekking in Uganda to “classic” safaris into the bush in South Africa, Tanzania, Botswana, and beyond. We would love to share our favorite safari partners and places with you.

Or embark on an overseas journey that sails you to remote locales aboard a specially equipped expedition cruise. Kayak alongside massive icebergs and penguin colonies in Antarctica, swine with marine iguanas in the Galapagos, or chase the Northern Lights in the Arctic Circle. Expedition cruises make immersive discovery easy—but no less astounding.


Safaris and Expeditions

Take a trek

Calling all oenophiles, gourmands, and bon vivants: let us design a delicious itinerary for you that opens doors to cellars and chef’s tables across your destination.

Journey to the world’s most storied food and wine regions, or up-and-coming ones, for private tastings with vintners, vineyard tours, hands-on culinary classes, chef-led market tours, and more. Argentina, South Africa, France, Italy, Australia—wherever your tastes take you, we’ll work with our incredible in-country partners to curate a full-flavored trip that reveals the sweet and savory sides of your destination.



Culinary and Wine Travel

Eat—and drink—up

Sometimes, all you want is to relax and recharge—against a gorgeous backdrop of turquoise blues. Let us pair you with an intimate resort or private villa experience that feels world’s away from the hustle and bustle of the typical all inclusive.

Our roster of boutique luxury properties go big on the pampering, provide gourmet dining options, and feature tucked-away locations that are perfect for unplugging. Want to venture off resort to explore more of your destination? We can arrange immersive excursions for you … but we won’t blame you if you spend your entire stay mai tai in hand next to the pool.
