With customized private travel, those limitations don’t exist.

How it Works

This is a simplified version of the process. Each tour has its own characteristics, so there will always be variables. But it will usually follow this basic pathway.

Survey

Survey

Since every journey is unique, we begin the process with a quick survey form. You’ll answer a set of questions to get the ball rolling. Don’t worry – there’s no commitment at this stage. It’s merely exploratory for both of us. The questions are basic stuff like where, when, who, what and for how long. This will give me a glimpse of what you’re hoping to achieve, and provide me with the basic information needed to formulate the plan required for the next step.

Planning

I’ll personally connect with you via Skype or whatever works best for you, and together we will begin to create a more precise version of your ideal journey. After a short period, you’ll receive the initial travel proposal for your approval. Once approved, a deposit is collected, and then the finer details are worked out. Based on our conversations, we will fine-tune the journey until it’s perfect.

Approval

The full, final itinerary will be created for your approval. When you are satisfied with the plan, final payment(s) will be scheduled. Hotels, flights, vehicles, fixers, restaurants will all be booked. You’ll prepare any needed travel documents, start packing, and get ready to travel.

On arrival at our initial destination, you’ll be met at the airport and fast-tracked through immigration (where available), and then whisked to your hotel by private car service. I will already be there, and after you’re settled in, we will discuss the details of what’s about to come. Let the new experiences begin!
