Planes, Trains and Boats

Sometimes how you get there is the best part of the journey, and, sometimes, Trains, Planes and Boats are your journey…

In the words of travel writer Paul Theroux: “I have seldom heard a train go by and not wished I was on it.”

Epic train journeys can be found around the world – The Ghan in Australia, the Rovos Rail in South Africa or The Rocky Mountaineer, across the Canadian Rockies – and there are fewer things more exciting than stepping onboard a train to embark on one of the world’s great journeys. Whether you are looking for spectacular scenery, heritage steam engines, or luxury carriage, for those with a little extra time, trains are arguably the most relaxing way to travel long distance.

As trains are for epic land journeys, small ships are for epic ocean voyages. They allow access to more remote destinations and more engagement with the experience of being on the water. Your time off the ship becomes more of what your cruise is about than the ship itself. You can experience these remarkable places with connections not only to nature, but with local communities and through authentic experiences whether adventurous, cultural or culinary. In particular small ships excel in adventure destinations like the Galápagos, Cape Horn, Alaska, Antarctica, and the South Pacific; sometime offering the only means to experience the world’s more remote locations. Our definition of small ships extends to boats and barges that sail on waterways throughout Europe, Asia, or through idyllic island archipelagos as well.

Short on time? Air charter itineraries can enable access to pristine remote regions without the laborious time spent traveling by road, or on scheduled flight service. Seamlessly fast track between destinations on your own schedule. For small groups or extended families, air charter service can also be a cost-effective way to travel. Available in most destinations, use of private charters can expedite a portion or all your transfer needs.
