ABOUT US
WE LIVE IN THE MOUNTAINS
We are experienced skiers and have skied the legendary runs. We can give you first hand resort recommendations, organise ski guides and advise on snow conditions. We know what it takes to deliver remarkable resort quality; we have personally hand-picked every chalet that we offer.
WE ARE EXPERIENCED SAILORS
We have cruised the seven seas. We can assist you with detailed information to help you choose the ideal yacht and destination for your group. If we don’t have it listed then we will find it in our network, world-wide. Talk to our team about the details that make the difference for you and we will make it happen.
