Hosted Departures
A few trips a year,
we host ourselves.
Small groups, real dates, designed and led by the founders. Join one — or take it private.
November 21–29, 2026
Selling nowMorocco — Thanksgiving Week
Thanksgiving is Morocco's quiet superpower: warm desert days, and the souks weeks ahead of the December crowds.
Marrakech riads, the Atlas foothills, a night under Sahara stars — paced for families. We run a handful of trips that week on rails we've already laid.
April 2027 · Spring Break
Interest list open — deposits this fallTurkey — Family Heritage
April is Istanbul's tulip month and balloon weather in Cappadocia — weeks ahead of the summer crush.
Istanbul's layered old city, cave hotels and dawn balloons, the Turquoise Coast to close. Built for families with curious kids.
July 2027 · Migration Season
Interest list open — camps held first-comeEast Africa — The Migration
July puts the herds at the river crossings — the right camps sell out a full year ahead.
We ran 25 travelers through Kenya and Tanzania in July 2026, every bush flight choreographed. July 2027 runs the same rails, founders on the ground.
October–November 2027
Interest list open — the list hears firstCricket World Cup — South Africa
October is the finest game-viewing month of the Kruger year — right as the group stage begins.
South Africa's first World Cup since 2003: India fixtures at the marquee grounds, a safari second chapter, Cape Town to close.
Travel Around an Event
The event is the anchor.
We design everything around it.
The fixture sets your dates; we build the trip around it. The second chapter is where it gets good — safari after the cricket, the coast after Monaco.
Prefer Your Own Dates?
Every departure has a private version.
We design two or three private versions of each trip every season — same lodges, same rails, your dates, your pace. The research is done; the relationships are warm.
