What we do

Everyone’s travel dreams are different. But we know what it takes to design a holiday beyond expectations. We insist on partnering only with the very best private guides and hand-pick all of our accommodation. Whether it’s a classic luxury hotel, an exclusive villa for the family or a desert camp built just for two, we constantly review what we offer to ensure the highest standards.

We open doors. Our network of global contacts connects you to local people and leading lights. Travelling with The Luxury Holiday Company introduces you personally to Michelin-starred chefs and artisan winemakers, Maasai warriors and Maori elders, remote villagers, even royalty. What’s more, we can arrange for you to enjoy privileged, behind-the-scenes access to iconic sites. Think of the stories you’ll tell.

But we also know that it’s the little touches that count: an unexpected upgrade, a private table on the beach, a tip for a hot restaurant, a cool venue, how to experience those must-see sights without the crowds.

Travelling with The Luxury Holiday Company is seriously special.
