Our Travel Philosophy: Savor the
Moment
That’s our motto—and mission. We only live in the present moment. When we stop to fully savor it. With travel,
we instantly put ourselves in that open, receptive state. We take in new information, sensations, textures,
tastes, flavors, smells, people, and energy. And yet, it’s not until we get home, unpack our bags, and step
back into “ordinary” life that we see how we’ve been touched. Something subtle yet powerful happens on that
journey. It’s the capacity to learn, be, change, become. Travel is the ultimate investment in yourself. See us
as your most trusted “advisor” to manage that precious investment.
Only South America
Our expertise and focus is not only food & wine but we only work within Chile, Argentina, Uruguay, and Peru.
With our regional headquarters based in Santiago, Chile, we are constantly able to stay tuned to the pulse of
these destinations. Our clients come to us precisely for this reason: they want a specialist who understands
and loves the region in great depth and can provide them insider access. Our destinations include:
• Chile: Santiago, Central Mediterranean Chile and Wine Valleys, Patagonia, Atacama Desert.
• Argentina: Buenos Aires, Mendoza, Salta and Cafayate wine region, Patagonia, Córdoba.
• Uruguay: Carmelo, Colonia, Montevideo & Canelones wine region, Punta del Este & José Ignacio.
• Peru: Lima, Sacred Valley, Cuzco, Arequipa.
Only Food, Wine, and Culture
We’ll admit it. Our driving passion is food & wine. It’s our way of conceptualizing and experiencing life, and
we bring that enthusiasm and zest to each and every one of our itineraries. We constantly scour our
destinations, cities and valleys, to bring you the best and most authentic culinary experiences from food
artisans to traditional weavers, garage vintners to prestigious grand cru projects, cheese makers to olive oil
producers, ceviche maestros to native potato growers, savvy guides, sommeliers, and chefs. Sound delicious? It
is.
Just the Best
We are travel designers of luxurious escapes for our clients. We carefully handpick the exquisite properties,
boats, and lodges where you’ll slumber. We choose memorable dining experiences from dinners in private homes
to sumptuous street food and classic bars. You’ll travel in first-class transportation by land, air, or water.
We also afford special services to make the journey as hassle-free as possible.
Private, Bespoke, and Small Group Travel
Our niche is private tours and a small selection of intimate group departures. This is not travel for the
masses. We do not offer fixed dates for any of our private, custom-made itineraries. We work with your travel
plans. For bespoke itineraries, these handcrafted adventures begin with a private consultation and
questionnaire to help us best create an experience based on your interests. Our signature tours are small
groups are of typically 6-10 travellers with a curated itinerary, many times hosted by owner/chef/sommelier,
Liz Caskey. For either option, we handle every detail of your complete itinerary and are available to help
during every step towards the journey.
Superb Service
As a boutique firm, we are fortunately able to get to know all of our clients very well. We dedicate time and
attention to carefully designing their journeys. We also understand you are busy and time is your most prized
commodity. Leave the planning and local connections to us—simply sit back and enjoy the ride. We will arrange
everything in advance and ensure that you are an instant insider upon arrival.
Sky High: Private Jets and Helicopters
Flying by private aircraft is one of the fastest and most comfortable ways to travel in South America, saving
hours in time travelled overland. In-country, far-flung vineyards are only a hop away. You decide the
destination and time frame. One of our favorite ways to experience South America’s grand nature of mountains,
valleys, shining seas, miles of coastline, rain forests, glaciers, vineyards, and sprawling metropolis is by
helicopter. More than a bird’s-eye view of the scenery, a helicopter can land where there are no roads. As you
fly, you feel the texture and absorb the energy of the landscape. Absolutely mind-blowing.
