SUZANNE HIGMAN, TOUR MANAGER
Suzanne’s thirst for travel has seen her journey to more than 90 countries, joining the Captain's Choice team in 2008. Suzanne’s favourite destination is Africa, for its diversity, natural beauty, and wildlife. While her most memorable Captain’s Choice moment was listening to four pure voices singing hymns within the cave church of Armenia’s Geghard Monastery, during what was a tear-inducing encounter.
I’ve travelled to South and Latin America many times, from the timeless atmosphere of Antigua in Guatemala, to Brazil’s vibrant culture and music, to the vast silence of the Atacama Desert, and the immersive experience of the Amazon River. Each place leaves its own impression. I’m especially looking forward to revisiting the Azores and Madeira, and taking a balloon ride over the Atacama Desert - floating above that vast landscape early in the morning will be magical. I also can’t wait to be back in Brazil, enjoying the music, the energy and, of course, a little dancing.
Travelling by private jet is what makes this journey possible in such a unique way. It elevates the experience, allowing access to remarkable locations in a short space of time while minimising transit. Business Class comfort, meals and calm throughout the aircraft offer a wholly different experience to travelling Business on a commercial flight.
Accommodation has been selected with great care, and each property plays its role in shaping the overall experience. It’s difficult to choose just one highlight, but I’m particularly looking forward to our privately chartered ship cruising the Amazon, as well as the serenity of Nayara Alto Atacama in Chile.
Flexibility is key, made possible through our Your World Experiences, which offer a diverse range of options to suit every pace and sense of adventure. For those looking for something more adventurous on this itinerary, options include a helicopter flight over active volcanoes, a sunrise balloon ride above spectacular landscapes, delving into the rhythms and energy of Brazilian music culture, or exploring rugged mountains and coastlines by jeep.
From my perspective as a Tour Manager, this itinerary takes all the complexity out of planning a journey and replaces it with ease, comfort and stress-free travel, including an experienced doctor travelling with us, so guests feel safe and cared for.
Each stop on this journey offers something remarkable in its own way, but what matters most to me is how guests experience each place. If you allow yourself to truly immerse in the culture and connect with the locals you can appreciate each moment for what it is, creating a memorable and enriching journey.
I hope that you can join me on this remarkable journey, departing this August.
