Explorations of the Unique
Iconic Explorations
Our unparalleled collection of explorations transports you to the world’s most fascinating corners, many that are ordinarily hard to access or have recently opened to travellers. Every experience reveals rare aspects of the destination, delivered to you in ways you may have never considered . Often by land and rail. Sometimes by kayak, private yacht, camel or dog sled.
From North to South, East to West & Off The Beaten Path
Join a group of usually no more than 24 kindred spirits to search for adventures in extraordinary places all across the globe, from East Africa to British Colombia, the Himalayas to the Caribbean and so much more.
Designed for Daily Discoveries
On these journeys we don’t just observe, we become immersed in daily life and the customs tied to the places we visit. We join a husky safari in Inari, dance with Tibetan locals and cook with Ethiopian families. We’ll hear stories from the past, and learn how they have shaped the present-day world we find ourselves in.
THE GOOD LIFE
It is well understood that much of your travel experience is about where you stay. This is why Captain’s Choice have chosen benchmarks of luxury in every destination. You might find yourself one night sleeping in a marble palace in the middle of Udaipur’s Lake Pichola. The next, in a luxe, cocoon-like lodging just metres from the Indian Ocean.
YOUR WORLD EXPERIENCES
Your invitation to rare and amazing events other travellers only ever dare dream of, we’ve curated an exclusive collection of experiences. Unique to every Captain’s Choice journey, we call these occasions Your World.
Everything is Considered & Included
Mundane details are moved behind the scenes, and everything is included – flights and other travel arrangements, accommodation, travel insurance, all dining and drinks, as well as every sightseeing experience and more.
RAIL JOURNEYS OF THE WORLD
We’ve scoured the world’s railways in order to bring our guests the most intriguing and unique rail journeys imaginable. Rail journeys on which you’ll traverse vast distances. On which you’ll pass through arresting landscapes. On which you’ll savour life’s finer things. Sometimes we reserve the entire train. Other times, we join other travellers for a new perspective of the world.
LAND EXPLORATIONS
These are some of the greatest overland travel adventures available. On them, we make otherwise impossible or arduous pilgrimages possible, and always embellished with a touch of indulgence. Trek gorilla families in the mountains of Uganda, navigate Bhutan’s ridges on a journey along Dochula Pass, or be escorted across northern Finland on snowmobiles.
