Whether you’re bobbing and weaving your way through a floating market in Bangkok aboard a traditional long boat, sunning yourself on the deck of a yacht off an idyllic Caribbean island, diving from a luxury liveaboard in Indonesia’s Raja Ampat or on the lookout for big game from a mokoro dugout canoe in Botswana’s Okavango Delta, the boat is surely one of the best ways to travel.
What these rather marvellous feats of human endeavour all have in common is their ability to let us see landscapes, people and wildlife from a totally different perspective and experience otherwise inaccessible environments. We only work with the best liveaboard dive boats, luxury charter yachts and skippers in the business so your trip will be plain sailing.
Welcome aboard our collection of the very best luxury boats around the world.
