Sicily expert Rossella spends all her time on the road meeting people, visiting villas in Sicily and cultivating a large and growing network of contacts in Sicily to gain access to a Sicily that the casual tourist or a less focused operator simply won’t find. Her selection of personally sourced villas, niche accommodation and yachts in Sicily is second to none, as is her ability to help you to create an itinerary that is perfect for you.

You’d think that the person to find you a villa in Morocco would be the one that the best travel companies go to for their own clients. And, in the case of my connected friend, you would be absolutely right. With dual British-Moroccan citizenship, he commutes constantly between London and Morocco and, as a result, is über-connected all over the country (in the less-discovered corners as well as Marrakech). A great bonus – he also understands both Anglo and Arabic tastes and mentalities perfectly.
His property portfolio includes the best and most interesting (not just the most expensive) private riads, villas and country houses. Just as importantly, this expert’s address book includes the best guides, party planners, chefs, in-house masseurs, spa therapists, drivers and more.

May seem improbable, but they have grown in these regions starting from Africa 15 years ago. They have core competencies I have defined over the years. Three teams of experts bring a unique depth of knowledge to each of their specialist areas: Africa, India and Latin America; every trip is tailor-made, down to the last, perfect detail; their passion borders on obsession! Outstanding.
Lots of people claim to be Africa experts but these guys live, eat and breathe it. One of the founders lived and worked in Botswana for years before setting up in London 15 years ago; the other partner joined the company four years later. More than just knowing which destinations offer the real safari deal and which are just Africa-lite, they know the best field guides, the top pilots, which lodges and camps will give you the degree of ’soft’ or ‘adventure’ that’s exactly right for you, what can be worked into a good itinerary and what doesn’t deliver or simply doesn’t make sense.
On an island like Mauritius, where your so much of your holiday experience is defined by the hotel you stay in, it’s more important than ever to separate truth from hype – and match taste, style and occasion to the right property. Louisa, on the team, is a goldmine of information on all of the good Mauritian resorts: what will suit whom, when and why – and what to avoid.

Costa Rica Expert Leigh Ann Cloutier
Rico Tours
Cloutier sends hundreds of clients to Costa Rica’s bohemian hotels and grand resorts each year. “It doesn’t get any more authentic than the September endurance horse race around Lake Arenal”, she says, “a two-day event with festivities each night…”

Ski Trip Specialist
So much snow…so little time to ski it. Is that how winter looks to you? So get this: leave home early on Saturday morning (no need to cut into Friday at the office), be in a helicopter just after lunch, dropped onto pristine snow on the Mont Blanc massif 20 minutes later, ski several thousand vertical feet by tea-time, great dinner, big sleep, same again tomorrow, back at your desk at the normal time on Monday morning. Impossible? Nope….. if you’re London-based, we know the man who can (hey, if you’re just visiting London on business, what a great way to end your week). Everything is tailor-made to fit your working hours, ski skills, energy levels and adrenaline addiction to a T.
