Pelorus
Bespoke travel, yachting and aviation experiences that seek to transform our perspective of the world and our impact on the planet. A ‘pelorus’ was the navigational tool used to maintain the bearing of a sea vessel back in the golden era of travel and discovery – it is responsible for mapping much of the world as we know it today. In a similar vein, Pelorus ushers in a new wave of exploration, creating extraordinary experiences for those seeking something truly different. In a time of pick-and-pay itineraries, Pelorus goes against the industry grain and puts the focus on the experience, designing individual holidays according to the client’s brief. We work exclusively with a network of industry leaders, who allow us to consider areas and experiences that most travel companies do not give a second thought. We pride ourselves on our attention to detail, creativity and due diligence. Whether travelling to a region that very few others have experienced, or visiting a country that is well-established on the tourist trail, we will ensure your journey is different.
