Luxury of Silence

Our world is loud, with endless pings and chatter. Cut through the noise and change the way you travel this year. Explore the world meaningfully and let Pelorus design your once-in-a-lifetime travel or yachting experience that will see you far from the throngs of tourists and experiencing the true heart of a country.

Discover our handpicked selection of the most incredible experiences from our Travel Designers from uncovering faraway lands to enjoying intimate wildlife encounters. As Jane Austen writes, “Let us have the luxury of silence.”

Safari in Silence

Awaken to the jungle’s call or the sounds of the bush… if it’s seclusion you’re looking for, then Africa’s wetlands, rainforests and savannahs are where you will find it. Privacy and space to roam are plentiful, as is the wildlife. Picture a luxurious camp on a private island within Botswana’s Jao Reserve, sunrise safari drives through the African bush, and intimate wildlife encounters in some of the densest big-game areas.

Experience safari in a new way with a stay at a waterfront camp floating down the mighty Okavango Delta via mokoro (traditional canoe) for a slow, silent safari close to nature. Or, cover some ground in an electric vehicle to catch a glimpse of the Big Five. However you choose to explore, you’ll enjoy an authentic, enriching experience while leaving little impact.

Extraordinary Nordic Adventures

The Nordic countries are majestic and ethereal, immersed in an otherworldly beauty that’s unlike anywhere else on Earth. Discover Sweden, whose landscape is peppered with thousands of lakes, freshwater streams and snow-capped mountains, making for an incredible wildlife-watching destination.

For adrenaline junkies, Norway offers completely unique adventures. Ski from sky to sea over untouched pistes with panoramic views over the Norwegian fjords. Become enchanted by this scenery as you plot your own voyage of discovery: driving in electric supercars, explore these pristine mountain passes, sea-spanning bridges and intricate web of tunnels for emission-free exploration.

Unplug and unwind: Luxury Camps in Incredible Locations

For the ultimate in privacy and seclusion, a private camp in the middle of nowhere offers an experience that no hotel, lodge or chalet can match. But just because these camps are off-the-beaten-track doesn’t mean you need to sacrifice on comfort or luxury. 

Whether you opt for a bohemian canvas tent under the stars in Oman or an authentic experience in Africa complete with a white tablecloth supper and private chef, or a brand-new space-inspired pod in the middle of Antarctica, you can rest assured you won’t be disturbed. What makes these camps particularly special is their off-grid location, far from any artificial noise, light pollution and – most importantly – people.

Mindful moments in Asia

There’s a kind of mysticism that surrounds the Himalayas, where ancient traditions and modern life collide for a destination promoting wellness and, above all, happiness for the ultimate destination to relax. Crossing five countries – Bhutan, India, Nepal, China and Pakistan – these mountainous folds are home to incredible properties where serenity and simplicity meet luxury.

Embrace the local religion, Buddhism, as you meander along untouched paths and bask in this incredible scenery. Feel the wind on your skin as you hike to sacred temples and monasteries high up in the mountains. Enjoy the simplicity of the local cultures and connect to the heart of this intriguing land – and to yourself.

Discover Spiritual and cultural connections in Australia's outback

There is no better place to immerse yourself in silence than in the beating spiritual heart of Australia’s Red Center, Uluru. Home to the iconic 550 million-year-old Uluru Rock, this remote region of northern Australia and ancient desert land has also been the sacred site of the indigenous Anangu tribe for at least 30,000 years.

Discover extraordinary geological formations and fish in untouched waters at Sweets Lagoon before watching the sun cast changing colors against Uluru Rock as you dine in a secluded alcove among the dunes at sunset. Wake up in the morning to extraordinary views over the landscape from your bedroom in the ultra-luxurious Longitude 131.
