tangible history. Journey to the beating heart of the Land of the Incas.

​
We have prepared sample itineraries to begin the travel planning process, each ready to be customized just for you.
Let's get started!
Iguazu Falls - TLT Signature Destination - One of the wonders of the world - Argentina and Brazil - Stunning, breathtaking, pick a superlative, but it doesn't do justice to the world's largest waterfall. Surrounded by tropical forests and drenched in history and culture, you need to take 2 or 3 days to enjoy this natural splendor. Easy flight access from Buenos Aires, and a private car waiting to take you to your hotel.

Argentine side: If you want to be AT the falls, we recommend the Gran Melia Iguazu, a natural sanctuary in the heart of the Alto Paraná Atlantic forests, where the falls majestically tumble alongside the resort. 
Want a more private exclusive experience, we recommend Awasi Iguazu. 
Set in lush rainforest 20 minutes from the falls, each of the 14 villas on stilts has its own private pool. In the kitchen, the Relais & Chateaux chef creates cuisine from the heart, bringing the jungle to the plate, balancing sophistication and simplicity according to changing tastes and seasons. The surrounding area reveals countless natural wonders in the form of orchids, ferns and endemic tree species, which join tapirs, monkeys, pumas and colorful bird life.
​

Brazilian side: we recommend Belmond's Hotel das Cataratas, surrounded by the rainforest, this hideaway grants exclusive access to the park--minus the crowds. 
Seeing the falls in near solitude is magical, but the hotel offers more than just a great location. Soak up the jungle chorus while you float in the pool, stroll gardens bejeweled with orchids and sip caipirinhas as the sun goes down. 
Let's Chat! We'll give you the scoop from our first-hand experience.

Maldives Marvels -  There is no place quite like the Maldives. Arguably the best beaches on the planet are complemented by some of the world's most sumptuous remote stays. Each resort in the Maldives features private island experiences accessible by boat and/or air transfers from Male, the nation's capital. World-class diving and snorkeling over pristine reefs teeming with sea life, seemingly endless breaks for dynamite surfing, virgin fly fishing flats, and romantic over-the-water bungalows await you. And, with the world's most exclusive hotel brands competing to attain greater heights of luxury, standards of services and personal attention are off the charts. Here are some of our favorite resorts in the country.
Seychelles Wonders - 
We fell in love with these islands in January 2000, when we led the first-ever fly-fishing group to Alphonse Island Resort. At the time, this was the preeminent frontier of saltwater fly-fishing. Today the fly-fishing options are greatly expanded and led by some of the finest and most experienced fly-fishing outfitters and guides in the world. In addition, the islands have seen an expansion into luxury tourism, with top resorts providing unique remote experiences in some of the most gorgeous marine and beach environments on the planet.

Costa Rica - Pura Vida -  "pure life" or "simple life," pura vida is a phrase you will hear time and again when visiting Costa Rica. While this saying may easily roll off your tongue, pura vida is more than words — it's a lifestyle that serves as a reminder to practice optimism and gratitude to lead a full and happy life. ​Boasting astounding biological diversity and landscapes comprised of active volcanoes, tropical rainforests, and pristine beaches — a visit to this Central American sanctuary is like living in a dream. And if you ask us, the perfect secluded escape is to the spectacularly beautiful Papagayo Peninsula located on the north Pacific coast.

Featured Hotels Include: Andaz Costa Rica Resort at Peninsula Papagayo, nestled in a lush forest  with breathtaking views of Culebra Bay. Four Seasons Resort at Peninsula Papagayo, the perfect balance of comfort, luxury, and privacy.

Arrival and Departure: Couldn't be easier. A 30 minute private chauffeured ride from Liberia airport, serviced by 
American, Delta, and United through Dallas, Houston, Miami, and Atlanta. 
Travel Planning: We've created flexible travel itineraries which include flights, transfers, your choice of stellar accommodations and experiences, and even insurance — so you can book, fly, stay, and return home safely with peace of mind. And each itinerary can be customized to your wishes. Let's get started!
