Private Charters

For the ultimate privacy and luxury, talk to our team to get advice on the best small ships, catamarans and yachts available for private charter.

There’s something special about setting sail on your own private charter. Whether marking a milestone or simply spending quality time with loved ones, it feels both indulgent and wonderfully freeing.

No timetables, no planning the next meal—just you, your people, and the rhythm of life on the water. Be it the Mediterranean, the Norwegian fjords, the Nile or the islands of Indonesia and Galapagos, we can curate something completely bespoke, with your own captain, crew and guides to look after every detail. And when shared, the cost can be more accessible than you might think. Below are some of our favourite boats. Floating hideaways that can take you to corners of the world you’d never reach by road.

Europe - All the ingredients

Chartering a yacht in Europe combines all the ingredients of the perfect, private holiday—offering exclusivity often at a similar cost to a private villa.

Dining: Fresh Mediterranean cuisine
Activity: Coastal walks and village visits
Culture: Easy access to ancient sites
Watersports: From jumping off deck to a gentle kayak
Relaxation: Siestas and reading on deck
Skies: Sunrises and sunsets only found on the water

Turkey - Top notch

We have been on trips all over the world and chartered yachts many times. This holiday to Turkey was the best trip and experience we have ever enjoyed. The sights, the yacht, the crew, the food and beverage were top notch all the time.

Indonesia - Expert Insight

Being on the water in Indonesia is Travel Expert Clare’s happy place—somewhere she has returned to many times. For her, there’s no better way to explore the archipelago than by private yacht. The freedom it offers is unmatched: follow your interests—be that diving, birdwatching, culture or something else entirely—with the flexibility to change course and embrace those serendipitous moments. If the crew hears of a rare sighting, you can alter your route on a whim, while others are bound to schedule. Your floating base becomes a home from home, with a crew to take care of everything—leaving you free to be fully in the moment.

Indonesia - Our private charter experience as a family of 5

It  was magical. Diving all together (our 3 children are 25, 23 and 19 years old) was something we had never done before and Herry and Safri were superb dive masters. Coming back to the boat to the most welcoming, helpful team for whom nothing seemed to be too much trouble, relaxing on the boat, having it to ourselves, made it one of the most special and memorable family times ever. It was the perfect balance between activities and time to chill. The boat was beautiful, the scenery breathtaking, the staff unparalleled and the fish and reefs out of this world. I cannot recommend it highly enough and anyone who does it is lucky indeed!
