Small Ship Charters can become that "once in a lifetime  experience" for guests with high expectations.  

It's not easy to exceed the expectations of those at the top. But Our mission is to assist you in coordinating the event that"Blows Their Socks Off" whether on-board private luxury charters for as few as 22 VIPs or upscale groups as large as several hundred.

     Charter a ship, and you control who sails; where the ship goes; when it leaves the dock; and all events on-board. A full-ship charter offers "The Ultimate Corporate Get Away” where guests can share a private, unique, exciting, and relaxing respite that opens a world of endless possibilities. Guests enjoy unique overseas experiences and multiple destinations without packing and unpacking. There are ships appropriate to every need sailing to most of the world's exciting destinations. River cruises offer countless itineraries throughout U.S, Russia, Europe, & China. Other unique itineraries include Alaska; Antartica; Polynesia; and the Galapagos Islands.

      A small ship charter offers the most secure environment for VIPs and upscale groups. The environment on-board is totally controlled with high security screening for access. World leaders often choose to charter then remain out at sea for ultimate security during their private meetings.

      Dealing with just one key U.S. contact, and making one all-inclusive payment  in U.S. Dollars saves the meeting/event planner time and energy.  There are no run-away costs for AV equipment, refreshments and other necessities which hotels and resorts are quick to bill at last-minute prices.

        Our first response to any inquiry is to summarize  (at no cost to the client) the  variety and  choices of appropriate options to assist in formulating an  initial plan. This helps to identify the preferred type of ship;  port of embarkation; and  exciting itineraries that fit within a specific time frame, such as (4-5 days). We know which cruiselines and vessels provide reliable, top-notch service.

     Our outline will summarize initial pricing for a variety of options and includes a general overview. As the client refines more specific details pertaining to exact needs, we then narrow down the choice of ship, fine tune the itinerary and pricing, and detail  the events and service to be provided on-board. 

      Initially we select a variety of different ships. Some offer all-inclusive pricing with charter rates independent of the number of passengers on-board - this can be ideal for a sports event charter.  Such ships generally offer one flat rate that includes port charges, taxes, gratuities and unlimited alcohol for the entire charter,  exclusive of number of passengers. These ships make it possible to forecast the exact cost of the event, regardless of the final number of guests.

     Our initial outline, intentionally "outside the box", will include diverse alternative options not commonly considered, and reflects our experience with specialty, "niche" yachts or ships throught the world. Charters create wide opportunities for guests to experience exciting and often unique new activities or events. One option, for example, might be a unique American River cruise that includes a day at a prominent event such as "The Kentucky Derby", or perhaps a private tour including dinner at a European  "Royal Palace".
