Press and Awards
At Scott Dunn, our mission is to elevate travel out of the ordinary. We strive to bring you unique travel experiences that you couldn't get elsewhere, delivered with exceptional personalised service.
We're honoured when our work is recognised - whether through features in leading publications like Condé Nast Traveller, Country & Townhouse, and The Standard, or through the awards voted for by travellers and industry experts alike. One of our proudest accolades is being voted Condé Nast Traveller's Top Travel Specialists in the World 13 years in a row (and counting).
The majority of the awards we win are voted for by the public, which makes them all the sweeter. Knowing that we have made unforgettable memories for our guests means the world to us – and knowing you have cherished the experience enough to vote for us in awards and recommend us to your friends and family is invaluable. Thank you to all of you for your continued support – we wouldn't be here without you.

Livia Angelini
I was born and raised in Rome, Italy and from an early age, I was introduced to the world of travel, and it quickly became more than just a passion—it became a way of life. Growing up surrounded by history and culture, I learned to appreciate the small details that make each place unique: the scent of freshly baked bread in a neighborhood café, the laughter echoing from a local piazza, the joy of getting lost down cobblestone streets. These moments shaped how I see the world and inspired my lifelong desire to share that magic with others.

Rachael Mendizabal
I was born in Australia and have always had a curious spirit. This has led me to explore all seven continents and more than 60 countries, driven by a love of adventure, food and wine, and the stories of ancient civilizations. Whether cycling through Provence, hiking the Inca trail, photographing Antarctic penguins, or just taking in the views, I always want to connect to a place and its' people. More recently, I’m learning to travel with a young family in tow, where luxury is as much about ease and authenticity as it is about sharing the wonder of the world together.
