Condé Nast Traveller – Top Travel Specialists 2019

We’re delighted that our very own Jules Maury has been included in the Condé Nast Traveller list of Top Travel Specialists. Jules knows how to craft pan-generational and extraordinary itineraries, like her murder-mystery experience at a castle in Scotland (before taking off on a private jet to the Dolomites to ski), a family takeover of one of Sri Lanka’s most luxe coastal hotels with a private safari in Yala National Park followed by a picnic overlooking the tea plantations; or a heli trip to New Zealand’s Alps with fly-bys of 2,000-foot waterfalls and glaciers, before dropping in amongst the fur seals and foraging for fresh lobster. And as an avid skier, sailor, and rider, Maury knows just how to tire out restless teens.
