Where Is the World’s Richest Travelling for Summer Holidays in 2023?

“There’s Really No Substitution for Experience and Expertise, ” He Said, Adding That Clients Need to Understand Which Companies Are Taking a More Responsible Approach to Extreme Travel. Before Starting His Role at Eyos, Lyons Was an Officer and Captain on the Queen Mary 2 and Several Expedition Ships Going to the Arctic, He Told Us.

No One Is Squeezing into a Small Submarine Here

As Lyons Says, Eyos Is in the Business of “Selling Dream Holidays and Once-in-a-Lifetime Experiences”.

Trips Are Tailored to Guests’ Preferences

By Offering Yacht Charters, the Guests – Often Groups of 12 to 22 People – Can Embark on a Holiday Fully Tailored to Their Interests. Eyos Can Bring Guests to Places Like Antarctica, Vanuatu, and Small Islands in the Indian and Pacific Oceans.

Cruise Lines Like Celebrity, Silversea, and Princess Also Offer Passageway to the Icy Continent

But Travellers Aboard These Ships Still Have to Share the Experience with Hundreds to Thousands of Other Guests. This Is Where Eyos Has Carved out a Niche for Itself.

This New Luxury Cruise Ship Is 5 Times Bigger Than the Titanic

As a Condé Nast Traveler Reported in March, Everyone, It Seems, Is Cruising to Antarctica.

Antarctica Is Also over Social Media Lately

You May Have Seen Endless Social Media Posts About Travellers Going to Antarctica. but According to Lyons, This Destination “Is Not a Fad”.

Eyos Doesn’t Own Any of the Yachts Listed on Its Website That Are Available for Charter

Instead, These Vessels Are Privately Owned and Chartered out to the Travel Company, Although Eyos Does Manage Several of the Vessels. This Generally Entails Representing the Yacht to Other Agencies or Individuals and Managing the Operations.

Why Are Restaurants Adding Tiny Seats for Luxury Handbags?

Eyos Has Not Listed the Cost of Its Trips Aboard the Octopus. but in 2022, the 12-Guest Yacht Was Available for Charter Starting at Us$2.2 Million a Week with Yacht Firm Camper and Nicholsons.

Trips Designed for High-Flyers

To Afford These Trips, Eyos’ Clients Work High-Paying Roles. Think Founders and Ceos in Industries Like Finance with Interests Like Skiing. “Our Clients Are Busy Folks Trying to Be as Efficient as Possible Without Feeling That They’re Ticking the Boxes, ” Lyons Said.

Think of the Process as Ordering a Custom Vehicle …

Eyos Uses a Client’s Expectations for the Trip to Design Their Curated Itinerary. from There, the Traveller and Eyos Can Go Back and Forth Tweaking the Itinerary Until It Meets the Traveller’s (And Their Party’s) Demands.

The 10 Best Airlines in the World in 2023 – How Does Hk’s Cathay Pacific Score?

If the Trip Requires Specialised Guidance, Eyos Will Provide These Resources.

Some Specialised Trips Can Be More Difficult to Plan

Compared to a Group of 10 People Who All Have the Same Interest, It’s Not Exactly Easy to Plan a Curated Holiday for a Large Group of 40 Guests Who All Have Conflicting Activity Interests and a Need to Travel on Separate Yachts.

Next Year, Eyos Will Offer Four or Five of These Itineraries. but Yacht Charters Will Still Remain Its Bread and Butter. in Comparison, It Operates 50 to 60 Charters Annually.

Why Italy’s New La Dolce Vita Luxury Train Is Already Booked Through 2024

“Five or 10 Year's Ago, People Didn’t Quite Realise What You Could Do with a Private Yacht, ” Lyons Said. “We’re Seeing This Tremendous Growth in Expedition Yachting That People Are Now Realising Is Possible. ”
