For years, yacht charter was all about the yacht herself: the guests’ hotel, entertainment, restaurant, and more all in one. However, today’s guests want to explore beyond the decks, and beyond a simple visit to shore to shop or dine. TJB Super Yachts is among the charter specialists fielding increased customer requests for exceptional land stays. It’s created a dedicated division, TJB Private Travel, to pool insider knowledge and offer clients something different.
TJB Super Yachts has been crafting unique charter experiences for a decade. Just as its charter brokers personalize each trip for guests based on their preferences, TJB Private Travel creates tailored, exclusive getaways and adventures. The travel advisors have a collective 20 years of arranging one-of-a-kind land excursions and stays, in fact. The options are varied, too. Clients can work with the travel advisors for an extra-special experience just before or after a superyacht charter. Or, vacations and even corporate retreats can take place independently of a charter.
What’s more, the land experiences don’t necessarily have to be in proximity to a shoreline. Certainly, private islands and hidden retreats with their own beaches are in demand, and possible. However, safaris in the Serengeti as well as mountain escapes in the Italian Alps are also opportunities. “From The Brando private island in French Polynesia where Kim Kardashian celebrated her 40th birthday, to Chalet Zermatt Peak, one of the most iconic, prestigious properties in Switzerland, TJB Private Travel takes luxury to the next level,” says Lori Laius, co-founder and managing director of TJB Private Travel. Furthermore, the travel advisors can “access a rare selection of off-market properties not listed elsewhere.”
Tim Johnson, founder and CEO of TJB Super Yachts, says the new division was a natural extension of what his company has built over the past 10 years. That includes establishing offices from the headquarters in London to Palm Beach, Florida, throughout Europe, in India, and in Australia. “We’ve become a trusted resource for clients seeking access to the most exclusive destinations, travel hotspots, and insider networks,” he says.
