Apsley Travel · Bespoke Luxury Travel
An escorted tour, done well, is the most intellectually rewarding way to travel. The right scholar — an art historian in Italy, an Egyptologist on the Nile, a naturalist in the Galapagos — transforms a destination. Our small-group escorted tours run with maximum 12–16 guests, led by leading academics, novelists and naturalists. We work with our own private specialists and with selected partners (Andante Travels, Cox & Kings, Steppes) on bespoke and small-group itineraries. We can also arrange private departures of any escorted itinerary — your party only, your dates, your scholar.
