Set Sail with your B&R Crew
In naval speak, "small ship" means 300 passengers. We think 30 is a far better size. We choose ships that moor in the tiniest island ports and yachts that cruise into inlets that larger vessels can't touch. That way we can deliver you to the most amazing offshore playgrounds (and keep you a good distance from the crowds).
On any day you might swim in a sea so blue you'll want to invent a new colour for it; bike through an ancient olive grove; spend the afternoon in a quiet cafe or simply enjoying drinks on deck. We've re-invented cruising. From the cultural mosaic of the Mediterranean Sea to the pristine wilderness of the Galapagos Islands, we make sure your journey is deep, engaging and a whole lot of fun.
Desolation Sound
No roads? Perfect. Our ships can take you to inlets and islands you can’t get to any other way. Even better, you’ll likely be the only ones there.
Skim along the Turquoise Coast
And start each day with yoga from the deck of your luxury gulet. Come away from our Turkey wellness experience feeling rejuvenated and inspired by this region’s untold natural beauty.
The Greek Islands
“We loved hiking and biking through beautiful islands and swimming in secluded spots, and always felt a million miles away from the tourists—as if the islands were our private playground.”
Travelling by Sea
We’ve always appreciated what slowing down can do to your sense of discovery, and a boat perfectly manifests that pace.
Go Bespoke.
Return Bespeechless.
We choose the finest small ships in each region to perfectly match the specifications of your group and the waterways you are exploring. Then we fill it with a ship-shape crew whose only mission is to indulge you.
