Explorer of the “unGoogleable”

Dane has been a traveller since birth and has lived and worked on five continents. He joined Butterfield & Robinson in 2012 as full-time guide and has led trips everywhere from Newfoundland to Ireland and Sri Lanka. From the awe-inspiring architecture of the world’s finest hotels to the artful, homespun table settings of his epic B&R picnics, design and creativity play an integral role in his trips. Having spent years on the road as a solo backpacker and a B&R researcher, his grit and savvy on-the-ground have given him a knack for crafting ‘unGoogleable’, outside-the-box experiences that are once in a lifetime.
