For over a decade, London-based Ariodante — one of the world’s most
exclusive and discreet ultra-luxury experiential travel agencies — has
been quietly pushing the limits of what is possible for a handful of
centi-millionaires and billionaires. Yet nothing about it resembles a
travel agency in the traditional sense. In truth, Ariodante is a master
craftsman of unique experiences, creating from scratch what most
do not even know is possible. Their work is not about booking luxury
hotels, chartering private jets, or sourcing what concierges can already

America in search of Columbus and the Spanish Conquistadors,
unearthing the stories of eradicated civilisations to understand how
their traditions and magic still prevail. Because each project demands
such absolute commitment, the agency undertakes only a very small
number of creations each year, working solely for a handful of ultradiscerning individuals willing to devote the resources required to ful昀椀l
their dreams.
Next spring, Ariodante is embarking on something unprecedented. For
the 昀椀rst time since its creation, it is opening a doorway to a selected few
thrill-seekers ready to step into a high-stakes adventure set to make
history, in the literal sense. After more than three years of meticulous
preparation and research, dozens of specialists working in total secrecy,
and months of delicate negotiations with historical landmarks, cultural
institutions and even military authorities, the agency is unveiling The
