Following in the footsteps of countless writers, composers, and European royalty, the superyacht set return to the Amalfi Coast time and time again, seduced by its combination of glamor, culture, and natural beauty. Discover all the vertiginous coastline has to offer and embark on a cruise from Naples, taking in the chic islands of Capri and Ischia, the ancient ruins of Pompeii, and the hilltop towns of Amalfi, Sorrento, Positano, and Ravello before heading south to the volcanic Aeolian Islands and across the Straits of Taormina to Sicily for some land-based adventures.
Easily combined with an Amalfi Coast itinerary, Sicily has been a magnet for travelers for millennia and boasts a cultural scene like nowhere else. Spend a few nights ashore in the historic city of Palermo, staying at the Villa Igiea, a Rocco Forte Hotel. Immerse yourself in the cultural sites of Palermo before moving on to marvel at the ancient Valley of the Temples. From here head toward Sicily’s east coast for a few nights at the Villa Sant’Andrea, a Belmond Hotel – a great spot from which to take to the skies in a helicopter for a bird’s eye view over the dramatic landscapes of Mount Etna.

Spend a few days exploring the waterfront city of Vancouver before embarking on a yacht charter through Alaska’s glacial waters. Vancouver’s bustling harbor provides the perfect entry point to the wild and beautiful landscapes of the Pacific Northwest, but first, a few days exploring the cosmopolitan city is a must. Surrounded by mountains and ocean, Vancouver is a paradise for anyone who loves the outdoors. From kayaking, paddleboarding, sailing, and windsurfing to hiking and cycling, Vancouverites have everything on their doorstep. Vancouver also boasts a thriving culinary scene and a selection of cultural offerings.
Swap the bright city lights for wildlife as you embark on board SERENGETI and cruise through the Strait of Georgia. The coastline between Vancouver Island and the mainland is thick with islands, islets, and sounds. Head to the northeast coast of Vancouver Island and through the narrowing of Discovery Passage to
Nimmo Bay. Acclaimed for its excellent fly fishing, this is the place to go for some of the best heli-fishing in the world. The rivers are alive with fish and there are dozens to choose from, including Rainbow and Steelhead trout (for skilled fly-fishers), Dolly Varden, char, and all salmon varieties. Spend a few nights at the Nimmo Bay Wilderness Resort – available on an exclusive basis if required – for the ultimate wilderness adventure.
