Telluride Treasures
Located in a box canyon surrounded by some of Colorado’s most rugged peaks, Telluride is a small town with a rich history that includes colorful stories of the gold rush and outlaws of the wild west. EXP hosted a multigenerational family in several residences at the stunning Element 52 Resort for a summer reunion that neither the 7- nor 70-year-olds will soon forget. When they arrived in town, the family thought they were gathering to enjoy each other’s company in a stunning mountain setting – they weren’t mistaken, but they quickly learned [...]
70th Birthday Celebration on the Colorado
Milestone birthdays are some of our favorite occasions for taking multiple generations of a family exploring. To celebrate the patriarch of this particular family turning 70, EXP crafted the perfect blend of luxury and adventure – rafting to a private, exclusive camp set up along the banks of the Colorado River in one of the most remote locations in the region. The family members arrived into Moab, Utah and were escorted to a private lunch site to be briefed on the upcoming adventure. Spring in the Southwest had sprung, and the [...]
A Private Patagonian Heli-Experience
When a client asked EXP to take his family plus a friend’s family to Patagonia over festive season, we knew we had to create not only a once-in-a-lifetime journey, but also a once-in-a-lifetime holiday memory for both families. The goal was relatively simple: to go to places that have seldom been seen and never been touched by humans. While that might sound impossible these days, the landscape and remoteness of Patagonia, at the southern end of South America, make it very feasible. Fishing rivers that have never been fished, climbing glaciers that have never had a footprint, and naming [...]
Coasts and Cultures of Colombia
Colombia is a nation of magical realism, with the famous monuments of Cartagena de Indias, Barranquilla’s Carnival, and the most spectacular river in the world – Caño Cristales. From bustling city streets to vast salt mines, arid deserts to coastal lagoons, this unparalleled destination was the backdrop for an amazing 5-day, 4-night active journey for five couples seeking unique adventure. The trip started in the remote city of Santa Marta where the guests arrived from their international flight and immediately boarded helicopters, flying over Tayrona National Park before landing at a private [...]
Secrets of the National Parks
This roving journey’s objective was to uncover the true secrets of the national parks. Of course a visit to multiple parks was on the itinerary, but so were meetings with experts from the present day and recreated from the past: a paleontologist in Arches and Canyonlands, John Wesley Powell in the Grand Canyon, and Teddy Roosevelt in Yellowstone to name a few. Seeing the parks with their own eyes while hearing the stories and perspectives from these individuals made the journey come to life for this knowledge-seeking family. Before the trip started, [...]
Pirates on the Colonial Coast
The Golden Age of Piracy (approximately 1650 to 1730) saw pirates like Blackbeard (Edward Teach), Stede Bonnet, Anne Bonny, and William Kidd frequenting the waters off the coast of what is now Charleston, South Carolina. It is rumored that William Kidd buried his treasure on a secluded beach and that only brave and cunning travelers willing to dive deep into the history, folklore, and poetic riddles of Edgar Allen Poe could uncover its location. Three generations of one family took on this challenge, spending six days and five nights following clues and [...]
