WHO WE ARE
At aLIVE, we are creative directors of extraordinary journeys, events, and legacy projects.
Our work transcends traditional planning—it’s about curating transformative experiences that connect you deeply to the world and yourself. Every moment is crafted with intention, recognising that time is life’s most precious luxury. From remote expeditions to timeless celebrations and purpose-driven legacy projects, we design experiences rooted in authenticity, storytelling, and meaningful connection.
A LETTER FROM THE FOUNDER
“Experience in the luxury industry across multiple sectors and a deep search for authenticity have naturally led me into the realm of experiential travel—or, as I like to call it, experiential living. A passion for learning. A passion for being fully present in the moment. Curiosity. Devotion. And above all, a love for life. Living. Fully. Every. Moment. Here. Now.
This passion evolved into what is now aLIVE Experiences: a space where unique, immersive, and transformative journeys come to life. A concept launched and led by someone who doesn’t just love life but loves living it.
We are travelers. Explorers. Adventurers. But we are also students of life: culture-curious, multi-sensory beings in search of intellectual and emotional connection. This is where aLIVE steps in—to provide the resources, the access, and the vision.
Blending wilderness with culture, we spark curiosity about the world we live in and a deep awareness of how we spend our greatest luxury: our time. We go beyond the map and beyond expectations, crafting moments that awaken a sense of freedom and what it means to feel truly aLIVE.”

PHILOSOPHY
“Time is your most precious luxury. How you spend it defines the moments that truly matter.”
At aLIVE, we believe that luxury is expected—it’s a given. Exceptional service, world-class accommodations, and seamless logistics are the foundation. But for us, true luxury goes far beyond that. It’s about the experience: authentic, immersive, and transformative.
We see travel as more than just a journey—it’s a gateway to exploring the world, life, and the human spirit. Whether it’s an extraordinary journey to a hidden destination, a timeless celebration of life’s milestones, or a legacy project that leaves an enduring impact, our philosophy is rooted in creating meaningful connections and unforgettable moments.
Our approach is to go beyond the map and beyond expectations, blending culture, creativity, and precision to craft experiences that resonate deeply. By focusing on authenticity and the stories that unfold in each moment, we help you celebrate, explore, and live fully—in the here and now.
The most valuable thing you own is your time. Once spent, you never get it back. We believe in spending it fully—surrounded by those who matter most, immersed in experiences that enrich the soul, and in places that inspire wonder. At aLIVE, we help you reclaim time in the most meaningful way possible—by turning it into moments that will last forever.
PARTNERSHIPS
Unlocking Possibility Through Collaboration.
At aLIVE, the extraordinary is only possible through collaboration. Our global network spans industries—yachting, aviation, conservation, gastronomy, and design—allowing us to craft experiences that go beyond traditional travel. These partnerships open doors to unparalleled access, groundbreaking creativity, and seamless execution.
Cross-Industry Collaboration
Collaboration is at the heart of everything we do. By partnering with leading experts across a range of industries—including conservation, fashion, film, gastronomy, and beyond—we create experiences that transcend traditional boundaries. These cross-disciplinary partnerships provide unique insights, behind-the-scenes access, and opportunities to connect with innovators shaping their fields, allowing us to design transformative journeys that are both deeply personal and entirely exclusive.
Granting Unrivalled Access
At aLIVE, we offer access that cannot be bought—doors opened through trust and long-standing relationships with property owners, conservation pioneers, cultural leaders, and innovators. From private estates and untouched natural reserves to hidden cultural gems, we curate moments that are as exclusive as they are meaningful. What sets this access apart is the opportunity to meet the people behind these places, hear their stories, and connect with the passion and vision that define them. These are not just visits—they are immersive, one-of-a-kind experiences that leave a lasting impact.
Global Logistics Support
Our ability to deliver exceptional service lies in the strength of our partnerships. We collaborate with the best in every field—from military-grade logistics professionals and local operators to trusted private aviation and yachting providers. Supported by this global network, we ensure that every detail is flawlessly executed, whether navigating remote wildernesses, hosting celebrations in heritage estates, or coordinating multi-modal journeys. Working with the right people ensures that our clients experience only the very best.
