Travel beautifully. Travel intentionally.
01
Before You Begin

Luxury travel begins
with understanding.

There is no single definition of luxury travel. For one traveler, it may mean a private villa and complete seclusion. For another, it may mean walking through Petra with an exceptional guide before the crowds arrive.

At Chaya Voyages, every journey begins with listening. We learn how you like to travel, what matters to you, and what you want the journey to feel like.

“The greatest luxury is having a journey designed around you.”
I

Personal

Your itinerary begins with your preferences, not a pre-designed package.

II

Considered

Every hotel, experience, transfer, and detail is selected with intention.

III

Seamless

From your first conversation through your return home, your journey is thoughtfully coordinated.

Frequently Asked

What would you like
to know?

We've gathered the questions travelers most often ask before beginning a bespoke journey with Chaya Voyages.

A luxury travel designer creates a personalized journey around your preferences, rather than asking you to choose from a standard package. At Chaya Voyages, this can include accommodations, private guides, transportation, dining, cultural experiences, cruises, aviation, villas, and special arrangements. The goal is to make the entire experience feel cohesive and unmistakably yours.
Online platforms are useful for researching possibilities, but a bespoke travel designer brings the pieces together. We help determine what is actually right for you, coordinate multiple suppliers, arrange special experiences, and remain a personal point of contact throughout the journey.
It begins with a conversation. We learn about your destination, dates, travelers, interests, preferred pace, and what you want from the experience. We then create a bespoke itinerary, refine it with you, coordinate the arrangements, and remain available throughout your journey.
Travel design and planning fees can vary depending on the complexity of your journey and the level of service required. During the initial conversation, we can explain the applicable planning arrangements before moving forward. Our focus is on creating meaningful value through thoughtful design, access, expertise, and seamless execution.
We believe luxury should feel personal rather than excessive. Our journeys are built around your rhythm, your desires, and your vision. We combine personal attention with a global network of luxury travel partners and carefully selected experiences. Every itinerary is considered as a complete story rather than a collection of bookings.
Yes. Chaya Voyages designs journeys across Europe, the Mediterranean, Middle East, Africa, Asia, North and South America, Australia, and beyond. Our destination collection continues to grow based on the journeys our travelers want to experience.
Earlier is generally better for complex journeys, peak-season travel, private villas, suites, cruises, and experiences with limited availability. That said, we understand that travel sometimes comes together closer to departure. Tell us what you're considering and we'll advise you on the possibilities.
Both. We specialize in private and tailor-made journeys for couples, families, solo travelers, friends, celebrations, and executive groups. We can also coordinate selected group experiences when they are the right fit for your journey.
Chaya Voyages is an independent affiliate of Fora Travel. This gives us access to a broad professional network and relationships with luxury hotels, cruise lines, destinations, and other travel partners, allowing us to offer our clients carefully selected options and available partner benefits.
Absolutely. Depending on the destination, we can coordinate private guides, culinary experiences, cultural encounters, archaeological visits, wellness experiences, special access, private transportation, and other experiences designed around your interests.
Yes. We can design cruise journeys as part of a larger bespoke itinerary, including pre- and post-cruise stays, suites, private shore experiences, transfers, and additional arrangements around the sailing.
Yes. When appropriate for the journey, we can coordinate private aviation options as well as other premium air and ground transportation arrangements. Aviation is considered as part of the complete journey rather than as an isolated booking.
Yes. Honeymoons, anniversaries, milestone birthdays, family celebrations, reunions, and other important occasions can all be designed as bespoke journeys. We pay particular attention to the details that make the occasion feel personal.
Yes. Accommodation is selected according to your travel style, priorities, destination, and overall itinerary. We consider location, privacy, service, character, room category, and available partner benefits rather than simply selecting a property because it carries a luxury label.
We'll begin with a conversation about your plans. There is no need to have every detail decided. We'll learn what matters to you, answer your questions, discuss possibilities, and determine the best way to shape the journey from there.
Because the most memorable journeys rarely come from following someone else's itinerary. Bespoke travel gives you the freedom to determine the rhythm, depth, comfort, privacy, and experiences that matter to you. The result is not simply a vacation, but a journey that belongs to you.
The Chaya Approach

Not more travel.
Better travel.

We don't believe luxury is about adding more. It is about choosing better.

The right hotel. The right guide. The right table. The right moment. The right pace.

  • Personal consultation before itinerary design
  • Tailor-made journeys rather than standard packages
  • Carefully selected luxury accommodations
  • Private guides and meaningful local experiences
  • Seamless transportation and logistics
  • Personal attention from beginning to return home
Beyond The Booking

The journey is more
than where you go.

It's how you experience it. Who you meet. What you discover. What stays with you long after you've returned home.

Still Have a Question?

your journey.

Every traveler is different, and no FAQ can answer everything. If you have a question, an idea, or simply a destination you've been dreaming about, we'd love to hear from you.
