“I don’t plan travel.

I design experiences.”

Hello! Welcome to my Travel Portal and your new home to Exotic Travel Destinations.


My name is Hari Iyer. Working as a banker for over 30 years in my first career, I had the privilege of living and working in more countries than most people. This exposure to various cultures and what I experienced and learned from it motivated me to travel even more outside of work. I have set foot on all seven continents. I have not only visited some of the most exotic places on our beautiful planet but also honed my skills in planning seamless journeys, allowing me to experience the extraordinary in a uniquely personal way. I am now using that experience to help fellow travelers by crafting bespoke travel experiences that would take them into the heart of the world's wonders.


Whether you're drawn to the icy vistas of Antarctica, the Arctic wildlife of Svalbard, the Darwinian experience of the Galápagos, the rich tapestry of Asian culture, or the vibrant landscapes of Australia and New Zealand, my mission as your travel advisor would be to share my expertise and experiences in guiding you to the world's most exotic and enchanting destinations and crafting a journey that becomes a lifetime experience. I work with some of the industry's top destination management and cruise partners to create those unique experiences. I utilize their expertise and exclusive partnerships to provide unmatched access to accommodations, guides, and experiences that elevate your journey from ordinary to extraordinary.


If you're ready to explore the extraordinary and embark on a journey that speaks to your sense of adventure and curiosity, I invite you to reach out.

Our Services

Custom Journeys

My custom journeys are precisely what they promise. I create a unique experience at your chosen destination, tailored to your preferences and interests. Customization can include all aspects of travel, from arrival to departure, including personalized pickup/drop-off, number of days, your preferred hotels or class of stay, private or group activities, rest days, and more.

Curated Journeys

The curated journeys here have been carefully chosen for their uniqueness and exceptional quality, sourced from our trusted partners' offerings. Nearly all of our selected cruises are small ship cruises, which means better sightseeing, improved onboard services, and more. Each adventure is thoroughly reviewed and can be customized to some degree. We can personalize your trip for most cruises by adding a pre- or post-cruise component.
