  • Epic Road is a bespoke luxury travel company that provides the curious with immersive travel experiences that combine the planet’s great adventures with thought provoking humanitarian and conservation initiatives.

  • We believe that travel is more than just a break from the monotony... that luxury is more than just high thread counts and single malt scotches... that adventure is more than just high octane sports. We believe that travel is the window through which you can see the corners of the earth in all their majesty... that luxury is access to the planet's most remote jungles and beaches, rarest species and most remarkable tribes... and that adventure is the awareness that if you seek out the world's great treasures you will experience magic. It is our hope that through exposure to the planet’s great treasures, you will truly appreciate their majesty and value their preservation and conservation. We believe that through immersion comes transformation.

  • Epic Road is for passionate individuals seeking authentic luxury adventure travel as well as charities and socially conscious companies seeking to connect their local supporters with their international projects.

  • Epic Road specializes in planning donor and board trips for charities and socially conscious companies seeking to connect their local supporters with their international projects. These charities often seek to create itineraries that showcase their projects but given the long distances that their donors must travel, the charities seek to add other unrelated experiences to make the trip more enjoyable, meaningful and inspiring in order to increase the likelihood that their donors will attend and support the organization going forward. As travel is not a core competency of these charities and there is liability exposure inherent in executing these trips, Epic Road will manage all travel logistics such as lodging, transportation, translators and security and create special add-ons like beachside decompressions, safaris, city tours and tribal visits so that the charity can focus on readying its projects for the visit and soliciting future support and donations. Epic Road generally makes its profit from its suppliers thereby eliminating additional costs to the charity or donors for its services. Epic Road also provides 24-hour customer support to ensure that if anything doesn’t go as planned, we can get things back on track quickly.

  • We are all about luxury and adventure, but what makes us different is that we pair these adventures with meaningful educational and philanthropic experiences led by conservationists, scientists and reputable charities. While on safari, you can visit a local orphanage and play soccer with the children or break bread with a local tribe and learn about their traditions. While exploring glaciers, you can trek with a climate change scientist and learn on-site about glacial retreat. Epic Road works with handpicked travel companies and charities around the world to tailor your experience. We want to excite you, thrill you and elevate your awareness. We want you to see the world, meet its people, summit its peaks, explore its jungles and bathe in its sun. We want to create a trip that makes you feel alive with the right blend of adventure, immersion, education, comfort and safety... a trip that focuses on exploration and enjoyment yet blends in experiences that broaden your perspective of humanity and the environment. We like to call it “transformative travel”.

  • Yes. The destinations on the website are simply a teaser to get you excited! Epic Road’s founders and staff are fanatical travelers and have been to all seven continents and over 100 counties. We pride ourselves on planning trips in areas we know well and we know a lot more than what is on the website. If you are interested in a destination not on the website, shoot us an email at hello@epicroad.com and tell us. If we know it and can plan a special trip for you, we will. If we don’t, we are partners with the best travel specialists in the industry and it would be our pleasure to refer you.

  • We generally do not arrange visas as it is more efficient (and often required) for our travelers to arrange them on their own. Often visas can be obtained upon arrival in the destination country.

  • That’s what we do! Luxury and adventure mean different things to different people, and there are a variety of ways to experience them. Our travel experts will take the time to understand what luxury and adventure specifically mean to you and custom tailor a bespoke journey that meets you expectations and exceeds your wildest dreams.

  • You will work closely with one of our travel experts to create the journey of your dreams. Our travel experts each specialize in certain destinations and have traveled extensively to stay up to date on our offerings. Our travel experts are fanatical about travel and are dedicated to making sure that your journey exceeds your expectations. To provide you with the best possible itinerary, it is important that you are clear, honest and upfront about your likes, dislikes and expectations. Like any relationship, communication is key... tell us who you are... ask questions.

    To get started, we will work with you to choose the best dates for your international flights. Once you have booked those flights on your preferred airline, we'll take care of the rest!
