A Journey Written
for One Traveler.
Explorify was founded in New York in 2020 on a simple belief: the finest journeys are never found in a catalog. They are designed, through deep local knowledge, lasting relationships on the ground, and attention to every detail that most travelers never see.
As a New York-led boutique travel company, we work with a carefully chosen group of travelers from the United States, Europe and the UK. We begin by listening: your pace, your passions, what moves you, and what you want to carry home.
Every itinerary is exclusive to you. No group departures, no shared vehicles, no off-the-shelf packages. Your journey, your way, supported at every step by specialists who have seen the places they recommend with their own eyes.
"The world is wide. Your time is short. We make every day count."
Personally Vetted
Every lodge, camp and guide we recommend has been visited by our own team first. We do not recommend what we have not seen.
Truly Bespoke
No two Explorify journeys are alike. Each one starts from a blank page and is shaped by your interests, your pace and your vision.
Trusted Local Networks
Long-standing relationships with carefully selected guides, lodges and operators give you access to experiences that are hard to arrange alone.
End-to-End Care
From the moment you inquire to the moment you return home, your dedicated journey specialist is available around the clock — wherever you are in the world.

Questions, answered
What is Explorify?
Explorify is a boutique luxury travel company based in New York that designs fully bespoke, private journeys across 60+ destinations in Africa, Asia, Europe, the Arctic and Oceania. Every itinerary is built from a blank page. There are no off-the-shelf packages, group departures or shared vehicles.
What makes Explorify different from other luxury travel agencies?
Explorify pairs every client with a dedicated regional specialist — someone with lived experience in your destination — who builds a completely custom itinerary from scratch. You work with the same person from the first conversation to the day you return home. Every lodge, camp, guide and experience we recommend has been personally visited and vetted by our team. No templates, no outsourcing, no automated booking.
How much does a bespoke journey with Explorify cost?
Our journeys typically start from $5,000 per person, with most clients investing between $10,000 and $30,000+ per person for immersive, multi-week experiences. We work across all budgets within the luxury tier and always design to maximise value at your chosen level.
How far in advance should I book a luxury safari or expedition?
We recommend booking 6–12 months in advance for peak-season Africa safaris and polar expeditions, as premium lodges and expedition vessels fill quickly. For more flexible itineraries, 3–6 months is usually sufficient. We can accommodate shorter lead times when availability allows.
Does Explorify handle flights and visas?
Yes. We manage all logistics end-to-end including international and connecting flights, airport transfers, visas where applicable, travel documentation, travel insurance guidance, and 24/7 in-journey emergency support.
Which destinations does Explorify cover?
We cover 60+ destinations across Africa (Kenya, Tanzania, Rwanda, South Africa, Morocco and more), Asia (Japan, India, Bhutan, the Maldives, Thailand and more), the Arctic and Antarctica (Iceland, Norway, Svalbard, the Antarctic Peninsula), and Oceania (Australia, New Zealand, French Polynesia).
Does Explorify work with companies and travel agents?
Yes. Explorify designs bespoke corporate incentive and reward journeys for teams, and offers luxury destination-management partnerships to travel agencies in Europe, the UK and the USA.
Can I contact Explorify on WhatsApp?
Yes. Our team is available 24/7 on WhatsApp at +1 (431) 533-9900 for journey planning, enquiries, and in-trip support. You can also email us at [email protected].
