Book An Ultimate Luxury Trip (With Tons Of Activities) In Just One Phone Call


Have you ever booked a stay at a five-star property, and then realized you needed to phone, fax, email and text for hours afterwards,  to make all the necessary complementary arrangements? For example, you want the services of a local photographer, or desire private surfing lessons, or even want your own fireworks show. Now there is a way to do it all at once.

And you can even get there on a private jet.

TCS World Travel, one of the world’s leading operator of private jet expeditions, and a high-end luxury tour operator,  now specializes in offering private bespoke trips for individuals and families.   The company  just announced a new all-inclusive residential-stays program, Private Homes Plus. The new service offers residential home stays in luxury vacation rentals, exclusive activities, and all air and on-the-ground travel in one complete booking arranged through TCS World Travel’s experienced Luxury Custom Travel consultants. “Everything we do is bespoke and custom and very  high-end,” says Becky Youman, director of communications. “It makes life so easy, and our travelers  have the resources to make life easy. We do it for them in a very special way.”

 Shelley Cline, president of TCS World Travel added, “We know that many of our guests’ vacations and family gatherings have been upended this year. And, as they consider getting together with their loved ones, the logistics of what might normally be a simple trip are suddenly much more complicated. With our new Private Homes Plus program we are able to leverage experience and knowledge built from developing hundreds of trips for over 25 years, along with our curated portfolio of properties in North America, to design a hassle-free vacation. We offer guests the ease of making one booking through one point of contact who will arrange everything guests desire for their homestay, for any occasion.” 

Ms. Youman added,  “That is our big different point for us – we do everything once in the point of contact, for one fee,” she added. ‘We have been doing this for 25 years with our jet expeditions – it’s part of our DNA and we’re expanding this now to individuals.”

Liz Boudreau, the manager of product development, also spoke to me. She said, “The benefit of booking with us is that we have our dedicated travel consultants – your one point of contact…everything happens with one person with one point of contact for all of your travel needs. It starts with booking a private home,  and private jet, but winds up that you plan everything with us, right down to bike rentals, kitchens stocked with special goodies, babysitting services – things that make the experience whole.”

 With TCS World Travel’s extensive destination expertise and understanding of its guests’ high expectations, a TCS Luxury Custom Travel consultant will match guests with the perfect home for their all-inclusive luxury getaway, drawing from TCS’ curated portfolio of properties. Whether guests want beach, mountains or culture, TCS will find the right home for guests in select locations around North America. TCS will take care of everything from beginning to end and arrange all transportation—including private jet travel from guests’ home to the destination they desire; a luxury private home; housekeeping and meal services; massage services; childcare where available; and private activities and excursions.

Private jet travel is customized – so you can take light jet aircraft  — Cessna, Learjet, Gulfstream and more — from your home to a private  luxury home.  Adds Ms. Youman, “We can accommodate two people, or as many as 35 or more.”

 From boarding a vintage wooden sleigh from your cozy cabin in Jackson Hole to embarking on a classic winter mountain experience, including a private lunch; to relaxing at a hidden beach-front villa near Puerto Vallarta, accessible only by boat, keeping an eye out for the humpback whale migration; to enjoying a pop-up family dinner with a celebrated chef at your rental home in San Miguel de Allende followed by a personal fireworks show – TCS will make it possible from beginning to end.

Other high-end experiences might include children’s parties with puppet shows and pinatas, and a private jet excursion to the Yucatan peninsula, including swimming in cenotes – completely natural cave pools. “It’s a magical experience and then you go back to your private home and your safety bubble,”  Ms. Youman added. “We have also done great things in the National Parks – private star-gazing experiences, special tours of National Parks such as Yellowstone, or a private lunch on your own boat on Lake Powell in Arizona.”

TCS is able to arrange private home services in over 10 destinations throughout North America, including Mexico, Wyoming, Montana, Idaho, Utah, California, Hawaii,  The Hamptons, Colorado, and Maine. The company is focused on growing its Private Homes Plus service initially in North America, and will expand its offering to additional destinations worldwide such as Italy, Spain, and the UK as the destinations open up to U.S. travelers.

 Now you can focus on relaxing and time with loved ones while TCS arranges “surprise and delight” experiences. Who doesn’t love that? Here’s to a hassle-free homestay!
