Our Philosophy
Martins Travel was founded on a single conviction: that the finest travel experiences on earth are not purchased through brochures or booked through portals. They are arranged through relationships — with the hotelier who holds one suite in reserve, with the guide who has spent thirty years in the same landscape, with the government official who permits after-hours access to a site that closes to the public at five.
Our clients are not looking for five-star hotels. They live in them. They are looking for the private gorilla tracking permit that is genuinely exclusive; the sushi counter in Tokyo that does not take public reservations; the Antarctic camp where six pods sit on a polar plateau 400 kilometres from the nearest human settlement. These things exist. We know exactly where they are.
We have been placing clients in places that do not appear on any map of travel for over twenty years.
— Martin, FounderHow We Work
Every journey begins with a conversation. Not a form, not a questionnaire — a conversation with a Martins Travel advisor who has been to the places you are considering, and who understands what distinguishes the remarkable from the merely excellent.
The experiences that define a journey cannot be purchased at the standard rate. After-hours museum access, private gorilla tracking permits, the sushi counter that does not take public reservations — these are arranged through relationships built over twenty years.
A Martins Travel concierge is reachable at every hour in every destination. The transfer is confirmed before you land. The table is held until you arrive. Nothing is left to chance, because chance is not a luxury that our clients purchase.

DiscoverClient Voices
“Martins arranged access to Machu Picchu at 5:45am — forty-five minutes before the gates opened. We had the entire sanctuary to ourselves. I have been travelling privately for thirty years. Nothing has come close to that morning.”
“The Tawaraya Ryokan in Kyoto has an eighteen-month waiting list. Martins secured two rooms with a week's notice. I have no idea how. I have stopped asking and started trusting.”
“We stood at the Geographic South Pole at sunrise. Seven of us. The sun circled overhead without setting. My guide said: at this moment, every direction is north. That sentence has followed me home.”
Private Enquiries
