Viajes Planeta Azul

One thing is to go on vacation. Another is to go on a journey.

Forget checking monuments off a list, stopping at the same instagrammed view for just long enough to snap a picture or relying on an audio-guide at a museum… A Planeta Azul experience based holiday ditches the tourism clichés, instead creating truly unforgettable moments and emotions, guided by experts. That’s the difference between an average holiday, and true travel. And that’s the difference between a travel agency and Planeta Azul. But don’t just take our word for it. We’ve put together real case studies that show rather than tell why our tailor made experiences are truly a world apart. Head to ‘Destinations’ to discover for yourself.

At Planeta Azul travel we believe there are two types of traveller. On one hand there are those who want a tailor-made experience, put together by local partners and guides who know the lay of the land, are true experts in the local wildlife, and aware of and respectful of local customs and traditions. And on the other, those who don’t care about any of the above, as long as the price is low.

How do we know that your trip will be so special? Simple: We’ve experienced it ourselves.

If you identify with the former, then Planeta Azul is for you.

Imagine an African Safari where rather than jockeying for position to catch a glimpse, you could be standing just meters away from one of the last remaining mountain gorilla families on the planet; close enough to hear them breathe, see them socialize and truly experience the power and majesty of these incredible creatures.

Or how about being transported to Okavango Delta, one of the most diverse and awe-inspiring ecosystems on the planet; taking a walk through the oldest desert on Earth, or get to witness the largest land-migration on the planet, surrounded by over a million gnu’s and zebras, seeing first hand how they cross a stretch of river populated by hundreds of crocodiles, who’ve been waiting for this moment for months. And our experiences aren’t only limited to Africa.

Experience the magic of the Arctic with a local innuit guide, getting to photograph polar bears in their natural habitat, or sail over the tundra in a hot air balloon. Get up close to Grizzly Bears in Canada, watching their behaviour from just a few steps away as they fish for salmon. Elsewhere in the world, take to two wheels to discover the terraced rice paddies of Bali, enjoy a private meal in Japan, hosted by a Geisha or explore the valleys and mountains of Chilean Patagonia on horseback, as you ride through one of the most beautiful and untouched landscapes on the planet.

What makes a Planeta Azul Travel experience truly unique is that the inspiration for each holiday comes from you. Only you know the type of experience you want to have, and we make it possible, taking care of the where, when and how.

Our journeys last a lifetime

Looking for thrills? How about snowmobiling, hot-air ballooning or husky-sledding in the Arctic? Alternatively, walk on the sky at the magnificent Salar de Uyuni salt flats or come face to face with a terrifying Great White shark while diving on one of the world’s most stunning coral reefs.

If it’s exquisite gastronomic experiences you’re looking for, get ready to try some of the most refined Asian food imaginable in high class restaurants that don’t appear in any of the guide books, or expand your palate with local delicacies that might change the way you think about food entirely!

Whether it’s an inner-city experience, an out of the ordinary sailing trip or an adventure through time and history itself, the list of possibilities, across five continents, is as infinite as your imagination. Once we hear from you what you’re looking for, we’ll craft a unique holiday that will stay with you for the rest of your life. Because we know that the best travel experiences are those that shape you, that you’ll remember forever, and that inspire you to keep travelling!

It doesn’t matter if you’re in the middle of the savannah, the jungle or in the heart of the wild, at every point in your journey you’ll receive the comfort, luxury, privacy, top class attention to detail and organisation you’d expect, thanks to the exclusive lodgings and accommodations selected for you by Planeta Azul.

Because a luxury experience is only as exclusive as your surroundings

At Planeta Azul, we believe that the more extreme the experience, and more intense the emotions lived, the better you appreciate the finer things in life. Because the journey doesn’t end after a full day on Safari. Continue the adventure with a rejuvenating full body massage or beauty treatment, followed by dinner prepared by one of our skilled chefs. After dinner, unwind with top of the range leisure facilities before turning in for the night in luxury lodgings, with all the amenities you could wish for. A perfect end to a perfect day, setting you up perfectly to experience it all again tomorrow.
