VistaJet Members are welcomed to the majestic, glaciated Altai Mountains, home to the iconic Kazakh eagle hunters, getting to know their hosts, riding on horseback with them as they hunt, learning how the young birds are trained, watching games such as ‘kukhbar’, and getting an incredible first-hand insight into this vanishing way of life.

Next, they can work with local researchers and conservationists to track the rare and endangered Mongolian snow leopard. You will assist field experts in setting up camera traps, tagging satellite tracking collars, and learning how local communities and conservationists are working together to safeguard these precious cats.

Other highlights include traditional music with local musicians, an impromptu ‘dombra’ concert, a Naadam festival, and Mongolian archery; climbing to the top of the Khongoryn Els dunes in the Gobi Desert; and a camel ride to the Flaming Cliffs of Bayanzag, the world’s largest dinosaur graveyard.

The land of superlatives — Greenland with EYOS

The earth’s largest island is also the least densely populated country. It contains the world’s largest and most northernly national park.

VistaJet Greenland

The longest fjord in the world is East Greenland’s Scoresby Sund (Kangertittivaq), a labyrinth of wilderness over 200 miles long. Close to 90% of Greenlanders are ethnically Inuit. It is the highest proportion by far in any of the Arctic countries.

VistaJet Members can embark on this journey of discovery by expedition yacht aboard the Nansen Explorer. With Nansen’s helicopter capabilities, guests can enjoy hours of skiing Greenland’s untracked slopes. Tenders and zodiacs allow for remote landings and remarkably close interactions with wildlife while being respectful. Paddleboards and kayaks allow up-close access to glaciers and natural floating ice and snow sculptures.

Reconnecting to nature through wellness — Bazaruto Archipelago, Mozambique
with Kisawa

Immerse into sunrise yoga and meditation on the dunes of Kisawa Sanctuary — a luxury island property nestled within 300 hectares of pristine coastal beachfront in Mozambique.

A team of dedicated chefs will prepare breakfast under the canopy, using fresh, organic produce from the Sanctuary’s wild permaculture garden, overlooking the inland Crocodile Lake.

VistaJet flyers can continue to enjoy a day of specialized wellness rituals, including a Japanese infra-red sauna and Ayurvedic massage at the dedicated Natural Wellness Center. To give thanks to nature, finish the day with beach “glamping” at Ponta Mustita, enjoying an open fire and lantern-lit shoreline.

A desert adventure — Namibia with Wilderness Safaris

VistaJet Members will start at the desert retreat, Little Kulala, enjoying nature walks and eco-sensitive quad biking through the famous Sossusvlei Desert before taking in spectacular views over the dunes from a hot air balloon.

Next, guests will venture to Hoanib Skeleton Coast Camp, where they will see an unexpected wealth of desert-adapted wildlife, including elephants and giraffes, as well as the Skeleton Coast. On this UNESCO World Heritage site, the desert meets the sea and is home to Cape fur seals in their thousands, along with carnivores like the inscrutable brown hyaena.

The last stop is Serra Cafema — set under towering trees along the Kunene River. It is one of the most remote camps in southern Africa. The highlights include respectful interaction with neighboring semi-nomadic Himba villagers boating and guided explorations into the surrounding desert.
