Private Family Charters
Charter a yacht for your family vacation
In each of our lives there are milestone events that bring our treasured friends and family together. These events create some of our most lasting memories. With so many reasons to come together - reunions, weddings, anniversaries, birthdays, or retirement - we believe there is no better way to celebrate than cruising on a private yacht.
Our 12, 22 and 36 guest yachts are perfect for an experience that ensures privacy and flexibility while providing endless opportunities to simply be together with the people who mean the most to us. If there is a special event happening in your life, we invite you to sail away on a private yacht cruise with us. Families traveling with between 10 -22 or 36 to 40 extended family members will find a yacht that is suitable for their private cruise. The Safari Explorer is available for charter in Alaska or Rivers of the West. The Safari Spirit is available for charter in Alaska, Mexico's Sea of Cortés, Rivers of the West, Pacific Northwest/British Columbia. The Safari Quest is available for charter in Alaska. Each yacht provides an intimate inclusive private family cruise experience.
