The annual Pelorus Adventure Agenda is a bucket list of immersive trips to experience something truly extraordinary. It’s fitting for the company, specializing in tailor-made journeys by sea and on land for a different perspective on the world. For this year’s list, the team has three yachting expeditions. One draws inspiration from the epic voyage across the Mediterranean that lies at the center of Homer’s The Odyssey. Another chases the solar eclipse across Greenland. The last unveils remarkable conservation successes in one of the remote regions on earth. Regardless of which you choose, regional and cultural experts accompany you, as do filmmakers.
The Odyssey: Turkey and Italy (July–October 2026)
The first Pelorus Adventure Agenda oceangoing journey retraces the voyage of the Greek king Odysseus in The Odyssey. Simultaneously, this trip draws inspiration from a movie by the same name by Christopher Nolan, set for release next summer. Over the course of 14 nights, you’ll sail through the Aeolian Islands and along the Amalfi Coast. You’ll further see the ancient city of Troy and Sicily’s temples, with historians and performers bringing the mythological sites to life. Overall, the experience combines land, sea, and air travel. It further combines mythology, archaeology, and special film-set access.
The Odyssey bucket list trip starts at £75,000 ($100,000) per person, based on four adults. International flights are not included.
Path of Shadow: The Solar Eclipse Voyage, Greenland (August 2026)
A total solar eclipse will occur on August 12, 2026 in Greenland, and you can be there. The 253-foot (77-meter) yacht Aqua Lares (top) will host you in East Greenland, following the eclipse’s shadow across the icy landscape. You won’t soon forget the sight of the sun disappearing and the resulting twilight over land and sea. As for the superyacht, she features 11 staterooms and vast decks ideal for viewing the soaring fjords, too. Pelorus can arrange helicopter landings on glaciers, plus chances to see wildlife like musk oxen and Arctic foxes. Remote Inuit communities are possible as well.
The journey starts at £452,000 ($610,000) per week for the yacht charter.
The Tipping Point Expedition: The Galapagos (year-round 2026)
Lastly, this Pelorus Adventure Agenda is perfect for conservation-oriented families. Scientists recently discovered two creatures in the Galapagos long believed to be extinct. Specifically, they are the Galapagos Rail, a flightless bird, and the Mares’ leaf-toed gecko, a small, nocturnal gecko. Therefore, conservation efforts are in full swing, the way they are all across the islands. The Tipping Point Expedition is your chance to participate first-hand in pioneering research projects. For example, you can help scientists protect the famous giant tortoises and monitor the shark populations. Moreover, you can snorkel with sea lions, explore volcanic reefs with abundant marine species, and hike lava formations. Your kids especially will treasure the experiences. Pelorus will provide them with a custom explorer kit and treat them to a legacy pledge ceremony.
This expedition starts at £193,009 ($259,900) for a one-week yacht charter.
All prices are exclusive of the full possible experiences and services, which Pelorus will tailor to your desires.
