Curated Pursuits: How it Works

Our Approach to Curation

Every Monarch Curated Pursuit is entirely bespoke. No two experiences are identical your interests, preferences, location, and group dynamics shape every detail. From the moment you express interest, we treat your experience as a singular project, not a standard itinerary. This means you receive personalized attention at every stage, and your experience reflects you, not a template.

Six months allows us to source the world's best experts, negotiate exclusive access with museums and private venues, and handpick every detail for your group.

❋ Genuine Curation

Clear payment milestones mean you're never caught off-guard. You'll see your full itinerary 4 months out, giving you time to plan travel and adjust any preferences before final confirmation.

❋ Your Peace of Mind

Leading curators, Michelin-starred chefs, archaeologists, and historians book months in advance. Our early timeline ensures we secure the absolute best guides for your experience.

❋ Expert Availability

If circumstances change (rare event closures, unforeseen guide unavailability), we have time to arrange equally exceptional alternatives. Your experience never compromises in quality.

❋ Flexibility Built In

The Booking Timeline We've designed our booking structure to balance certainty with flexibility, ensuring you have time to plan and we have time to curate flawlessly.

  • Submit your enquiry and discuss your vision with our curation team. Once you're ready to commit, pay a £100 booking deposit to secure your place and lock in your preferred dates.

  • You'll receive your personalized experience proposal—detailed itinerary, venues, expert guides, accommodation, and full breakdown of what's included. This is when refinements happen based on your feedback. Pay 60% of your total experience cost.

  • Final confirmations are locked in. All venues, guides, and logistics are confirmed. Pay the remaining balance of your experience cost.

  • Your official tickets and final details (arrival times, contact information, what to bring) are issued. Your experience begins to feel real.
