Fly privately with Victor and arrive effortlessly at these hideaways, where discretion can be almost guaranteed.
Douro Valley, Portugal
How to get there: Fly into Porto’s Francisco de Sá Carneiro Airport (OPO) and let Victor arrange a luxury ground transfer—just an hour’s drive into the heart of Portugal’s celebrated wine country.
Tucked away in northern Portugal, the Douro Valley is a haven of rolling vineyards, dramatic bluffs, and centuries-old wine making tradition. This UNESCO World Heritage region is best explored at a leisurely pace—whether hiking through terraced vineyards, kayaking along the serene Douro River, or indulging in Michelin-starred cuisine paired with world-class port. Here, history is woven into the landscape, from Paleolithic rock paintings to Roman-planted vines, ensuring an immersive experience in one of Europe’s most breathtaking wine regions.
Spetses, Greece
How to get there: Fly to Athens International Airport (ATH), then opt for a high-speed ferry or a seamless Victor-arranged helicopter transfer for the ultimate arrival experience.
For those seeking the allure of the Greek isles without the flashbulbs of Mykonos or Santorini, Spetses is a best-kept secret. A long-time retreat for European royalty, the island maintains an air of timeless elegance, attracting A-listers like Nicole Kidman and Claudia Schiffer. It was also the cinematic backdrop for Daniel Craig and Edward Norton’s Glass Onion. With its car-free cobbled streets, neoclassical mansions, and crystal-clear waters, Spetses offers both seclusion and sophistication in equal measure.
Formentera, Balearic Islands
How to get there: Land at Ibiza Airport (IBZ), then take a ferry, charter a yacht, or request a Victor-arranged helicopter transfer for a swift and stylish arrival.
Often described as Ibiza’s tranquil sister, Formentera is where barefoot luxury takes center stage. The island’s rich history as a 1960s hippy haven is still palpable, with wellness retreats, yoga enclaves, and an easygoing atmosphere that draws those seeking respite from the modern world. Whitewashed villages, pristine beaches, and a bohemian spirit define this Balearic hideaway, making it the perfect retreat for those who value serenity as much as exclusivity.
Val d’Orcia, Tuscany
How to get there: Arrive at Grosseto Airport (GRS) and enjoy a scenic one-hour drive to Tuscany’s most picturesque valley. For those flying from within the Schengen Zone, Siena Airport offers an even closer alternative.
A landscape straight out of a Renaissance painting, Val d’Orcia is the epitome of Italian elegance. Rolling green hills, ancient hilltop towns, and the scent of cypress trees in the air create an atmosphere of pure romance. Explore Pienza’s famed Sentiero dell’Arte e dell’Anima—a walking trail lined with sculpted benches by renowned artists—or sip Brunello di Montalcino at some of Italy’s most esteemed wineries. Whether tucked away in a secluded villa or indulging in a countryside spa, this is Tuscany at its most intimate.
Rovinj, Istrian Peninsula
How to get there: Fly into Pula Airport (PUY), where Victor can arrange a luxury ground transfer—just 30 minutes to the picturesque coastal town of Rovinj.
A jewel of the Adriatic, Rovinj is where old-world charm meets understated luxury. This Croatian gem, set on the Istrian Peninsula, is famed for its Venetian architecture, cobbled alleyways, and stunning waterfront views. The region’s culinary scene is equally enticing, with truffle-laden dishes and fresh seafood taking center stage. Enjoy sunset cocktails at Primi Terreni, overlooking the superyachts in the harbor, before retreating to a five-star hideaway where exclusivity is a given. For those who crave adventure, Istria’s rugged coastline offers exceptional sailing, adding another layer of allure to this idyllic escape.
