Private Icebreaker
Norway
"In twenty years of luxury travel, nothing has come close to this — a private audience with the president of Rwanda, dinner with the royal family in Bhutan, the best of the best hotels around the world. But it was the people around the table each night that made it something we'll carry for the rest of our lives."

The Arctic on Eric Schmidt's Private Icebreaker
.avif)
Your private tender pushes into drifting pack ice north of the 80th parallel - beyond shipping lanes, beyond signal, beyond anywhere most expedition companies are willing to go. These are the hunting grounds of the Arctic's apex predator. Few humans have ever been here.
BX sets a table where no table has ever been. A multi-course Nordic tasting menu served against a live-calving glacier front under a sun that refuses to set. No restaurant, no reservation, no repeat. This evening exists once.
Strip down and plunge into Arctic waters surrounded by pack ice, midnight sun, and absolute silence. It lasts seconds. You'll talk about it for the rest of your life.

The journey is curated. So is the company.
Every traveler is personally vetted. We don't just curate destinations — we curate the room. Past groups have included founders, investors, and leaders who arrived as strangers and departed planning their next journey together.

Common Questions
Everything you need to know before departure
No two days are alike. One morning begins with a military helicopter over Rwanda's volcanic highlands. The next, with a descent into a tomb untouched for millennia. What remains constant is the standard of care: world-class accommodations, every detail attended to, and nothing asked of you but to be present.
Most private jet itineraries are built around observation. Ours are built around immersion. Guests have rowed alongside Olympians off Easter Island, trekked to gorilla families by military helicopter, and entered chambers in Egypt that had not seen light in 3,000 years. The access is genuine, and the experiences are designed for those who wish to be at the centre of it, not at a distance.
Our guests tend to be in their 40s, 50s, and 60s. Founders, principals, and leaders who are still deeply engaged in what they do and bring that same energy to how they travel. Every traveler is personally considered for group compatibility, because the quality of the company is as essential as the quality of the destinations.
Express your interest through this page and a member of our guest relations team will be in touch personally within 48 hours. Every traveler is reviewed to ensure the right fit. Seats, suites, and preferred experiences are honoured in order of registration, so those who confirm earliest receive first consideration.
We design for people who want to move, not just observe. Past journeys have included glacier ascents, horseback safaris, rowing competitions, and gorilla treks. Health and wellness are woven throughout the entire experience, from nutrition-focused menus and curated fitness opportunities to recovery and restoration between destinations. That said, every excursion is entirely optional, and our team arranges equally thoughtful alternatives for those who prefer a different pace.
