Hi, I am Marc, and I am the founder of Expeditioner

With 100+ countries visited and connections to luxury hotels and cruise lines, I create unique travel experiences that big agencies can't match. I don't just book trips; I've experienced them myself!

Why did I start this business?

After visiting 100+ countries, I saw travel often defaults to generic trips and flashy hotels instead of real experiences. I founded Expeditioner to fill this gap—true luxury means deep, unique adventures that connect you with a destination’s culture and soul. Every journey should be as unique as the traveler, offering genuine, enriching experiences.

My Travel Style

My travel style is purpose-driven and deeply immersive. I avoid bucket lists, choosing instead to experience the world through its people, their stories, history, food, music, culture, and religion. For me, travel is about establishing connections and understanding the essence of a place through its human and cultural diversity.

My Expertise

With a background in law and anthropology and 20 years in global procurement, I now apply these insights as a travel advisor. Having lived in Spain, Egypt, London, and Switzerland, I speak several languages and am most at ease in Europe, the Middle East, Central Asia, and Latin America. I love cruising, alpine skiing, hiking, and exploring ancient civilizations.
