Our Atlas

Eleven countries.
One maison.

We do not cover a region. We compose within one. What follows is the full atlas — the countries we work in most, the door we know to knock on in each.

  1. United Arab Emirates

    01 · United Arab Emirates

    Capital · Abu Dhabi

    United Arab Emirates

    October – April

    A federation of seven emirates, each with its own rhythm. We move you between them as if you were a guest of the ruling families themselves.

    A Signature Encounter

    A private floor at the Bvlgari, with a chef flown in from Paris for the week. A morning falconry lesson at the Dubai Creek Club, with a master falconer and his birds. An after-hours visit to the Louvre Abu Dhabi, with the museum's chief curator.

  2. Sultanate of Oman

    02 · Sultanate of Oman

    Capital · Muscat

    Sultanate of Oman

    October – March

    The quietest of the Gulf states, and the most generous. Mountains, frankincense, a coastline the world has not yet found.

    A Signature Encounter

    Two nights in a restored Nizwa fort with the family's permission. A Bedouin table set deep in the Wahiba, lit by a thousand candles. A dawn sail through the Musandam fjords aboard a 19-metre dhow.

  3. Kingdom of Saudi Arabia

    03 · Kingdom of Saudi Arabia

    Capital · Riyadh

    Kingdom of Saudi Arabia

    October – March

    A kingdom opening in private. The Nabataean tombs of Hegra, the incense road, the Red Sea as it was 1,500 years ago.

    A Signature Encounter

    A private dawn ascent of Hegra with the site's chief archaeologist, before any other visitor. A two-night stay at Habitas AlUla's Royal Caravan tent. A seaplane to the Red Sea, where a private island has been arranged.

    Compose in Kingdom of Saudi Arabia →
  4. Hashemite Jordan

    04 · Hashemite Jordan

    Capital · Amman

    Hashemite Jordan

    March – May, September – November

    Petra, the Dead Sea, the Roman cities of the Decapolis. A small country with a thousand doors — and we have keys to most.

    A Signature Encounter

    The Treasury in candlelight, with no other soul in the Siq. A dawn balloon over Wadi Rum, with a Bedouin chef waiting below. A private lunch with one of Jordan's great calligraphers in his Amman atelier.

    Compose in Hashemite Jordan →
  5. Arab Republic of Egypt

    05 · Arab Republic of Egypt

    Capital · Cairo

    Arab Republic of Egypt

    October – April

    The Nile, the temples, the libraries. We arrange access that even most Egyptians never see.

    A Signature Encounter

    A private viewing of the Grand Egyptian Museum's Tutankhamun galleries before opening. A five-night sail on a 12-suite dahabiya. A dawn visit to Abu Simbel, before the heat and the crowds.

    Compose in Arab Republic of Egypt →
  6. Kingdom of Morocco

    06 · Kingdom of Morocco

    Capital · Rabat

    Kingdom of Morocco

    March – May, September – November

    The medinas, the Atlas, the Atlantic. A country that knows exactly how to host, and a maison that knows it well.

    A Signature Encounter

    A private riad in the Marrakech medina, with a hammam, a calligrapher, and a souk visit after closing. A three-night retreat in the High Atlas. A final four nights on the Atlantic coast at the Royal Mansour Tamuda Bay.

    Compose in Kingdom of Morocco →
  7. Lebanese Republic

    07 · Lebanese Republic

    Capital · Beirut

    Lebanese Republic

    April – June, September – November

    The cedars, the Mediterranean, a city that has refused, for forty centuries, to be dull.

    A Signature Encounter

    A restored 19th-century palace in the Achrafieh, with a private chef and a wine list of the country's best-kept secrets. A two-night retreat in the Cedars, with a hike to the oldest trees on the mountain. A private evening at the Sursock Museum, after closing.

    Compose in Lebanese Republic →
  8. State of Qatar

    08 · State of Qatar

    Capital · Doha

    State of Qatar

    November – March

    A peninsula with ambition, a souk that has not yet been overrun, and a desert that begins fifteen minutes from the corniche.

    A Signature Encounter

    A private majlis dinner with one of the Pearl-Qatar's most discerning collectors. A falconry morning in the Inland Sea, with the country's senior falconer. A two-night stay on a private island off the coast, arranged by introduction.

    Compose in State of Qatar →
