The World of Butterfield & Robinson

When we craft trips, we begin with local character—the je ne sais quoi that gives every place a distinct personality.

George

“The Visionary”

That elusive flavour lies off-road, off-menu... off-Google.

We find it in secluded monasteries and chaotic marketplaces.

In family kitchens and ancient acacia forests. In penguin colonies and private tea ceremonies. In local cheese farms and secret alleyways. Even in some nice French gentleman's underground Champagne cellar. (Hi Anselme.)

And we're determined to share it with you. No matter how many 15thC castles, feasts with secret wine fraternities, or picnics in sun-soaked olive groves it takes.

Welcome to your new second home.

Burgundy

“The Oenophile” For those whose evenings are woefully incomplete without a well-selected vintage, Burgundy is hallowed ground. This region has been whetting its palate since the Roman era, and is mouthwatering proof that practice makes perfect. So naturally, it's B&R's first love— and second home. Stay in our pied-à-terre in historic Beaune and try our signature pairings: like cycling through verdant Côte de Nuits + dining at the Michelin-starred Le Montrachet, garden picnics + Butterfield’s own wine, or biodynamic wines + ecstatic moans.

Provence

“The Belle” With sprawling fields of fragrant lavender, Forcalquier’s incredible market, and indescribably soft sunlight that captivated the likes of Van Gogh, Matisse and Picasso, Provence’s picture-perfect beauty can seem almost unreal.

Maybe that’s why we’re drawn to the lesserknown, hidden heart of Provençale life: games of boules with our friend Bernard, nights in the magical La Bastide de Marie (a B&R exclusive), picnics at authentic oil mills, and wine tastings with friends (including the fabulous Kelly, Alain Ducasse’s former sommelier). As good at it looks? No—better.

Loire Valley

“The Blueblood” Some places are defined by understated subtlety… and some places are Loire Valley.

Studded with castles and affectionately called “the playground of kings”, everything about it is royal: royally good cycling along the stunning Loire River. Royally grand hospitality in Château du Rivau, our pal’s private residence.

Royally good dining in a Michelin-starred friend’s own home. Royally good stables of a medieval château—after the tourists leave.

And, of course, royally good wine. So good, in fact, Henri IV said it could prevent war.

(Or, we imagine, cause one...)

Normandy

“The Storyteller” With years of strife behind it, the sense of history in Normandy is as tantalizing as the fresh salt air. Between Calvados tastings, spectacular countryside rides and thrilling sand-sailing (for the kids... or the adults!), it lifts its head. But we believe the best tales are told by people, not plaques. Fortunately, our local friends—including a former resistance fighter—are brilliant, heartbreaking raconteurs. Hear stories of soul-stirring bravery, poignant loss and world-changing moments in history, and forever leave part of yourself on Normandy's historic beaches.

Rest of France

“The Flâneur” Balzac called flânerie—the act of strolling— “gastronomy of the eye.” These French regions perfectly epitomize a gentle, meandering pleasure in one’s surroundings.

Atlantic France, with its windswept coasts, intimate sailboat cruises and the occasional dinner in a B&R-privatized 17thC lighthouse.

Bordeaux and Dordogne, where mastadons and merlots deliciously merge. And Champagne, with its... well, Champagne.

(We’re sure Balzac wouldn’t object to a little gastronomy of the mouth, too.)

Northern Italy

“The Mangione” In Italian, mangione means “big eater”. It might sound endearing, but in the mouthwatering birthplace of slow food, it's also a warning.

Fortunately, that whole Atkins thing never caught on with us. So bring on the succulent ham (served in our Venetian friend’s private home), or those life-altering white truffles you found with our good-natured mushroom maven, Beppe. There’s even legendary Barolo to wash it all down. Just save some room for visual delicacies too—like the heavenly crags of the Dolomites, or Grand Canal at sunset from a gondola. Seconds? Obviously.

Southern Italy

“The Starlet” It's the Sophia Loren of B&R destinations: soaring waterfalls, ruin-topped cliffs, winding coastal trails, lemon and chestnut groves, awe-inspiring mosaics, glittering Baroque cathedrals, hazy golden beaches, and UNESCO World Heritage everything. Even the most loquacious travellers (or B&R guides—ahem) are struck speechless by Amalfi's jaw-dropping “Path of the Gods”... or, equally ravishing, Sicily's decadent cannoli. But as with any starlet, the best moments are behind-the-scenes—like shooing goats from our private mountain picnic.

“The Rustic” Da Vinci said simplicity is the ultimate sophistication. And even after repeated changes in management (the Greeks, Romans, Byzantines, Normans and Spaniards have all claimed Puglia for their own) this little region has remained simple and sweet. The most Puglian act of all? First, watch the sun rise over the Adriatic. Second, coast past Byzantine crypts, prehistoric menhirs, conical white trulli, castles and churches. Third, fill your plate with handmade pasta made cucina povera (with whatever’s on hand). Fourth, swoon.

Tuscany

“The Hedonist” Tuscany is the foremost expert in pleasure.

Yes, the big gasping kind (ancient roads, rolling green hills, sprawling vineyards, medieval fortresses bathed in yellow light), but the tiny blissful kind too: farm-fresh pasta with wild boar sauce, a gilded Giotto painting up close, or homemade dinner at an award-winning chef's villa. As an honorary Tuscan, B&R is privy to even the most sinful local customs— like dipping chunks of pecorino in fresh honey.

So put up your feet, close your eyes, and let that 2007 Brunello make your heart flutter.

Spain

“The Flirt” This region oozes with sensual charm.

In Costa Brava, sip creamy café con leche at the foot of a mountain, and melt like a Dali clock at the surrealist master's own museum. In Andalucia, eat tender jamon iberico with your fingers and soak up nine centuries of rich Spanish history. In Rioja, follow Hemingway’s legendary footsteps—or just give up and surrender to the fast-emerging wine.

Developing a crush yet? Perfect: we’ve reserved a private boat, private habaneras... even a private flamenco concert. Love at first, second, third or millionth sight.

“The Odd Fish” Bursting with colourful cachet, this region can't help but stand out. There's oddly selfdeprecating Belgium (frothy beers, troves of surrealist Magritte), whimsical Ireland (verdant hills, intimate B&R-invited ceilidhs), geologically dramatic Scotland, hearty and picturesque Holland, and downright otherworldly Iceland. So it follows that our local friends are a little unusual—including an arm-wrestling horse-wrangler, a passionate Gouda cheese maker, and a genius sheep farmer. Proof that the best things can come in slightly unconventional packages.

“The Wallflower” The bad news: these secretive, spiritual lands can feel enigmatic for even veteran travellers.

The good news: B&R’s immersion in Asia is as deep as an urn of Bhutanese butter tea. The great news: like most shy buds, Asia unfurls spectacularly. Think monastery tours from a fascinating former monk (and long-time B&R friend), sunlight falling on golden pagodas, private candlelit rituals on the winding Ganges, or bowls of aromatic mohinga in our local friend’s kitchen.

Come tense, leave tranquil and transformed.

Good thing we’ve been there for a nice chunk of the ride—Asia has been happily hosting us since 1982, long before most North Americans ventured in. Check out our beloved insider spots: Beijing’s vibrant art scene, a 500-year-old Japanese temple (reserved for B&R’s exclusive lunch!), New Zealand’s beautiful Maori culture, and (naturally) our favourite noodle stand in the world.

“The Chimera” To geneticists (and a few ancient Greeks), chimeras are a biological wonder: many creatures in one. Poignantly marked by war and struggle, Vietnam's chimeric spirit may not be apparent at first glance. But like all our favourite places, there's more than meets the eye. Soak up all of this region's kaleidoscopic beauty—like a blissful lunch along the Perfume River, dinner with royal descendants, intimate war memorials, Champagne on a private beach, an exclusive tasting with Chef Duc, sunset atop Tonle Sap, and sea-kayaking in secret caves.

Latin America

“The Sage” In mythology, the best sages are always difficult to reach. But this region’s thick Amazonian jungles, crampon-mandatory glaciers and gorgeous-but-treacherous vistas can make even determined truth-seekers feel a little wobbly. Fortunately, we know the path to this region’s figurative (and sometimes not so figurative) mountaintop. Rubberneck as Latin America unveils for you: lush cloud forests, blood-red landscapes, remote horseback journeys (cowboys included), lunch with our Argentinian friend Florencia in her 300-year-old Jesuit building, isolated glacial hikes.

“The Teacher” Like all great teachers, these regions grip you with eye-opening, perspective-altering revelations about history, geology, science—and life itself. We've hand-selected our favourite lesson plans: like the mouthwatering origins of cacao and coffee, the footsteps of Charles Darwin (and the still-thriving elderly tortoises he met personally), the circuitous paths of ancient lava tunnels, and the optimum stance for windsurfing. For the parents, some continuing education: like how to savour local Antiyal from your idyllic perch on our floating bistro.

NORTH AMERICA • BUTTERFIELD & ROBINSON

North America

“The Shapeshifter” Like a werewolf (minus the problematic eating habits), this region has a stunning capacity to transform into the wild, exotic and sublime.

No full moon needed, though. When we're not lounging in Burgundy, North America is our own personal backyard. So we know how—and where—to find sleepy towns that metamorphose into glacier-carved fjords, oceans churning with majestic orca, groundbreaking architecture, lost Viking settlements (our local friend grew up in the area), lush sun-soaked vineyards, surreal moonscapes, and even a 40,000 square foot wine cave or two. Home sweet home.

Morocco

“The Magician” With action-packed markets, multicoloured peninsulas and breathtakingly curvaceous architecture, this region has no shortage of wonders. But to us, Morocco's best magic is in places only our local friends know... like wandering the green-and-gold mountains, sipping herb-infused cocktails in a private riad, or taking little-known paths to secluded bays.

By night, be carried by camel to an off-limits Berber encampment. Feast and dance barefoot on the sand, and sleep in cloth tents under the stars. Or as we like to say, poof.

Southern Africa

“The Charmer” With shockingly cozy views of lions, elephants, cheetahs, silverback gorillas, black rhinos and other as-seen-on-TV characters, this region is a virtuoso animal charmer. (By the way, our secret beach is the perfect viewing spot for penguins and whales.) But even without the big game, we think humbling experiences with local indigenous tribes, mouthwatering South African cooking, world-class Rwandan coffee and tranquil Botswanan mokoro rides would charm a certain hiking-shoe-wearing, sunglasses-donning species just as profoundly.

“The Adventurer” These lands are perfect for travellers who want spine-tingling, high-definition escapades that skew a little more Jules Verne than Elizabeth Gilbert. In Namibia, track elusive black rhinos on foot, meet the nomadic Himba tribe, and traverse awe-inspiring mountains, valleys and canyons. In Tanzania, take a special nocturnal game drive, mingle with giraffes and hippos, and balloon over the Serengeti. Leave with exhilarating wilderness stories for the people back home.

ABBY VAN OERS

ALESSIO FRANGIONI

ALICE VANDERVOORT

AMINA ABDELJAWAD

ANTHONY WEERSING

DALE SHERROW

DANA QUINN

DANE TREDWAY

ABBY VAN OERS A proud Dutchy, Abby is a fitness expert by day and a fine Belgian beer aficionado by night. Of course, she also has the traditional B&R skills: Renaissance dancing, speed skating, and sheep shearing. AGUSTIN CALVETTI Agustin claims he’s “50% anthropologist, 50% hotelier,” but we discovered those numbers are a nefarious lie: he’s also a restaurateur, trekking guide and polyglot. Oh, and blues guitarist. ALESSIO FRANGIONI A gifted carpenter, Alessio has spent time restoring aged Italian homes. If you don’t need any cornices fixed on your trip, he’s also a trained veterinarian. (Handy when the camel breaks down.) ALEXANDRE MALLORY He can cook “the best quiche of all time” for groups of 40, do an effortless front flip (he learned it in China), and ski the Swiss Alps like a pro. He asked us to also mention his modesty. ALICE VAN DER VOORT When she’s not jabbering away in six international tongues like a possessed guide, Alice works with schoolchildren in Laos and dances on tables in Italy. AMINA ABDELJAWAD Meet Amina, our six-language-speaking Swedish adventure-seeker. She loves to get down. Not just to the depths of Lake Malawi (she’s a seasoned diver), but on the dance floors of Andalucia too.

ANGELO SCIMIA Various witnesses place Angelo in Barcelona, Amsterdam, Paris, Rome, London and his native Italy. Still unknown: the address of the topsecret gourmet restaurant he manages. ANNIK BOULVA She’s the proud holder of B&R’s “most exotic masters degree”—in Psychosocial Aspects of Sport. But we suspect it was all a ruse so she could spend more time in the saddle, hockey skates or mountains. ANTHONY WEERSING Anthony is in Hawaii living out the American dream: occasionally escaping to Japan. He practiced traditional woodworking and still gets giddy about Japanese culture and cuisine—hence his twinkling eyes. CAMILLE RIVIERE Camille splits her time between Paris, New York, and France’s vineyards. As we’ve always said: tasting and importing biodynamic French wines is a thankless task, but someone’s got to do it. CARLO PRIMIANI Carlo can usually be found literally waist-deep in Québec, restoring rivers and wetlands. But this former Dubai resident says all that engineering stuff is “mostly just a bad habit”: food is his real raison d’être. CHRIS GOODWIN One day, Chris decided he’d rather be scaling Table Mountain in South Africa than playing solitaire in a plush corner office. Many B&R trips later, he’s still terrible at solitaire. There’s a lesson in this. CHRISTINA NICK Some say she’s rehabilitating cheetahs in northern Namibia. Others insist she’s showcasing her world-renowned sculpture at an art show in Hungary. CHRISTOPHER LITT A stir-crazy cyclist, Chris has ridden clear across Canada and conquered roads in France and Switzerland. (Need a lift? He’s a former pedicab driver. Don’t tell him we told you.) CLAIR ROGERS A historic Piedmont village on idyllic Lago Maggiore, loved by Hemingway and overlooking Switzerland. That’s not a B&R trip: it’s just where Clair lives. No wonder we adore her. DALE SHERROW Based in Copenhagen, Dale is an intoxicating blend of surfer dude, MBA and cultural explorer. First explaining derivatives to aspiring economists, then debating Volnay Premier Cru with sommeliers. DANA QUINN In her former life, she was a high-octane insurance consultant. But many, many B&R trips later, she’s savouring the slightly slower life in southern France. DANE TREDWAY After wandering from Cape Town to Katmandu, Dane finally returned to Toronto for a mild-mannered life of writing and photography. (Except when he’s wearing his superhero costume. Then he’s spelunking, skiing, scuba diving and trekking.)

DANIEL BOWER He’s biked, snowboarded, scuba dived, mountaineered, bunjee jumped and Frisbee-competed his way across six continents. Despite his wild streak, he’s managed to keep practically all of his fingers and toes. DANIEL VUOTTO Born in Buenos Aires and raised in Argentina and Italy’s Capri island, Daniel loves pasta al dente and mate tea in equal measure. But it’s his boundless joy that makes us privately resent him. Sorry, Daniel. DARIUS ARJANG Errant spitballs inspire Darius to spontaneously trade teaching for guiding each summer. (That’s how we tell it, anyway.) Whipping up the notoriously finicky Sachertorte is among this guide’s proudest achievements. DENIS LUCCANTONI Still wreathed in that golden glow every former Olympian perpetually has, Denis spends his winters speed skating, teaching skiing in the French Alps, and being frustratingly down-to-earth. DIEGO GRAU Hailing from a small Castilian town, Diego left a career in biology to join B&R. “I found the pure happiness that the path brings you”, he gushes. (We call “the path” the slow road, but Diego’s new, so we’ll let it slide.) DOMINIC GIOSSAN Lately, this Renaissance man (and possessor of five degrees) has been hiking and biking in Brazil. Hear him say “Holy @#$%! Look at that bear!” in English, Spanish, Portuguese, French and Italian. EMILY HORTON We don’t know what time management sorcery Emily learned, but we’re frightened of it. While collecting psychology, French, teaching and music degrees, she visited 39 countries. And did laundry. ERIC SPONSELLER Eric has worked with HIV/AIDS affected kids in Lesotho, baked bread in New York City, and ran a successful artisan kombucha business in South Africa. We just had to have him. ERIK MITBRODT Erik’s CV is thicker than a German pancake: degrees in anthropology and law, years leading trips in Asia, Africa and more, a published book, and three languages—which he can speak while SCUBA-ing. ERIK RUTHERFORD Every time we’ve tried to visit Erik, he was living somewhere else: Paris, Toronto, Vancouver, Berlin.

ABBY VAN OERS A proud Dutchy, Abby is a fitness expert by day and a fine Belgian beer aficionado by night. Of course, she also has the traditional B&R skills: Renaissance dancing, speed skating, and sheep shearing. AGUSTIN CALVETTI Agustin claims he’s “50% anthropologist, 50% hotelier,” but we discovered those numbers are a nefarious lie: he’s also a restaurateur, trekking guide and polyglot. Oh, and blues guitarist. ALESSIO FRANGIONI A gifted carpenter, Alessio has spent time restoring aged Italian homes. If you don’t need any cornices fixed on your trip, he’s also a trained veterinarian. (Handy when the camel breaks down.)

thorns, don’t climb back on right away. Wait a few minutes.” FANNY VIRET Fanny has worked with Doctors Without Borders in the Congo, cycled through Kyrgyzstan, and now lives and studies in Lausanne. France is her backyard, so drop by for mouthwatering croquembouche anytime. FARÉS MOUSSA With a master’s, European Doctorate and PhD in religious art, Farès has enough letters after his name to start his own alphabet. Now this foodie, book collector and oenophile has two more: B&R. GIACOMO FANO Italian native Giacomo has never spent a single day in an office—so he can scale a cliff, but don’t bother asking him to fax a memo. He just wrote a book about trekking through the Rockies. GIOVANNI BETTIO A native of Venice who can both order nihonshu and apologize for the consequences in fluent Japanese, Gio is our Okinawa surfing expert. GLYN MANWARING-JONES Glyn got the travel bug’s bite as a kid, canoeing in northern Ontario. (On second thought, it may have been a mosquito.) Now he’s lived in Montreal and Brazil, and brandishes a music degree instead of bug repellent. GORANA GAVRILOV To say Gorana is a woman of the world is an understatement. She’s worked at three Olympics Games, speaks (about) nine languages and is always prepared to humiliate a fellow B&R guide at beach volleyball. IAN NEWALL An outdoorsy engineer with a business degree, veteran guide Ian Newall has returned to his second home: B&R. His third home? Beaune, where he started his family. (Collective “aww”.) IRENA OSSOLA Hailing from Northern Italy and Santa Fe, and talented in professional running and road-hungry cycling, Irena’s superhuman blend of cultures and gifts make Batman look boring. JACOPO DI LORENZO With Kenyan missions, Australian horse farms and Thai beaches under his belt, Rome-born Jacopo “Jay” Di Lorenzo is a born adventurer. He doesn’t crash a party—he paraglides into it. JACQUI GOODWIN Some claim to know Africa at a molecular level, but with a PhD in molecular biotechnology, Jacqui means it. She’s also our trusty cultural interpreter from Zulu and Xhosa to Tswana and Ndebele. JAMES BOYD A fearless climber and one of our prized in-house photographers at B&R, James is studying with one of the great photographers of Spain. (He’ll get a terrific shot of saving you from a precipice.) JEAN-LOUIS DOSS Jean-Louis thought his “little break” from a high-powered law career was just that. 10 years later, having guided gazillions of trips, he’s starting to have some doubts. JEFF CONDRY Based in Portland, Oregon, Jeff loves mountain biking, eating off his companion’s plates—usually with their permission, though not always—and everything French. JENNIFER MOORE Hitchhiking from Tibet to Nepal. Teaching English in Thailand. Living in the Jersey Islands. Running the London Marathon. Someone give this woman a book deal. JÉRÔME BORÉ Born in France, Jérôme is a true gastronome. We know, we know: utterly shocking that he wound up at B&R designing delectable, private French adventures. JORDAN BOWER Jordan’s feet have seen over 50 countries, including a 316 day solo walking trip from Canada to Mexico in 2010. But he names India as best for the sole. (Unforgivable pun intended.) KAREN MACRAE Our HR department insisted “former riverboat manager in Myanmar” wasn’t a realistic job requirement for Private Trip Designer. But then Karen (and her mile-long CV) came along... KATHLEEN SASO When she’s not guiding for B&R, Kathleen teaches physical education and dance to elementary school students, paddles Ottawa’s Gatineau River or plays her ukulele. We can only assume these lovable qualities are a front for her secret supervillain life. KIM HESSION Kim’s favourite hobbies: backcountry skiing, lobster fishing, river canoeing, treeplanting and crossword-solving. We’re exhausted just watching her.

LARA MATTIOLI As a born-and-raised coastal Italian, Lara feels most comfortable with a glass of wine in hand and a salt water breeze at her back. Weirdly, so do we... LEAH HOWE After 10 years with B&R, Leah is rife with delicious contradictions. She likes her duvets silky soft, her burrata homemade (her home, that is) and her Barolo right out of the barrel. LEWIS EVANS Lewis can order coffee in five European languages. And while he is often served a crusty cheese sandwich, he’s terrific at pretending it was what he wanted. LISA LILJEBERG She’s been called an unguided missile career-wise, and we love it. On trips, she’s played the maestro, interpreter, picnic artist, mechanic and even plumber. LORENZO SANTAMARIA Born in Sicily and now based in Copenhagen, Lorenzo’s a bit of a nomad. But he still has a Sicilian’s love of family...and, fortunately, includes fellow travellers in that category. LUCA PACCHIONI Luca’s parents loaded him into a camper van for a whirlwind Portugal trip at the age of eight. Now this Italian is a wanderer and aspiring Madrid architect. MARCELA CALDAS This Colombia native is an architect and designer, lives in Paris and Barcelona, rides horses in La Costa Brava, and could make a garbage bag look posh. MARCOS GRELLET Marcos has spent the past 18 years as both a marine biologist and continent-hopping travel writer. Or as we describe it: cuddling dolphins and winning Pulitzers. MARJOLEIN ROELEVELD Although Amsterdam-born Marjolein sports degrees in theatre and mime, she refuses to pretend she’s trapped in a box. But after a few pints of Columbus ale... MATT O’HARA Formerly B&R’s regional director of Central and Eastern Europe, Matt has guided in over a dozen countries. Now he’s a Boston-based entrepreneur, but he’s still just “that Matt guy” to us. MELANIE WEBB Melanie has been paddling in Bali, snowboarding in the Andes, and watching the Baja 250 off-road race in Mexico between bowls of ceviche. Her pocket calendar looks like a Jackson Pollock. MICHELE HARVEY Michele made B&R history: she served as the local guide on B&R’s first South Africa trip in 1996. We’ve made her a medal, but sadly she’s too self-

effacing (or stylish) to wear it. NATHAN LANE Nathan joined the B&R crew in 2001 and has since guided 100+ trips through 21 different countries. He’s been known to discard a broken bike for a nearby Thai elephant. OSCAR BIEDMA Oscar is the kind of athlete who pedals out of a Vancouver driveway one morning and ends up in Mexico. As cyclists, all of our guides are “avid”…Oscar is more like “ravenous.” PAOLO MARAGLIULO A native of Puglia, Paolo came to guiding the old fashioned way: a failed basketball career. Our gain, though: he’s now a worldly genius who works in British theatre. PHIL HAEMMERLE This winterloving athlete dove headfirst into Japan and hasn’t stopped roaming since. He’s either a born nomad or just wants to avoid paying rent. We love him either way. RAFA PRIETO MARTIN Born in Spain, Rafa’s first word was aventura. (Of course, he then repeated it in German, English, Italian, Portuguese, French and Japanese.) Now he lives the hard life on Brazilian beaches. REMI LAHAUSSOIS Tunnel vision? Not Remi’s style. He’s dabbled in sculpting, winemaking, homebuilding, music, and still somehow managed to squeeze in a few triathlons. RICCARDO PASQUIN Born in a Venetian village, Riccardo has since wandered through Ireland, Bolivia and Portugal. His party trick is getting teary-eyed over glasses of Giuseppe Mascarello about il bel paese (the beautiful country). ROB GRIEVE When we can drag him down from the mountain, Trip Designer Rob Grieve can be found planning and guiding trips in his native New Zealand. Yes, his accent is infuriatingly charming. RON JARUS Ron has diligently travelled five continents, so you can ask him for directions in English, Mandarin, Hebrew or Italian. (Or don’t: he’s equally delightful to get lost with.) SAKIS MITSOULIS With a master’s in fine art, Sakis is happily steeped in the finer things in life (probably how he ended up in the luxury boating industry). Hang out with Sakis and eat very, very well. SARAH LEWIS A master’s from the London School of Economics. Fluent in five languages. Has visited more countries than a diplomat. Yes, Morgan Freeman could narrate Sarah’s life. SCOTT MCEWEN Scott ditched a career in Canadian television to pursue cinema at the Sorbonne. And work with UNESCO. And conquer the Alps. And, of course, cycle like a maniac.

SEBASTIAN ROMERO He’s our resident filmmaker and photographer extraordinaire. A native of Germany, Sebastian is always one drink away from flopping down on the mountain to make snow angels. SJOERD VINK Born in southern Holland, Sjoerd grew up on a bike. (It’s practically dictated by law there.) Less mandatory: becoming a hot yoga master. Just for fun: a degree from the Royal Academy of Art. SONIA TER HOVANESSIAN Our favourite Franco-Armenian jazz singer / classical flautist / budding photographer from the UK now calls Bologna home. Yes, she can serenade you in Italian. Yes, you will swoon.

STEPHANE LECLERC Stéphane is a French-Canadian graphic designer who loves dropping into Venice for the week and can get red-faced (in a cute way) about hockey. STEPHANIE GULLEDGE Although she’s journeyed through Europe, South America and Asia on two wheels, Stephanie has been hinting (heavily) that she has a hankering for more tapas in Myanmar. STEPHANIE STANFIELD This native of Canada’s famously good-natured East Coast tried a small stint in the corporate world before running away screaming and joining B&R in beautiful Beaune. TABITA MIOTTO Tabita is a witty and charming native Italian with a passion for biking, wandering and perfecting her golf swing. Cuba and Catalonia are her favourite planetary hangouts. TAKUYA KODAMA The son of a Buddhist monk, Takuya’s sunny outlook makes him invaluable as our biking guru in Japan. Flat tire? He couldn’t be less stressed. (Also not half bad at fixing it.) TATIANA BRISOLLA A Brazilian, a biologist, a massage therapist, a proud new resident of France, and a yoga teacher cycle into a bar. (At this point, the joke falls apart: they’re all one person, and we call her Tati.) TELMO BARROS After growing up surfing and sailing on the Portuguese shores of the Atlantic Ocean, Telmo swapped the sea for the Catalan Pyrenees and bike paths of Copenhagen. The sea misses him. He’s just that nice a guy. THILO ERHARDT Thilo is B&R’s in-house chameleon. Throw him in the sea? He becomes an expert diver. Send him to the European Space Agency? He walks out with a job. This German Parisian is everything. TIM RICHARDSON He’s our go-to guy in Bhutan, Nepal and his native New Zealand. Why? Because he can cook anything on a barbecue, cut a tree like a lumberjack and repair bikes like they’re made of Lego. Simultaneously. TIM SCHELLENBERGER Tim recently earned his Masters in South American anthropology, politics, and international relations. A Brazil-based intellectual, he happily shuts off his brain every few days to dive, drum and DJ. TOM McCARTHY Wrapping up a PhD in physics at CERN, our resident science genius (and B&R veteran) now has more time to bike, row, and cross country ski. We’re still waiting on his time travel machine, though. TYLER DILLON Tyler traded a jetsetting life as an ESL teacher to be a B&R Trip Designer. But to his department’s chagrin, he disappears for weeks at a time...to guide trips to China, Peru and the Galapagos. WILLIAM DEBOST Born and raised in Paris, William switched continents to canoe through Canada. But unable to escape his Frenchness, he still likes a slice of clafoutis while listening to jazz and musing about the world economy.

YVONNE POWER Every time Yvonne tries to leave her southeast Ireland home, we send her back to craft new itineraries for B&R. Unfortunately, we’re forced to ask some hard things of her: like sampling fine Irish whiskies. ZOE LAGARDE A keen biker who loves her native France (and its abundance of food, wine, and long summer days), Zoe is always thrilled to share its secrets. Oh, and she’s also an international climate change policy expert.

Yes, Morgan Freeman could narrate Sarah’s life. SCOTT MCEWEN Scott ditched a career in Canadian television to pursue cinema at the Sorbonne. And work with UNESCO. And conquer the Alps. And, of course, cycle like a maniac.

SEBASTIAN ROMERO He’s our resident filmmaker and photographer extraordinaire. A native of Germany, Sebastian is always one drink away from flopping down on the mountain to make snow angels. SJOERD VINK Born in southern Holland, Sjoerd grew up on a bike. (It’s practically dictated by law there.) Less mandatory: becoming a hot yoga master. Just for fun: a degree from the Royal Academy of Art. SONIA TER HOVANESSIAN Our favourite Franco-Armenian jazz singer / classical flautist / budding photographer from the UK now calls Bologna home. Yes, she can serenade you in Italian. Yes, you will swoon.

STEPHANE LECLERC Stéphane is a French-Canadian graphic designer who loves dropping into Venice for the week and can get red-faced (in a cute way) about hockey. STEPHANIE GULLEDGE Although she’s journeyed through Europe, South America and Asia on two wheels, Stephanie has been hinting (heavily) that she has a hankering for more tapas in Myanmar. STEPHANIE STANFIELD This native of Canada’s famously good-natured East Coast tried a small stint in the corporate world before running away screaming and joining B&R in beautiful Beaune. TABITA MIOTTO Tabita is a witty and charming native Italian with a passion for biking, wandering and perfecting her golf swing. Cuba and Catalonia are her favourite planetary hangouts. TAKUYA KODAMA The son of a Buddhist monk, Takuya’s sunny outlook makes him invaluable as our biking guru in Japan. Flat tire? He couldn’t be less stressed. (Also not half bad at fixing it.) TATIANA BRISOLLA A Brazilian, a biologist, a massage therapist, a proud new resident of France, and a yoga teacher cycle into a bar. (At this point, the joke falls apart: they’re all one person, and we call her Tati.) TELMO BARROS After growing up surfing and sailing on the Portuguese shores of the Atlantic Ocean, Telmo swapped the sea for the Catalan Pyrenees and bike paths of Copenhagen. The sea misses him. He’s just that nice a guy. THILO ERHARDT Thilo is B&R’s in-house chameleon. Throw him in the sea? He becomes an expert diver. Send him to the European Space Agency? He walks out with a job. This German Parisian is everything. TIM RICHARDSON He’s our go-to guy in Bhutan, Nepal and his native New Zealand. Why? Because he can cook anything on a barbecue, cut a tree like a lumberjack and repair bikes like they’re made of Lego. Simultaneously. TIM SCHELLENBERGER Tim recently earned his Masters in South American anthropology, politics, and international relations. A Brazil-based intellectual, he happily shuts off his brain every few days to dive, drum and DJ. TOM McCARTHY Wrapping up a PhD in physics at CERN, our resident science genius (and B&R veteran) now has more time to bike, row, and cross country ski. We’re still waiting on his time travel machine, though. TYLER DILLON Tyler traded a jetsetting life as an ESL teacher to be a B&R Trip Designer. But to his department’s chagrin, he disappears for weeks at a time...to guide trips to China, Peru and the Galapagos. WILLIAM DEBOST Born and raised in Paris, William switched continents to canoe through Canada. But unable to escape his Frenchness, he still likes a slice of clafoutis while listening to jazz and musing about the world economy.

YVONNE POWER Every time Yvonne tries to leave her southeast Ireland home, we send her back to craft new itineraries for B&R. Unfortunately, we’re forced to ask some hard things of her: like sampling fine Irish whiskies. ZOE LAGARDE A keen biker who loves her native France (and its abundance of food, wine, and long summer days), Zoe is always thrilled to share its secrets. Oh, and she’s also an international climate change policy expert.

What’s Included Flights aren’t included in the price of your trip (B&R travellers come from all over!), but once your trip starts, we pay for everything it makes sense to pay for. Great wine? Of course.

Stables for the Moroccan dromedary you’ve gotten attached to? Umm, no.

Hotels Winning hotels are a hallmark of B&R. Whether Bistro or Signature, they’re the charming and intimate garnish atop your trip. That’s the B&R style.

B&R Guides All services of B&R guide(s), who are adept at wearing many hats. They will do whatever it takes to make your trip hassle free, and are on call 24/7.

Great Meals We include all meals when it makes sense, yet we understand that making a great dining discovery is rewarding, too. So sometimes we leave room for exploring on your own.

DIetary Restrictions? B&R’s personalized service doesn’t end at the dining room door. Decades of building close relationships with our hoteliers, restaurateurs and chefs make it easy for us to accommodate your every dietary need.

Even in France.

Easy Starts Our trips start where it makes the most sense: we choose convenient locations that enable a smooth transition into your trip.

Table For Two? Each trip offers the opportunity to dine or lunch independently from the group… and we’ll happily make arrangements for you.

This is done by local handlers so guides are devoted to you.

to distribute refreshments, carry your purchases, and offer a lift when needed.

All Tips We look after all the support along the way, including tips. We grease the wheels wherever it’s necessary—so all you have to worry about is having fun.

Local Support, 24/7 Heaven forbid anything should ever go amiss on your trip, but if it ever did, we have people on the ground—everywhere—who can pull whatever strings need pulling.

Fine Wine Vintage wine (delicious and well-chosen) is included with meals. Of course!

Perfect Moments To really get to know the region, we experience it in deep and up close. That’s why every trip includes: tastings (local wines, olive oil, artisanal cheeses...); private tours of historic sites, galleries and museums with local experts; and visits with our local friends.

Everything You Need to Know Before each trip, travellers receive a link to a Trip Planner filled with local info.

You’ll also be mailed a top-secret Dossier for the road, with insider tips on everything from where to shop to the best local watering holes.

Transportation Included are all on-trip transfers by yacht, train, 4X4, plane, helicopter (and camels).

Amazing Routes All biking and walking outings include meticulous, easy-to-follow route notes. By no means do you have to follow them, but if you do, we promise nothing short of spectacular—we like quiet country lanes, glorious vistas, and no one but us. Our guides always have additional scenic routes up their sleeves, too. Up for more of a challenge? All you have to do is ask.

All Baggage Handling Your baggage is transported from one hotel to the next.

Family Trips These trips are not simply adult trips with kids tacked on. Anything but! They are three crafted trips in one: a trip for the parents; a trip for the kids; and a trip for the family. Time together, time apart… we find the balance. And we bring along kid equipment galore. From bikes, helmets, tandems and trailers to extra guides, vans and even cribs, we’ve got you covered.

Intangible B&R Tangibles The years of exhaustive research we’ve done on the ground; the countless personal relationships we’ve cultivated with everyone from hoteliers to chefs and local experts; and the dozens of people who work hard behind the scenes.

Pre-Trip Our guides complete a dry run of each trip before it departs. (We like to think of it as a dress rehearsal.)

This way the only surprises on your trip are good ones.

Creative Genius Every B&R trip is liberally sprinkled with innovation. We’re the first to try a new destination, a new idea, a new route…even a beaker of Brunello (or two).

Whatever it takes...

Walking Sticks Lightweight Leki telescoping

walking sticks, and water bottles in padded hip or pack-strap holsters that are yours to keep after your trip.

Bike Helmets Don’t bother packing your noggin protector—we provide fantastic Bell or Giro helmets.

Custom Bikes B&R has a customized fleet of fully-equipped Bianchi hybrids and road bikes for all our European trips. For trips outside of Europe, we offer the very best bicycles for the region. We have men’s and women’s models in five frame sizes.

For the kids, Burley tandems, trailers and youth helmets. Plus, high-tech odometers on every bike for data geeks. For photos and full specs, visit Butterfield.com.

E-Bikes Want a little boost every now and then? Need help keeping up with your wife?

Our e-bikes are regular pedal bikes that provide electric assistance whenever you want it. We plug it in at night, you get extra juice when you need it. Call for pricing details.

What’s New

Activity Levels CHOOSE YOUR AMBIANCE

Signature or Bistro Hotels Once the sun goes down, we’ve noticed two different kinds of travellers emerge.

So many of our trips now come in two flavours: same glorious B&R itineraries, but different hand-selected hotels.

Signature Want nights as resplendent as your days? Every Signature hotel is a stunning expression of the region. Think former castles, private windswept terraces, and an ocean view to swoon in front of.

Bistro Is your holy grail a blissful night’s sleep? Our Bistro hotels are just as serene but a little more casual—perfect for travellers who see hotels as a trip’s delicious antipasto but prefer the decadent open road as their main course.

“Yeah, B&R goes slowly to see the world. But, um, how slowly?” Good question.

This year, we’ve revamped our activity levels. Forget the terrain profiles and distance stats (although you can get those details too, at butterfield.com/about/activity-levels).

Instead, we’ve categorized our trips by the type of traveller they suit best. Just take these new archetypes with a grain of salt: our super-flexible guides always have brilliant route extensions and the handsome B&R van ready if you suddenly crave an adrenaline-churning workout—or an afternoon siesta. The choice is always yours.

CHOOSE YOUR SPEED

What Kind of Traveller Are You? OCCASIONAL You’re in decent shape, but prefer sipping (Chianti? Barolo?) to schlepping. You walk a few times a week or bike once in a blue moon. Flat, gorgeous terrain? Yes please.

RECREATIONAL You savour a good walk or cycle a few times a month. Panting isn’t really your style, but one or two hills can help you work off those divine buttered oysters from lunch.

CHOOSE YOUR RIDE

Custom Bikes for Comfort

ENTHUSIAST You go for a long walk or ride about once a week. Sometimes you sweat just for the sake of sweating, but an even better reward for a few steep climbs per day? The “whoa” view.

We asked our friends at Bianchi to custom design the perfect B&R bikes for Europe. They sent back a fleet of sturdy, smooth aero-dynamic wonders: hybrids with flat handlebars, a heavier frame and wider tires; and oh-so-sleek drop bar racing bikes. Wheeeee!

AVID You love a good, substantial hike or cycling a few times a week.

Rolling hills, deep valleys and some steep, challenging climbs just make the homemade Tuscan tiramisu sweeter.

Elite Bikes for Speed These award-winning Bianchi Infinito CVs feature cutting-edge carbon technology. Available for our European sojourns, they’re agile, responsive, lightning-fast and mind-bogglingly smooth.

Just the kind of high-end engineering you need to crest the next hill without spilling your Chianti... Call for pricing details.
