A family office can say, at any moment, where each of a family’s assets stands. Ask the same question about their travels: the answer slips away.
BG ULTIMATE’s Travel Family Office answers that question. It is a European approach to ultra-luxury travel: confidential, patrimonial, relational.
We come to know families — their tastes, their habits, their priorities. Journey after journey, that knowledge becomes memory.
Our Travel Family Office is the outcome of two heritages.
For more than twenty years, BG FINANCES has accompanied families through relationships built on trust, confidentiality and time. That culture taught us a simple truth: a relationship cannot be declared — it must be built.
BG ULTIMATE brings that same standard to travel. Our standing as an Independent agent of 360 Private Travel opens an international ecosystem of selected, specialised partners that no single house could assemble on its own.
We do not use this term for its prestige. We use it because it describes exactly what we do.
A family office does not process a transaction: it holds a continuity. It knows, it keeps, it anticipates, it arbitrates. It knows how to say no, and it remains discreet.
We are not trying to learn your next destination. We are trying to know your family: its tastes, its rhythms, its generations, its constraints. That knowledge becomes a memory — and it is what separates a fine journey from a succession of journeys that are well judged, well executed, and memorable.
We come to know your family, we keep that knowledge, and we anticipate rather than execute. Each experience enriches the next.
EXPERIENCES — Exceptional journeys, chosen and then shaped for one particular family.
RELATIONSHIP — A deep and lasting knowledge of that family, held over time.
ORCHESTRATION — The ability to bring together the finest partners and make the friction disappear.
Depending on the project, we work across:
Luxury and expedition cruises — our speciality;
Private aviation — through 360 Private Travel’s dedicated desk — together with yachts, palaces, hotels, resorts and exceptional villas, private residences, and culture and art along the way.
A journey may then read like this: “Paris, private aviation, Rome, a few days aboard an exceptional ship, a private island in Greece, back to Paris — or on to Singapore or Montevideo.” The cruise becomes one sequence within a journey designed end to end.
The families we work with already have access to the finest hotels, the finest ships, the finest crews. Access is not what they lack.
What is missing is judgement: knowing what to choose, at what moment, for what reason, and how to make it all hold together. Then keeping the record — the habits, the preferences, the constraints, what pleased and what did not — so that the next time begins where the last one ended.
An exceptional experience does not come from the number of arrangements. It comes from the rightness of the choices.
This is no longer a booking. It is an orchestrated experience.
To families, we offer a partner who knows them and whose work is set in time.
These families are surrounded by trusted advisers: family offices, private bankers and wealth managers, lawyers, executives, estate advisers.
BG ULTIMATE becomes their “travel” partner when they wish to offer this expertise to their clients without building it in house — with full respect for the relationship that binds them.
Two relationships. One standard of trust.
Our Travel Family Office is for families looking for something other than a travel agency, however ultra-luxury and however accomplished.
It is also for the professionals who want to offer this expertise to their clients without creating one more function.
Note — going further
What a travel family office does that an agency does not: know, anticipate, arbitrate, document, keep the secret, and know how to say no.
