OUR STORY

It’s not easy to pull yourself away from your cell phone and watch what is going on around you. To look at the world in a different way. To understand a different culture . To forget about the “instagramable moment”. Our job is to open eyes and minds. To provide amazing travel experiences. Most of them, in pure luxury, in private surroundings, with an expert. At other times it’s just sheer energy, surrounded by hundreds of locals. Longitude 80 is the reflection of how Denis Pagé sees the world of travel after 25 years of guiding across New Zealand, Asia and the South Pacific. To be a guide is to be a coordinator; a translator of images and sounds; an interpreter of what you are about to see. Guiding is designing and delivering the ultimate private vacation. And hopefully to put the phone away just for a few minutes and soak it in. The selfie can wait….

This unique perspective allows Denis to craft exclusive boutique travel experiences, working with his local providers to bring you the very best, combined with luxury transfers, accommodation and dining, with an absolute focus on your comfort and safety.

Denis will meticulously plan and reconnoiter your dream journey, consulting with you at every step. He will target your specific points-of-interest – art, architecture, exotic foods, fascinating people, rare wildlife – whatever your dream. Because he has witnessed first hand where to find it, what works and what doesn’t.

 “Our travelers are so much more educated now, they are looking for very focused thematic trips. My goal is to deliver what I think are the most amazing travel experiences New Zealand, the Pacific and Asia regions have to offer. Places where I can push the envelope a bit more, yet where I don’t have to compromise on luxury and exclusivity”

Adventures for his clients have included his most exclusive Asia – the Horse Tea Trail along the Tibet border, his amazing Grand New Zealand experience, Bhutan’s private treks, a safari focused on India’s Big Cats, exploring the Spice Islands of Indonesia on your own private ship or looking for orangutans in Borneo's jungle returning every afternoon to your butler and private plunge pool... Add to this upcoming adventures such as Central Asia’s Silk Road, four wheel drive adventures in Mongolia, Australia by private plane, New Zealand’s trekking adventures or his Trans-Himalayan Journey across Nepal and Ladakh.
