A boutique studio of 11 travel curators. We design 80 journeys a year — Italy, Japan, Patagonia, the Maldives. Never more. Always by hand.
Four agriturismi, two truffle hunts, one dinner in a 12th-century monastery. Driven in a 1968 Alfa Romeo Giulia. Curated by Letizia.
Three ryokans (none with Wi-Fi), one tea-ceremony master, one Tadao Ando, one onsen with Mt Fuji visible from the bath. Curated by Mariko.
Two luxury lodges, one estancia, five days hiking with a private mountain guide. Stars from your bed. Curated by Tomás.
One over-water villa, three private dive sites, one night on a sandbank under glowing plankton. Curated by Aishath.
Two riads in Marrakech, one luxury desert camp under the dunes, one Berber dinner in a tent. Curated by Karim.
Two private chalets with butler service, one heli-skiing day, three Michelin tables on the mountain. Curated by Hans.
Aerial was started by Léa Marini and three friends after a decade in luxury hotel sales — the kind where Aman, Belmond and Six Senses appeared on the same spreadsheet. We left to build the opposite: hand-written, slow, in-person.
Today we are eleven curators in Paris, Milano and Tokyo. We book 80 journeys a year — never more. Every brief is read by Léa personally. Every itinerary is signed in pen.

We don't get kickbacks. We recommend properties because they're right — not because they pay us 20%.
Every reply is written by a human. Léa reads every brief. We answer in 8 hours, in writing.
18 only. We can't curate Burma or Bali to our standard — so we don't pretend.
Tell us roughly: where, when, with whom, why. Léa reads every email personally — she'll reply within 8 hours, in writing, with a shortlist of three journey directions.
