For this exclusive preview voyage, Scheinberg invited global hospitality leaders and a few very special friends to create a once-in-a-lifetime experience at every turn.
World-renowned pâtissier Cédric Grolet hosted a pop-up café serving delicious treats each day that were created bespoke for the sailing, while acclaimed artist and photographer JR designed and built a maritime-inspired set where he captured each guest in a striking, poetic portrait. Lazy afternoons unfolded into evenings marked by unforgettable moments, like aperitivo with Martha Stewart, full gala style dinners, and intimate performances from Ellie Goulding and Kygo.
On the second night of the trip, Sting delivered a surprise performance followed by a drone show designed by JR that lit up the Sicilian coastline. The night continued with a final performance by Janelle Monáe.
Throughout the voyage, each deck of the yacht was elevated by immersive floral installations from beloved designer Daniel Ost.
Pictured are some of those celebrities onboard the sailing, which was held immediately following the Preview Voyage of Luminara, attended by VIP travel advisors, partners and media, including LATTE.
