Spear’s Review

‘Our team is there to make sure that everybody is happy, so that everybody can have a vacation,’ Cari Gray, founder of Gray & Co, tells Spear’s. ‘There’s often somebody within the family who is the planner that keeps everybody on track – and what clients love about our trips is that we take that hat off them.’ 

Now based in California, Gray studied law but followed her passion for travel, working at ‘active travel’ company Butterfield & Robinson for 14 years. She set up her own firm in 2009, recognising there was an opportunity in the market for a business that provides private trips for ‘curious, active and discerning’ travellers, who are keen to bike, walk or generally stay active on their holidays, but who also want a bit of indulgence.

Gray & Co can connect travellers to destinations across six continents, and organises all elements of a trip – private jet and yacht charters, accommodation and meals.
