Keep reading to learn how we can make your next trip an elevated travel experience!

Work with the pros

If you’re visiting somewhere for the first time, it can be a challenge to know what outings or activities to include and what to skip — that’s where Superior Executive Services comes in. We’ve been planning corporate and personal trips for decades, so we’re well-versed in the must-do items in all of our destinations. In addition to thoughtful recommendations, our industry knowledge and connections can help to secure hard-to-get tickets, reservations at popular restaurants, and more. Our travel experts are also on-call for any issues that might arise before, during, or after your trip.

Itinerary tailored to you

With a little information about the travelers in your group, we can also suggest off-the-beaten-path excursions like a round of golf at a championship-level course, a spa day, rock climbing and hiking for the more adventurous, or, for the wine enthusiasts, a winery tour and tasting. You get the idea – we can customize different activities to best suit your group’s interests, no matter what they are!

Home rental

In many instances, when traveling with a group, a luxury home rental is the preferable accommodation option. Thanks to our years of experience, we often have access to high-end home rentals not available to the public. With a home rental, you’ll have the luxury of a five-star hotel with the amenities of your own home, including a kitchen, laundry, privacy and considerably more space than a hotel room. We can also arrange for homes with amenities like a pool or hot tub, game room and even a golf simulator or indoor sports court!

Private Experiences

Whether it’s a private plane, chauffeured car, or dining experience prepared by a chef in the comfort of your luxury home rental, private experiences away from crowds and distractions offer opportunities for more meaningful connections with your fellow travelers. The Superior team can plan and coordinate these private experiences throughout your trip to create a truly elevated travel experience.

Our team has years of combined experience creating larger-than-life travel experiences for corporate and personal groups of all types — let us do the same for your group! To kickstart the planning process, you can check out our full lineup of event travel packages, give us a call at 608.665.9070, or send us a message online.

Find out what you can expect from our glitziest travel packages in this blog post.

Each spring, the most noteworthy actors and actresses, esteemed directors, screenwriters and others in the film industry flock to the south of France for a showcase of the upcoming year’s best films at the Cannes Film Festival.

If you’re a cinephile, you can join the A-list for a spectacular week of stars, sun and soirees with a luxury travel package from Superior Executive Services! Here are four fun facts about Superior’s 2024 Cannes travel packages:

1. VIP Transportation
2. Celebrity Sightings
3. Shopping & Dining
4. When in Cannes…

VIP Transportation

No need to worry about driving a manual transmission in an unfamiliar country; we will arrange private transportation for the entirety of your trip — to and from the airport, to sightseeing, and to the port to catch your dinner cruise on the Mediterranean. You will have your driver on-call whenever you need!

Celebrity Sightings

While you may not be walking the red carpet yourself, you’re practically guaranteed to spot at least one megawatt star on your trip. Park yourself at one of the seaside bistros at the Port Pierre Canto and watch for burly security guards, and you’ll know a celebrity is not far behind!

Shopping & Dining

While Cannes has always been a place of rest and relaxation for Europeans, the Cannes Film Festival helped put it on the map as an international destination. As such, luxury shopping and five-star gourmet dining has flourished in this relatively small city. We can arrange reservations at in-demand restaurants and even private shopping experiences at the most exclusive shops and boutiques.

When in Cannes…

If you fly through Paris’ Charles De Gaulle Airport, Cannes is just a 90-minute flight away and the perfect way to cap off a European vacation. At Superior, we’ve been planning overseas trips to Europe’s most sought-after destinations for decades. We can create a custom itinerary to make sure everyone in your group is delighted and entertained.

In France, Paris is, of course, a highlight even for the most seasoned traveler. A day trip (or more) to the historic Normandy Beaches is a solemn and humbling experience. A stop in Rome and Florence is a must for any architecture buff. For a budding gourmand, it’s a tough call between Spain or the Greek Islands — how about both? Europe in the summer is truly magical!

If you’re ready to experience this one-of-a-kind event like a true VIP, contact our team today to book one of our 2024 Cannes travel packages! You can reach us at 608.665.9070 or send us a message online to get started.

Celebrate Country Music Month by booking one of our incredible festival travel packages!

Country music is about as American as baseball and apple pie, and enjoying live country music is just the icing on the cake — or should we say the scoop on ice cream on that pie? October is Country Music Month, which means there’s no better time to start planning your next live country music getaway!

From destinations like Nashville to California to Myrtle Beach and beyond, we’re already excited to plan trips for these four amazing country music festivals in 2024:

1. Pepsi Gulf Coast Jam
2. CMA Fest
3. Stagecoach Festival
4. Carolina Country Music Fest

Read on to learn more about these country music festivals and how you can celebrate Country Music Month by booking a package to one with Superior Executive Services!

Pepsi Gulf Coast Jam

Kick off the summer season in style with the Pepsi Gulf Coast Jam! Panama City, Florida — affectionately called “The Redneck Riviera” for its laid-back, casual beach vibes — hosts this three-day country music bash. Last year’s event welcomed Morgan Wallen and Miranda Lambert as headliners, so you can expect similar star power in 2024.

CMA Fest

Attend the biggest weekend in country music and see country music’s biggest stars up close and personal! Each year in June, Music City (aka Nashville) welcomes CMA Fest attendees to kick up their boots and enjoy performances from musicians like Dierks Bentley, Luke Bryan, Jason Aldean and more! This is country music’s biggest party weekend, and with the VIP perks you get from Superior, we guarantee you won’t want to miss it!

Stagecoach Festival

The Palm Desert in beautiful Indio, California, might not seem like the most natural place for a country music festival, but the stunning landscape and pleasant springtime temperatures have made Stagecoach a popular destination for country lovers since the festival started in 2007. Just a 30-minute drive from Palm Springs and an hour from Joshua Tree, there are several excursions the Superior team can help your group plan for before or after Stagecoach!

Carolina Country Music Fest

With sunny Myrtle Beach as your backdrop, you can enjoy hits from new country music stars like Lainey Wilson and Scotty McCreery and established favorites like Kenny Chesney and Brooke & Dunn. To borrow a lyric from the Zac Brown Band, with your toes in the water and a cold beer in your hand, life will certainly be good at the Carolina Country Music Fest!

Summertime offers a wide array of live music festivals to fit any musical taste, and with Superior, you can experience all of them — country music or otherwise — in VIP style. Celebrate Country Music Month by contacting us today at (608) 665-9070, or send us a message online to make a luxury live music getaway part of your summer 2024 itinerary!

Make sure your next corporate travel event goes off without a hitch.

Make the most of your time in Sin City with these exciting destinations!

By late fall, the blistering summer temperatures have subsided, and Sin City is as pleasant as ever. That makes it the perfect backdrop for the inaugural Las Vegas Grand Prix this November!

If you’re headed to Sin City to catch the Formula 1 action and want to plan some unique excursions for your downtown, the team at Superior Executive Services has you covered.

This list will get you out of the casinos and into some of Las Vegas’ most exciting and off-the-beaten-path attractions, including:

1. Hoover Dam tour
2. Mob Museum
3. Seven Magic Mountains
4. Michelin Star resaurants

Keeping reading to learn more about these Las Vegas destinations we suggest adding on to your Las Vegas Grand Prix travel experience!

Hoover Dam tour

Constructed over five years in the 1930s, the Hoover Dam is vital to controlling flood waters of the Colorado River, providing irrigation water and producing hydroelectric power. Just a 45-minute drive from the Las Vegas strip, the Hoover Dam is an astounding testament to the American spirit of ingenuity and perseverance. We can arrange private transportation to and from the Hoover Dam as part of your Las Vegas Grand Prix experience, as well as a guided tour of this astonishing feat of engineering excellence.

Mob Museum

Most people already know that Las Vegas was built, in large part, with the help of the mob. In the 1940s, the first casinos in Las Vegas were built to launder money for illicit activities like racketeering and drug trafficking. Take a deeper dive into Sin City’s seedy beginnings at the National Museum of Organized Crime and Law Enforcement (aka the Mob Museum).

Seven Magic Mountains

You might be surprised to know that one of the most famous works of contemporary art sits about 20 minutes south of downtown Las Vegas. In 2016, Swiss-born visual artist Ugo Rondinone completed Seven Magic Mountains, which consists of roughly 30 boulders stacked separately on top of one another and painted in different vibrant shades. The fluorescent boulders stand in stark contrast to the desert landscape they occupy.

Michelin Star Dining

Don’t spend all your money at the roulette tables; save some for the out-of-this-world restaurants in Vegas. Michelin-star restaurants like Le Cirque, Aureole, and Wing Lei — the first Chinese restaurant to earn a Michelin star in the United States — offer an elegant and unique dining experience that matches the exquisite food itself.

Las Vegas is also home to one of just a handful of restaurants in the country to receive three of the highly coveted Michelin stars. The late Joel Robuchon was dubbed the “Chef of the Century,” and his eponymous restaurant delights every sense from start to finish.

There’s so much to see and do in Las Vegas, no matter what your interests are. If you’d like to experience the city for yourself with one of our 2023 Las Vegas Grand Prix packages, there’s still time! Contact us today at 608.665.9070 or send us a message online to book your spot today.

Experience some of the world’s most popular events with your loved ones!

It’s easy to get caught up in the grind of daily life, but one surefire way to get time to slow down, even just for a short while, is to get away with one of our family vacation packages. Planning a trip around a concert, sporting event, or other unique experience is a terrific way to create an opportunity for bonding across generations.

2. Indy 500
3. CMA Fest
4. Wisconsin Golf Swing Package
5. Formula 1 Race

Read on to learn more about each of these packages and what your family can expect when you travel in Superior style!

Super Bowl LVIII

Getting to feel the action of the Super Bowl firsthand is a “you have to see it to believe it” kind of moment. Whether you’re 9 or 99, the excitement of the biggest night in sports is hard to describe. And if you’re a music fan, the halftime show is a landmark event all of its own!

Sunny Last Vegas will host Super Bowl LVIII. While there’s no shortage of fun for adults, Sin City has great family-friendly entertainment options as well, including Cirque du Soleil, the Marvel Avengers show at Treasure Island, Madame Tussaud’s Wax Museum, touring the Hoover Dam, and more!

Indy 500

For over one hundred years, racing’s biggest fans have flocked to the Indianapolis Motor Speedway each spring for the Indy 500, also known as The Greatest Spectacle in Racing. Before race day, you can take the family to the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Hall of Fame. If you’re traveling with kids, the Indianapolis Zoo and the Children’s Museum of Indianapolis are great attractions as well!

CMA Fest

Country music and Nashville go together like fried chicken and waffles, and your family can enjoy it all at the 2024 CMA Fest. The 2023 line-up featured the biggest stars in country music, including Luke Combs, Keith Urban, Eric Church, and more, so you can expect the 2024 event to deliver a similar level of star power. Bring your cowboy boots and your appetite for a memorable weekend in Music City!

Wisconsin Golf Swing Package

If you have budding golf stars in your family (or just appreciate some friendly competition between loved ones), how about our family vacation packages that take you to some of the best courses in the Midwest? Our Wisconsin Golf Swing Experience packages include your choice of luxury hospitality, fine dining, rounds of golf at Wisconsin’s top courses, and transportation. After you’ve hit the links, you can unwind at the nearby renowned Kohler Waters Spa or enjoy a meal with family at one of the city’s many fine-dining options!

Formula 1 Race

Formula 1 racing has experienced a boom in popularity over the last few years thanks in part to Netflix’s acclaimed Formula 1: Drive to Survive documentary series. Bring your family and see what the buzz is about for yourself at the U.S. Austin Grand Prix in October or the Las Vegas Grand Prix in November!

These are just a few of the fantastic events we can include in our family vacation packages, and as always, our team can customize a trip tailored to your family’s interests.

Play on some of the best courses in the world in Superior style.

With more than 15,000 golf courses in the United States, there’s ample supply for golfers of all playing levels, but the courses are certainly not all created equal.

At Superior Executive Services, we’re proud to plan custom golf experiences to some of the best and most highly sought-after courses in the country. Instead of just watching the action, these golf trips allow you to play on the same courses where golf’s greatest competitions take place. With our industry connections, you’ll play like a pro yourself with VIP treatment, private transportation, and luxury accommodations.

Interested? Here are nine of our favorite destinations you should consider for your next custom golf experience with Superior:

1. Pebble Beach
2. Torrey Pines
3. The Coeur d’Alene Golf & Spa Resort
4. Destination Kohler
5. Paine’s Valley
6. TPC Sawgrass
7. Kiawah Island Golf Resort
8. Pinehurst
9. Bethpage State Park Golf Course

Read on to learn more about these courses and how Superior can help you plan a custom golf experience where you can play on the same ground as the pros!

Pebble Beach

Pebble Beach, just two hours south of San Francisco, is widely regarded as the best public golf course in the country, and with good reason. Its rocky coastal views make it both a stunning and very difficult course to play. Nearly 70,000 rounds of golf are played at Pebble Beach each year, and it was host to many of the PGA Tour’s best golfers at its sixth U.S. Open in 2019.

Torrey Pines

Several hours south on California’s coast is Torrey Pines, another top-notch municipal course with picturesque views. Torrey Pines was originally a military training facility, Camp Callen, which opened in 1941 and was used for anti-aircraft artillery replenishment. The south course is infamously difficult to play, even for the professionals. The course underwent a massive renovation in the early 2000s, which added several hundred yards in length and altered some of the terrain to make it even more challenging.

The Coeur d’Alene Golf & Spa Resort

Tucked away in beautiful northern Idaho along the shore of Lake Coeur d’Alene is the Coeur d’Alene Golf & Spa Resort. In addition to a tranquil, luxurious spa and fine dining, the resort’s golf course features the famous “floating green” on the 14th hole. Golf packages at the resort include a shuttle to and from the course, a forecaddie for each group, a pre-round sports massage and more.

Destination Kohler

If you’re based in the Midwest, you don’t need to travel far for “above par” golf courses. The Kohler, WI area is home to Erin Hill and Whistling Straits, host of the 2021 Ryder Cup. Your custom golf experience isn’t complete without a stop at Kohler’s famous Kohler Waters Spa or fine dining at The Immigrant, Blackwolf Run, or The Wisconsin Room.

Payne’s Valley

Feel like sticking in the Midwest? Play the country’s first public-access golf course designed by Tiger Woods and his TGR Design firm at Payne’s Valley in Hollister, MO. Enjoy the breathtaking Ozark Mountain landscape while challenging yourself on the bonus “Big Rock at Payne’s Valley” 19th hole. The course’s home, Big Cedar Lodge, also features four other golf courses, fine dining, a spa, and space for business meetings if you feel like combining work with your play.

TPC Sawgrass

Florida boasts the most golf courses of any state in the country, and at the top of that list is none other than TPC Sawgrass in Ponte Vedra Beach. TPC Sawgrass is consistently ranked among the top golf courses in the country and was purchased by then-PGA Commissioner Deane Beman in 1979 for just $1. In fact, the check still hangs in the clubhouse. Try your hand at one of the most challenging holes in golf on the notorious island green at the 17th hole!

Kiawah Island Golf Resort

Golf might be the main attraction for your trip, but Kiawah Island has lots to offer. From big game fishing to biking to swimming and more, there are countless ways to relax in the beautiful Palmetto State. With a whopping five courses to choose from, designed by golf greats like Pete Dye and Jack Nicklaus, you’re likely to need some new golf shoes by the end of the trip.

Pinehurst

Situated halfway between Charlotte and Raleigh in rural North Carolina is one of the best destinations for golf in the country. And while it’s always been known for golf, the area has truly exploded in popularity in the last 10 years. During your custom golf experience at Pinehurst, you can enjoy the options for dining and lodging that have been recently added to accommodate the influx of visitors and golf enthusiasts.

Bethpage State Park Golf Course

Heading up the Eastern Seaboard is Bethpage State Park Golf Course in Farmingdale, NY. Perhaps not as well known as some of the West Coast courses, Bethpage receives high praise for being both one of the best and one of the toughest public courses and, in 2025, will host the Ryder Cup.

This list just scratches the surface of the kinds of custom golf experiences we can plan for your group. No matter which destination you choose, our Superior team can arrange the best accommodations and exciting excursions as well. Contact us today at .608.665-9070 or send us a message online to get started!

Get a head start on next year’s luxury travel planning!

It’s not too early to start thinking about trip planning for 2024, especially if you’re hoping to attend one of the more popular events we offer. One of the best pieces of advice the Superior Executive Services team shares with our clients is to book as early as possible, to guarantee access to the best accommodations, dining reservations, event tickets, and excursions available in our event travel packages.

With that in mind, here’s a look at our most exclusive event travel packages for 2024 so you can start planning!

1. Masters Tournament
2. Cannes Film Festival
3. Super Bowl LVIII
4. Aspen Food & Wine Classic
5. Create your own custom trip

Read on to learn more about these one-of-a-kind event travel packages.

Masters Tournament

Year after year, the Masters Tournament is the most sought-after ticket in golf (and perhaps sports in general!). While demand is consistently high, a limited number of tickets are available to the public via a lottery system. And, much like the actual lottery, your chances of being picked are pretty slim.

If you’re dying to see that iconic Masters green blazer up close, not to worry — Superior has ticket packages available that include more than just entry to the event. In addition to transportation and accommodation logistics, we’re able to provide VIP hospitality, rounds of golf, and add-on excursions to fit every taste.

Cannes Film Festival

For a cinephile, there’s no more exciting trip than to the Cannes International Film Festival. The glitz, glamor, and celebrity sightings are just the beginning — you’ll also be able to see some of the most highly anticipated and critically acclaimed films months before they’re released in theaters. Many of the film screenings offer an opportunity to hear firsthand from the directors and actors, where they share their thoughts on the film and even take audience questions. The south of France is always a beautiful destination, but it truly dazzles during the annual film festival!

Super Bowl LVIII

Sunny Las Vegas will host Super Bowl LVIII in 2024. With no shortage of luxury hotels, fine dining, and, of course, gambling, Sin City is an amazing locale for this special event. Tickets will sell out quickly, so we recommend planning as far in advance of the big game as possible. We also offer many add-on options to make your Super Bowl event travel packages a winner!

Aspen Food & Wine Classic

Good friends and good food go together like cheese and wine, and there surely will be plenty of both at the Aspen Food & Wine Classic! Three days of panel discussions, tastings, and cooking demonstrations with world-famous food and wine experts with beautiful Aspen as your backdrop is almost too perfect to imagine. This event brings together world-class chefs, culinary leaders, and wine and spirits experts for an unforgettable weekend of delectable indulgences.

Create your own custom trip

Nothing is more exclusive than creating your own custom, completely personalized event travel packages! We can create your very own itinerary for your dsream location or sporting event with family, friends, colleagues, or clients. If you’re looking to start planning your dream, one-of-a-kind vacation, let us handle all the logistics while you list off your must-sees.

These event travel packages will go fast, so let’s get planning! Contact us today at 608.665.9070 or send us a message to get started today!
