Travel, thoughtfully curated.

Designing bespoke journeys for those who value detail, pace and perspective

Woodward & Lane is a private travel consultancy creating tailor-made journeys for clients who value discretion, depth and an unhurried pace.


Based in Maidenhead, Berkshire, we design exceptional journeys worldwide- from milestone family travel and private honeymoons to beautifully curated long-haul experiences.


Every itinerary is created from scratch.


Nothing is off the shelf.

Our Approach


To us, luxury is effortless - shaped by insight, discretion and exceptional detail.


We begin by understanding how you like travel - your interests, your pace and the moments that matter most.

From there, we design journeys that feel effortless, personal and one of a kind.


You will work directly with our founder, ensuring a discreet and personal service from the first conversation to your return home.

Signature Journeys

No two itineraries are the same. Each journey is shaped around you, delivered with trusted global partners and thoughtful detail throughout.
