Cookson Adventures Introduce: Power Trips
A bold new collection of short, concentrated journeys designed for those who refuse to waste a moment
February 2026 – In response to an increase in demand from UHNW clientele for shorter trips that maximise their brief time away, ultra-luxury adventure travel company, Cookson Adventures, has launched Power Trips.
This new collection of short-format adventures is designed for long weekends and compact escapes that distil what would traditionally take one or two weeks into a burst of adventure, culture, and access – perfectly orchestrated through everything from private aviation to a world-class network of experts.
These action-filled trips aren’t just about adrenaline. The goal is first and foremost to fully maximise time, so each journey is carefully paced and expertly supported by Cookson’s hosting team, allowing guests to experience more without compromise. From revealing a lesser-seen side of Tuscany to flying through remote Utah canyons by eVTOL, the collection caters to guests who are time-poor but highly intentional about how they explore the world.
Nick Davies, Managing Director of Cookson Adventures, comments: “While there continues to be strong demand for slower travel, many of our clients are extremely active and very intentional in how they spend their time. They’re looking for a seamless rhythm to the day – one that removes friction, complicated logistics, and waiting around, and replaces it with meaningful, high-impact experiences. Power Trips reflects that shift: a global collection designed to inspire, which can be tailored to clients wherever they are based in the world”.
Elevated Exploration: Luxury Desert Thrills by Air
LUXURY DESERT THRILLS BY AIR
Step into the new frontier of adventure with access beyond the reach of planes and ATVs, through piloting an eVTOL sky car through landscapes that feel truly otherworldly. In iconic desert regions such as Utah, an eVTOL becomes the ultimate connector, linking high-adrenaline experiences: rappelling through slot canyons, dirt-road mountain biking and power boating through the twisting channels of Lake Powell. A bespoke luxury camp will serve as a remote base in the heart of the wilderness. This is next-generation exploration – where cutting-edge technology meets untamed terrain.
The Caucasus Protocol
AN ELITE WINTER MISSION IN GEORGIA
Your mission begins now—in the untamed landscapes of Georgia. It is a country of soaring mountain ranges and glacial valleys, where adventure unfolds with cinematic precision and rare access. This is James Bond–level exploration: rafting through white-water rapids, zip lining across vast canyons, and riding fat bikes over a colossal glacier. Each moment is expertly choreographed, culminating in the ultimate winter coup—arriving by helicopter to execute remote, high-altitude ski descents.
Tuscany Unlocked
FROM WILD LANDSCAPES TO PRIVATE MASTERPIECES
With a private villa as a base, guests will take to the skies by heli to unlock Tuscany’s most extraordinary experiences in quick succession. Soar to the dramatic Apuan Alps for an epic bike descent or a guided hike. Land next at a private open-air sculpture park to meet with the artist-owner whose world-renowned marble works bring the landscape to life. Then, take in the beauty of Crete Senesi, renowned for its undulating hills. Upon landing, journey by quad bike to a truffle-rich forest for a private truffle hunt led by expert guides and dogs, followed by a chef-prepared woodland feast. Between heli-hopping wine tastings at the region’s finest estates, the journey culminates in an unforgettable evening: the Uffizi Gallery entirely privatised, paired with an exceptional dinner and leading art experts.
The Morocco Triple Play
FROM ATLAS PEAKS TO ATLANTIC BREAKS
This is Morocco at full throttle. Guests can experience three radically different worlds in a single long weekend. Fly over the jagged Atlas Mountains, then transition seamlessly into silence as guests arrive by camel at a private desert tented camp. As night falls, dine beneath a canopy of stars with a leading astronomer guiding guests through the constellations. By morning, trade sand for sea with a private surf session with a pro on the Atlantic. The pace shifts again in the electric heart of the medina, where Cookson can orchestrate a night market shutdown and a rooftop riad DJ set at sunset.
Immersive Antiquity
A JOURNEY THROUGH 2,000 YEARS OF HISTORY
With the highly anticipated movie release of The Odyssey, directed by Christopher Nolan this July, now is the moment to live the thrill of ancient mythology firsthand. Spanning Greece’s idyllic islands by private yacht, Cookson will compress over two millennia of history into a single epic weekend: gain exclusive, private access to iconic temples, train like an Olympian in ancient amphitheatres, and be guided by world-class classics scholars who will bring these heroic legends vividly to life.
Dive between continents
IN ICELAND
Iceland is perfectly designed for a classic coolcation adventure. After all, the island sits on the edge of the Arctic Circle atop one of the world’s most volcanically active regions. It’s all made that bit more spectacular by winter’s Northern Lights and summer’s Midnight Sun. This is the only place in the world where it’s possible to dive between two tectonic plates, ski from summit-to-sea, and tear across black-sand beaches on ATVs all in one day. Cookson Adventures can even create a private aurora camp on a frozen lake, complete with icy cold plunges, a steaming sauna, and custom ice hockey rink.
Bring ‘The Traitors’ to Life
IN THE SCOTTISH HIGHLANDS
High in the Scottish Highlands, an immersive adventure unfolds. Guests are plunged into a world of sweeping landscapes, remote estates and high-stakes gameplay. Based in exclusive private lodges and Highland estates, days are driven by adrenaline-fuelled pursuits, from high-speed coastal safaris by RIB and e-foiling across Loch Ness, to trail running along exposed ridgelines and paramotoring over windswept moorlands. As night falls, the atmosphere shifts with dining set ups takes place in isolated bothies, on deserted beaches or beneath open skies. At the heart of the experience can be a personalised professional actor-led game that brings ‘The Traitors’ off-grid and into real life. Played out across Scotland’s cinematic landscapes, this live experience draws the group in and becomes a dramatic battle of deception and decision-making, where alliances shift, secrets unravel, and no one can be trusted.
