Brazil travel planning & private concierge

A hotel concierge looks after guests of one property. A private concierge looks after your visit as a whole: shaping the itinerary around your interests and pace, and handling requests for stays, restaurants, cultural outings and local transport. With Vanguard Attaché, planning and concierge assistance is included with your private transportation or protection engagement, within the scope and service hours agreed in your proposal. The proposal states which arrangements Vanguard Attaché coordinates or books on your behalf and which stay with you or your travel advisor, and each request remains a request until it is confirmed in writing.

Start with your dates, destinations, interests and preferred pace. Planning and concierge assistance is included with a transport or protection engagement, within the agreed scope. The written proposal defines responsibilities, service hours, charges and confirmations.

Planning and concierge assistance are included within an agreed transport and/or protection engagement. The written proposal defines the scope, responsibilities, service hours, charges and booking confirmations.

Yes. Start with the existing itinerary, the choices still open and the person authorized to approve them. Agree who on your side will be the planning contact and how proposed changes will be approved. Your advisor, assistant or family-office contact can join the planning conversation; the proposal sets out booking and payment responsibilities and identifies what Vanguard Attaché coordinates and what stays with you or your advisor.

Yes. Describe what is already booked and the arrangements you want help with. The conversation establishes what support can be proposed for your visit, subject to availability and written confirmation.

A request is not a confirmed booking. Check availability, admission conditions and the written confirmation for each arrangement before relying on it.

Compare the transport or protection services, included concierge assistance, exclusions, third-party costs and confirmation process. Check service hours and change or cancellation terms before committing.

Your written proposal specifies the agreed transport or protection service hours and the included concierge assistance. Confirm any overtime charges and how extensions are approved before committing. A daily booking covers the included hours stated in your proposal.

For accommodation, activities and agreed local transport, both booking models are available, as agreed in the proposal: you or your advisor can book and pay suppliers directly, or Vanguard Attaché can arrange and pay for agreed bookings on your behalf. Before committing, confirm the booking holder, who pays whom, supplier charges, our agreed fees and the cancellation terms for each arrangement.

A driver for your Rio days can be part of the private transportation in your proposal, with planning and concierge assistance included. Share your dates, arrival airport, accommodation, stops, travelers and luggage. The proposal sets out the vehicle and driver arrangement, the included service hours, and the waiting, overtime and cancellation terms. Availability of the driver and vehicle must be confirmed in writing for your dates before you rely on them. If the driver also needs protective responsibilities, see security drivers, where that role is scoped separately.

Pricing is provided by written quote after scope, itinerary, availability, legal delivery requirements, taxes, and third-party costs are assessed. Planning and concierge assistance is included with your transport or protection engagement, within the agreed scope, and is not priced as a separate service. Your written proposal states our agreed fees, supplier charges, included service hours and any overtime charges before you commit.
