Time will show if the business model of Vrtuoso has a future. For me they remain an unnecessary intermediary offering only a very limited choice to their customers. This is not real travel advising.
If they are so good and global why on their website you have only the choice of being a guest from the Americas and Australia/New Zealand ?
I persist in stating that their selection is somewhat bland. The confusion between travel agent, marketing group and who knows what is irritating. LHW can not be compared with, as they are a globally recognized brand with consistency - not a small luxury lodge here and a corporate chain hotel there.
