Tern & Meridian is a bespoke luxury travel advisory built for travelers who want to go far, see deeply, and come home changed. Founded by Piper Eskridge, an Adventure Architect with a background as a nature and rail guide in Alaska and years spent designing journeys across Hawaii, Alaska, Canada, Costa Rica, Chile, Argentina, and the Polar regions, Tern & Meridian specializes in wildlife, expedition, and culturally immersive travel.

Every itinerary is fully custom, with no templates and no fixed packages. Women traveling solo or in small groups get the same white-glove planning as any client, plus something more: destination-specific safety research woven into every recommendation, from neighborhood and guide vetting to local emergency contacts and know-before-you-go guidance that goes well beyond the usual travel-blog checklist.

Responsible travel is not an add-on here, it’s the standard. That means genuinely vetted guides and drivers, real conservation fees rather than greenwashed ones, and a deliberate focus on supporting local businesses and economies at every stop. The goal is simple: connect travelers to the places they visit, not just the sights within them.

Wild instinct. Precise intention. Let’s start planning!
