Nota Bene Global: Where Curated Travel Meets Quiet Precision

For those who live well, travel is not a luxury. It is a rhythm of life. But even the most seasoned travellers can find the process increasingly transactional, reduced to dropdown menus, influencer lists and crowded concierge inboxes. This is exactly the kind of fatigue Nota Bene Global was built to solve.

Founded by travel and real estate advisor Anthony Lassman, Nota Bene is a private, membership-based service for those who prefer to move through the world quietly and exceptionally.

It does not operate like a concierge or travel agency. Instead, it offers something rarer: strategic, culturally-informed curation that comes from experience, not algorithms.

And in a world that claims everything is bespoke, Nota Bene actually is.

From Normandy to Rome: What Travel Looks Like with Nota Bene

Two recent concepts shared by the team offer a glimpse into what membership unlocks. The Patriot’s Journey, for example, is an 11-day itinerary through Paris, Normandy and Versailles, designed not just to visit but to understand.

From private viewings at Les Invalides and sunset dinners at the Eiffel Tower, to flying in a DC3 over Omaha Beach with military commentary, it is a lesson in history, beauty and emotional immersion. Elevated, seamless, and never performative.

Meanwhile, the Rome Concept leans into intimacy and access. There are hidden frescoes in private palazzi. After-hours storytelling among the works of Caravaggio and Bernini. A slow lunch near the Borghese Gardens, followed by shopping on Via del Babuino. Less about what you see, more about how you see it.

Across both, the attention to detail is striking. There is no checklist. No template. Just a team that travels relentlessly, knows who to call, and curates with purpose.

Beyond the Trip: Real Estate with Integrity

Nota Bene does not stop at travel. Its real estate division provides strategic advice and access to super-prime property in some of the world’s most desirable locations. London, Paris, the French Riviera, New York, the Hamptons and St Barths are all within scope.

This is not a brokerage service. Nota Bene represents buyers only, offering confidential guidance based on long-standing relationships and deep local knowledge.

Properties are often sourced privately, before they reach the market. In that sense, the real estate offering reflects the same values as the travel service: integrity, clarity, and focus.

The Final Piece: Luggage, Curated

The last addition to the Nota Bene offering is luggage. Overseen by Elaine Lassman, this arm of the brand sources rare and beautiful travel pieces, offers packing guidance for different itineraries, and manages storage and delivery for clients who move often and expect their belongings to keep pace.

It is a thoughtful touch. One that recognises luxury is often defined not by big gestures, but by small, well-executed details.

Why It Works

There is no shortage of options in the luxury travel world. What makes Nota Bene Global different is the way it simplifies choice.

Clients are not given a menu of five-star hotels. They are offered the right suite, in the right location, at the right time.

It might be a jazz season in Provence. A quiet anniversary in Kyoto. A summer villa in Mustique found before it was ever listed.

This is not travel planning. It is private advisory, shaped by knowledge and trust.
