About us
Our Group Mission is:
1. Bring together a group of people who love to explore NYC. Our group is dedicated especially to fun activities outside of the typical NY bar scene(which means many times alcohol and a bar might be present, we dont want to totally discriminate, haha). There is so much to do in New York and we plan to bring you best of a variety of events.
2. If we can't host/plan and event, we still want to be your source for great things to do in NYC. We will be sending out a daily email of the Top Things To Do each day(most will be free too!). The email will also be archived on our message board so people can comment and gather there. If we cant host the event ourselves, we still hope members can reach out and get together. ****Please not if you do not wish to receive our daily email, you can adjust your settings so you do not get the email ***
We are all about fun, social, and networking. Events will be in a melting pot of different things, kinda like our great city. Look forward to meeting you!

Greek Islands Private Yacht Luxury Cruise! - June 2026
Location not specified yetGREEK ISLANDS PRIVATE YACHT LUXURY CRUISE!
• Dates: June 5 - 12, 2026 (8 days / 7 nights)
• Cost: from $6600 per person (excluding flights)
• Single supplement: Some rooms have, some do not
• Trip details: https://globe-drifters.com/trip/greece-cruise-june-2026/If you have any questions, please email info@globe-drifters.com.
Set sail on a private yacht for an exclusive adventure through the Greek islands…
Hidden Greek gems, fewer crowds: Our private yacht takes you to a handpicked selection of Greece’s most enchanting and lesser-known islands which large cruise ships can’t reach, offering a peaceful, crowd-free experience.
Timeless beauty, ancient treasures: Discover Folegandros, an island with roots dating back over 5,000 years, and explore Monemvasia, a medieval “rock town” where time stands still amid its ancient fortress.
Tailored luxury at sea: With just 24 rooms and 21 crew members, your experience is truly personalized. Enjoy daily yoga, meditation, and pilates sessions and unwind with spa treatments from a Balinese therapist. Plus, your cruise concierge will assist with optional excursions and dinner reservations, ensuring a seamless and stress-free vacation.
Since we’re on a small, private boat, we have a customized, hand-picked itinerary and we can sail to the more far-flung, less touristy islands; many of which are pedestrian-only (car-free!!) such as Folegandros.
This is a private, luxury cruise so that means…
• We’ll sail on a luxurious yacht with just 24 rooms and 21 crew members for a truly personalized experience.
• Our yacht is smaller so we can go to more far-flung islands that the big cruise ships don’t go to.
• There will be yoga, daily meditation, and pilates sessions with the wellness coach onboard.
• Spa treatments from a Balinese therapist on the yacht are also available!
• A concierge will be onboard to recommend what to eat, see, and do so you can just relax and enjoy your vacation!1 attendee
