Building a real eco-tech glamping resort in Colorado.

Most aerial tours are designed to impress you.

Very few are designed to stay with you.

When people think about air experiences, they imagine views.

Helicopters.

Hot air balloons.

Small aircraft.

And yes — the visuals are powerful.

But here’s the problem:

Most of these experiences are passive.

You go up.

You look around.

You take a few photos.

And then it’s over.

That’s not what I want to build.

For Da Vinci Glamping, the goal isn’t to offer aerial tours.

It’s to design an aerial experience layer that changes how people perceive the landscape.

The approach is simple — but intentional:

→ Partnering with local aerial tour operators across Northern Colorado

→ Offering multiple access points: • Hot air balloon flights (slow, silent, atmospheric)

• Helicopter tours (dynamic, structured exploration)

• Small charter aircraft (extended range, broader perspective)

But the real shift is not the vehicle.

It’s the experience design around it.

• Guests are equipped with action cameras and simple recording tools

• The focus is not just on capturing images — but on capturing perspective

• Routes are selected not only for beauty, but for narrative value

Because seeing something from above…

is very different from understanding what you’re looking at.

And this is where most experiences fall short.

They show you scale.

But they don’t give you meaning.

That’s the gap I’m trying to close.

Still early stage, and partnerships will define feasibility.

But the direction is clear.

Less “look at this”.

More “now you understand it”.

Would an experience like this make the difference for you —

or is the view alone enough?

For Da Vinci Glamping, proximity to a swimmable body of water isn’t optional.
It’s a core requirement.
Because water allows us to design a completely different type of interaction:
slower, more intuitive, and accessible to a wider range of guests.
The experience is structured in two complementary layers.
1) Kayaking — accessible exploration
Designed for all levels, including families and first-time users.
• Simple, guided routes
• Optional AI-assisted device for instructions and orientation
• Integrated safety systems, with alerts in case of anomalies or distress
The goal is not performance.
It’s confidence, accessibility, and connection with the environment.
2) Lake Boating — controlled freedom
A small electric boat, ideally powered through solar-supported charging systems.
Silent, low-impact, and easy to operate.
• Daytime use for relaxation or fishing
• Sunset experiences designed around stillness and atmosphere
• Optional onboard aperitivo, prepared by the glamping
Featuring:
– Local craft beverages, including regional breweries
– Selected Italian specialties curated by the internal team
This is where the experience shifts:
From activity → to atmosphere.
From movement → to presence.
The intention is simple:
Not just to offer water-based activities,
but to create moments that people associate with calm, space, and memory.
Still early in design.
But this is the direction.
Would this be something you’d personally look for in a place like this?

Most places show you the landscape.
Very few help you actually understand it.
That’s the shift I keep seeing in hospitality.
It’s not about where you stay anymore.
It’s about how deeply you experience the environment around you.
That’s why I’m designing something different.
Not just places —
but systems that guide exploration.
Imagine this:
You’re hiking in Northern Colorado.
No signal. No guide.
Just you and the landscape.
But you’re not alone.
• A device guides your route, even offline
• It adapts based on your level and conditions
• It tells you what you’re seeing — geology, history, wildlife
• It turns a simple trail into a story
You’re not just walking.
You’re understanding.
That’s the difference.
Not more amenities.
Better perception.
Would this make you explore more — or feel like too much?
