What's a luxury concierge service and how can they help you?

Picture this: You're in a new city for a holiday, looking to grab tickets for an exciting event over the weekend. It's a little last minute, and you're not really sure how to go about it. So what do you do? This is where luxury concierge services come in. Just one call and all of your arrangements are made. Think of it as a personal assistant, but elevated. Now contrary to popular belief, luxury concierge services go well beyond plain convenience. They are designed to help you with a variety of extraordinary experiences—from getting access to exclusive experiences and hard-to-get reservations, to exceptionally curated travel itineraries—a good concierge service always has you covered.

For those who want to experience the best life has to offer, luxury concierge services deliver on this premise. As Karan Bhangay, co-founder of Indulge Global—a luxury concierge service explains, “Our team handles everything from luxury travel arrangements, like private jet charters, to securing exclusive access to events, art collections, and high-demand restaurants.” Each day is different for their team of “genies” working tirelessly to fulfil client requests with discretion and precision.  

More than convenience

Concierge services have always been thought of as a mere convenience. But now, they’re about creating memorable, personalised experiences. The power of luxury concierge services lies in their blend of advanced tech and a personal touch. While technology keeps them at the cutting edge, it’s the human element that makes the experience feel so unique. Advita Bihani, co-founder of Indulge Global, with her background in tech, brought AI into the mix to anticipate client needs, even before they express them. “Personalisation is at the heart of what we do,” says Bihani. “By blending AI with human creativity, we ensure that every service feels tailored, seamless, and meaningful.” Whether it’s booking a Michelin-starred meal on short notice or planning a wellness retreat, a concierge handles all the details, allowing clients to simply enjoy the experience.


Meeting the needs of a changing clientele  

Luxury concierge services have evolved from simple status symbols to a means of enriching life with unique, meaningful experiences. Today’s clients are looking for authenticity and cultural depth, prioritising one-of-a-kind moments over traditional luxury goods. Bihani and Bhangay have seen this shift firsthand: “More clients are investing in rich cultural experiences and are willing to spend on unforgettable moments,” notes Bhangay.  

In response to these shifting client expectations, concierge services are expanding their offerings and developing new tools, including apps that provide clients with exclusive access to curated products, content, and personalised calendars, allowing users to manage their lifestyles with ease, enhancing the overall luxury experience.


Ultimately, a luxury concierge service wants to help clients make the most of their lives. Whether that means arranging a private dinner in an exclusive venue or planning an off-the-beaten-path travel adventure, the “genies” are there to make it happen. For those who value their time as much as they value quality, this kind of service offers a chance to experience life in a way that is seamless and meaningful. In the world of luxury concierge services, it’s not just about getting things done; it’s about doing them in a way that makes every experience feel unique.
