Pricing — the Daraism & Artists model

— An Invitation to Participate

At Daraism & Artists, our pricing is not a barrier; it’s an invitation to engage in a community built on care and dignity. We use a pay-it-forward model to ensure our journeys are welcoming, sustainable, and generous to the people who make them possible.

Our principle

Equity-based. Minimum suggested amount. Pay-it-forward.

• Private & Exclusive Journeys — Value & Minimum Suggested Amount

Private journeys are made widely available, with multiple start times and space for personalized intentions or interests. These experiences offer the fullest room for connection — intimate, flexible, and crafted with care around the rhythm of your day.

Every journey is prepared with intention: time, thoughtful preparation, fair compensation for artists and hosts, and the heartfelt care required to create an intimate, meaningful encounter. To honor this work, we share both the standard value and the minimum suggested amount.

Standard Value

USD 65.00 per person
This reflects the true value of the experience — the artistry, preparation, and presence that go into every private journey.

Minimum Suggested Amount

USD 60.00 per person, with a minimum of 4 guests (USD 240.00 per private group).
This minimum keeps the experience accessible while sustaining the people and places that make it possible.
Couples and trios are warmly welcome to book a private journey; the minimum suggested amount remains based on 4 guests, ensuring the experience stays intimate, intentional, and sustainable.

For Group of 5 to 10: Each additional guest is USD 55.00, extending the private experience while keeping it personal and connected — up to a maximum of 10 guests.
