The Abercrombie & Kent Difference

Fine Dining and Entertainment
Throughout your "Cultural Treasures" journey, you are treated to gracious local hospitality and outstanding regional cuisines at their authentic best. Savor Polynesian delicacies at a traditional feast in Bora Bora. In Amman, dine amidst the ruins of an ancient Roman temple, to the accompaniment of musicians and dancers. Sample vodka and caviar in grand Russian tradition at a time-honored St. Petersburg ceremony. Your culinary adventures extend to the finest restaurants in each destination.

Design Your DaySM Options
Sharing inspiring experiences with likeminded travellers is one of the finest pleasures of an A&K journey - but all travellers occasionally need to venture out on their own. A&K's exclusive Design Your Day options let you set your own itinerary with your own activities. Fly by light aircraft over Sydney's magnificent harbor, experience the Middle East's first indoor ski resort in Dubai and follow an Uffizi curator on a behind-thescenes tour of Florence's most famous gallery. Whatever your interest, A&K handles all the details, leaving you free to enjoy your day.

Privileged Access
A&K's exclusive invitation-only events turn an already remarkable journey into an unforgettable one. In Sydney, shop for Aboriginal art in the company of an expert. At the Dubai Polo Club, watch a polo match and afterward meet the players. Enjoy a private visit to Estates Theatre in Prague where Mozart's Don Giovanni debuted. An exclusive before-hours visit to the Hermitage adds a memorable touch to your stay in St. Petersburg. These events are specially arranged by A&K to impart the essence of every "Cultural Treasures" destination.

The Finest Accommodations
We've chosen accommodations that are not only the best, but the best examples of the spirit and style of each stop along your way. From your private over-water bungalow at the St. Regis Resort, Bora Bora, to Orient-Express' exquisitely appointed 15th-century Villa San Michele in Florence and its enchanting and historic Grand Hotel Europe in St. Petersburg, accommodations are unique to the exotic lands you visit. For a leisurely pace, you'll check in for two or usually three nights at each stop.

The A&K Touch
Set out on your journey with a convenient rolling cabin bag, attractive tote, backpack, neck pillow and hat, all designed exclusively for A&K. To enhance your enjoyment, a stateof- the-art audio system enables you to clearly hear your guide's commentary as you explore museums and sites at your own pace.

Expert Guidance
The accomplished Tour Director and Tour Managers accompanying this program have been chosen from the highest ranks of A&K's international coterie of professional guides. They are ideal travelling companions: experienced, affable, intelligent, well informed and dedicated to the success of your trip.

Ten Reasons Why A&K is the Right Choice for Private Jet Travel

#1) Experience - Founded in 1962, Abercrombie & Kent is the original luxury travel company. A&K built its reputation by providing unexpected comforts and amenities in remote destinations, and continues that tradition with its private jet program. A&K pioneered private jet travel onboard the Concorde and has several decades of direct experience arranging private jet journeys. A&K was named "World's Leading Luxury Specialist Tour Operator" by travel professionals from 80,000 travel agencies in more than 200 countries at the World Travel Awards, "Readers Choice: Tour Operator - Luxury" by Travel Weekly and "Best Tour Operator - Africa/Middle East" by Recommend.

#2) VIP Aircraft with Lounge - A&K's Boeing 757-200 ER aircraft is reconfigured to accommodate just 50 passengers in VIP seats. Designer amenities, sumptuous in-flight meals including premium bar, and a spacious and comfortable lounge add to the exclusivity of an A&K journey by private jet.

#3) Global Support Network - A&K's on-site offices around the world are devoted to the comfort and security of A&K guests. These local offices are small enough to offer personal attention, yet, as a group of companies, A&K is large enough to secure the best accommodations, escorts, and insider access, as well as expedited customs and immigration service at airports in many destinations.

#4) Superior Guides - Multilingual tour escorts have an intimate knowledge of local flora and fauna, history, geography and culture. These professional guides are experts whose education, field research, exploration and personal accomplishments make them ideal companions.

#5) Best Available Accommodations - Guests do not sacrifice comfort for adventure. A&K reserves the best room class below a suite and insures that rooms are available for immediate check-in, with day rooms provided, when appropriate. Suite upgrades are offered, where available. Hotel meals are usually a la carte or part of private gala events that usually include local entertainment.

#6) Privileged Access - With a staff of natives and longtime residents, A&K's local offices have access to exclusive locations, unique attractions and special celebrations not available to most visitors.

#7) Choice - A&K offers several private jet journeys each year encompassing unique and unusual destinations that are virtually impossible to complete via commercial air. These itineraries, usually with three nights in each destination, offer guests adequate time for meaningful cultural experiences.

#8) Service - A&K offers commercial air assistance to and from departure cities, all gratuities while on tour, and handles every tour detail from the time guests arrive for the welcome dinner until the private jet lands at the end of the journey. A dedicated Luggage Manager travels with you on all private jet journeys and ensures expedited luggage handling throughout the program.

#9) Peace of Mind - A&K offers the convenience, service and security of a U.S.-based company, with on-site support 24/7 from 48 local offices. A&K is a member of the United States Tour Operators Association (USTOA) and its $1 million consumer protection plan.

#10) Conservation - A commitment to sustainable tourism has earned A&K the ASTA Smithsonian Environmental Award, honourable mention for Conde Nast Traveler's Ecotourism Award and the Green Award for Corporate Social Leadership in Travel & Tourism from the World Travel & Tourism Council. The Los Angeles Times described A&K as "a highly respected company dedicated to conservation and environmentally friendly tourism." A&K offsets the carbon footprint of private jet travel by planting thousands of trees in Kenya's Masai Mara as part of the Climate Change Challenge.
