Dear Traveller,

I invite you on one of the most extraordinary journeys you will ever take: a 26-day, around-the-world odyssey by private jet that accommodates just 50 fortunate guests in unparalleled luxury.

I personally designed this voyage to combine some of my favorite places with exotic destinations visited by only a privileged few. Since its debut in 2014, this journey has sold out two consecutive years and, having travelled on its inaugural departure myself, I am confident it will once again meet with an enthusiastic response.

The itinerary includes Kenya’s Masai Mara, the land where I grew up and A&K began — you view its incomparable wildlife from a Hemingway-style tented camp. Less familiar but equally alluring, Bali and Sri Lanka delight with their scenic beauty, uncommon wildlife and uniquely storied history. Your journey ends in my adopted home of Monaco, where I will be your host for a celebratory dinner.

As always with A&K, exploration and ease go hand in hand. Our exclusively chartered Boeing 757 comes equipped with 50 fully lie-flat, first-class seats, enabling you to enjoy private air travel as it was meant to be, while each stop on your journey offers the finest available in lodging, cuisine and local expertise.

I am proud to present this journey, and look forward to meeting you in person in Monaco.

Geoffrey Kent Founder, Chairman & CEO Abercrombie & Kent

we witnessed timeless traditions thriving in the present day.

Around the World by Private Jet: Islands, Savannas & the Amazon

Experience a Globe-Spanning Voyage in Unmatched Comfort and Style

Abercrombie & Kent began in Kenya in 1962, when founder Geoffrey Kent led his first luxury safaris, equipped with little more than a refrigerated truck and a sterling silver ice bucket. Since then, we have brought our trademark blend of authentic discovery and uncompromising service to more than 100 countries and every continent. Around the World by Private Jet continues A&K’s trailblazing spirit with an extraordinary globe-spanning journey that includes some of the least-visited places on earth — as well as the same plains of Kenya where A&K started more than five decades ago.

Join a group of 50 privileged guests on a voyage developed by Geoffrey Kent himself, venturing from the world’s mightiest river to its most mysterious islands, from a land where dragons roam to savannas thriving with iconic wildlife. Observe remarkable flora and fauna, and take in vistas of spectacular beauty. Dine on gourmet food in the African bush and enjoy a celebratory feast beside the Pacific Ocean.

Travel in utmost comfort and style aboard our exclusively chartered Boeing 757 in one of its 50 fully lie-flat, first-class seats. And end your journey at a special event with the man who set the standard for luxury adventure travel, A&K founder Geoffrey Kent.
