Luxury travel company Abercrombie & Kent has launched two new private jet tours. The first tour, “Wildlife & Nature: Around the World by Private Jet,” will be available in the fall of 2024. The second tour, “Africa: Across a Continent by Private Jet,” will be available in 2025.
“Travelers look to A&K for the quintessential African journey, as well as intriguing destinations they may never have thought to visit,” explains Ann Epting, Senior Vice President of Private Jet & Special Interest Travel.
“Africa: Across A Continent by Private Jet is an immersive itinerary that features a brand new destination, Tunisia, home to the most well-preserved Roman sites on the continent. I’m also excited to introduce guests to Benin, where they’ll discover a village on the water often referred to as the Venice of West Africa, in addition to delivering some of our guests’ most beloved safari experiences in Rwanda, Kenya, and Botswana, camping under the stars in Morocco’s Sahara Desert and more.”
Both journeys will take place onboard Abercrombie & Kent’s chartered Boeing 757. It has been outfitted with 48 first class, lie-flat seats with amenities like iPads, noise-canceling headphones, and tailor-made Briggs & Riley amenity kits.
Each journey features a dedicated cabin crew, including an executive chef and personalized service. Every destination also has local guides and staff to make the experience seamless.
One of the main benefits of private jet journeys is the ability to reach destinations that are not easily accessible via major carriers. This saves time and allows travelers to experience as many destinations as possible.
Abercrombie & Kent, not tied to a specific hotel brand, can also curate more authentic experiences in places many people might not be able to travel to.
The Wildlife & Nature
This is a 26-day journey that begins in Hawaii and takes guests to some of the most unique wildlife-spotting destinations.
The itinerary also includes visits to Fiji, Tasmania, Indonesia, Sri Lanka, Mauritius, Zambia, Salvador, Brazil, and the Amazon.
During the trip, guests can participate in activities such as visiting a rehabilitation center dedicated to saving the monk seal and searching for the endangered Sri Lankan leopard in Yala National Park. Accommodation will be provided at places like Jumeirah Bali, Mauna Lani, and the Chena Huts.
About Africa
For 2025, Abercrombie & Kent has added Africa: Across a Continent by Private Jet as an itinerary.
The journey takes guests on a 23-day adventure through London, Tunisia, South Africa, Rwanda, Kenya, Botswana, and Morocco.
Travelers can experience various things throughout the journey, including the Winelands, wildlife, and the Roman ruins.
During the experience, guests can personalize the journey with cultural encounters, wellness experiences, or outdoor excursions. Accommodations throughout the trip are intended to embody the authenticity of each city and will be housed in places such as The Oberoi, one of the top-rated resorts in Marrakech, along with the Angama Mara overlooking Kenya’s Masai Mara.
