About Abercrombie and Kent

Travel is by definition the notion of moving from one place to another. In 1962 Abercrombie & Kent enhanced this simple definition and began exclusive safari journeys providing traveller’s access to remote parts of Africa in a mode of style and innovation that would facilitate a remarkable travel experience. Today, A&K destinations have extended across the globe as we seek out new sights, stories and experiences throughout the seven continents. As our portfolio continues to grow, we empower our clients with intimate passage into the most hidden corners of the world.

The A&K philosophy has long advocated travel as a way of educating individuals in the diversity of culture and the untamed beauty of the natural world. In virtually every country, climate change is having a devastating long-term impact, threatening wildlife and marine species, displacing fragile ecosystems and challenging ways of life for communities everywhere. Abercrombie & Kent continues to work alongside Friends of Conservation to ensure we are doing our utmost to respect and preserve our planet. We will continue to update you and involve you in our efforts through the A&K Climate Change Challenge.

It is a great source of pride that A&K is considered a leader in exceptional travel – this has indeed been our journey. We hope you find the freedom to dream and the aspiration to experience.

The Abercrombie and Kent Difference

To travel A&K style is to experience the unbelievable, to have the feeling of being in the right place at the right time, every single time. We go to the ends of the earth to create a journey that will change your life.

Tailor-made Itineraries

For some travellers, the best itinerary is their own.

Abercrombie & Kent designs bespoke journeys for independent travellers. Our personalised programmes reflect your individual interests and needs. Unless joining one of our escorted Small Group Journeys, travel is solely with your chosen partner or companions. Leading A&K guides join you in each locale and transport is by private chauffeur drive.

Over 40 years of experience has seen A&K specialising in destinations and itineraries that are extraordinary. From exotic dining opportunities to authentic connections with local people, we can arrange the kind of privileged access that sets an Abercrombie & Kent journey beyond all others.

In contrast to other travel companies who rely on third parties to create their programmes and support them on the ground, every A&K itinerary is backed by handpicked staff in our 60 offices worldwide. These trusted individuals are on call around the clock to ensure complete care and unsurpassed attention on your journey. An accommodation choice is available on many of the itineraries. ‘Platinum’ represents the finest and most exclusive option where ‘Gold’ classifies 5 star service with value for money.

Our travel specialists are passionate travellers themselves and individuals who thrive upon developing a trusting relationship with their clients.

The & Moment

Picture yourself in sophisticated Beunos Aires enjoying a romantic dinner for two, compliments of A&K. Allow us to treat you to a cabin upgrade and a heavenly two hour spa treatment as you sail the Yangzi River onboard the elegant Sanctuary Yangzi Explorer. Visit Abu Simbel, one of Egypt’s major highlights, at no extra charge on your ‘Land of the Pharaohs’ itinerary. We call these “& moments”. Each inspiring a further intimacy with your destination beyond the reach of other travel companies. Look for these “& moments” to understand what gives every A&K journey that unforgettable extra touch.

Insider Access

The global A&K ground team in charge of hosting your itinerary consist of the highest calibre experts in their fields. In Egypt you will be touring with your personal Egyptologist; in Antarctica your experiences are guided by a team of naturalists, geologists and zoologists; on safari in Africa it is reassuring to know your guide has been specially trained by the A&K school, responsible for the highest guide standards across the continent.

Most often academics and always proficient translators, our guides are highly trained in the historical and cultural activity of their homeland, identifying the unique aspects of a place and gaining access to an everyday world generally closed to mainstream tourists. A&K Insider Access enables real interaction with local culture. Dine with a local family in Cairo, sit in the classroom with kids at a primary school in Africa, spend time with one of Florence’s ancient noble families; the Count will personally take you through his palace! A&K has the experience, reputation and connections to get you inside the everyday life of a culture with dependability and professionalism.

Pearls of local wisdom

There are so many hidden secrets across the globe. Left to chance, you may be lucky enough to stumble across some of them unexpectedly, others you may never realise exist. A&K’s hand picked Pearls of Local Wisdom encapsulates the favourite little spots, gatherings, and perfect moments that we’ve spied or sought out through street level knowledge of our destinations. Our ‘Pearls’ are often off the beaten-track and infused with local experience. A secluded archaeological sight, the local hot spot for cuisine and atmosphere, a rare festival or the lively beauty of a neighbourhood market are all the little gems that help make your travels inspiring.

Design your day

Choice is the essence of true luxury. In selected destinations you will find we have grouped together potential combinations for a fantastic day of sightseeing. Choose the option that most excites your imagination or talk to an A&K Travel Specialist when booking to find out what’s best for you. We will handle all the necessary details including transportation, guides and meal plans to make your personally designed day work magically.

Choices: Platinum or Gold

In most A&K destinations, we offer you a choice of accommodation: the ‘Platinum’ category represents the absolute finest and most exclusive in hotels, camps or lodges, using superior room types and Club Floor access where available.
