Abercrombie & Kent is internationally recognized as the original luxury travel company. Born as an African safari company in 1962, A&K's unparalleled tour and travel operations now extend across the globe to more than one hundred countries on all seven continents. A&K combines expert pre-departure service in the U.S. with something extraordinary — company-owned offices around the globe. All are staffed by full time A&K travel professionals, ready to make certain that every aspect of your stay in their home region is not just a bland encounter with a foreign culture, but a fascinating, faultless and, above all, extraordinary experience.

Abercombie and Kent visits all seven continents, ranging from an African Safari worthy of Hemingway, to a trek on foot to the South Pole.  Travel with a small group of like-minded adventurers, or an intimate party of family and friends. You can now book both 2013 and 2014 travel with Abercrombie and Kent...

As well as ensuring your comfort, Abercrombie and Kent's long-standing connections allow them to uncover local secrets and experiences beyond the reach of the ordinary traveller. From exotic dining opportunities to once-in-a-lifetime encounters with friendly local people, A&K can arrange the kind of privileged access that sets them apart from other travel companies.

Picture yourself sitting down to dine in the African bush, attended by white-gloved staff. Or practicing the tango in the ballroom of a historic mansion in Buenos Aires with a local expert guiding your steps. Imagine going behind the scenes at Sydney's Taronga Zoo, studying the Medicis' private art collection in Florence or descending into the magnificent tomb of Seti I, where access is only granted to a select few.

A&K calls these "& moments," the occasions of surprise and delight that make travel with Abercrombie & Kent so distinctly inspiring. An "& moment" might be a meeting with a renowned cultural expert, taking a meal in the quiet solitude of a 300-year-old abbey or joining Buddhist monks in an offering of food and incense. All introduce you to your destination with an intimacy beyond the reach of any other travel company.

Their expertise extends to every aspect of your journey: experts not only in luxury, but in culture, wildlife and history, and they know how to blend them all to seamlessly reveal your destination. Guides are chosen for their absolute (sometimes lifelong) dedication to understanding those wonders that make every place unique.
