Top Luxury Travel On Sale And That Rarely Happens

Top luxury travel company Abercrombie & Kent (A&K) pioneered adventure travel with their first African safaris in 1962. Today their award-winning travel services extend around the globe. They travel to more than one hundred countries on all seven continents. A&K Luxury enables travelers to choose from various levels of luxury as well. We saw that first hand on one of their A&K Luxury Connections river cruises. That’s a more budget-minded version. Still, it is was anything but skimpy on the luxury. In the end, it brought a truly unique European river cruising experience. Bumping up the lux a bit, we enjoyed an Egypt and The Nile Small Group Journey. That went far beyond a river cruise. The experience included social, political and economic perspectives in addition to the historical view we expected. On an A&K Luxury Signature travel experience, I was one of four travelers with an experienced A&K guide. Along with a driver, they custom designed a trip through Jordan. No problem: we stopped at places of interest to us.. It’s a rare when we see the word ‘luxury’ and ‘discount’ in the same sentence. Still, A&K has just that for a limited time on some upcoming European river cruise trips.

A&K is currently offering savings of up to $1,000 per person on select Connections European River Cruise Journeys when booked by June 30, 2016. Solo travelers save even more with an additional $500 off. Select journeys in cabin categories B-1, B-4, C-1, C-4 include:

Late Spring and Summer are great times to visit Europe and experience the best weather, colorful gardens and lively town squares. Still, at this peak time of year, a good value can be difficult to find. That makes top luxury travel company Abercrombie & Kent savings of $1,000 per person on select Connections European River Cruise Journeys an extraordinary value worth a look. They simply just don’t discount. Click on one of the itineraries above to see an even better part of the offer: these trips are quite unique and not offered by others.

One of the unique highlights of any river cruise for those who have sailed on big ocean ships is the number of people they travel with. Instead of thousands, the number drops to an average of less than two hundred. That makes a huge difference in the experience. A unique A&K luxury Small Group or Connections product advantage, that number drops to an average of less than two dozen.

In a series titled Abercrombie & Kent Luxury, we highlighted many of the A&K Differences that make for truly luxurious travel. Germain to our discussion here, each Abercrombie & Kent River Cruise Journey includes two or more exclusive A&K luxury shore excursions such as a private waltz lesson in Vienna or lunch with a local family on their farm in Provence, excursions that are only available to A&K guests. Also unique are city visits before and after cruising, allowing time to explore cultural hubs such as Amsterdam, Munich, Budapest and Paris. The small group size allows access to distinctive local accommodations not available to larger groups.

Interestingly, this promotion also discounts some programs which usually have quite limited availability.

A Family Land Journey
Family travel is hot and top luxury travel company A&K wants their slice of the pie. Traveling with extended family? Save an additional $500 off the single supplement price on Connections Europe Family journeys to Central Europe, Italy, Scotland & Ireland, Spain, Amsterdam, Paris & London – for a combined savings of up to $1,500.

Itineraries are handcrafted by A&K experts on the ground, that same advantage that had us whisked through security checkpoints throughout our Middle East trip with professionals who know each city intimately and plan the most rewarding experiences during what can be a very busy time of year. Examples: at Spain’s Sagrada Familia, A&K guests use a rear entrance, rather than waiting in a line that often wraps around the block. In Rome, visits to the Colosseum are planned for earlier in the day — before the cruise ship crowds arrive.

To make that magic happen, group size is kept small, with no more than 24 guests, allowing more one-on-one interaction with an expert A&K Resident Tour Director^® who orchestrates each journey from beginning to end with the ability to modify itineraries as opportunities present themselves to bring an even better travel experience than planned. That’s in addition to being a friendly travel companion focused on ensuring each member of the group enjoys the trip to the fullest. Expert local guides enhance the experience by making each destination come alive with their passion for sharing the most compelling aspects of the places they call home.
