Private Travel
A journey built from scratch around your dates, pace and interests.
Life, well-travelled since 1962
Abercrombie & Kent
Guided Journeys
The company that made the luxury safari, on all seven continents.
Founded by Geoffrey Kent in 1962, A&K's advantage is the ground operation: its own offices, its own guides, and its own properties in the places it sends you. That is what makes the difference between a well-booked trip and one where somebody is already waiting at the airstrip.
Abercrombie & Kent invented the luxury safari and then spent sixty years extending the idea to every other continent. Today it runs private travel, small-group journeys, expedition cruises and its own private-jet programme, supported by more than 3,000 staff across 65 offices in 40 countries — including its own lodges and riverboats under A&K Sanctuary.

The Difference
What booking through us adds.
Preferred Partner Booking
Your booking carries partner recognition with A&K rather than arriving as an anonymous reservation.
Space on Sold-Out Departures
We work the waitlist directly with A&K rather than through a public form.
Itinerary Shaped Before You See It
We brief A&K on how you travel, so the first draft already fits.
One Point of Contact
Deposits, documents and changes run through us for the length of the booking.
