Discover Latin America, Where Choice is the Ultimate Luxury

Abercrombie & Kent Luxury Tailor Made Journeys showcase the best of the region, curated by experts who know it inside and out

 

 

DOWNERS GROVE, IL – June 21, 2017… Abercrombie & Kent (A&K) brings the luxury of choice to Latin America with a tempting portfolio of Luxury Tailor Made Travel experiences. Recommended itineraries highlight historic cities, can’t-miss sites — as well as hidden gems — and the finest hotels and restaurants. These day-by-day suggestions provide a starting point for an in-depth conversation with an A&K Tour Consultant about where the traveler wants to go and their travel interests. A team of Travel Consultants dedicated to Latin America can offer personal recommendations because they have spent time in the region themselves.

 

“For art lovers, we might recommend a walking tour, led by a local artist, of Bogotá’s independent design stores, traditional galleries and graffiti works addressing current issues,” explains Product Manager Claudia Worth. “In La Paz, guests have the opportunity to taste Bolivian delicacies on a culinary tour, or in Bariloche, a visit to a local brewery to learn the secrets of Northern Patagonia’s distinctive beers. While in Rio, we can arrange a behind-the-scenes look at Carnival — or a cruise on a privately-chartered sailboat in Guanabara Bay for a view of the skyline.”

 

Whereas other travel companies rely on third-party guides and suppliers, A&K has six offices throughout Latin America, including a newly opened office in Brazil, staffed by full-time local experts who work tirelessly to ensure that every aspect of each journey meets Abercrombie & Kent’s rigorous standards of quality and service for an authentic, beyond-the-guidebook perspective.  Guests meet people with an intimate, lifelong knowledge of the region for a new understanding of how life is lived in this part of the world.

A&K’s on-the-ground experts have inspected hundreds of hotels, including five-star properties; charming, one-of-a-kind boutique hotels; and family-friendly hotels with all-ages amenities. This firsthand knowledge makes it possible to recommend the perfect choice for each guest.
