Based upon our nearly 8 decades curating itineraries throughout the world, we offer a wonderful range of Private Journeys that are ‘ready-to-book’ in many of our destinations. These Private Journeys can even be adjusted with additional nights, sightseeing and extensions to meet a guest’s request. 

However, for guests with specific travel plans that diverge from our ‘ready-to-book’ itineraries, A+R Custom Journeys builds exclusive programs tailored to match their travel needs.
 
Our boutique team of Custom Journeys experts are available for an initial conversation to learn in detail which aspects of luxury travel the guest prioritizes most and exactly what experiences they desire. Guided by our key operating structure, our experts will provide a detailed quotation using our network of the world’s finest hotels, luxury safari camps, adventure properties and authentic cultural engagement opportunities.

How we operate

We ask our guests to provide an initial travel budget and the number in the traveling party for a journey of at least 8 days. Upscale accommodations with private sightseeing, expert local guides, private drivers and high-speed rail or regional flights are the basics of our arrangements in all destinations. We do not include car rentals or apartment and villa stays in our itineraries.
