Abercrombie & Kent unveils Geoffrey Kent’s ultimate 2026 private jet journey

Abercrombie & Kent has announced a travel experience like no other: Around the World with Geoffrey Kent: An Inspiring Expedition by Private Jet

Departing October 2026, this custom-designed itinerary, crafted and hosted by A&K founder Geoffrey Kent, offers an unprecedented exploration across five continents. With just 48 guests aboard a fully customized Boeing 757, this journey combines the less visited regions of Australia, India and Portugal with a range of destinations most travellers would struggle to find on a map, such as the Cook Islands, Sumatra, Mozambique and Côte d’Ivoire.

Step back in time in the Cook Islands and explore the 600-year-old ruins of Arorangi’s “lost village,” then dive into the dazzling waters of Aitutaki’s Vaka Lagoon, where tropical fish shimmer in every hue.

From Adelaide, savor world-class regional wines, then plunge into adventure with a heart-pounding shark cage dive. Get up close with Australia’s unique wildlife at a private sanctuary, then journey to Kangaroo Island—Australia’s own Galapagos—where kangaroos, sea lions, and koalas roam freely in their natural paradise.

Unlock a rare opportunity with exclusive helicopter access to the closed-to-the-public Sumatran Rhino Sanctuary, witnessing firsthand the groundbreaking efforts to save one of the world’s most critically endangered species.

Immerse in Goa’s vibrant heritage, tracing Portugal’s influence through its architecture and flavors. Indulge in an unforgettable epicurean experience at the historic Figueiredo Mansion, where the owners welcome you into a world of exotic spices and storied traditions.

Venture into Mozambique’s Bazaruto Archipelago, where sugar-white sands meet sapphire seas. Set out on an island-hopping ocean safari, then feel the rush of a sunset dhow cruise and the exhilaration of dune boarding over golden sands.

Experience the pulse of West Africa in Abidjan, where the past and present blend seamlessly. Wander through the UNESCO-listed streets of Grand-Bassam, join in the rhythmic intensity of a traditional drumming performance in Fakaha, and celebrate the region’s rich culture at a dazzling gala dinner.

Sip your way through Madeira’s famed vineyards, savoring world-renowned wines while taking in panoramic coastal views. Hike through lush, emerald forests, then set sail on a private catamaran, watching dolphins dance along the sparkling coastline.

A personalized experience

To personalize the experience, A&K offers Design Your Day activities catering to diverse interests.

In Rarotonga, guests can choose a cycling tour with a Storyteller guide, a fishing charter, snorkelling with turtles, or a walking tour with local guides. In Adelaide, options include a guided nature walk at Cleland Conservation Park, a charter flight to Kangaroo Island, a wine tasting at Bekkers Wine, or a behind-the-scenes tour at Jurlique Farm followed by a spa treatment.

 

Experience luxury in the skies

A&K’s chartered Boeing 757 offers the utmost in comfort and style with 48 first-class, fully lie-flat seats and a range of amenities. Throughout each journey, a dedicated cabin crew (complete with executive chef) provides peerless personalized service, remembering each guest’s preferences and ensuring their favorite drink is ready without having to ask, whether that is a fresh espresso or champagne and caviar.

Experts are with guests every step of the way. Leading them is the A&K Tour Director, a virtuoso organizer who keeps everything running flawlessly. An onboard physician is on hand to manage any medical needs, while a dedicated Luggage Manager handles each guest’s bags between destinations. And a professional photographer travels with guests to share tips and capture the magic, in images that are guests to keep.

“Our team’s passion is what truly makes these trips so special,” says Epting. “From our air crew who make every flight feel like home, to our tour staff who bring destinations to life with meticulous attention to detail, it’s clear that our dedication shines through. Time and again, guests tell us they’d follow this exceptional team anywhere, and that’s the greatest testament to our commitment.”
