The Most Luxurious Road Trip from behind the wheel of the most luxurious Range Rover ever produced: Land Rover Adventure Travel by Abercrombie & Kent.
The Most Luxurious Road Trip On Earth takes in five continents, eight countries and nine of the world’s best hotels. It was developed by Land Rover and luxury travel company Abercrombie & Kent to offer three weeks of luxury combined with the greatest driving routes, both on-road and off-road. The travelers experience truly off-the-beaten-track driving experiences from behind the wheel of the most luxurious Range Rover ever produced, SVAutobiography.
“From Europe to Australia, this trip is all about the epitome of luxury but done so in a Land Rover way – the unexpected, the off- the-beaten-track and the once-in-a-lifetime experiences. This itinerary represents the definitive drive adventure, achieved in the definitive vehicle,” explained Mark Cameron, Land Rover Experiential Marketing Director, at Jaguar Land Rover.
Starting in Europe, guests take in the twisting mountain roads of Monaco, the coastal highway to Portofino and the breathtaking vistas of the Italian lakes, all from the leather-lined luxury of their personal SVAutobiography.
The second leg of the trip sees guests fly to Marrakech. Drives in the region take in the arid desert around Ouarzazate, the
perfect territory for guests to develop their off road skills in the SVAutobiography, and a route up into the Atlas Mountains
ending with a lunch at Richard Branson’s exquisite hotel, Kasbah Tamadot.
The unique climate of the Arizona desert is the destination for the third part of the trip, as guests fly in to experience the one-of-a-kind Amangiri resort in Utah.
The fourth leg sees guests take an overnight flight to Chile to experience the Atacama Desert – the driest non-polar desert in the world. The driving excursions in the area are some of the most epic on earth and include a day drive to the Alamo Observatory, a £1bn telescope that can see the ‘beginning of time.’
An overnight flight to Sydney marks the final part of the trip. A night’s stay at the Park Hyatt gives guests the opportunity to relax after they have experienced both a VIP bridge climb and behind-the-scenes access to the landmark Opera House. A short hop to Tasmania the following day provides the opportunity for a stunning drive through the vast, rugged wilderness, taking in coastal heathland and forest, giving drivers the chance to put the SVAutobiography through its paces.
Starting at £100,000 per person based on two travellers, this matchless road trip is fully customisable according to guests’
preferences and is being offered through Abercrombie & Kent’s bespoke boutiques located in Harrods London; City of London; Abu Dhabi and Monaco.
