World Adventures
From the 17th to the early 19th century, long before the days of mass tourism, young European aristocrats embarked on what was then known as The Grand Tour, a coming-of-age educational journey of world discovery. Inspired by this remarkable rite of passage, we created the “Lions, Tigers, and Tradewinds” itinerary, a life-changing, mind-broadening experience, albeit in the utmost of comfort, safety, and style.
Travel on a privately chartered, custom-configured Boeing 757 aircraft through India, Africa, and the Middle East. We planned the most efficient routing possible to ensure the flights average four hours and avoid connections, baggage claims, and long airport lines. Your dedicated flight crew will see to every detail aloft with gourmet meals and wine, and upon arrival, your bags will be whisked away delivered directly to your five-star hotel room.
This Grand Tour encompasses a wide range of distinct cultures and experiences—lions and tigers, maharajas and Maasai, and tropical island escapes that you won’t experience on any other tour.
Highlights
- Travel by private jet to nine carefully selected and wildly different destinations
- Touch down in five countries and two continents in 21 days
- Retrace the path of ancient trade routes and search for treasures in some of the world’s oldest markets

Itinerary at a Glance
World Adventures
Athens, Greece
Welcome to Athens, the capital of Greece, and to the first day of your grand adventure. Athens offers a convenient yet fascinating stopping point to recover from international flights before heading to northern Africa. Meet your fellow travelers and your expedition host and personalize your two-day stay with a choice of experiences: the Acropolis and National Archeological Museum; Cape Sounio and the Temple of Poseidon; the picturesque island of Hydra; or relaxing and unwinding at the beautiful resort.
Cairo, Egypt
Embark on a journey through time as you wander Historic Cairo, join the bustle at Khan Al Khalili bazaar, and discover ancient artifacts at the Egyptian Museum, including treasures of the boy king Tutankhamun. Next, venture to the Giza Plateau – site of the Great Pyramids of Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure. We are met by renowned archeologist Dr. Zahi Hawass for a special access tour of the paws of the Great Sphinx. At the architectural site of Saqqara, enjoy private access to Wahtye’s Tomb, uncovered in 2018 and richly adorned with hieroglyphics and reliefs from 2,450 BC.
Masai Mara National Reserve, Kenya
Arrive in the great plains of the Masai Mara in time for sunset, and enjoy a cultural talk and cocktails hosted by a Maasai guide. The Masai Mara lies on the Tanzanian border in the southwestern part of Kenya, and it is home to the Maasai. The star attraction is the annual migration of 1.5 million wildebeests and zebras which surge up from the Serengeti Plains in their annual search for the seasonal grasses that sustain them. Their magnificent figures stand in striking contrast to the vast span of land under a brilliantly blue sky and offer iconic images of African safaris.
For two days, relax into a schedule of morning and afternoon game drives in an area unrivaled for its constant wildlife. For those who want to stretch their legs, optional bush walks, and balloon safaris offer a uniquely insightful, close look at this complex ecosystem.
