Luxury Gold
Luxury Gold prides itself on creating extraordinary tours with exclusive VIP experiences, fine dining in exceptional restaurants, and stays in luxury hotels and country houses, plus private home pick-up service. Guests travel in comfort and style as they explore destinations including Australia and India, accompanied by a Travelling Concierge.
About Luxury Gold
On a Luxury Gold tour, groups are small and have no more than 40 guests, with some tours limited to just 24 like-minded travellers. This guarantees exceptional personal service and companionship, plus a smoother journey with less people disembarking in every destination. A Travelling Concierge accompanies every tour and ensures that it exceeds expectations. As well as taking care of hotel check-ins and luggage, they are on hand to recommend restaurants and activities based on guests’ interests. In addition, the Travelling Concierge is there to help guests connect with the locals and hear their stories.
Guests can relax from the start with a complimentary private door-to-door transfer service between their home and the airport, available within 150 miles. At the end of the tour, guests are met at the airport and taken home in a private car.
Exclusive VIP experiences are included to enhance every tour. Guests are introduced to leading experts, gain privileged entry to iconic landmarks, and are given tickets to prestigious cultural events, many of which are impossible to access as an independent traveller. In Vienna, there is a private after-hours viewing at the magnificent Schonbrunn Palace, while in India, there is a rare opportunity to enjoy high tea in Jaipur’s opulent City Palace.
Luxury Gold handpicks boutique hotels, impressive castles and lavish country houses set in stunning surroundings. Luxury, comfort and sophistication await guests on every night of their journey. In addition, they always have time to relax in their surroundings and use the facilities as tours balance sightseeing and events with ample time at leisure. There are also some days with Relaxed Starts, meaning no setting off before 9am.
Dining is an unforgettable experience on every Luxury Gold tour and many include a lunch or dinner at a Michelin star restaurant. There are also visits to other highly-acclaimed restaurants, recognised by AAA Diamond and Forbes. On each tour, guests can enjoy Highlight Evenings, which take place in restaurants set in amazing locations or offering a special ambiance. Luxury Gold’s partnership with EatWith means there is often the opportunity to sit down to dinner with a local family in their home. The Travelling Concierge is always on hand to recommend excellent restaurants, just a short walk away.
Luxury Gold is a founding member of the TreadRight Foundation which strives to protect and conserve the environment and communities for generations to come. On some tours, guests will see projects in action, including one of the last remaining hand-weaving textiles in Perugia, Italy.
