Luxury Gold has launched its 2018 Worldwide Luxury Escorted Journeys brochure featuring nine new journeys and six new destinations: Japan, Costa Rica, South Africa, Montenegro, Croatia and Scandinavia. 

Luxury Gold has also launched a series of Chairman’s Collection departures in 2018, curated by Stanley Tollman, chairman of parent company The Travel Corporation.

Experiences have been added to select departures across a collection of European itineraries, including lunch with an Italian Count at his Tuscan Villa; a drinks reception at Artstetten Castle with Princess Anita von Hohenberg, a direct descendant of Archduke Franz Ferdinand; and dinner with a French Count at Paris’ oldest café.

To celebrate the launch, agents who make a Luxury Gold 2018 Worldwide booking between 2 November and 15 December 2017 will automatically be entered into a draw to win a Gold finish iPhone 8. The winner will be announced on 16 December 2017.

Paul Melinis, director of sales for Luxury Gold said: “We’re thrilled to introduce six exciting new destinations as part of the Luxury Gold programme in 2018. Guests can now explore the ancient heritage of Japan, the natural beauty of Scandinavia, Montenegro and Croatia, and the wildlife wonders of Costa Rica and South Africa, all whilst enjoying VIP experiences, epicurean dining and luxurious accommodations.”

It has added British Royale, French Vogue, French Impressions, Inspiring New Zealand and Indulgence in Costa Rica (new destination and itinerary, previously launched via standalone USA, Canada & South America brochure) to the 2018 Worldwide programme, as well as the four itineraries in new destinations.
