From a VIP dinner show at Parisian cabaret Moulin Rouge to a Ferrari tour and lunch in the Chianti hills, the new experiences are exclusively available to A.M.A Selections guests. A.M.A Selections, the world’s most innovative sophisticated alternative to Airbnb, has confirmed significant expansion of its Experience division, in response to increased client demand for luxury, in-destination activities.
Ferrari Tour in Chianti
Guests can enjoy the thrill of exploring the picturesque Italian countryside in the latest 488 GTB Spider Ferrari model. The tour begins at 10am where a tour director and a certified sport driver instructor demonstrate how to drive the Ferrari and manage the Formula 1 paddle gearbox. From there it’s free reign to take off towards San Gimignano through the beautiful medieval village and rolling hills. This culminates in a stop in Siena to attend an authentic Italian lunch at a local restaurant before returning to the starting point.
Dog sledding in the Alps
A dog sledding excursion is a unique adventure in the Alps. Much more than a peaceful stroll in the mountains, the mushers instantly immerse guests in the incredible world of sled dogs. Adventurers can be lulled by the sound of the sled and the dogs that accompany travellers as they journey between snowy forests, fields and sunny plateaus.
Mont Blanc flight tour
Later in the day, true adventurers can get adrenaline flowing on a Mont Blanc flight tour in a helicopter over the Alps to take in all the breath-taking flights.
With 75% of guests booking additional services during their stay, A.M.A Selections is renowned for its unrivalled European expertise, offering guest services beyond traditional luxury property rental. In 2023, the platform will be taking its long-established VIP digitalized concierge service to new heights.
A.M.A Selections’ portfolio of properties showcases the most sought-after chalets and apartments in the French Alps, a curated collection of luxury homes in romantic European cities such as Paris, Florence and Siena, and some of the most impressive villas in the South of France, sought-after Paros, Mykonos and Ibiza.
Throughout the coming year and beyond, A.M.A Selections will roll out a dynamic new portfolio of bespoke privatised experiences in all its property destinations across the continent. From a Ferrari tour followed by lunch nestled amongst the olive groves in the rolling hills of Chianti, to a multi-sensory in-villa gin distilling workshop in Ibiza, each experience has been meticulously crafted to provide an authentic immersion into the destination and its culture.
Bookable via a dedicated concierge, the user-friendly A.M.A Selections Experiences allows customers to discover beyond their villa gates and dive deeper into the local culture, art, cuisine and leisure sports. With striking visual and editorial content, guests can then choose to customise their trip with local and in-villa experiences at the click of a button.
“To us, luxury travel has always been more than conventional villa rental, providing our customers with destination expertise and local connectivity since we launched in 2014. Expanding our Experiences division felt like a natural evolution for the platform – our guests are increasingly yearning one of a kind encounters, exclusive access, and extraordinary moments. We work with authentic, trusted partners on the ground to curate bespoke activities that are not available to mainstream tourist groups, and we’re excited to be unveiling a wider offering of bespoke experiences over the coming year.” Says Mariek Anselme, Co-founder of A.M.A Selections.
