Dear Travel Friends, We are pleased to present to you a preview of four distinct and discerning Private Jet Journeys for 2021. Each trip has been carefully designed to show you extraordinary sights, some of which are quite off-thebeaten-track, with Suite Accommodations in remarkable properties and in just 16 -18 days – the ideal travel time for many people. The Private Jet Aircrafts offer you luxury leather club seating for maximum comfort, hand-selected crew for the excellent service for which we are known, and innovative gourmet cuisine that is chef prepared with flavors representing the places visited along the way. By using a private jet, we can offer you exclusive itineraries with direct flights, usually only a few hours and no more than six. In addition, you’ll note that we have added stops for sightseeing between destinations. A touch down in Skopje, Macedonia to see Mother Teresa’s home and Palma de Mallorca to view the remarkable Royal Palace of La Almudaina. These are only possible on a private jet journey. There are two very different itineraries for Europe, one for Africa, including Madagascar, and one World Journey. You’ll find a variety of experiences – wildlife, cultural, architectural, and historic – and there are private encounters with artists and experts in their fields. As you review each program, please keep in mind that membership is limited to 15 to 18 participants which is unlike any other private jet trip offered by other companies. The Lakani Dine by Choice allows you to personalize your experience. Lakani’s signature Luggage One-Touch means you’ll not need to worry about your suitcases from the time you join the tour until you leave at the end of the journey. We hope that one or more of the journeys outlined within this brochure appeals to you and your sense of adventure. If that is the case, please contact your preferred travel advisor or our office as quickly as possible. With the small group size of 15 - 18 guests per departure, an optimum travel length, and the exclusivity of the accommodations, these are all features that are favored most by today’s discerning traveler and is the reason why each trip sells out quickly. So please make sure to reserve your spot early to avoid disappointment. We look forward to welcoming you on board. With best traveling wishes,
Heidi Lakani Heidi Lakani President

Experience the Lakani Difference Effortless Travel Between Destinations On A Private Jet
Sink into luxury in your leather club seat on your posh VIP Private Jet. The jet which usually seats more than 40 passengers, is custom-fitted for a maximum of 15 travelers. Your hand-picked cabin crew anticipates all your in-flight needs, while serving first class cuisine with fine wines and champagne. Experience arrivals like royalty, often at private terminals where customs and immigration formalities happen before you realize it.
Intimate Group Size For Exclusive Cultural Encounters
Lakani learned a long time ago the value of traveling in small groups (15 – 18 travelers). It makes it possible to stay in boutique hotels/ lodges and allows suites accommodations for all. Become immersed in the sights in your window seat on your small luxury vehicle. And you’ll be totally spoiled with such a small group with whom to share your guide and tour manager. You’ll enjoy private parties, exclusive cultural encounters, and behind the scenes experiences.
Luxuriate In Sumptuous Suites
Luxuriate in sumptuous suites in hotels and lodges chosen for their proximity to wildlife, historic treasures, and cultural attractions. Delight in the special features of each place, whether it is private plunge pools, spectacular sea views, gastronomic specialties, or unrivaled service. You can be sure that you will be comfortable, secure, and will have an extraordinary experience.
Enchanting Encounters Along the Way
There is something very special about conversing with a local artist or chef as you watch them work their magic in their craft. Or perhaps it is getting to visit with a local tribe and learning about their fascinating traditions. Lakani knows that these extraordinary moments are likely to be some of the most unforgettable on your vacation, so it is important to include as many opportunities as possible.

Dine By Choice – Your Way
One of the pleasures of traveling is the freedom to sample culinary specialties of each region. Sometimes you just want to sit in a charming bistro, or you may wish to experience fine dining in a local restaurant, or perhaps enjoy your meal in the comfort and privacy of your room. We designed our Dine by Choice program with all those freedoms in mind – so that you can enjoy your trip in your own way.
Dedicated “Concierge” At Your Service
Consider your Lakani Tour Manager your concierge, who will take care of your every need all along the way. From restaurant reservations to finding that special gift, your concierge is on hand to help you. With decades of experience leading private jet trips, the Lakani Tour Managers are experts at making sure that you get the most out of your vacation.
Luggage One-Touch – Hassle Free Luggage Throughout
Imagine not having to worry about your luggage from the time you join the tour until the day you say goodbye to your newfound friends. Lakani is aware of the hassle of taking care of your luggage, and you can rest assured that your belongings will be safely handled and delivered directly to your room without you having to lift a finger, leaving you to enjoy the journey.
Sustainable Travel
Let us not forget that our world is precious; the land and its inhabitants must be protected. Lakani is strongly dedicated to the principles of responsible tourism. We support those facilities that are increasingly using solar energy to provide power, using reusable materials in place of plastic, and use locally sourced foods to help sustain their communities.
