Dear Travelers, We are delighted to present our Private Jet World Tour for 2022. As you peruse the pages ahead, you will find an extraordinary selection of world class sights, including several UNESCO World Heritage Sites and some rarely visited locales. Begin in the city of Osaka, where you will visit the unforgettable Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine in Kyoto along with its impressive ten thousand torii gates. Fly to Hoi An where you will observe the process of making beautiful lanterns before continuing to see the pandas in Chengdu. Our next stop is in Samarkand where you will visit the Afrasiab Museum which sits on one of the largest archaeological sites in the world that was an ancient city destroyed in the early 13th century. On to St. Petersburg where you will attend a classical performance before finishing in Bourdeaux where you will venture into the French countryside for a delicious lunch and wine tasting. Flying aboard the Lakani Private Jet is key to making this program possible. Our hand-picked crew insures your comfort and enjoyment aboard with meals specially prepared by an onboard chef accompanied by fine wines. And you’ll luxuriate in suites at every carefully selected hotel, resort or lodge along the way. Making your travel dreams come true is our business and we hope to have you join us on this exquisite journey. Best traveling wishes,
