Getting to travel like a celebrity is a treat. But, what if you could actually travel with a star? That’s what a new luxury travel brand, The Luminary Experience, is offering with its trips hosted by celebrities. Yes, the first-of-its-kind company announced several global itineraries that have stars like actress Zoe Kravitz acting as tour guides.
Created by the team behind bespoke travel company Discover 7, the trips are led by “Luminaries.” The guides are expert personalities across the culinary, wellness, athletic, political, and entertainment spaces and offer travelers an immersive experience in the world’s most sought-after destinations, like visiting Paris and Normandy with world-renowned presidential historian Doris Kearns.
“After years spent planning essentially the same travel itineraries over and over again for travelers seeking exclusive trips, I reached a point where I kept dreaming and thinking bigger,” said Cameron MacMillan, Co-Founder of The Luminary Experiences, in a statement. “I found myself constantly questioning and challenging the culturally accepted norms and limits of possibility when it came to luxury travel and decided to attempt breaking the barriers into next-level personalized travel, which ultimately led to the conception of The Luminary Experiences.”
Other trips include a visit to Milan with model and actor Jeffrey Bowyer-Chapman, Iceland with Game of Thrones star Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson, Naples and Sorrento with Eataly top chef Simone Falco, and Morocco with Tony Award-winning actor BD Wong. And, looking ahead, In 2021 actress Zoe Kravitz is going to helm a yoga-focused trip. Each itinerary will only be for small groups of 10-20 people and range from four to nine days.
“Our ultimate vision in launching The Luminary Experiences is to connect people to some of the biggest names in today’s cultural arena through shared interests while providing new and thrilling experiences that money alone cannot buy,” added Eric Grayson, Chairman, and Co-Founder.
