Luxury can be seen as a tangible item; a handbag, a diamond necklace, or a fancy sports car perhaps. But the luxury consumer is looking for more. They are turning their attention to travel, and one-of-a-kind experiences to create lasting memories that hold far more value than any product they can buy.
Look no further than to the perfect pairing of Veuve Clicquot and the Belmond Express. A new opportunity by LVMH, hop aboard and Hiram Bingham & Andean Explorer this October 21st-26th for an unforgettable expedition to the awe-striking ancient sites and natural wonders of Peru. Enjoy 5-nights aboard the Belmond train and the top Peruvian hotels while sipping on the finest of the Clicquot collections, while dine and be served by renowned chefs.
When LVMH purchased the British luxury hotel chain, Belmond, in December of 2018, one could only imagine what the luxury conglomerate had in mind for its future. Belmond, which was formerly known as the Oriental Express up until 2014, is a make up of luxury hotels, trains, and cruise ships. Now Veuve Clicquot and LVMH’s Belmond Express are creating a travel experience like no other.
A series of three adventures aboard the Belmond train collections, started in early summer with excursions from Vienna to Reims, and Singapore to Malaysia. The final route will be a rare and exclusive look into the Incan Empire traveling from Machu Picchu to Cusco, and ending in Arequipa.
Guests can expect to explore Cusco where the Inca Empire was established, and gaze at the Inca stone walls, and colonial frescos from their room at the Palacio Nazarenas. Enjoy an awe-inspiring dinner at the 16th century former monastery while sipping on champagne near a 300 year old Andean Cedar Tree. A quick open-air observation car will whisk guests around the breath-taking La Raya Mountains ending the evening aboard the Belmond with the finest of dining.
An experience one can only dream about, with a variety of ‘solaire’ activities and champagne tastings led by the Veuve Clicquot Cellar Master, Didier Mariotti.
Money can buy many things, but living out your wildest dreams and witnessing all the world has to offer can be considered, Priceless.
