The World’s Only Luxury Tours by Private Jet

2020 Unusual Europe by Private Jet September 3 – 17, 2020

World Famous Art, Stunning Sea Views & Culinary Delights

Dear Traveling Friends, It is with great pleasure that I present to you an extraordinary private jet journey to places in Europe that you may have thought of traveling to but have not had them included in your previous travels. These are destinations that are off the beaten track of most visits to Europe, but I believe you’ll find them to be incredibly interesting with several UNESCO World Heritage Sites included. Learn why Helsinki was named World Design Capital. Discover the rich history of Baku, the largest city below sea level and nicknamed the “city of winds”. Explore the ancient sites on the beautiful island of Crete. See the benefits of traveling by private jet as you touch down in picturesque Mostar for the day and see its famous Stari Most (old bridge) and impressive Ottoman and Byzantine architecture. Step into the shoes of a Formula One driver as you experience the thrill of riding in a Ferrari on the Modena Race Track in Italy. And immerse yourself in Basque Country culture and cuisine from your base in Biarritz, France. All along the way, you’ll be luxuriously comfortable in suite accommodations in wonderfully located hotels. With the Lakani Dine by Choice program, it allows you to personalize your experience with meals in local bistros or fine dining options. Accompanied by expert Lakani Tour Managers and an attentive crew on the private jet, you’ll not have to worry about a thing except to enjoy every day. We hope to have your company on this one-of-a-kind journey around Europe. With best traveling wishes, Heidi Lakani President

Lakani’s Dine by Choice

Your Personal Concierge

One of the most thrilling aspects of travel is the opportunity to taste the local flavors of each destination. This is why Lakani includes the exclusive Dine by Choice meal program in each private jet journey. This feature gives you flexibility and a way to personalize your traveling experience. Dine where, when and with whom you choose. If you fancy a quiet evening in the comfort of your luxury hotel room, then order room service. Wander down to one of the dining options located in your hotel. But for those who want to experience the local specialties and ambience of the city, journey outside your hotel to the restaurant of your choice. And don’t forget to seek the help of your tour manager who will assist you with suggestions and reservations.

Winging your way around Europe aboard a Lakani Luxury Private Jet is the most stress-free and relaxed way to travel. Your professional tour manager will take care of all the details, leaving you to enjoy every moment of your luxury private jet journey. He will ensure that arrival and departure formalities are smooth and efficient, hotel rooms are ready when you are, and sightseeing is maximized to make the best use of your valuable time. Consider your Lakani Tour Manager your personal concierge who makes restaurant reservations for your Dine by Choice pleasure, assists you with personal shopping and is at your disposal 24/7. No request is too big, too small, or too difficult because the Lakani Tour Manager is devoted to making your travel experience special and memorable.

Luggage One-Touch For 15 days, enjoy the best Europe has to offer without any care. Our exclusive “luggage one - touch” service assures that once your luggage arrives in Helsinki, you won’t have to handle it again until after your departure from Biarritz.

EXPERIENCE THE DIFFERENCE… On our Private Jet Journeys to Europe

FEEL THE DIFFERENCE Step aboard your Private Jet and immediately feel the spacious comfort of your home in the sky, a huge departure from the perception that private jets are small and somewhat cramped. Stand up, walk about, and stretch out as often as you wish. Your wellbeing is of our utmost importance.

KNOW THE DIFFERENCE Be reassured in knowing that the beautifully decked out super midsized jet has a capacity of 40 or more passengers, but it has been totally reconfigured for just 15 travelers in luxurious leather club seats.

FLY THE DIFFERENCE Immerse yourself in a distinct air travel experience aboard a totally dedicated luxury jet for your journey. Imagine you can store your excess luggage aboard until you need it. Appreciate the distinguishable difference from other “regional” jets.

EPICUREAN DELIGHTS Travelers marvel at the innovative gourmet cuisine which are chef prepared with flavors representing the places visited along the way. With the remarkable in-flight catering, any special requests you may have, will be attended to.

Our guests tell us that traveling by Lakani Private Jet is the ultimate way to see the world. Here are the primary reasons why. Time is valuable and you want to make the most of it. Check-in and security at the airport is quick and easy while traveling on the private jet. We are usually on our jet minutes after arriving at the terminal because we often fly from private airport or terminals with faster security clearance and fewer travelers. Our Legacy 600 or Lineage 1000 private jets allow access to smaller airports close to our destinations, giving us ultimate flexibility and creativity in itinerary design, and making it possible to begin your touring, while scheduled travelers are still at the airport.
