Kensington Growing Its Resort Collection 

Kensington Tours has expanded its global Resort Collection offering with new itineraries in the Maldives, Mauritius, and the Seychelles in the Indian Ocean, as well as in the Bahamas.

Travellers now have more ways to combine some of the world’s most exquisite resort destinations with once-in-a-lifetime local experiences that are personally tailored to them. And agents have even more ways to deliver a unique getaway to their clients with the 24/7, single-point-of-contact support for which Kensington Tours is renowned for.

The Resort Collection is designed for travellers who want to relax on a pristine beach, while also seeking more from their getaway. It allows them to enjoy their escape in combination with authentic local experiences one on one with local experts and private guides – experiences which (in keeping with Kensington Tours’ expertise in creating custom private-guided travel itineraries) are always tailored to each traveler’s own unique interests.

Helen Giontsis, president of Kensington Tours, said: “We’re so thrilled to make The Resort Collection a truly global offering. With the addition of the Bahamas, the Maldives, Mauritius and the Seychelles, travellers now have even more extraordinary ways to enjoy a world-class island or beach escape in combination with the authentic local best of their destination. It’s a magical pairing that no other travel company can do. It’s what resort life should be.”

Some of the new additions to The Resort Collection include:

• The Bahamas: Caerula Mar Club Resort, The Ocean Club
• The Maldives: Velaa Private Island, Nautilus, One&Only Reethi Ra
• Mauritius: Oberoi Beach Resort, One&Only Le Saint Geran
• The Seychelles: Mahe, Anantara Maias

Combined with these resorts are personalized local experiences that are relevant to each client’s interests or passions. Working with local experts in each region across a wide range of areas – including sailing, scuba diving, fine dining, history, spirits, ecology, architecture, and many more – a fully personalized itinerary is created for each client. Examples of the kinds of local experiences that can be created, include:

• Immersing yourself in the vivid colours of vast schools of fish as you snorkel the reefs of the Baa Atoll, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, with your private guide.
• Enjoying a romantic private dinner on the beach near your villa on Fregate Private Island, then taking a long starlit stroll along the sand.
• Seeing Nassau up close through James Bond’s eyes with your private guide, while staying at the same resort as the character did in the movie Casino Royale.
• Having your private guide introduce you to talented Mauritian artists who work in media as diverse as ceramics, sugarcane leaves, bamboo and coconut.

For agents, with its expanded global offering, The Resort Collection continues to be an ideal way to ensure that their clients enjoy the exceptional resort experience they expect.

The Kensington Tours’ Destination Expert conveniently arranges all elements of the experience upfront, so the agent doesn’t have to worry about making any additional bookings. Then the brand provides a single point of contact throughout the trip, in case clients want to change their itinerary. And if any issues arise, agents can rest assured that Kensington Tours’ exceptional 24/7 support will take care of them.

Kensington Tours’ aim is always for their clients to feel confident and safe on their journey. As travel resumes, they have implemented a new set of Safe Travel standards – specific and stringent precautions that ensure a positive travel experience for their clients, and a safe working environment for local teams and hotel partners.

Agents can also earn up to $400 in prepaid VISA gift cards on each of their first five Resort Collection bookings (paid out after initial deposit), made before Feb. 28, 2021 with travel scheduled through to the end of 2021. Some restrictions apply.

When bookings are made before Feb. 28, 2021, your clients have the flexibility of knowing that, for any reason, they may postpone their trip or cancel it for a 100% future travel credit. Your travel investment is always fully protected, including airfare. No strings attached.
