    Geoffrey Kent was born while his British parents were on safari in Zambia. Indeed, he spent much of his childhood on the African continent. In 1962, he founded Abercrombie & Kent with his parents, Colonel John and Valerie Kent. In the 1970s, he entered into partnership with Jorie Ford Butler of Oak Brook, Illinois. They continue to travel the world in search of adventures that will surprise and thrill their guests. Under their passionate and visionary guidance â€" Geoffrey Kent serves as Chairman and CEO, Jorie Butler Kent as Vice Chairman â€" Abercrombie & Kent represents the uncompromising best at every turn in the road.

    Further distinguishing Abercrombie & Kent is the fact that the company owns luxury safari lodges in pristine wilderness areas, including Chief's Camp and Chobe Chilwero in Botswana (featured in Architectural Digest, Conde Nast Traveler and Travel + Leisure); a fleet of comfortable, well-maintained ground transport vehicles; and the Sun Boats on the Nile, considered by Opinionated Traveler as "Cadillacs of the waterways, offering cleanliness, comfort and excellent food and service." A&K also creates memorable travel experiences built around the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express and Royal Scotsman luxury trains; The Road to Mandalay river cruiser and 33 canal and river cruisers on Europe's most picturesque waterways.

    A deep-rooted concern for the natural world infuses each and every Abercrombie & Kent journey: Geoffrey Kent and Jorie Butler Kent believe passionately in adventures that both respect the natural environment and benefit indigenous peoples.

    "We are very proud that more than 10 per cent of our membership today comes from the Middle East - marking the significant growth of Travel and Tourism in this region, and its growing share in the global market.Working together, our members are focused on a unified aim - to raise awareness of the strategic importance of Travel and Tourism."
