However, we can plan your perfect itinerary with the best restaurants and luxury hotels that accept kids. No matter the size or age range of your family, AJT can personalize an experiential luxury tour to suit your family's travel needs and preferences.

When it comes to hotels and locations, we pride ourselves in our knowledge of the very best hotels and rooms categories, and how they compare to others. We encourage you to speak with one of our specialists about why we’ve chosen the hotels we use. Our close contacts at each hotel keep us well connected and informed, offering exceptional service and added-value to our clients. Because of the unique relationship we build with these hotels, you are given preferential treatment and receive special perks. Hotels are selected based on service, style, location and facilities.

Breakfast is generally included each day. Depending on the hotel or destination, we also commonly include several lunches and dinners during touring. We prefer to keep some lunches and dinners free to allow travelers to enjoy the type of cuisine they desire. We make advance restaurant reservations when requested, and we provide detailed lists of recommended restaurants in each location. The number of meals included in our private and custom tours can be tailored to reflect the needs of our guests.

We provide our clients with extensive restaurant recommendations and are happy to make advance dinner reservations. From haute cuisine to local favorites to traditional dinners in private homes, we know all the best places to have a variety of dining experiences.
