Marriott International Partners With Quintessentially On Luxury Road Trips
By : | September 3, 2020

Marriott International wants to add a dose of luxury to the classic road trip by offering one-of-a-kind adventures curated by Quintessentially, the world’s leading luxury concierge company and featuring Marriott International’s portfolio of luxury brands, including The Ritz-Carlton, St. Regis Hotels & Resorts, The Luxury Collection, EDITION and W Hotels.

Covid-19 and social distancing associated with it has changed the world of travel and some travelers are getting more comfortable behind the wheel. Even the wealthiest of travelers have decided against international journeys this year, and self-driving trips have experienced a remarkable boom as a result. As with most things, even the humble road trip can be transformed into an ultra-luxury experience if done correctly.

Travelers will now have access to several distinct itineraries and immersive experiences available across Marriott International’s robust portfolio of luxury properties in the United States and Europe. Packed with the most sumptuous accommodation offerings, gastronomic delights and cultural excursions, these thoughtfully crafted, incomparable experiences will leave you with ever-lasting memories.

“During this time we know that many of our guests are choosing to travel in different ways. They might be staying closer to home, or seeking the personal space that driving between destinations affords,” said Tina Edmundson, Global Brand and Marketing Officer and Luxury Portfolio Leader, Marriott International. “With this series of exclusive road trips, and with the expertise of Quintessentially, we are thrilled to be able to offer our guests access to unparalleled, luxury focused experiences that meet the moment.”

Whether you are traveling to Lake Tahoe, Bal Harbour or Venice, the bespoke itineraries promise an unforgettable escape marked by luxurious accommodations, flawless service, captivating landscapes and scenery, exceptional culinary offerings and outdoor adventures. Curated by Quintessentially, and available starting at $15,000 USD for two guests, each trip will include an unrivaled selection of diversified, high-end experiences that are unique to the destination. Guests can enjoy a champagne toast in a private seaplane overlooking the San Francisco sunset, mountain biking with a local professional biker in Santa Barbara, surfing lessons with a world surfing competitor in Half Moon Bay, a private tour of the exclusive Palazzo Corsini or Sistine Chapel in Rome, and more. Travelers will also enjoy the option to drive in style with access to vintage cars, such as a 1960s Ford Mustang Convertible.
