Each journey accommodates only a small number of guests, while — in addition to special shared group experiences — all touring is private and includes a private car, driver and guide for each couple or solo traveler.
So, while the expeditions involve a fun social group atmosphere, they retain the benefits of private travel. With this hybrid model, we describe the Aman Jet Expeditions as being designed for people who do not usually do group travel.

This is one of the best things we've ever done in our lives. We're both workaholics, so we never got to travel that much. And when we did travel, it was such a big deal getting things arranged and whatever. This is like a fairy godmother came down and said, okay, I'm going to take care of every detail and I'm going to do it not just first class, but way above first class.
Indonesia, Thailand, Maldives, Turkey, Greece
The highlight of the trip was not needing to plan anything. It feels so freeing to just be able to get on a flight, not have to do any work for the trip, and have a far beyond amazing experience that's not so touristy and more localized. Another thing I loved was that we had a driver and a tour guide everywhere we go.
Japan, Philippines, Indonesia, Turkey, Morocco
The one thing that sets it apart is having the private driver and guide. And the reason why it's so special is we're not shoved on a bus to all do one thing. You're able to get off and do your thing and it makes it more of a personalized feeling.
