THE ART OF HOSTED TRAVEL

TRAVEL HAS NEVER BEEN
ABOUT SIMPLY REACHING
A DESTINATION.

At Kent World Travel, we believe the most meaningful journeys are those that are thoughtfully designed, seamlessly executed and shared with the right people.

OUR APPROACH

We combine destination expertise, trusted global partnerships and a deep understanding of private club culture to create travel experiences that feel effortless from beginning to end.

While golf remains an important part of our heritage, our journeys extend far beyond the fairways. From African safaris and cultural explorations to culinary discoveries and bespoke private itineraries, every experience is tailored to the interests of the travelers we serve.

About Kent World Travel

At Kent World Travel, we believe the most extraordinary journeys are about more than the places you visit. They’re about the people you meet, the experiences you share, and the memories that stay with you long after you’ve returned home.

Co-founded by Matthew and Didi Kent, Kent World Travel was born from a shared passion for exploring the world, a love of bringing people together, and a belief that travel should feel as effortless as it is extraordinary.

We are a family-owned, boutique luxury travel company specialising in thoughtfully curated, tailor-made journeys to some of the world’s most remarkable destinations. From the wild landscapes of Africa and the legendary golf courses of Scotland to the rich cultures of Asia and the hidden corners of Europe, we create experiences that go far beyond the ordinary.

What makes us different is the personal nature of everything we do.

We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all itineraries or simply ticking destinations off a list. We take the time to understand our guests, what excites them, how they like to travel, and what makes an experience truly special to them. Every journey is thoughtfully designed, combining exceptional accommodation, authentic local experiences, seamless logistics, and access to people and places that bring a destination to life.

Our expertise extends across a wide range of travel experiences. We create privately hosted journeys for members of some of the world’s most respected private clubs, alongside bespoke travel for couples, individuals, families and multigenerational groups. Whether it’s a once-in-a-lifetime family safari, a romantic escape, an adventure with friends, or an extended journey through several countries, each experience is designed entirely around the people travelling.

Our roots are deeply connected to the world of golf, and we’re proud of the relationships we’ve developed within the international golfing community. But while golf often brings our guests together, it is only one part of what we do. We believe that every traveller, whether they’re playing a world-renowned course, discovering a new culture, exploring the wilderness, or simply enjoying time with loved ones, deserves an equally extraordinary experience.

As a family-owned business, relationships are at the heart of Kent World Travel.

We personally host many of our group journeys, sharing the experience with our guests and ensuring every detail is taken care of along the way. For our private travellers, we bring that same personal attention to every stage of the journey, from the first conversation and itinerary design to the thoughtful details that make travelling seamless.

Over time, many of those who travel with us become much more than clients. They become friends, returning to explore new corners of the world together, often bringing family and friends along to share in the experience.

We work closely with a trusted network of exceptional local partners, guides, and hospitality professionals who share our values and commitment to genuine service. These relationships allow us to deliver the highest standards of luxury while preserving the authenticity, spontaneity, and human connections that make travel so rewarding.

For us, true luxury isn’t simply about where you stay or how you get there. It’s about how an experience makes you feel.

It’s the confidence of knowing every detail has been considered. The freedom to be completely present. The unexpected moments that become favourite stories. The opportunity for families to reconnect, friendships to grow, and new experiences to become lifelong memories.

We’re passionate about what we do, proud of the relationships we’ve built, and genuinely excited about every journey we have the privilege of creating.

Welcome to Kent World Travel. We look forward to exploring the world with you.

MORE THAN TRAVEL PLANNING

WE DO NOT SEE OURSELVES
AS TRAVEL AGENTS.

We are curators, connectors and hosts.

Our role is to understand what matters most to our travelers and then bring those experiences to life through thoughtful planning, trusted local expertise and meticulous attention to detail.

Whether arranging a hosted club journey through South Africa, a safari through East Africa, or a privately curated itinerary through Europe or Southeast Asia, our focus remains the same:

Creating experiences that are meaningful, effortless and unforgettable.

WHY HOSTED
TRAVEL MATTERS

The difference between a good trip and an exceptional one often comes down to the details.

Hosted travel provides reassurance, insider knowledge and a level of personal attention that allows travelers to focus entirely on enjoying the journey.

For many of our guests, traveling with experienced hosts and like-minded companions adds another dimension to the experience, creating friendships, shared memories and a deeper connection to the places they visit.

Carefully selected accommodations
Expert local guides
Curated dining experiences
Private transportation
Exclusive activities and experiences
Dedicated trip hosts
CAREFULLY SELECTED ACCOMMODATIONS

WHY HOSTED TRAVEL?

In a world where almost anything can be booked online, truly exceptional travel has become increasingly difficult to create.

The challenge isn't finding destinations.

The challenge is knowing how to experience them.

That is where hosted travel makes all the difference.

THOUGHTFULLY
CURATED FROM
START TO FINISH

Every hosted journey begins with careful planning and destination expertise.

We work closely with trusted partners, guides, accommodations and local experts to ensure every aspect of the experience reflects the standards our travelers expect.

Our goal is simple:

To make every journey feel effortless.

TRAVEL WITH
CONFIDENCE

When traveling on a hosted Kent World Travel departure, guests benefit from the support of dedicated hosts who help coordinate the journey and manage the finer details.

From arrival logistics and accommodation arrangements to dining reservations and local experiences, our hosts help ensure everything runs smoothly throughout the trip.

SMALL GROUPS.
MEANINGFUL EXPERIENCES.

Our hosted journeys are intentionally designed around smaller groups. This creates opportunities for:

More Personal Experiences

Greater Flexibility

Better Access

Meaningful Connections Between travelers

ACCESS THROUGH
RELATIONSHIPS

One of the greatest benefits of hosted travel is access.

Over time, we have developed relationships with trusted destination specialists, hospitality partners and local experts who help bring each journey to life.

These relationships allow us to create experiences that go beyond standard tourism and deliver something genuinely memorable.

HOSTED OR BESPOKE

Not every traveler wants to join a group journey.

Alongside our hosted departures, we also create privately curated itineraries for individuals, couples, families and small groups seeking a more personalised travel experience.

Whether hosted or bespoke, every journey is designed with the same level of care and attention.

Whether you’re planning a hosted club journey, a bespoke family adventure or your next great
travel experience, we’d be delighted to help.

Travel should feel effortless.
