Unique Gifts: Giving a Luxury Experience

Are you looking to check an item off your bucket list?  Or perhaps you are looking for a way to create lasting memories for a cherished loved one?  Luxury gift experiences are the perfect way to create stories that will be told for years, as well as to show someone how much you care.  We have compiled five unique luxury experiences that would make unique, unforgettable gifts.

Travel from London to one of the most romantic destinations in the world, Venice, Italy, via the world famous art deco train.  The voyage begins in London on the Belmond British Pullman.  Then ,after a Bellini brunch, enjoy a luxury transfer to Calais where the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express awaits.  Delight in a meal of four refined courses prepared by expert chef Christian Bodiguel before retiring to your opulent cabin to rest.  Awake to breathtaking mountain views, bedside breakfast service, and later a three course lunch before your arrival in Venice.

Flight in a WWII Spitfire

History buffs and avionic aficionados will be delighted with the gift of a flight in a classic Spitfire airplane.  This experience, offered by Virgin Airlines, lets one relive one of the high points of the Battle of Britain.  During the darkest days of battle, the effectiveness of the Supermarine Spitfire epitomized Britain’s fighting spirit. Participants in this exclusive experience will be greeted by their pilot and then given a briefing on the history of the aircraft.  This Spitfire was operated by the RAF before being converted to the two seater that it is today, and only a handful exist.  Don a flight suit and parachute before flying back in time, metaphorically.  Enjoy 20 minutes of amazing flight time as a passenger on one of the most iconic British aircraft of all time.

Supercar Driving Experience

Do you know someone who dreams of tearing up the track?  Are they also an adrenaline junkie?  Driving a supercar on a real race track is a once in a lifetime experience for most of us.  Make your gift recipient’s fantasies become reality with a supercar driving experience.  Choose your favorite exotic car from a hand picked line up that includes the Ferrari 488 GTB, Lamborghini Huracan LP610-4, Ferrari 458 Italia, Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4, or Porsche 911 GT3.  Experience these high powered cars the way they were meant to be driven:  on a real racetrack.  Instruction, helmet rental, and a promise of no speed limits are all included with this package.

Do you know someone who loves only the finest Italian cuisine and loves to cook?  Give them the experience of a one on one private cooking lesson with celebrity television chef Scott Conant.  The lesson for two will take place in Scott’s private SC Culinary Suite.  The suite serves as his corporate headquarters, test kitchen, and also production studio.  The modern space is the perfect backdrop for two to learn how to prepare authentic Italian dishes chosen from Scott’s top selling book, The Scarpetta Cookbook.  Scott is well known for his multiple appearance on the Food Network, frequently as a judge on the hit show “Chopped”.  His restaurants have been listed in Esquire’s “Best New Restaurants in America” feature.  Learn to make four dishes of your choosing:  an appetizer, a pasta, an entree, and a dessert, all while enjoying wine and sparkling beverages.
