Discover the sublime, almost alien, landscape of Monument Valley, Zion National Park, and the Grand Canyon on one of the most picturesque drives in the US. Amangiri’s Driving Journey plunges travellers into the heart of Utah’s extraordinary topography, taking in iconic rock formations such as Mexican Hat and Elephant Butte, incorporating breathtaking picnic spots, the wild waters of the Colorado River, and even a ghost town of the Old West. For those thirsting for still more adventures an off-road alternative takes guests down dirt tracks into the depths of canyon country, offering access to otherwise inaccessible landmarks and sites of mind-bending beauty.

A very different landscape can be explored from Amangani in Jackson Hole, gateway to vast National Parks including Yellowstone and Grand Teton. From Old Faithful and the Teton Pass to the Palisades Reservoir and Granite Hot Springs this itinerary takes drivers high and low to some of Wyoming’s most picturesque sights and memorable settings – and offers an unrivalled opportunity to spy a phenomenal range of wildlife, including majestic herds of moose and elk as they move between mountain and plain.  

Between the serene secret gardens of Aman Kyoto and the hot-spring forest sanctuary of Amanemu, lie some of the most spellbinding landscapes in all of Japan. This itinerary takes guests through the heart of it, on an unforgettable journey packed with enriching cultural and spiritual experiences. South from Kyoto, the Nara Okuyama Driveway is a spellbinding route through the Kasugayama Primeval Forest, to Todaiji Temple, recognised by Unesco as home to one of the world’s biggest wooden buildings. To the north, Lake Biwa is the largest freshwater body in Japan, rewarding visitors with astonishing birdlife, idyllic beaches, and the historic Edo-period castle of Hikone.

A third day’s driving brings drivers through sacred forests of Ise-Shima to the Grand Isle Shrine, the most important sacred site in Japan’s Shinto religion, and along the celebrated Pearl Road over the mountains, and the shimmering waters of Ago Bay beyond. From Amanemu, the whole of Mie Prefecture is ripe for exploration, including the pristine, wildlife-rich Miya River and the renowned Suzuka motor-racing circuit.  

Blending art, culture and outdoor adventure with a week-long journey from the golden sands of Caribbean shores to the red rocks of the Utah desert. Including stays at Amanera, Amanyara, Amangiri and Amangani, this expedition allows guests to surf and swim warm Caribbean waters and ski the snow-packed slopes of Jackson Hole all in the same week.
