How to travel like royalty

Cape Town - As we know, the royal family, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are trotting the globe in what has been dubbed “the royal trip”. Prince Charles and Catherine (Kate) are currently on their three-week tour of Australia and New Zealand with Prince George.

According to iAfrica, our royal dreams may just come true as a lovely London-based travel company called VeryFirstTo.com has created a luxury travel package set to loosely follow the royal itinerary.

What the package includes

Expect to travel in the ultimate style as travellers will be shuttled in chauffeured limousines, private yachts, helicopter rides as well as flying to lunch on a seaplane. On top of that luxurious lifestyle, this package also includes a Tiffany’s sterling silver baby cup (which is a pretty big deal), Prada baby bag, and a white gold, diamond-encrusted pacifier for couples who will be travelling with a baby.

The Itinerary

The official itinerary has seen the royal couple travel to amazing places like these.. Sydney



Blue Mountains




Hamilton Island



Freycinet Park


Coober Pedy

Here’s the complete list of destinations included in the package:
•    Sydney, on the Royal Itinerary
•    Blue Mountains, also on the Royal Itinerary
•    Hamilton Island
•    Cape Tribulation/The Daintree Rainforest
•    Lizard Island and the Great Barrier Reef
•    Kakadu National Park and Arnhem Land
•    The Bungle Bungle Range in Purnululu National Park
•    Uluru (Ayers Rock) Kata Tjuta (The Olgas), on the Royal Itinerary
•    Coober Pedy and Barossa Valley
•    Adelaide (also on the Royal Itinerary) and Kangaroo Island
•    Melbourne and the Great Ocean Road

Now, you might wonder how much this would cost?

£341 000, which is around R6m.
