The Luxury Group by Marriott International has partnered once again with Sotheby’s to launch an extraordinary offering: two exclusive travel experiences to Geneva and Paris. As part of their “Iconic Pieces. Extraordinary Experiences” series, these once-in-a-lifetime trips will be auctioned during Sotheby’s prestigious Luxury Sales this December in New York.
Building on the success of their inaugural collaboration earlier this year, Marriott and Sotheby’s are crafting bespoke experiences that blend travel, art, and luxury. These exclusive packages invite bidders to explore two of Europe’s most iconic destinations, which pair amazing hospitality with Sotheby’s curated luxury collectibles.
“This collaboration represents a unique fusion of Sotheby’s expertise in curating exceptional luxury collectibles and the Luxury Group’s unparalleled approach to hospitality,” said Eléonore Dethier, Sotheby’s Global Head of Partnerships. “We are delighted to present these experiences during The Luxury Sales in New York, celebrating the pinnacle of hospitality, craftsmanship, and savoir-faire, while creating unforgettable moments for our clients that transcend traditional luxury.”
