A celebration of craftsmanship, exploration and the art of travelling well, the Sundowner Trunk has been created by Globe-Trotter for

Abercrombie & Kent’s Kitirua Plains Lodge, an A&K Sanctuary in Kenya.

Bringing together Globe-Trotter’s heritage of British craftsmanship with Abercrombie & Kent’s pioneering spirit of exploration, the trunk reimagines one of safari’s most enduring traditions: the sundowner, a moment to pause, reflect and celebrate the day’s discoveries as the African landscape transitions from day to dusk.

The Art of the Sundowner

Since Geoffrey Kent founded Abercrombie & Kent’s first safari in Kenya in 1962, the sundowner has become a defining part of the safari experience. It is a time to gather beneath the African sky, share stories and reflect on the journey so far.

The Sundowner Trunk brings this ritual to life through Globe-Trotter craftsmanship, creating a considered companion for moments of connection and discovery.

Designed to hold the essentials of the safari sundowner, the trunk features bespoke compartments for glassware, bar tools, wine, spirits, tiffin trays and accessories, combining practical function with refined detailing.

Crafted in Hertfordshire

Handcrafted in Globe-Trotter’s Hertfordshire workshop, the Sundowner Trunk reflects more than a century of specialist craftsmanship.

Constructed in oak and finished with Globe-Trotter’s signature Vulcanised Fibreboard exterior, the trunk features leather straps and corner detailing inspired by the Centenary Collection. Polished brass hardware completes the design, adding a timeless finish to its distinctive silhouette.

Inside, twenty-two leather-lined compartments and a full-width drawer are precisely fitted to organise glassware, bottles, tiffin trays and bar accessories. The interior lid is finished in ivory Vulcanised Fibreboard and features a screen-printed Globe-Trotter and

A&K Sanctuary insignia
