Even without having spent a night in one of the 82 luxury destinations, KEMPINSKI DISCOVERY members can take advantage of valuable benefits at all five-star hotels of the international hotel group.

While some of the offers were initially tailored to hotel guests as KEMPINSKI DISCOVERY members, locals can now also become members as non-hotel guests and enjoy many of the privileges, too. In addition to other individual rewards such as the so-called Local Offers, where spa treatments or room rates can be saved by 10% or more, the various Experiences are particularly popular with members of the modern bonus concept."The locally available offerings such as our creative Experiences as part of the award-winning KEMPINSKI DISCOVERY loyalty programme follow strong demand and feedback from our international guests and customers," said Amanda Elder, Chief Commercial Officer of Kempinski Group and Member of the Management Board.

"With these personalised adventures, hotel guests and locals alike can now benefit from the individual assets of each of our hotels and create memorable moments for everyone. Our diverse properties around the globe allow people to discover and experience such delightful places to celebrate life, indulge in their hometown without travelling, and perhaps even become regular guests."

By joining KEMPINSKI DISCOVERY, members also receive a percentage of between 4% and 7% on all eligible purchases, converted into DISCOVERY Dollars (D$), every time they stay overnight at a Kempinski hotel.

Each D$ is equivalent to USD 1, and can be applied immediately to visits and purchases during a stay at any Kempinski hotel, including the locally offered Experiences at all destinations. Here’s a fine collection of some of the outstanding Experiences that members of the KEMPINSKI DISCOVERY loyalty programme can treat themselves to. Arrangements can be purchased with any accepted form of payment or with DISCOVERY Dollars in conjunction with a hotel stay.

Vintage sidecar tour around the Civic District

The feeling of personal freedom on a ride in a vintage Vespa sidecar and enjoying a refreshing drink afterwards in the impressive The Capitol Kempinski Hotel Singapore is one of the most requested Experiences.

The luxurious hotel icon offers KEMPINSKI DISCOVERY members a journey down the charming Civic District with a 45-minute fun-filled ride in the exclusive vintage Vespa sidecar.

This trip is great to explore museums and parks of historical interest, including St Andrew’s Cathedral and the National Gallery, and gain insight into this precinct where modern Singapore began. After that, a refreshing pre-dinner cocktail awaits adventurers at the hotel’s The Bar at 15 Stamford.

Baby turtle release into the sea

Hundreds of female sea turtles born in the Mexican Caribbean return to this beach every year right in front of Kempinski Hotel Cancún. They visit this beautiful place to build their nests and lay eggs in the exact location where they were hatched. As part of the hotel’s commitment to nature, the Kempinski team protects some of those eggs from external influences, and after about 60 days, baby turtles come out of their nest, usually during sunrise. KEMPINSKI DISCOVERY members can be part of this fantastic Experience and help these little animals start their journey into the ocean safely.

Royal Flair with a view of the Brandenburg Gate in the private tour of Royal Suites

This is the perfect Experience for those who have always wanted to walk in the royal footsteps at the Hotel Adlon Kempinski Berlin and see where the British Queen spent the night. For KEMPINSKI DISCOVERY members, the luxurious hotel offers a private house tour with one of their Ladies in Red (Guest Relations employees) through the historic hotel, its Presidential and Royal Suites. For the "crowning" finale, the hotel‘s delicious afternoon tea including scones & clotted cream can be enjoyed in the Royal Suite following the tour to feel like royalty.

Lifetime experience - milking cows

KEMPINSKI DISCOVERY members who are particularly close to nature will appreciate being picked up at Kempinski Palace Engelberg and driven to a tiny farm within the stunning mountainous landscape of Engelberg. Once arrived, starts the unusual childhood dream Experience of milking a cow the traditional way. Additionally, a backpack with sandwiches, fruits and water will be provided by the hotel. Alternatively, guests can also choose to hike their way back, enjoying the breathtaking panorama. This emotional Experience includes watching the hosts while getting an introduction to and trying-out the traditional milking process in the utmost fun way.

Ringside Muay Thai and backstage tour for two

KEMPINSKI DISCOVERY members have the once-in-a lifetime chance to experience Thailand's exciting, world-renowned traditional martial art, Thai boxing, or Muay Thai, with a fight at Bangkok's world-famous Muay Thai venue, Rajadamnern Stadium. This top-tier exclusive Experience, arranged by Siam Kempinski Hotel Bangkok, starts with a backstage tour, during which travellers can witness the boxers' pre-match rituals and get a glimpse of their intense concentration. Guests get to enjoy a live Muay Thai ringside-seat fight and meet the champion of the evening for an unforgettable photo opportunity.
