A luxury hotel in Adu Dhabi, The St. Regis, is offering a detailed over-the-top experience that includes a caviar tasting and a Bentley limousine ride. The package starts with a Bentley picking the participants up and driving them 255 meters above ground to a helicopter pad, where they will enjoy a decadent meal overlooking the view of the city.
The meal consists of three types of caviar -- Kaluga, Beluga and Almas -- which will be led by a caviar connoisseur who explains the tastes, textures and types of delicacies. Accompanying the caviar tasting is a bottle of "time-honored" bubbly from the hotel, which will be sliced open by a saber.
The "Luxury Aficionado Experience" will cost $10,890 and in return, a mother of pearl caviar spoon goes home with the participants as a gift.
