Hard Rock’s World Burger Tour Launches Burger Season!

Hey you Hard Rock Cafe fans out there, it is that time of year again-get ready for the World Burger Tour! Did you know that in Orlando, we are proud to have the world’s largest Hard Rock Cafe location!

iCFlorida reports that guests say bon voyage as their taste buds take flight on Hard Rock Cafe’s World Burger Tour. Hard Rock Cafe locations in North America celebrate the start of burger season with a menu showcasing international Local Legendary™ Burgers-from the English Breakfast Burger, which pays homage to a classic English breakfast, and Hard Rock’s first-ever location in London, to the Jamaican Jerk Burger, which features mango jalapeño cream cheese and jerk seasoning inspired by Montego Bay. The limited-time menu is available now through Thursday, June 30, 2016. This year, Hard Rock is also offering a World Burger Tour, a travel package that takes the most adventurous burger enthusiasts on the road (and the skies) to sample offerings from the World Burger Tour menu at Hard Rock Cafe locations in London, Athens, Buenos Aires and Seattle!

“Our World Burger Tour menu was a fan-favorite last summer, so we’ve remixed the menu and added burgers with authentic, regional flavors from Athens, Mumbai, Buenos Aires and more on this year’s tour,” said Alex Merchan, Sr. Director, Marketing & Sales Cafes Worldwide of Hard Rock International. “For the first time, we’re also offering a World Burger Tour trip so guests can pack their bags and see the sights and sounds that have inspired our burgers for the past 44 years.”

“Hard Rock wanted to offer a unique blend of spicy, sweet and savory flavors for our guests to enjoy on this year’s World Burger Tour,” said Darryl Mickler, Senior Director of Research and Development for Hard Rock International. “Whether we’re serving up coffee beans in Seattle or salsa criolla from Buenos Aires, there is something for every palate.”

For those a little more hungry, Hard Rock will bring its menu to life and offer a unique burger experience that takes guests’ taste buds on an international journey. Hard Rock, in conjunction with global experience agency RPMC, is offering a World Burger Tour travel package that includes stops at iconic cities including London, England; Athens, Greece; Buenos Aires, Argentina; and Seattle, United States.

This four-stop, once-in a lifetime excursion celebrates the cities that inspired Hard Rock’s World Burger Tour. The World Burger Tour travel package is a private, 10-night trip that includes flights, first class hotel accommodations, ground transportation and exclusive dining and music experiences at Hard Rock Cafe locations in each city not typically available to the public. As part of the trip, guests will also partake in exciting and unique sightseeing opportunities to get an up-close look at the cultures that have inspired Hard Rock for years. Throughout the trip, travelers are encouraged to enjoy — and indulge — with unlimited access to Hard Rock’s fresh, American fare-inspired menu and world-famous cocktails.

In Hard Rock’s hometown of London-where the first cafe opened its doors in 1971-guests will get a private tour of the Rock Vault, which includes Hard Rock’s most valuable memorabilia in music history, as well as the first-ever piece: Eric Clapton’s guitar. Of course, no visit across the pond would be complete without a taste of the English Breakfast Burger and a trip to the Tower of London or a sweep of the city in a Big Bus Tour.

Travelers will be treated to similar behind-the-scenes experiences at cafes in Athens, Buenos Aires and Seattle and sample Local Legendary Burgers at each. Guests will also be able to take part in meet-and-greets with chefs and unique memorabilia tours, as well as visit breathtaking, historic landmarks in Athens, tango across exciting nightlife excursions in Buenos Aires and check out the view from Seattle’s iconic Space Needle. Thanks to Hard Rock’s global presence, this adventure of a lifetime is a must-see for serious jetsetters.
