London's rich kids live every day like they're on holiday. But when they're actually on holiday, they travel, party, and relax in even more luxury.

This summer was no different, according to the “Rich Kids of London” Instagram account, where the spoiled offspring of the city's wealthy post photos of their extravagant lives and receive thousands of likes (and hate-likes) from over 150,000 followers.

They travelled to destinations like Mykonos, Koh Samui, and Tokyo, and spent their time partying on yachts, posing with wild animals, and shooting champagne guns. And of course, they captured it all on Instagram.

Here's a selection of photos from their over-the-top travels:

London's rich kids don't fly on any mainstream airlines. Private jet was their preferred mode of transport this summer.

They spent overnight flights lounging on full, lie-flat beds.

Sometimes they get to travel with celebrities. Rich kid Maya Chigirinskaya got to fly in a private jet with Roman Abramovich.

These people touched down in their helicopter in Italy to discover they packed too much stuff. Having too many designer things is a hardship.

When rich kids stay in hotels, they always get the best views — like this one from the Mandarin Oriental Tokyo.

One rich kid holidaying in Koh Samui had this stunning view from the pool at his villa.

Infinity pools were the only kind rich kids would be seen in this summer.

Their poolside snacks were superior to everyone else's.

They also spent time at the beach, where they enjoyed regular beach activities. Like surfboard yoga.

They posed casually on their yachts...

...and got competitive about the size of other people's yachts.

They hung out with celebrities there as well. Gordon Ramsay's daughter Holly went jet skiing with Brooklyn Beckham.

Her sister Megan Ramsay was there, too.

For the ultimate Instagram, this beachgoer posed with a boar in the Bahamas.

A more intrepid rich kid went swimming with sharks.

Entrepreneur Evan Luthra helped clean up the beach in Mykonos by posing with vodka and champagne bottles.

Champagne guns were also popular, and could be seen everywhere from Mykonos and Ibiza to St. Tropez and Monaco (pictured below).

After an extravagant summer, rich kids had to go back to school. At least their return looked glamorous.
