About

Built by people,
with people

We’re travelers and storytellers first, which is why our work starts after you’ve picked the place.

Every journey starts with someone we already know. The bush pilot who knows the best glacier landing. The family-run lodge with six cabins. The guide who only takes referrals and has never had a website.

That is why the list is short. We’re a small team that can personally vouch for the experiences we recommend, because we know the people behind each one.

THE SPIRIT OF EXPEDITION
“The sight of the huge world put mad ideas into me, as if I could wander away, wander forever, see strange and beautiful things, one after the other to the world’s end.”
— C. S. Lewis · Till We Have Faces
In Their Words

What it is actually like

Excerpts. The full reviews live on the sites below, where we cannot edit them.

“The trip you designed was a much better reflection of our interests and travel preferences than what I would have been able to cobble together on my own.”

Cynthia W. · Australia

“She even monitored our flights — knew when it was looking like we were going to miss a connection and get stuck in Athens for a night and proactively alerted our Santorini hotel.”

Molly S. · Italy

“She treats your trip like it’s her vacation.”

Scott F. · Hawaii & New York

“The pace of the trip was perfect. We felt like we had things to do, but we weren’t overly-scheduled.”

Sarah & Andrew F. · Croatia

“The hotel said they were probably full but somehow our designer made it happen. We didn’t even have to change rooms.”

Joanna & Joshua R. · Boston

“She was there to support us when our connecting flight was cancelled and guided us to another airline (even though it was way past business hours at 1am).”

TC · London & Morocco
