A Discovery of People and Places

Because Life is Still an Adventure

by George Duffy

Why travel? With Us?

People who like to travel often love to travel. But have you ever really thought about why?

For me travelling is oxygen. I still remember that first wash of tropical air when the airplane hatch opened in Mazatlan many years ago. It changed me. It was more than just a door to a vacation, it was an opening to a new dimension that led me to many more trips to Mexico and well beyond.

Travel experiences improve most people's lives. That's why people love to travel. 

But travelling has gotten more complex and not just because of Covid.

There are so many things to consider, so many choices, so many rules. And it is easy to make mistakes using online booking engines (read more here) that can turn out to be difficult or expensive to correct, particularly with airlines. And if you do make a mistake, don't you wish that you could just pick up a phone and ask someone to help solve your problem?

Bottom Line

If you're shopping for travel, you should consider us.

We are different than other travel companies as we constantly evolve and adapt the personal service model to meet changes in the market. Our business today is based on selling high value, personalised and private or semi-private travel experiences. We make your travel life better.

You might think this is very expensive, but because we are a group of very experienced practitioners, our prices are usually better than much of the branded product you can buy. And you actually get service.

Air travel is an integral part of most trips but when we look at your air portion, we actually look at the whole picture. We make sure that you get the best overall travel program because often times what seems to make sense at first blush, is not the best plan. We have the tools to map out the whole program that allow you to see how to save you money, frustration, and time.

Our first consultation is absolutely free and if we proceed to quote, your first quote is free as well. If accepted, we move forward. To see more of our process view a more detailed description on our Travel Planner  page.

Wherever you are, we are only a phone call, a video call, a text, or an email away.

Today, when situations and rules change daily, it is more important than ever to have a go-to person you can easily reach.  It's easy to set up a personalised meeting online or by telephone. Click here to pick a time, or just call or email us below.
