Our Process

01


Listen

We start with an onboarding call to understand your needs, priorities and budget. If you’d like to move forward, we’ll share a travel services agreement and planning fee.

Plan

We use our relationships, expertise and access to partners to design your trip. This includes hotels, vacation homes, flights, transport, excursions, cruises and insurance.

03


Evolve

We take your feedback from the initial plan and make changes as needed. We’ll pivot to new countries or other significant changes. When ready, we’ll book the arrangements and help meet payment deadines and other milestones.

04


Service

We’re here for you during the trip to help manage any changes needed or concerns that arise.

When you return, we’d love to hear about the trip, especially anything you loved or didn’t care for.
