If you’ve ever booked with an online travel site, chances are you know what a headache it can be to try to deal with their customer service. We are your dedicated customer service agents and go-to concierge.

Through industry relationships, agents can often secure room upgrades, resort credits, early check-ins, and other VIP perks clients wouldn’t get booking online.
No fees!*
*Air-only bookings incur a $30/person charge (up to $90). Airfare booked as part of a package does not incur a ticketing fee.
How does it work?
1. Contact
Call, text, e-mail, or submit our Custom Trip Request form. If we need any further details from the Custom Trip Request form, we’ll reach out to you.
2. Discuss
We’ll ask qualifying questions to ensure your trip is tailored with precision to your preferences. This will include questions about your interests, accommodation expectations, and so forth.
3. Plan
We’ll begin working on your customized itinerary – it’s a collaborative process, so we’ll maintain contact with ideas, updates, and suggestions. For most trips, you can expect a turnaround time of 24-48 hours from our initial briefing (with more complicated itineraries potentially taking a bit longer).
4. Approval
We’ll send you a completed quote and travel itinerary, typically with multiple options to choose from, and you’ll approve or disapprove of the proposal. We’ll continue to whittle down the details until we’ve reached the perfect travel itinerary for you.
5. Travel
We’re here to support you every step of the way – so if you have any issues while traveling, we’re your single point of contact for support. No waiting on hold with uninterested customer service or sub-par chatbots.
6. Welcome back!
We’ll follow up to ensure everything went well during your journey – and start planning for your next adventure!
