THE JOURNEY

We think it is about the journey.

WE CRAFT BOUTIQUE, LUXURY ACTIVE AND ADVENTURE TRAVEL

We believe in a more independent yet high-touch travel experience that is elegant, iconic, and focused on finding more moments of euphoria for you and your family. We craft boutique active and adventure travel with quality, craftsmanship, and value as our guiding principles and we measure success by our client's joy. We have phenomenal taste and a knack for finding off the beaten path gems. Whether it is an uncrowded trail, a local cultural experience that is more authentic, or a farm to table dinner in the middle of an olive orchard, we dig deeply for what is simply more unique, authentic and unforgettable. We turn key the whole experience so you don't have to lift a finger and we place every aspect of the trip into the easy to use itinerary app so that you don't have to keep track of anything. We have revolutionized the "self -guided" active travel experience and the planning that goes into it. Everything is taken care of, with zero points of friction. Boutique active and adventure travel with impeccable taste, hand-crafted by people who are deeply passionate and experienced in this exact form of travel.

WE PROVIDE A CURATED COLLECTION OF DESTINATIONS AND LODGING

There are other outfits that will take your money to book a cruise or an all-inclusive. That is not where our passions lie. Instead, we scour the earth for off the beaten path, independent lodging, spaces and places that are up and coming or still cool. We look for interesting fly fishing lodges, heli-ski outfits, farm dinners, interesting cultural events, walking routes that incorporate vineyards, hot air balloons, olive orchard picnics and everything that creates passion, joy and bliss and euphoria. We work with the best vendors and partners. We also use our Genie platform to craft a better self-guided adventure experience than any of the large outfits.

PERSONALIZED MULTI-MEDIA APP ITINERARY

All of the curated collections of tranquil and off the beaten path places on earth would mean nothing if the trip were not expertly executed. We have a team of experts that craft and execute a simple, elegant and beautiful multi-media itinerary that is avaliable from any device any time. Or as a printed pdf. It really works so well to let you know where to go, what to do and how to interpret the place you are traveling through.

PERSONALLY DESIGNED EXPERIENCES AND EXCURSIONS

We put special emphasis on providing more than just a booking or an itinerary. Anyone can do that. Our special sauce is that we interpret where our clients are traveling, what they are seeing, hearing, smelling. What the historical and cultural impacts are that have lead to the moment they are in. We feel that this is what it means to travel well.

CRAFTSMANSHIP

The standard is the goal that we set but our systems and processes are how we execute. The standard is what we shoot for and hang our hat on. At Travel-Well our standard is perfection. The Mercedes will be waiting for you outside of Customs. The hotel will have your champagne welcome. The boat will be waiting. The skis will be perfectly waxed, The setting will be ethereal. It will all be of one piece and will click one into the next like a dance. The perfect trip. Why else would one take on a craft if not having perfection as the goal? We work with 10 clients at one time. When a spot opens up, we take on another client. We do this so that we have the best chance at attaining perfection. Take this R.L. Winston Pure2 with Lamson Purist reel pictured above. Casting this feels like driving an M5 or riding a perfectly fit carbon road bike. It is that perfectly machined experience pulled through a soulful analog delivery that we strive for. That is our standard.

VALUE

We believe there is an art to travel, and when done really well, it can turn into something that creates frisson- the chill bumps that occur when we are in a euphoric state. We also believe in sharing with clients a vision and the ability to travel-well. To travel better than they ever have. We want to share this way of life with people. To do that, we feel that finding and creating value is incredibly important. Value is the feeling that you are getting a good hand shake. We create this by finding deals, utilizing our relationships, sharing a better spot down the road from the big bauble conglomerate hotel. We put special emphasis on providing more than just a booking or an itinerary. Anyone can do that. Our special sauce is that we interpret where our clients are traveling, what they are seeing, hearing, smelling. What the historical and cultural impacts are that have lead to the moment they are in. We search in earnest for authentic interactions with local people that can be mutually transformative and not transactional. We give time and space for the day to breathe because that is where magic is created and where serendipity streams in. We pepper the trip with small gifts and moments that are surprises but bring bliss. This is what we feel is value.

JOY

Travel-Well has a different perspective. The only thing that matters to us is our client's joy. We find that if we use that metric as our north star, everything else takes shape in our universe. What drives our every decision is- how will we bring joy to our client? We put this framework through the TW prism to create travel experiences that are gentle, slow, tasteful, vintage, classic, chic, boutique and active. We then come up with a combination of the very most unique and authentic locations, lodging, dining and experiences for each client. This idea of slower, more substantive travel has resonated deeply with our client base because it is what we love in travel. It is what we are passionate about. We dig deeper to find unique and off the beaten path destinations and locations then put a real emphasis on personally designing a menu of experiences that leaves our clients with blown minds-blissed out and filled with joy. A Travel-Well experience is not just a trip. It is a feeling.
