We have lived in Alaska, California, Colorado, Illinois and Washington and travel has been our passion since we first met.

We want you to have those wonderful moments in time when you get to experience other cultures and see amazing places. We wanted to do something that we are very passionate about so we hope you will enjoy our Local Travel Adventures.

Our Company Philosophy:
Our company philosophy is for you to “Experience travel like a local.” What does that mean to you? It means we want you to see and experience things like we do. In our travels the best adventures were not on large informal tours or buses. It was when we experienced small personalized adventures, getting to know our guides while they got to know us, making local friends in foreign places and seeing it through the local’s point of view. Our goal is for you to have fun and enjoy every minute with us and take home wonderful moments to share.
