Your Trip, Your Way

If you prefer to travel with just those close to you— your spouse or your extended family, a favorite travel partner, or a group of close friends—we invite you to discover a place you’ve always dreamed about on a trip designed just for you and the traveling companions you choose.

You’ll be paired with a country specialist with firsthand knowledge of the region you’d like to visit. Simply share your travel aspirations and we’ll curate a day-by-day itinerary that matches your interests, your pace, and your budget. We’ll hand select every route, hotel, and guide; choose accommodations based on your style; and arrange activities and excursions that will be meaningful to you. A few sample itineraries are listed at right, but you can customize any of these to truly reflect your interests.

Our Smithsonian Tailor-Made trip was exceptional, our country specialist superb, and the memories and experiences will forever be with us.
