Services

Three ways to travel with us.

Fixed departures if you want to share the cost and the dinner table. Custom itineraries if you want a trip built around you. Or a private trip with just your people and a guide in the lead van.

What we do

Six things we do really well.

The services below are the work we'd hire us for. Pick one, or pick a mix — every trip starts with a real conversation.

Itinerary design

From a blank page to a day-by-day plan, written by someone who has walked the route. Not a template.

From 1 weekBy itinerary

On-the-ground guiding

Local guides who actually live where you are going. Same person for the whole trip — not a rotation.

Per dayEnglish / Spanish / Japanese

Small-group departures

Fixed calendar trips, 8–10 travelers, one guide, the rooms we'd book for ourselves. Year-round.

7–14 daysMax 10 travelers

Private & family trips

Just your people and one guide in a lead van. Built around ages, mobility, food, and pace — not averages.

Custom2–16 guests

Photography & field notes

Trip photographer available on request. You come home with a real photo book, not 3,000 phone shots.

Optional add-onAll departures
