I founded Guru Travel in 2011 to make the kind of exploration I crave with my loved ones more possible for other families as well. 

Meet the Founder

As a former teacher, education is huge for me, and it’s a core part of what we do at Guru Travel. My team is constantly educating themselves on the places and properties we can send our clients. Because we don’t just want to “book” your trip—we want to be your go-to source for trusted travel intel, so you can make every trip with total confidence.

Hi, I’m Kelly Ortiz

I’m a mom to three (and a new grandma!) and lifelong travel enthusiast who loves nothing more than packing my next bag, whether it’s for a trip to Disney or a journey to the Emerald Isle.
