We’re Guru Travel, your award-winning team of expert advisors here to elevate your next escape.  

We don’t just book trips. We educate our clients on their best options, guide them to possibilities they might not have known about themselves, and handhold them through the complicated processes and logistics that can make international trips stressful to tackle all on your own. And that only happens because we know travel really well!

My team and I are deeply plugged into the luxury travel landscape, constantly networking with exclusive organizations, properties, and must-know “contacts” across the globe—not to mention traveling ourselves. We do this not only to stay on top of the latest travel trends, but to also ensure our clients receive exceptional service, wherever they go.

I invite you to leave your next escape in the trusted hands of a Guru Travel specialist—so you can sit back and simply savor the journey.

That’s what makes Guru Travel different: We’re a team of travel experts who “walk the walk.”

The Guru story began long before I started my agency in 2014. Before turning to travel professionally, I was a fifth-grade teacher—education has also been SO important to me. I believe the best education you can get comes through travel, where you’re introduced to new places, cultures, and people!

My travel career also began out of an urge to educate—I started writing for travel blogs, recounting my family’s personal travel experiences so other families could travel smarter. When I began booking vacations as a travel advisor, I made it my mission to expand my expertise for my clients … and that meant traveling more! To date, I’ve been to Disney 250+ times (always staying on property), visited 100+ all-inclusive resorts, and set sail on more than 40 ocean and river cruises.
