Who Is Mindful Travel?

At Mindful Travel, our focus is designing customized journeys that immerse travelers in unique experiences, connect with new people & cultures, and explore a place yet unknown. With this in mind, we’re acutely aware of the impacts travel can have on local communities — both positive and negative.

As such, we’ve made it our mission to offer tailor-made, once-in a-lifetime experiences benefiting travelers and local communities alike. Each itinerary is personalized to your specific needs & requests, and a portion of our profits go to charitable organizations on the ground.

How it works

We design travel with only you in mind. Your personal, once-in-a-lifetime trip will be unique, based on the places, timing and ways you like travel. There are no set departure dates, no rigid itineraries. You decide the where, when and why. We’ll take care of the how.

Chat with an Expert

We’ll set about gathering the particulars for your trip such as where you’d like to go, duration, travel preferences and more.

Review Proposal & Feedback

After the initial correspondence, your personal consultant will build your itinerary from scratch and present it to you, going over all details of the trip from start to finish. At this point, any questions, concerns or changes can be addressed.

Hurry Up & Wait

The trip is booked! Now’s the tough part – the anticipation before you leave! During this time, we’ll send you some prep docs so you can familiarize yourself with the places to be visited, book any required flights and answer any lingering questions.

Hit the Road

The time has come to depart on your journey abroad! As you enjoy your amazing experience, be comforted by the knowledge that you have support with us and on the ground should any unexpected transpire – minor or major.
