Our mission is to provide you with meticulously designed itineraries that go beyond the tourist trail, offering authentic and immersive experiences that showcase the true essence of each destination.

This was a wonderful trip and introduction to the culture of Puerto Rico. I really enjoyed and learned from the local tour guides. When our trip had to be cut a couple of days short due to weather, Richard made sure all of our flights were changed. I would definitely travel with Haitian Nomad again in the future. Great trip and customer service.

I had a wonderful travel experience with Haitian Nomad it far exceeded my expectations. The Haitian Nomad team was knowledgeable, informative and made everyone feel safe. The itinerary was well planned, and entertaining. I was blown away by the historic temples, monuments, Egyptian calligraphy and delicious foods. Both the hotel and riverboat cruise provided a cozy and inviting atmosphere, not to mention the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and gave exceptional service. I would highly recommend this Egypt trip. It was a great way to explore this area of the world!

I had a wonderful time. This was a dream trip. The sights, food, excursions, accommodations, everything! Kudos to our host Poiette and our guide Ahmed. Thank you Haitian Nomad for exceeding all my expectations. I have already recommended them.

By Dayena C for Egypt 2024: A Luxury Journey into the past on Nov 25, 2024

This recent trip with Haitian Nomad was / is definitely one for the books. The group of Ladies I traveled with were awesome, the tour guide Fallou was amazing....well let's just say...I almost became part of his family. (LOL) Thank you Haitian Nomad for the experience, the education at Goree Island, and of course more culture. Until my next adventure with Haitian Nomad next month. Peace and Love always to the Haitian Nomad Family. sincerely, J. Monique'

My favorite memory was when I celebrated my 50th birthday all year. During this year, I experienced my first trip to Haiti and Saut-d'eau. I got no picture to share. 🚫 This was a spiritual voyage for me, but I didn’t know it until I experienced it. This trip was also a highlight of my life. Thank you HNM! Congratulations on your success! Donna Marie

My trip to the Amalfi Coast with Haitian Nomad was beyond Excellent. Haitian Nomad exceeded my expectations in quality, organization, and leadership. Richard's leadership qualities and abilities are what you look for when hiring a company hosting trips all over the world with over 20+ participants at one time. The Amalfi Coast was my first trip this past June - and it won't be my last. I enjoyed everything from the beginning - all the way to the end. The accommodations and comradery was great. I have to say that I have met some amazing people that I will continue to build a relationship with. Do not hesitate..... choose a destination and give Haitian Nomad a try..... Happy Traveling.

By Nadia A on 24 Jun, 2024

Let me start off with saying I had a ball on the trip. Toi was the best ambassador she had everything planned out for us. It was a trip that was well needed and I was glad that I took the chance to go half way around the world and I had a blast. Toi gets 200 stars she was the best. I would go on another trip as long as Toi is the ambassador. Toi thank you so much for showing up and showing out the best. I had a blast.
