About this trip

We couldn't be more thrilled to invite you to our first in-person party post-pandemic! Mark your calendars for September 23rd in Sacramento as we come together for a beautiful celebration. It's a time to reunite, share laughter, and create beautiful memories with our incredible travel community. We're eager to reconnect with each and every one of you, as well as meet a few new faces! Even better, a few of our team members will be flying to join in on the celebrations and get to spend time with you!


Celebrating 7 Years of Adventure and Connection

It's time to bring our incredible community of travelers together under one roof to commemorate 7 years of incredible journeys, lifelong friendships, enriching learning experiences, and our commitment to supporting small business development in Latin America. This event is a tribute to all the remarkable memories we've created together and we wanted to throw this party to give us all the chance to just reconnect, reminisce on past trips, and get excited about all the future adventures we'll have together. We hope to see you there.

When: 5-8 PM, September 23, 2023

The Heart of Travel was born out of a deep-rooted love and passion for travel, art, history, food, nature, culture and adventure as well as a call to give back to the communities and people that had already provided us with so much. The travel industry has long been bombarded with double decker tour busses, beach front resorts and cruise ships, often at the expense of the local communities. As a response to this failing system, we began a boutique travel company that allows clients to explore new places in an authentic and non-touristy way, offering travelers a more intimate and unique experience all while removing the stress and hassle of researching, planning, bargain hunting, reserving and more that goes along with planning a trip or vacation.

This was my first experience with a travel agency and it exceeded me expectations! I was pleasantly surprised by additional service that I wasn't expecting including private rides to and from the airport for myself and all of my employees during a work visit to Mexico City. I will definitely use this service in the future!

I highly recommend booking your vacation with Heart of Travel. I just got back last week from the Caribbean Escapes: Costa Rica and Panama trip and I am still thinking about it - and wondering where to go next! From the detailed planning that went into the itinerary to our fabulous tour leader, Cris, along with all of the wonderful local guides, this was an amazing experience.

This was my second trip with Heart of Travel and I couldn't have asked for more. The trip coordinator, local guides, itinerary, lodging, and food were all fantastic. I usually plan my own trips, but HOT affords opportunities for meaningful interactions with local community members and remote sites that would be challenging to find on one's own. A+ !!!

This was an awesome extension to our Peru Inca Trail trip! We got to do homestays with two different families and experience life on the Uros floating islands! I highly recommend it for anyone traveling to Peru!

Heart of Travel is the best for magical and ethical vacations! Chelsea and her incredible team first won me over in Guatemala in 2023 as they planned a beautiful trip that allowed us to see and experience so many different places, people, and things. A helicopter ride, a volcano hike, spa day, meeting the most badass Mayan weaver!!, a once-in a lifetime sunset tour in Tikal - done. I'm still trying to get over this trip lol. They knocked it out of the park again in Cuba for NYE! Chelsea and the spectacular Paloma had us dancing multiple nights away, eating the BEST food, and seeing ALL the sights while also giving us ample opportunity to support the Cuban people and educating us on why that is so important. You will leave their trips with new memories, new friends, and possibly, some new perspectives. Do it!!!

Words can’t begin to express the way this trip impacted me! Every single person we met was so amazing, so kind, and truly opened their hearts and lives to us! Cuba, you have left an undeniable mark on my soul… Your people, your colors, your food, your history… Thank you for sharing this world with us! Cannot wait for our next trip! We love you 🥰

I just returned from a two week trip to Ecuador and the Galapagos. The trip was an incredible balance of learning, discovery, and recreation. Both the local guides and the Heart of Travel coordinator, Chiva, were excellent!!! The accommodations, food, and itinerary were fantastic. I will definitely travel with Heart of Travel again.
