Before undertaking the task of creating a special, one-of-a-kind itinerary, we recommend you look carefully at what products are already available. If you need help determining what products may be suitable for you, we can help.

In the category of a pre-planned, escorted small-group journey, we have hundreds of selections from reputable, experienced tour companies such as Explore Worldwide, Imaginative Traveller, Peregrine, Intrepid, Drifters, HF Holidays, Greenways and so on. These great companies offer a wide selection of trips on many dates throughout the year at many different comfort levels. We can help you decide which might be best for you.

We also recommend that you consider TrailFinders Private Journeys, our own excellent, comfortable journeys which we operate in South America, Asia, Africa and the Middle East. While our selection varies from year to year, we generally concentrate on the world's most interesting regions including Egypt, Jordan, Peru, Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia, South Africa, Namibia, Mali, India, Chile, Argentina, Ecuador, China and so on. If you like our itineraries but aren't able to travel at the time of our trip, we can arrange an independent personal "mirror" of our journey at a time which suits you. We'll even adjust it any way you like to match your personal preferences. We do this all the time!

If none of these products meet your needs, then we recommend the following options.

Similar to the escorted trips described above, in the category of fully-planned independent journeys, we have hundreds of private guided itineraries available in most countries of the world. These independent journeys are provided by reputable international tour operators with whom we have been associated over many years. These departures are often available on a wide selection of dates throughout the year and at many different comfort levels.

If you have an itinerary in mind that does not appear on our website, we would be pleased to customize it just for you. We will help you plan and implement an entire journey just the way you want it with as much or as little free time as you like. Together we will create a detailed itinerary and our staff will pre-arrange your transportation, accommodation and local support such as guides, private vehicles and so on. If you like, we can also arrange your international air tickets and insurance.

If you would prefer even more time on your own, we can help you plan and implement parts of your journey the way you want them and will pre-arrange just those items you need.

Perhaps you only need international air tickets or travel insurance. We'll help you with those as well.
