Our Story
Wanderlust Escapes began with a simple dream: to share the joy of travel and create unforgettable experiences for everyone. Founded in 2018 by Amelia Rodriguez, a lifelong traveler with a passion for exploring new cultures and destinations, the company started as a small, home-based operation. Amelia's own extensive travels through Southeast Asia, South America, and Europe ignited her desire to help others embark on their own adventures, without the stress and hassle of planning everything themselves.
Initially, Wanderlust Escapes focused on crafting personalized itineraries for individual travelers and small groups. Amelia’s meticulous attention to detail, coupled with her insider knowledge of hidden gems and unique experiences, quickly earned the company a reputation for excellence. Word-of-mouth referrals spread, and demand for Wanderlust Escapes’ services began to grow rapidly.
As the company expanded, Amelia assembled a team of equally passionate and experienced travel professionals, each specializing in different regions of the world. This allowed Wanderlust Escapes to broaden its offerings and cater to a wider range of travel interests, from adventure tours and cultural immersion programs to luxury getaways and family vacations.
Today, Wanderlust Escapes is a leading travel agency known for its commitment to exceptional customer service, innovative travel solutions, and sustainable tourism practices. We are proud to have helped thousands of travelers discover the world, one unforgettable experience at a time.
