From skiing at Chamonix in the French Alps to climbing Mayan pyramids in the Yucatan, studying abroad in Great Britain, Canada and Australia, my experiences and passion for travel enable me to craft incredible, stress-free vacations designed just for you. 

I’m Dustin Smith and my career started 25+ years ago as a professional marketing and advertising executive. My love for meaningful and rewarding travel forged a life-changing switch from the corporate 'rat race' to offering my travel planning talents to serve other adventurous souls. 

Colleagues and family always asked me to help them create some unique and creative adventures - they recognized I had a talent and passion for such things. As an entrepreneur, I now offer my travel services to you. 

This passion for travel all started at the tender age of five when I was picked up by the police for riding my tricycle down a four-lane street. My intended destination? McDonald’s. This adventure was only one mile away, but every journey starts with a single step - or the pedal of a tricycle. 

Growing up I was blessed with a family that is passionate about travel. From a nomadic childhood in the U.S. to studying abroad in Canada, Australia and Great Britain, I’ve always loved planning meaningful escapes near and far from home. With the culmination of some amazing travels, I’ve formulated my own mantra:

‘Life’s too short for bad food, wine, travel or company.’ That’s why I love helping my clients design extraordinary vacations.

Currently, I live in North County San Diego with my wife (a busy traveling executive, herself) and a menagerie of four-legged family. My goal? To offer you insider knowledge, a worldwide network of travel providers, and expert trip organization skills to help you
