Let’s travel together.
Hey! I’m Amanda, a travel creator and adventure-lover who’s passionate about helping people see the world.
I know how intimidating it can be to plan a big trip on your own, especially to destinations that require a bitttt more effort and research (think: Antarctica, African safari, Galapagos, Egypt…). But these destinations are some of the most incredible things I’ve ever done.
So, I started hosting group trips: to make travel more accessible and less stressful – not to mention they’re a whole lot of fun.
My trips are focused on community, nature, and adventure. We explore the nuances of local cultures, have experiences with communities that are so hard to have when you’re solo (like dinners in family homes), and marvel at some of the most pristine nature on our planet. And the best part? You don’t have to plan a single thing besides booking your flight!
Whether it’s spotting wildlife in the Amazon, sailing through the Galápagos, or wandering colorful markets in Egypt, these experiences are designed for curious, kind people who just want to see the world authentically.

“Nothing short of a dream come true”
My trip to Antarctica was nothing short of a dream come true. I’ll admit I was nervous that booking a group trip with 2 influencers would mean constant content creation that might be annoying but I was so wrong. Amanda Brown and Amanda Meeks are both amazing humans and were great trip hosts! They really brought the group together, were there for us if we needed anything, and facilitated us all having an amazing time.

“I was nervous to join a group trip…”
I was a little nervous to join the group trip because I didn’t know anyone other than my husband, and hadn’t met either Amanda in person. But right from the start, we were immediately welcomed and made to feel part of the family and that never changed.The trip was amazing – the itinerary, the guides, the activities, the food, the list goes on and on. I doubt I ever would have attempted to organize an itinerary like this on my own, and as someone who always plans our trips, it was really nice to sit back and have someone else take the wheel.

“We felt safe and taken care of the entire time”
What a wonderful way to experience Egypt! Our host, Amanda, was awesome and laid out all of the details beforehand so we were completely prepared for what was to come. Our guide, Mizoo, was incredible and made the trip what it was. Without his guidance, we definitely would not have felt as secure and safe as we did.

“I was genuinely blown away with how great a host Amanda was…”
Egypt is a wild and exciting place – but traveling with Amanda there slowed it all down to be a breeze! Amanda was a fantastic group trip host. As someone that usually avoids group trips, I was genuinely blown away with how great a host Amanda was. She was on top of every single detail of the trip for everyone, making sure that all of us were comfortable and had a great time. Traveling with her was an absolute pleasure, something I’ll 100% do again, and an experience anyone from any walk of life would enjoy.

“It felt like a holiday…all I needed to do was show up…”
It really felt like a holiday even with the busy schedule as I could completely trust her to take care of things and all I needed to do was participate and show up on time.

“Adventure of a lifetime!”
Our trip to Africa was truly the adventure of a lifetime, and it was all thanks to Amanda Monique Brown. From the moment we arrived, she planned unexpected events and took care of every detail, ensuring that we were prepared for each day’s excursions. Amanda’s passion for traveling and for Africa specifically made the experience even more memorable. We couldn’t have asked for a better trip host.

“They truly created a community instead of cliques.”
I am blown away by both Amanda’s ability to connect with every single person in the group. Sometimes a destination can be amazing but the people you are with can make or break the experience. The Amandas make sure no one ever felt left out. They truly created a community instead of cliques. This is what makes the trip extra special on top of an already incredible itinerary.

“Everything was handled for us”
Every step along the way was made simple. Requirements and suggestions alike were made known and available. Both Amanda’s answered any pre-trip questions not only from myself but many others on the tour. Connecting the entire group ahead of time allowed for many solo travelers to connect before the entire group came together. There was a great sense of organization and opportunity to join the group along the way OR have personal freedom within the itinerary to come and go as desired.

Purchasing international flights will be your responsibility- including any additional overnight(s) if required due to international flight timings. I am happy to help answer any questions on finding flights!
