What is a tailor-made holiday?
Simply put, a tailor-made holiday is one that is crafted uniquely for you to match your interests, needs and budget.
Like a bespoke suit, it may have some similarities to more generic, off-the-peg offerings (after all, you often want to take in a destination’s highlights just as you want a suit to have sleeves) but it will be crafted perfectly for you. The right hotels, the right restaurants, the right tours, the right timings…
Our local experts are, well, experts at creating tailor-made trips. It’s why we’ve selected them and why we are happy to put you directly in touch with them. They live in your destination and therefore have the most up-to-date and relevant knowledge when it comes to exploring their country. No-one knows a country like a local.
How it works
We’re on a mission to reimagine travel by connecting you directly with travel experts in your destination. So your trip will be unique, authentic and full of local knowledge.
Broken into simple steps, the TravelLocal booking process goes as follows…
- Find your destination
- Submit your request detailing what you want from your trip
- A local expert will be in touch with an initial itinerary based on your information
- Customise your trip with your expert until you’re completely happy
- Book securely through TravelLocal then start to write your packing list…

It was magical
"Great experience with TravelLocal! We had an absolutely AMAZING trip. Everything, from start to finish, was absolutely perfect. Everything from our fantastic driver to the off-the-beaten-path guest houses run by wonderful families, we could not have asked for a better trip. It was magical."
