Tours – Spirited Navigators

WHY TOUR WITH US?

We take travel seriously. It’s not a pastime for us. It is a passion!

We are passionate about discovering this beautiful world we live in and the people that share it with us. We are interested in learning, soaking in the true experience of traveling and not rushing any of it. Our tours are designed to show you the world through our eyes and in our travel style and in doing so, we hope to help you gain your own perspective.

We select our tour locations very carefully; we focus on destinations that are our absolute favorites and where we can offer you an inside look into a country that you may not otherwise be able to see.

We are not your typical tour group. We do not put you on buses and take you from point A to B and let you wander the rest of the time on your own. We specialize in small group sizes so that when you are traveling with us, it feels like traveling with friends and not strangers.

We take great stride in ensuring you are comfortable, before, after and during the trip, while pushing you to go beyond your comfort zone at times to truly immerse into the culture we are visiting.

Our tours always include elements of surprises for our guests. Our welcome kits are consistently raved about — not only do we include snacks and such to help you keep going on those long days, but include things you can use (over and over again) long after the tour is over.

We also do private tours — that means its a tour for you and your loved ones, and with us as your expert guides!

Who is the tour for?

The tour is for those who are excited to travel, and we mean TRULY excited to travel. It is for those who find the unknown aspects of traveling intriguing, enthralling and captivating. It is for the people who can go with the flow and understand that travel is glamorous only in retrospect. It is for those who really want to connect to nature and culture, for those who want to surrender to the idea of being on the go.

Who is the tour NOT for?

those who have difficulty adapting to changes
those who like to party – it is something we absolutely do not do and our tours are not geared for anyone who is into that type of travel
those who are strict on routine – the most consistent thing about travel is often the inconsistencies
those who are just looking to cross off from their check list but not truly take in their surrounding

Please note that most of our tours are not for anyone under the age of 18 (unless otherwise specificed)

Saadia and Kapil recently organized the local tours for our Greece trip to Mykonos, Santorini and Athens. Their travel knowledge and experience allowed them to pick the best of the best. The food tour in Athens and the sailing tour in Santorini were out of the world experiences. They were very prompt in making the reservations and accessible anytime of the day for questions. We were able to enjoy the trip and stay relaxed without worrying about making tour reservations. I will definitely use their services for our next trip.

Great experience working with Spirited Navigator for our extended family summer trip to Switzerland. They are very professional. Provide all the information you would need for your trip. They think of everything. They are proactive in thinking of what you would need and making arrangements accordingly. They are available any time of the day even when you are on the trip. We had an incident on our trip where the Tour bus company didn't give us the bus that we had requested for one of the legs of he trip. We contacted Kapil and Saadia, and midway on our journey, we were given the bus we had requested. Awesome service and totally worth it if you are looking for worry free vacation planning. I would recommend them any day to my family, friends and co-workers.

Thank you for helping us with our trip to Italy. One of the best things about Spirited Navigators was that they were always available to answer any questions we had prior to leaving and in Italy as well. They created a very detailed itinerary keeping in mind our needs and also gave us a list of local activities and restaurants. At the same time they were very patient and accommodating when we made changes to itinerary. I would definitely use them to plan and organize my future trips

It was a pleasure working with Spirited Navigators team in planning our Switzerland vacation. They went above and beyond and created a very detailed itinerary for our vacation. We loved all their recommendations for restaurants, places to visit and things to do in different parts of the country. Every little detail was spot on including transportation options, train schedules, hotel suggestions. We were very thrilled with the amount of knowledge they have of Switzerland, I doubt even a local resident would have been able to able to give us that much detail about this country. If you are planning a vacation to Switzerland or any other country let Kapil and Saadia plan your trip for you, chances are they have been there and they will make your trip memorable and turn your dream and vision into reality with no work except packing your bags.

Thank you Spirited Navigators for planning our Arizona trip to perfection. They provided us with extremely detailed information for an active vacation with kids at a reasonable pace (tall order). The itinerary included information such as must visit cities within Arizona, mileages/timing it would take for us to travel from one city to another, airport tips, car rental tips, restaurant recommendations and much more. In addition, list of activities with websites, phone numbers and SN tips (my favorite) to book ahead was priceless. There is no way we would be able to get this level of information by searching online. They are the experts and they know what they are doing. I will definitely rely on them for my future travels, especially for Europe.

Spirited Navigators have helped me plan many vacations! When I have a place in mind, I always ask for their input on where to stay, what to eat, and major sights to visit. When I know I need a vacation, but can't decide where, Spirited Navigators are full of destination ideas. Always willing to share their own experience in a particular city or country, or help you with research if they haven't been there themselves. Spirited Navigators have also given me great ideas on how to have a enjoyable budget friendly trip. They are always the first I consult with when planning a trip.

Spirited Navigators are ALWAYS my go to for questions on anything travel related - from what should I bring, how should I pack my stuff - to where should I eat and what are the must sees at any destination. You can truly feel the love that they have for ANYTHING travel related (even if it is what shoes you should wear). It makes picking a vacation spot much more comfortable, especially for a homebody like me. Any question isn't too big or to small for them, they are amazing on all their advice and recommendations. I would never go anywhere without talking it over with Spirited Navigators first.

I am soo glad to have met Spirited Navigators since they are definitely my number one go to people when it comes to travel. A while back I was planning a trip to the Caribbeans and I just wasn't sure where to start, so I decided to ask Spirited Navigators and I am glad I did. Not only were they able to provide me with a good deal, they also advised me on what to bring and what to expect at some of these locations. To me its always best to ask someone who has been there and who has done it, truly Spirited Navigators have the knowledge and experience of traveling. If you want a great deal! Ask Spirited Navigators!

Josh L.

Nicely done, very attentive and knowledgeable. I need to fly more often now and certainly will use them again.

I love to travel and thoroughly enjoy researching and planning before all my trips. No detail is too small for me. Even so, since 2009, there is not a single trip that I have planned without asking Spirited Navigators for advice or help in finding the best deals on flights or top must see places. Not only are they passionate about traveling themselves, they are equally enthusiastic about encouraging others to find their inner wanderlust. Spirited Navigators is extremely knowledgeable and anything that they are not 100% sure about - they go out of their way to research, reads lots of reviews, or seeks advice from other travelers in their network so that you don't have to. Spirited Navigators makes planning any trip easy and pleasurable. They are my top choice every time!

Tania N.

I became a wanderlust after my UCLA study abroad program and since has traveled to over 40 countries, 6 continents. With that said, there's no one else that I would thoroughly enjoy sharing every single one of those places with than Spirited Navigators. Their desire and passion to explore the world goes hand in hand with their skill to create amazing itineraries that will leave you with priceless memories. Their recommendations are on point from what to pack, what to see, and especially where to eat! There is no travel obstacle they can't overcome and that's why Spirited Navigators is ALWAYS my go to travel guide!

Spirited Navigators, thank you so much for helping me with my trip to Costa Rica!!!!!! Traveling to a different country requires so much research and so much time. You made it very easy for me though. Planning my wedding was consuming so much of my time. Your research and the detailed information and tips that you gave me for my trip were so helpful. You are very thorough and fast at responding. You also help me save a lot of money!!!! I really appreciate all your help. Thank you for providing me with all the transportation options available within the country. I was so scared to book that because I didn't know if the companies I had been looking out were legitimate. Your list of options was so detailed with company names, descriptions, phone numbers and prices. I took your advice for some of the activities you suggested and I had a blast. Thank you so much again! I will be contacting you again for my next trip. ?

To know Spirited Navigators is to truly understand one's love and passion for travel. They are easily the best people to go to with any travel related questions/ideas/opinions. I cannot remember the number of times I've gone to Spirited Navigators for suggestions and tips regarding anything to do with travel, whether it's logistical or even a simple "what kind of clothes to take" question. They are knowledgable, helpful and always willing to make things a little simpler for people like me who wish we could travel more. Thank you Spirited Navigators, I'm always living vicariously through you!

Spirited Navigators is the go-to place when deciding what to do when traveling abroad. I had done a study-abroad program with my school this past month in England, and was going to travel around Italy for 8 days afterwards. Since this was my first time traveling without my family, I was very nervous and stressed on planning and embarking on this journey. I came to Spirited Navigators for advice on what to do, and I received so much more than that. They gave me a full detailed itinerary that I took EVERYWHERE with me. With their help, as a first-time traveler, I was able to see 6 cities in 8 days without hesitation. From where to eat, what to see and what to do... they told me everything in detail up to the bus number and what routes to take. They will do all the research for you to make sure you are at ease on your vacation! I would definitely recommend planning your next trip with Spirited Navigators. 10/10!!!

Spirited Navigators make going on vacation a breeze. Their thorough and meticulous research when planning tours make for an enjoyable and interactive vacationing experience. They have always updated and shared with me important infomation, sent friendly reminders, offered budget-friendly options, and given me tips on travel safety. I really appreciate how understanding they are of individual needs, requirements, and interests, and they aim to please their guests. I have never felt pressured by them, and they have always been respectful of their guests. I always have difficulty finding the right travel buddy, and Spirited Navigators has introduced me to some of the most amazing people who were a joy to travel with. When you travel with Spirited Navigators, you travel with peace of mind, you travel safely, and you embark on a new adventure. Can't recommend them enough!

Where do I start about the passion that Spirited Navigators have for traveling? Or the passion with which they helps ANYONE out who reaches out about their upcoming trips. From scoring the best airfare to getting the hotels in the center of wherever your travels take you to what to see and where to to eat, they have it all covered. Don't hesitate to reach out and ask any and all questions you have regarding your upcoming trip!!!!

Spirited Navigators have been my go-to for all travel related matters. I enjoy traveling but don't like planning. Spirited Navigators have helped me with travel itineraries from beginning to end. They ask the right questions and always have fun suggestions and ideas. This past summer my husband and I only had 2-3 days in Paris. Spirited Navigators planned everything out for us in the most efficient way possible, including places to eat, how to get from place to place, free tours, even good picture spots. I carried around their itinerary the entire time and referred to it constantly. They have a true passion for traveling and is my only source for everything travel.

Abby Reyes

I wanted to surprise my wife with a trip to Italy for her birthday! Feeling completely overwhelmed and lost that I wouldn't get the best prices on flights and hotels I reached out to Spirited Navigators. They monitored flight prices and the hotel rates and got us some amazing deals! They put together a complete itinerary for our trip from soup to nuts! It made the experience that much more amazing! Needless to say we just returned from our trip to Rome. It was one of the best vacations we have ever been on! Spirited Navigators made it affordable and manageable for us to go on a bucket list vacation and we cannot thank them enough!

When I think of travel, I think of Spirited Navigators! Over the years, they have inspired me to seize any travel opportunities that come my way. I recently traveled to Ireland and Iceland and Spirited Navigators created a detailed and comprehensive itinerary for our 10-day trip, outlining not only the classic to-do's, but also the hidden gems as well. Their recommendations were so valuable and made me feel at ease, especially since I was traveling without my family for the first time. I continue to rely on Spirited Navigators' insight for even the smallest trips and in doing so, I feel 100% confident that I'm making the most out of my time. Their vast knowledge of travel, domestic and international, has no limits and I could not recommend Spirited Navigators enough!

When we were planning a family vacation to Cancun , I knew I had to contact Spirited Navigators to help me sort through the numerous options. Looking online on your own is so time consuming and so many hotels have sponsored posts and reviews it's impossible to know what is a good hotel option. They gave me a great list of options and even gave me a separate list in case the first ones were sold out. They gave me insider tips on booking my trip and very quick to respond. I wasn't exactly sure on the budget so it was great that they told me a realistic price to pay even during spring break (high season). I will definitely contact them again the next time I travel. Thank you Spirited Navigators!!
