Travel Should Feel Like You

I’ve always believed the best trips aren’t built from a checklist of places you’re supposed to see. They’re built around the people taking them.

I’m Heather, the travel advisor behind DK Adventures. Long before I started planning travel professionally, I was the person friends and family came to when they wanted help turning an idea into a trip. I loved digging into a destination—not just finding what there was to see, but learning how people live, what they eat, where they gather, and the experiences that make one place feel completely different from another.


That same curiosity is at the heart of DK Adventures today.


When we start planning your trip, I don’t expect you to arrive with an itinerary—or even a destination—figured out. I want to know what excites you. How do you like to spend your days? What have you loved about past trips? What would make you come home saying, I can’t believe we got to do that?


From there, we build.


I believe in thoughtful planning without overplanning. A memorable trip might include a food tour that introduces you to a city through the people who live there, a day spent cycling through the countryside, or a local guide who helps you see somewhere differently. But it should also leave room to wander down the street that caught your eye, linger over lunch, or change plans because someone local gave you a recommendation you can’t resist.


The itinerary gives you confidence. The space within it gives you the adventure.


Travel the Way You Travel


There isn’t one right way to experience a destination.


Some travelers want to hike, bike, ski, golf, or explore from morning until night. Others want a beautiful hotel in the right neighborhood and plenty of time to discover what’s outside the front door. And often, the people traveling together don’t want exactly the same thing.


That’s okay.


My job is to listen, ask questions, research the possibilities, and create a trip that balances those differences while still feeling like your vacation.

    How It Works

    Thoughtful travel starts with getting to know you.

    Step 1

    Let's Talk Travel

    We’ll start with a complimentary consultation to talk about your trip, how you like to travel, what you’ve loved—or haven’t loved—about past vacations, and the experiences that excite you.

    You don’t need to have everything figured out. Come with a dream. We’ll discover the itinerary together.

    Step 2

    Let's Make It Official

    If we decide DK Adventures is the right fit for your trip, a $200 nonrefundable trip design fee gets the planning process started.

    From there, I’ll dive into the research—considering destinations, accommodations, experiences, transportation and the details that will make the trip work as a whole.

    Step 3

    Your Trip Takes Shape

    I’ll create a custom proposal based on what we discovered together. We’ll review it, talk through the options and make adjustments until the itinerary feels right for you.

    Once you’re ready, we’ll move forward with reservations and bring the details together.

    Step 4

    Travel with Confidence

    Before you leave, you’ll receive the information you need to travel prepared and know what to expect along the way.

    Then it's time to enjoy it. You’ll have a thoughtfully designed itinerary to rely on—with enough room to explore, discover and enjoy the unexpected.
