curated vacations for the laid back, yet sophisticated traveler

Can You Relate?

You have this incredible idea of planning an unforgettable vacation. But the thought of how you'll have time to sort through the endless results for the "best cooking class in Tuscany" or the "perfect Iceland road trip" leaves you feeling exhausted and overwhelmed.

 

Enter Belest Travel Co. ...

In Norwegian, Belest means well-read, or sophisticated, and we believe that every traveler deserves that sophisticated experience from the beginning to the end of their journey.

Curated

Itineraries

You talk and we listen. Then we set to work hand crafting an itinerary unique to your wants and needs. Your vacation will be as unique as you are. 

Immersive Experiences

Another word for Belest is cultured, and that is the type of travel we personally enjoy. Authentic. Local. Immersive. If you're working with us, you're Belest as well, and appreciate immersing yourself in the culture of the destination you're visiting. No big tour buses full of people you don't know here!

Peace of mind

Sit back and relax, knowing all you need to think about is what to pack because we've got everything else under control.

Step 1

Let's Talk Travel

Your complimentary vacation planning call lets us get to know each other. We can learn your preferences so we don't miss a thing while planning

Choose Your Itinerary

STORYTELLING

After our call, we will go to work researching and curating your itinerary. We will present you with two to three itineraries to choose from to ensure that you are getting every option you want. This will also be your time to refine any details to make this a trip for the books.

Step 3

Make Some Memories

Once your final payment is made, the fun begins! Pack your bags and enjoy. We will still be available to assist any way possible throughout your journey.

Step 4

Leave Your Feedback

After you're settled home from your trip, we ask that you connect back with us to leave your review. We value your thoughts and appreciate any feedback you can offer.

Hi! I'm Emily, your certified travel advisor, and owner of Belest Travel Co., where we are dedicated to helping busy couples and families explore all that this beautiful world has to offer. 

​

Here at Belest, we don't do long hold times, no reply emails, or leaving you on read. We guarantee that you will be our top of mind from the first phone call together to that "welcome home" text.

​

When we say "laid back, yet sophisticated" we mean that you can relax knowing your vacation, and everything you want from it, whether that's a calming wellness retreat on the coast of Costa Rica, or a private safari through the savanna in Africa, is in very capable hands. 

​

You and your companions will be immersed in the culture and beauty of your destination with a book load of memories to treasure and stories to share for years to come.

​

As an experienced and passionate traveller myself, having been to 21 countries, spanning 5 continents, I'll delicately manage all the details of your trip, while ensuring you are getting the best value, so all you need to think about is what you're going to pack. But don't worry, I'll help with that too!

​

I can't wait to work with you!
