Wanderful Travel Awaits

“The world is incomprehensibly beautiful - an endless prospect of magic & wonder.” — Ansel Adams

When you chose to work with Wanderful Travel Awaits, you are partnering with a small business that appreciates your interests, your budget, your travel goals and travel style. As founder of WTA, I personally work with every client to design the perfect vacation.

Working with Wanderful Travel Awaits

Time-Saving Strategies

Make the most of your time on vacation by following an interactive, real-time itinerary built into an app you can download, a pdf you can print, or a website. Also, not to mention the time and stress you save not having to PLAN the vacation yourself!

Stress-free Planning Services

I work with you, your budget, and your interests to build custom vacations based exactly on what you want to do. I’ve built itineraries for world-wide explorations whether it was a self-guided couple’s trip to Finland and Norway, a surprise birthday getaway to Italy including stops in Venice, Florence, Sorrento and Rome, a family summer vacation to Glacier National Park or a weekend to the Smoky Mountains!

Travel Consultation

You don’t have to know exactly where you want to go! I enjoy talking travel, so if I need to throw ideas your way, I can do that. I just need to know a little about your interests and budget!

Deep Connections

I’m not a large business with multiple employees. I have a passion for travel and I enjoy sharing that passion with others so they may also have unforgettable travel experiences. I personally create every itinerary myself!

Flexible Vacation Options

Solo trips, surprise birthday getaways, romantic retreats, small group trips, family reunions, weekend warriors, bucket-list trips, last-minute getaways, corporate bookings, large group tours, destination weddings - I can do it all. I can be your personal vacation planner, travel coordinator, vacation manager. You name it, just give me a call and I will handle all of the details so you can relax and just ENJOY!

On-Trip Support

I am available during your trip for last minute changes or questions. I enjoy seeing pictures and hearing about how your trip is going as well!

I asked for an all inclusive with a certain price point and was given multiple options to choose from! I will definitely be booking my next trip with Wandeful Travel Awaits because it takes all the stress of planning/searching away. Thankyou!"

    Ms. B.C. - Cabo San Lucas, Mexico 2022

  • "Hi Kelly, thanks so much for coordinating a great trip! The float was a wonderful experience. I enjoyed the afternoon at the art museum, too. Lunch at Local Roots was divine. I did end up coming home early, just because I felt like it, and so the waterfall hikes were here closer to home. Thanks again for all your help, I'll be happy to work with you again and will continue to recommend you to my friends!"

    Ms. J.M. - Roanoke, VA 2022

  • "Everything in Nashville was great! The Bluebird cafe and the Listening room were amazing! The only thing that didn’t work for us was the Americana fest tickets. They only had a few events per day and their times didn’t work with our times doing other things. Overall a great trip, well planned out! Thanks so much!"

    Mrs. L.K. - Nashville, TN 2022

  • "I wanted to take my grandsons to Branson before they went back to school, but I hadn't been there since the 1970's and didn't know where to stay or what to do. I called Wanderful Travel to see if Kelly would be interested in helping me with less than 2 weeks notice. In less than 2 days she had hotel reservations, tickets to the Haygoods show and Silver Dollar City, and a suggested itinerary. We had a wonderful time, everything was first-rate."

    Mrs. E.R. - Branson, MO 2022

  • "I truly appreciate your pulling the whole trip together. Having the inn right by the museum was great, I was able to walk there. It was so convenient having the ticket to the exhibit pre-arranged, I was able to walk right in. Thank you!"

    Ms. J.M - Detroit, MI 2022

  • "LOVED my trips! Yes, I said trips! Kelly does such a “wanderful” job that I keep contacting her! If you have a dream trip in mind or maybe you want to get away somewhere local or beyond, but don’t know where…she can fix you up! She does the research so you don’t have to…Wanderful Travel Awaits is GOLDEN!"

    Mrs. V.N. - The Ozarks, Arkansas 2022

  • "Everything was so great from the start to end. Every detail was taken care of from beginning to end. The app was so handy with links to addresses and reservations. I couldn’t have planned a vacation of this size by myself. Eternally grateful"

Everyone of them have been fun filled and no hassle in planning because that's all taken care of and confirmed for you. You can go low key, relaxing and she'll nail it, planning around your likes and what you are looking for. If you like to goooo, she can plan a trip where you are constantly on the move! You won't regret it! Just reach out and get your trip planned!"
