Tailor-Made Trips Planned by Local Experts
Plan your dream adventure with an in-destination Local Expert
When you want help planning the trip of a lifetime, talk to the people who know a place best - the locals. With an intimate team of carefully selected regional experts in 20 countries around the world, we’ve picked the best local travel specialists so that you don’t have to!
Our Local Experts are travel agents and trip designers with decades of experience. They exclusively specialize in their country and have helped thousands of travelers explore them better. When you plan with one of them, you’ll work together to co-create a plan that is unique and fully customized to you.
These are not your average, cookie-cutter trips. You won’t find any pre-made trip packages, generic itineraries, or highlight hoppers here. Our goal is to help you dive deeper and our Local Experts plan adventures that get you off the beaten path and deep into the heart and soul of your destination.
Sustainable tourism that’s better for you & the planet
When you connect with one of our Local Experts, not only do you cut out the middle man (saving yourself a whole lot of that hard earned cash), but you also ensure that your tourism dollars stay directly in the local community.
Our Local Experts live and work in their destinations and they have deep connections with the hoteliers, guides, drivers, tour operators, and everyone else who make our trips happen. As locals, they know their regions in-depth and their focus is on unique, authentic, and sustainable experiences that not only get you away from the crowds, but also contribute positively to the communities in which you’ll be traveling.
When you book a trip with a Go Ask A Local expert, you can feel good about the fact that you’re getting a trip that’s better not just for you, but also for the place you’re going.
In-depth Local Expertise
We take hyperlocal to a whole new level.
When you want to plan a trip to Greece, you'll connect with Athens-based travel agent Luca Dolfino who has been planning island-hopping vacations for a decade.
If you're heading to Peru, tap into Nicholas Cino's 12 years of experience planning and designing adventures all over the Andes.
In Iceland, your trip planner will be Andrés Helguson, an Icelander based in the Reykjavik countryside who has spent almost two decades as both an agent and driver-guide.
Our Local Experts are seasoned travel professionals who have made helping visitors explore their country their life’s work.
It doesn’t get any more local than this.
