Why choose Eyes of Wonder Journeys?
Eyes of Wonder Journeys are planned around the idea that when we were children, we looked at things with fascination, inquisitiveness, and joy. Whether it was watching an ant carrying a leaf, getting sprayed with a splash of water, or making a spontaneous friend, we typically embraced it wholeheartedly as part of the abundance life had to offer. With the aim of recapturing that spirit, all Eyes of Wonder Journeys include these important elements: time to appreciate nature and animals, exposure to art and music, opportunities to meet and understand people unlike ourselves, and deep dives into the historical aspects of a location. We combine iconic bucket list items with hidden gems for a well-rounded and unique experience, and we don't take ourselves too seriously. Our travel style is one of curiosity and openness, with a good dose of silly.
​
​Your guides (Laurie and Roberta) have been traveling internationally for decades, with over 60 countries visited between us. We are excited to share our love of the planet with other travelers, whether they are brand new, fully experienced, or somewhere in between. It is our desire to create unforgettable encounters that will give our travelers fresh perspectives, heaps of great memories, and a thirst for more exploration.
What can you expect?
Because of our extensive traveling, we know what makes a tour fun or not fun. We are always looking at the trip through the lens of our voyagers. For that reason, we do not run large tours where you'll be on a bus with dozens of people. We do not stop at vendor markets where you'll be a captive, pressured buyer. We do not put food in front of you that you don't want to eat. We make every effort to be sure you have time for a good night's sleep. We make accommodations for those needing physical assistance. We welcome and embrace travelers of all backgrounds and gender orientations. We strive to support vendors who are responsible about sustainability and are respectful of animals and the environment. We don't have hidden add-ons or pressure you to upgrade. We don't expect tips as your guides. We want you to focus on enjoying yourself and leave the research, planning and work to us. We listen to our customers with empathy and flexibililty. We're glad you're here!
