Creating transformative journeys for inspired explorers But here’s the good news: Travel can change that.

Hi, I’m Christy, a luxury travel advisor and founder of Soulful Journeys Travel. Through Soulful Journeys, I design travel experiences that reconnect you to your own sense of wonder. We all have a lightness within us, an inner child who yearns to explore fearlessly and love without hesitation. Too often, though, we don’t let our light shine — we get bogged down with day-to- day details, overwhelme

d by the endless to-do lists at work, or distracted by every “ping” our smart phones emit. Intentional, expertly designed travel experiences help you reconnect with the land, with your loved ones, and — above all — with yourself. Whether you're planning a group getaway with family or friends, a honeymoon that takes you way beyond those typical 'romance' spots, or even a solo adventure just to reconnect with yourself, my journeys deliver travel magic with soul-enriching discoveries around every corner. I work with amazing partners focused on global wellness and transformative travel experiences. If you are looking for a unique, immersive travel experience, or to check a destination off your bucket list, I can help.

Dreaming of Kyoto but dreading the crowds? Same. This is our answer.

Aman Kyoto occupies a hidden forest garden in the hills of northern Kyoto, assembled decades ago by a textile collector and closed to the public ever since. It's the rarest kind of real estate in this city: total privacy, minutes from the icons.

Why we book it:
• Location without the chaos. The Golden Pavilion is minutes away, yet the property feels like a private national park. No lines, no tour groups, no noise.
• A true onsen. The bathhouse is fed by natural hot springs, something almost impossible to find within Kyoto itself.
• Space, finally. Kyoto hotel rooms are famously tight. These pavilions are among the largest in the city, with forest views from every window.
• The Aman guides. Private access and after-hours temple experiences that guests can't arrange on their own.

Advisor tip: November here is astonishing. The maples turn, and the whole garden glows red and gold.

Kyoto is the trip everyone wants right now. Reach out to start planning!

Wrote off Punta Cana as all mega-resorts and swim-up bars? We did too, once. Then there’s this place.

Eden Roc Cap Cana, a Relais & Châteaux property inside the gated Cap Cana community, is built around freestanding suites, most with their own private pool, spread through tropical gardens a short ride from a swimmable, white-sand beach club.

Golfers, take note: Punta Espada, the Jack Nicklaus signature course with eight holes along the Caribbean, is minutes away and consistently ranked the best course in the region.

The practical part matters too. Punta Cana’s airport has nonstop flights from most major U.S. cities, so you can be at the pool by early afternoon.

Flown recently? Then you’ve felt it. Record passenger volumes, tighter ID requirements, and construction at major hubs have changed the math on getting to your gate. Here’s how we protect our clients from all of it:

We build realistic buffers. Tight connections that worked five years ago don’t work now, especially through the busiest international hubs.

We arrange fast-track and VIP services. Many airports offer expedited security, private escorts, and lounge access that most travelers never hear about. We book them routinely.

We watch your flights. Delays and cancellations get handled while you’re still in the air, not after you’ve landed and joined a rebooking line of 200 people.

And a reminder for U.S. travelers: REAL ID is now required for domestic flights, so check that license before your next trip.

The airport is part of the trip. We plan it like one.

Ask us where to stay in Napa, and we won’t even pause. Neither will most sommeliers and chefs, by the way. The answer is the same.

Auberge du Soleil began as a restaurant in 1981, on a Rutherford hillside covered in olive trees, and the rooms came later. The Michelin-starred restaurant remains the heart of the property, and the terrace looks straight down the valley over some of the most famous vineyards in America.

A few reasons clients return: the adults-focused calm, the hillside spa, and a location that puts you 10 minutes from more legendary tasting rooms than you could cover in a week.

Napa deserves a proper stay. Get in touch and let’s start planning!

Did you know one of Africa's greatest safaris happens almost entirely on water?

Eagle Island Lodge, a Belmond property, occupies a private island deep in the Okavango Delta, one of the most remarkable ecosystems on Earth: a desert that floods every year into a maze of channels, lagoons, and islands teeming with wildlife.

The safari itself is unlike anywhere else in Africa. Gliding through the reeds in a mokoro, the traditional dugout canoe. Boat safaris through papyrus channels. And the lodge's signature: helicopter flights over the Delta with the doors off, which clients consistently call the highlight of their entire trip.

Water, wildlife, and almost no one else around. Reach out to start planning.

Big anniversary? First trip without the kids? A honeymoon worth the 20-hour journey? Our answer is an island that's still flying under the radar: Mauritius.

Off the coast of Africa in the Indian Ocean, Mauritius has long been where Europeans go for their most special beach trips, and One&Only Le Saint Géran is one of the reasons why. The resort occupies its own private point on the island's northeast coast, with a calm lagoon on one side and the open Indian Ocean on the other. That geography means protected swimming, sailing, and paddleboarding in the lagoon.

The service is what clients remember. Butlers with every room category, a kids club that parents genuinely trust, and a level of polish that made this the property that put Mauritius on the luxury map in 1975.

Mauritius pairs beautifully with South Africa. Safari first, beach after. Get in touch to start planning!

“Wellness travel isn’t really for me.” We hear it constantly, usually right before we change someone’s mind. A few myths worth clearing up:

Myth one: it’s just spa days. Modern wellness travel includes sleep programs, longevity diagnostics, fitness retreats, and medical-grade health assessments at some of the world’s top resorts.

Myth two: you have to give things up. Plenty of programs come with exceptional food, wine with dinner, and zero judgment. Wellness and enjoyment are not opposites.

Myth three: it requires a dedicated trip. Some of our best results come as a layer: two spa days built into a safari, a sleep program at the start of a long Asia itinerary, a few days of movement and recovery after a busy city stretch.

Myth four: it’s only for wellness people. The skeptics tend to come back the most converted.

Curious what this could look like on your next trip? That’s a conversation we’d love to have.

Give us 24 hours in Paris and here’s exactly how we’d spend them:

Morning: coffee and a croissant at a neighborhood café, then the Musée d’Orsay right at opening, before the crowds fill the impressionist galleries.

Midday: lunch in Saint-Germain, then wander the Marais. Boutiques, galleries, and the prettiest squares in the city.

Golden hour: a private boat on the Seine as the light turns and the Eiffel Tower begins to sparkle.

Evening: dinner at a bistro where the menu is handwritten and the waiter argues with you about the wine. In the best way.

Twenty-four hours or a full week, we’ll make every one count. Get in touch to plan Paris.

“Is a Nile cruise actually worth it?” We get this question constantly. Our answer: on the right boat, it might be the best hotel in Egypt. And it moves.

Historia Boutique Nile River Cruise sails between Luxor and Aswan, designed around the glamour of 1920s river travel with a fully contemporary interior. Around 40 cabins, floor-to-ceiling windows facing the water, a rooftop pool deck, and a spa on board.

The real luxury is the format. You unpack once, and the temples come to you. Karnak and the Valley of the Kings, then Edfu, Kom Ombo, and Philae, each visited with expert Egyptologist guides while the boat handles every mile in between.

Advisor tip: itineraries run three, four, or seven nights, and the direction you sail changes the pacing. We’ll help you pick the right one. Let’s start planning.

Where would we send you in 2027? So glad you asked. Four places at the top of our list, and why the clock is already ticking on each:

Luxor and the Nile, Egypt. The Grand Egyptian Museum is finally open, and on August 2, 2027, a total solar eclipse crosses Egypt. Nile sailings around that date are selling out now.

Bhutan. Daily visitor fees keep the kingdom uncrowded, and its lodge circuit is world-class. Go while it still feels like a secret.

The Okavango Delta, Botswana. The camps here hold 8 to 12 tents each. Prime season availability for 2027 is already moving.

The French Riviera. Summer on this coastline books out a year ahead, and the legendary hotels fill first. Locking in now means choosing your property instead of settling.

The best trips of 2027 are being booked in 2026. Message us to plan yours.
