South Africa just reached the World Cup knockouts for the first time ever. Jen was there two months ago. Here’s what the country is worth knowing about.
Personal service. Expert knowledge. A love of adventure
that shows in every itinerary we craft.
When you plan a trip independently, you’re making decisions based on photos, star ratings, and strangers’ reviews. Jennifer is a trained travel advisor with firsthand experience across 38 countries and 7 continents, and professional relationships with hotels, cruise lines, and tour operators that most travelers simply don’t have access to. The recommendations she makes come from real experience and professional expertise, not just what looks good on a screen.
You also get someone in your corner when plans change. A delayed connection, a property that doesn’t match its listing, an itinerary that needs rethinking mid-trip. These things happen. Having a real person who knows your trip and can advocate on your behalf is a fundamentally different kind of travel.
One conversation. No pressure. We’ll take it from there.
Jennifer Schwan spent years directing international travel and exchange programs before she ever made a booking as a travel advisor. That background shows. She specializes in the trips that take real expertise to get right: safaris, polar expeditions, and custom multi-week itineraries for families who want something built specifically for them. She’s traveled to 38 countries across 7 continents, including an HX expedition to Antarctica in January 2026.

“Jen gave us multiple flexible options and helped plan our trip under tight deadlines, within budget. She answered emails and texts at all hours with a quick turnaround and even checked on us while we were there to make sure everything was going smoothly. Truly amazing service.”
“I gave Jen a tall order: a last-minute spring break trip somewhere warm that would satisfy both me and a teenager. She came back with several great options, even while she was traveling herself in a completely different time zone. Delivered on every count. Can’t wait to work with her again.”
“Jen is an excellent planner: responsive, personalized, and genuinely great at handling last-minute changes. She brings real personal insight from her own travel experience, which made our trip easy and enjoyable from start to finish. I live a thousand miles away and will absolutely keep coming back.”
