Full-Service Guided Tours
✨ Join Us as a Travel Tester
Up to four times per year, Wanderful Journeys hosts small group scouting trips to explore new destinations and fine-tune itineraries in development. As a travel club member, you’re invited to help us shape these adventures from the ground up.
Each participant covers their own travel expenses plus a $250 planning fee, which helps support guide logistics and itinerary design. These are working trips—fun and immersive—but lighter on amenities: guides do not provide childcare or housekeeping services during scouting trips.
Come curious, come collaborative—and help us build something wanderful!
🧳 Plan a Private Group Adventure
Whether you're organizing a family reunion, a milestone birthday trip, or a getaway with your favorite travel crew, Wanderful Journeys can help bring it to life. Hire a dedicated guide to plan and manage your trip from start to finish—so you can relax and enjoy the experience.
Each participant pays:
- Their own travel expenses
- A $250 planning fee
- A portion of the guide’s travel costs (shared evenly across the group)
Don’t have a group yet? No problem! Visit the Wanderful Journeys discussion boards to connect with likeminded travelers. We’re happy to help you build a group and match you with others who share your dream destination.
Examples of Included Services on Fully Guided Wanderful Journeys Trips
Our guides are here to help your trip run smoothly, so you can focus on exploring, connecting, and relaxing. On fully guided trips, services such as these are included at no extra charge unless otherwise noted:
🚗 1. Providing and/or coordinating transportation
- When using public transportation, your guide will handle ticket purchases, schedule tracking, and ensure the group arrives at each destination on time and with confidence.
- When a rental car is required for group activities, your guide will rent, drive, and manage the vehicle on your behalf. No added driver fees—just hop in and enjoy the ride.
🧭 2. Itinerary Tracking & Scheduling
- Your guide will keep track of planned activities and coordinate group scheduling so you don’t have to stress about what’s next or how to prepare for it.
- If plans shift or unexpected issues arise, your guide will help adjust the itinerary smoothly—keeping the experience stress-free and enjoyable.
🧒 3. Childcare Support
(when feasible, not included for scouting trips)
While guides participate in key activities when needed (e.g., as drivers), they often sit out recreational outings—giving them some flexibility to provide childcare when parents need a break. Babysitting by your guide is free during scheduled activities when the guide is available. If additional childcare is required, guests pay the cost directly with no upcharge from us.
👕 4. Housekeeping
(not included for scouting trips)
- Laundry (when available) -- When accommodations include laundry equipment that is free to use, your guide will wash, dry, and fold your laundry upon request. If there’s a charge for the use of laundry equipment (e.g., at a laundromat), guests cover that cost, but your guide will still do the laundry with no added service fee. Laundry service is subject to the availability of necessary facilities.
- Dishes -- Staying somewhere with a kitchen? Your guide will wash dishes (or load the dishwasher) up to three times per day—so you can enjoy meals without cleanup.
📸 5. Trip Documentation
To help preserve and share the magic of your journey, guides will collaborate with guests to create blog entries for PowersWorldTravel.com. Whether it’s a highlight reel, thoughtful reflection, or fun group moment, your input may help inspire the next wave of travelers.
