Our original business model was built on providing a level of service that exceeds the traveler’s expectations. We have continued that philosophy, and we are fanatic about it. Our unique brand of service is personal, responsive, and proactive. We believe that maintaining a team of experienced, highly qualified travel professionals is crucial to the delivery of this type of service.

Our travel advisors work with you to create a unique journey based on your style and preferences. No cookie-cutter approach here -- your itinerary is yours alone and is custom designed to complement your individual interests and budget. In addition to sightseeing highlights, we can arrange culinary experiences, artisan demonstrations, behind the scenes visits, and Vespa tours. The choice is yours.

Adventure travel involves exploring new destinations, while engaging in physical activity, interacting with nature, or immersing oneself in some type of cultural learning or exchange. Many people equate adventure travel with “extreme” or physically challenging activities, but that is not necessarily true. Adventure travel can also include more intellectually or spiritually stimulating endeavors. So, don’t worry -- you don’t have to be preparing for your next triathlon to partake!

Our niche when we opened our doors nearly three decades ago was to cater to the unique needs of corporate and business travelers. Our advisors have years of experience meeting and exceeding the demands of this task. Whether you need help planning your next executive retreat or sales incentive trip, let Avant put our experience in this area to work for you!

We are a member of Virtuoso, an invitation-only elite consortium of the top 1% of travel providers in the world. This connection, along with the personal relationships that we have developed during our 35-plus years in the industry, give us leverage and preferred status with some of the finest hotels in the world.

Cruising is a great way to experience multiple destinations in one trip, and remains one of the best travel values available. Today’s larger cruise ships provide on-board activities for all ages and interests. River Cruising has exploded in popularity, offering a more intimate experience and access to city center ports where the larger ships cannot gain access.
