7 Benefits of Stress-Free Travel with Experi
Few things are as relaxing as unplugging from the daily grind and enjoying an experiential trip abroad. Often, however, planning for such a reprieve can be stress inducing in itself. From coordinating transportation and reserving accommodations, one report from the online statistic, market research, and business intelligence portal Statista revealed 30 percent of female respondents named packing as the biggest stressor before a vacation. Couple this with missed connecting flights and lost baggage, and it’s no surprise that the opportunity for stress-free travel is worth the cost for certain travelers.
If traveling abroad intrigues you but the thought of planning it all stirs feelings of anxiety, stress-free travel with companies like Experi can help put your mind at ease. With its helpful team of travel experts, guest services specialists, and local guides, Experi trips are unlike anything you’ve experienced before.
Engaging itineraries
One of the most challenging parts of preparing for a trip abroad is planning an itinerary. Guidebooks and online research can help point travelers in the right direction, but discovering coveted local hangouts and the best-kept secrets of a place aren’t things you can easily just Google. At Experi, our handcrafted itineraries are the result of years spent exploring the world’s best destinations in search of awe-inspiring experiences and hidden gems. What’s more, we partner with local guides, chefs, winemakers, and other experts to provide our guests with meaningful experiences they won’t find anywhere else.
Hands-on cooking classes, wine tastings, and vineyard tours are just a few of the types of experiences Experi guests can expect to enjoy when traveling with Experi.

On-the-ground assistance
When guests need assistance during their trip, they find comfort in knowing that every Experi itinerary is accompanied by an experienced travel director who is able to answer questions and provide guests with other support as needed. Having the trusted support of a travel director available throughout the duration of a trip is not only helpful, it’s a luxury travelers won’t easily find elsewhere and a key component of stress-free travel.
