Private trips around the world, planned with local experts. Tell us where you want to go, who is coming and how you like to travel.

Lasting Travels

A world of possibilities, planned your way.

A good trip starts with a good conversation.

Your interests, pace and travelling companions guide the plan. We combine personal service with local knowledge to build an itinerary that works for you.

Begin with what you know

Begin with what you already know.

You do not need a finished itinerary. Start with the place, the kind of trip or the details you already have.

I know the kind of trip

Choose a travel style

Choose culture, safari, family time, a trip for two, rest or business.

I know the basics

Share my trip details

Share your dates, who is coming, your interests and budget. It is fine to leave some answers open.

Choose your travel style

What do you want from the trip?

It could be a long day outdoors, a conversation over lunch or simply time together without a full schedule.

Time with local culture

Spend time with the places, people and everyday traditions that drew you there.

Wildlife and open country

Choose how much time you want with wildlife and in open country.

Time away together

Plan a family holiday, honeymoon or time away together around the way you travel.

A slower pace

Mix days out with quiet mornings and somewhere you enjoy coming back to.

Personal planning with people you can talk to.

You will speak with someone who wants to understand the trip. We work with trusted local professionals and discuss the pace, accommodation and budget with you.

Our founder began building private trips in Morocco in 2017. Lasting Travels brings that personal approach to an international travel brand based in New York.

How we began

From Morocco to a wider world.

Mohamed Boumeshoul grew up in Merzouga, Morocco. After a career in engineering and founding Morocco Top Trips, he took his personal approach to travel to New York.

Those roots still guide Lasting Travels as we connect travellers with local knowledge around the world.
