Wanderlist is a new interactive tool that assists us (certified travel advisors) to curate and organize your travel dreams into a life long travel plan. Wanderlist is a travel portfolio that allows you to explore destinations and experiences that match your interests and desires, prioritizing what matters most. With the analysis of your travel advisor Wanderlist results in a long term plan built to fit your life’s schedule while optimizing your travel goals and making the most of your most precious non-renewable asset – your time.
How Wanderlist Works
Curate:
Your adventure begins with an invitation to sign-on in the Wanderlist online tool where you will explore dozens of destinations around the world. We use a simple thumbs up or down for rating each destination and experience. And if you need to learn more about a destination before you rate it, simply watch the video embedded right there in the platform. Wanderlist organizes your responses producing a curated list of potential trips and a compares results across all travelers in your group.
Explore:
Wanderlist provides a vast library of information for you to explore. You will have access to hundreds of videos, books, music and articles allowing you to discover the local life, culture and history of each destination. Build your “must do wish list” of landmarks and activities in over 160 destinations. The Wanderlist is accessible via phone, tablet, and computer.
Create:
Work with a Wanderlist travel advisor to create your travel portfolio and map out all of your travel opportunities. Your Wanderlist advisor will schedule a one on one meeting to create your travel plan based upon your curated destination list. The travel portfolio will include your personal travel preferences, seasonality, schedule, upcoming lifetime milestones, and budget estimates. Once your Wanderlist advisor identifies your best times to travel your portfolio will be completed with three to five trips all enclosed in a customized presentation book.
Plan:
Now that you have your Wanderlist travel portfolio in hand you can start booking your trips. If you already have a travel advisor you can start with them or if you would like to build on the relation developed with your Wanderlist guide you can now begin designing your itinerary for each individual trip in your portfolio.
What Wanderlist users say...
“What your kids dream about might surprise you. I had all of my kids participate in Wanderlist. For my youngest daughter two top picks emerged – Disney and Thailand. My advisor asked me “Disney is pretty obvious, but why do you think she chose Thailand?” I had no idea. Then it dawned on me. We have a honeymoon picture of us with elephants hanging on our wall. I never knew this photo quietly impacted my daughter. Needless to say we will be creating new memories with HER in Thailand!”
“After all these years, I had no idea. My wife and I were intrigued by the idea of comparing our travel interests. After 24 years of marriage we should have a pretty good idea, right? Well, there were surprises. In a good way. While we were talking with our advisor, my wife was reminiscing about the time she spent in France during college. I had no idea Paris held such special meaning for her. So guess what we did for our 25th Anniversary?”
“Give them the world. I was struggling to find a gift for my parents who don’t need more “stuff.” I had encouraged them to travel but their “busy” routine always seemed to get in the way. After learning about Wanderlist, I knew it would be the perfect motivation for them. They were skeptical at first, but quickly became re-energized by all the possibilities. I just hope they don’t spend my entire inheritance. Then again, you can’t put a price on memories.”
