Travel With Erik — slow travel, done right.

Luxury Travel Advisor · Austin, TX

Slow travel, done right.

The whole trip, considered. Not just the parts you’d book yourself.

Before the itinerary, there’s you.

Erik Scheets

I’m Erik. I plan trips for travelers who care more about the texture of a week than the trophy of having gone — small ships where the staff greets you by name, hotels where the day is yours to sleep through if you want, itineraries that leave room for the trip to find you.

The work starts with you. Who’s traveling, what success looks like, what a wrong itinerary would feel like. From there I do the research, vet the partners, and build the proposal. I stay on the line when something shifts mid-trip — that’s when the work earns its keep.

Honeymoons, family reunions, and the kinds of trips that don’t fit into a neat little box yet. The itinerary always changes, but the goal doesn’t: to make sure you arrive somewhere that matters, instead of just landing there.

How I work — the long version →︎

Four ways I plan.

How I work.

  1. Discovery

    A 30-minute call. No fee, no pressure. We talk about the trip you've been imagining and what's been getting in the way.

  2. Research

    I disappear for a week or two. Hotels, ships, guides, dates, the things you didn't know to ask about. Signature Travel Network unlocks the doors.

  3. Proposal

    A single document. Itinerary, hotels, flights, the shape of the trip. You review. We refine.

  4. Trip

    I'm reachable for the length of the trip. If something shifts, I'm already on it.

Real trips, real travelers

What clients say after the trip.

Three recent journeys, in their own words.

Hosted & Group Trips

Trips I’m building.

A short list. When a route or a vendor lands right, I host a group around it. These three are in motion.

The Dispatch

Plan it together

Tell me where you're thinking of going.

A 30-minute discovery call is where it starts. Bring a season, a partner, or just a feeling. I'll take it from there.
