Local business Boundless Journeys is thrilled to announce its recognition as a top tour operator by Travel + Leisure readers for 2024, solidifying its place among the world’s best travel experiences.
Since 2003, the company has been a leader in providing outstanding travel experiences, offering walking, hiking, trekking, sea kayaking, expedition cruising, wildlife safaris, and cultural tours. With expert local guides, memorable accommodations, impeccable customer service, and a focus on responsible travel, Boundless Journeys is dedicated to creating unforgettable experiences for those with an adventurous spirit.
This accolade adds to Boundless Journeys’ history of recognition by Travel + Leisure readers, having previously been named a favorite tour operator in 2020, 2013, and 2009.
“I am honored by this recognition, and very grateful to all those who have trusted us with their vacation time. Our mission has always been to create outstanding travel experiences for people with an adventurous spirit,” says Hinesburg resident and founder Matt Holmes. “This recognition by readers of Travel + Leisure and our travelers tells us we are succeeding in our mission. The fact that our guides, staff, and the destinations we love have inspired our travelers to share their appreciation of Boundless Journeys in Travel + Leisure’s World’s Best Survey is very humbling.”
“There is nothing more satisfying in my work than hearing from our travelers who call after their adventure to say they had the trip of a lifetime,” reports Karen Cleary, a Destination Manager at Boundless Journeys for over 20 years. “With many of our guests, their adventure is the culmination of a year or two of planning. By then, we’ve gotten to know each other well, and so this kind of feedback is even more gratifying.”
Each year, Travel + Leisure asks its readers to share opinions on their travel experiences across the globe, from hotels and cities to airlines and tour companies. Over 186,000 Travel + Leisure readers completed the 2024 survey, casting more than 700,000 votes across 8,700 properties, including destinations, hotels, and travel services. On July 9, 2024, Travel + Leisure announced that Boundless Journeys was one of only 15 tour operators named World’s Best, with an overall score of 96 out of a possible 100.
Readers were asked to rate tour operators on staff/guides, itineraries/destinations, activities, accommodation, food, and value. The final scores are averages of these responses, quantifying the quality of their experience.
