Meet Outward Travel

Travel is Good for the World, and Good for the Soul

We believe travel is more than just movement from point A to point B. It is a tactile connection with the Earth and a participation in humanity's unfolding story. It is how we learn, how we grow, and how we find our place in the global community. At Outward Travel, we don't just plan vacations; we design the moments that will become the stories you tell for the rest of your life.

Meaningful Travel for Busy People

You have the desire to explore, but you don't have the time to sift through the noise. Our mission is simple: We help busy people craft meaningful travel experiences.

We curate itineraries from the world's best places and providers, tailored specifically for your unique interests, passions, and style. Whether you are a CEO needing a digital detox in a luxury villa, or a family looking to reconnect on a multigenerational cruise, we handle the complex logistics so you can focus on the anticipation. We don't limit ourselves to a particular style of travel or short list of destinations. As your interests evolve and grow, we're able to connect you with the places and people that will enhance your life's journey.

Clients Above Commission

In an industry driven by sales quotas, we stand apart. We work for you, not the provider. Our recommendations are unbiased and grounded in what will genuinely serve your needs. We put the quality of your experience above our commission, every single time. If a hotel isn't right for you, we won't book it—even if it pays more. We are your fiduciaries in fun, protecting your investment and your precious time off.

Our Values

Curiosity: We are perpetual students of the world.

Empathy: We approach every trip and every client with an open heart.

Curation: We don't just book trips—we are careful curators of experiences.

Integrity: We honor our clients' trust with unwavering transparency, honesty, and a commitment to always acting in their best interest.

Collaboration: We believe the best journeys are built together.

Jeof Oyster
Principal Advisor & Founder

Jeof founded Outward Travel with a singular goal: to share the transformative power of travel with others. A lifelong explorer, Jeof combines a deep emotional connection to the "spirit" of travel with rigorous professional training. He started traveling as a kid with his family, and his first international trip was at age 12. Since then he spent a life in the corporate and nonprofit worlds traveling, and now seeks to leverage that experience to help our clients. He holds a variety of certifications, including ASTA's Verified Travel Advisor (VTA), The Travel Institute's Certified Travel Associate (CTA), is a CLIA Accredited Cruise Counselor, and holds a long list of provider-specific certifications.

Whether he is inspecting a new boutique hotel or navigating complex group contracts, Jeof acts as the architect of your experience. He bridges the gap between the logistical details and the emotional memories you want to create.

She ensures that our clients feel supported, organized, and prepared from the moment they book until they return home.
