A Letter from Tania Burke

Travel has a way of creating moments that stay with usโ€”a peaceful sunset, laughter shared at the top of a summit, the taste of a well-earned local meal, or the simple joy of watching a landscape unfold around you. Whether you joined us for a morning ride in California, a rewarding climb in the Alps, a hike along Portugalโ€™s coast, or a gravel adventure closer to home, you helped shape a year filled with connection, discovery, and joy.

Thank you for trusting us to craft the experiences that matter most. Youโ€™re the reason our guides go the extra mile, why our team continues to refine each itinerary, and why weโ€™re constantly dreaming up new ways to help you see the world.

From all of us at Trek Travel, we wish you a holiday season filled with warmth, joy, and the promise of new journeys.

Tania Burke,

President, Trek Travel

Trek Travel Named a Travel + Leisure Worldโ€™s Best Tour Operator

Being named a Travel + Leisure Worldโ€™s Best Tour Operator is an honorโ€”but more importantly, itโ€™s a reflection of the people, care, and experiences that define every Trek Travel trip.

Each year, Travel + Leisureโ€™s Worldโ€™s Best Awards are shaped by thousands of readers who vote based on real travel experiences. These arenโ€™t industry insiders or marketing panelsโ€”theyโ€™re travelers whoโ€™ve been there, done it, and felt the difference. Thatโ€™s what makes this recognition especially meaningful to us.

As we celebrate this milestone, weโ€™re also looking forward. From cycling and gravel adventures to hiking, walking, self-guided trips, and ride camps, discover the experiences that led travelers to name Trek Travel a Worldโ€™s Best Tour Operator.
