About TravelGrit

Founded in 2018 by adventure enthusiast Sarah Mitchell, TravelGrit emerged from a simple belief: travel should transform you, not just transport you. After years of experiencing cookie-cutter tours and superficial tourist traps, Sarah envisioned a different kind of travel company—one that prioritizes authentic connections over Instagram moments.

Our mission is to curate meaningful travel experiences that go beyond the surface. We partner with local communities, indigenous guides, and cultural ambassadors to create journeys that benefit both travelers and destinations. Every adventure is carefully crafted to ensure genuine cultural exchange, environmental responsibility, and personal growth.

What sets TravelGrit apart is our commitment to small-group experiences, typically limited to 8-12 travelers. This intimate setting allows for deeper connections with local communities and fellow adventurers. Our expert guides are not just knowledgeable about destinations—they're passionate storytellers who bring history, culture, and hidden gems to life.

From trekking through remote Himalayan villages to learning traditional cooking techniques from Tuscan grandmothers, our adventures are designed for curious souls who seek more than just a vacation. We believe that the most rewarding journeys happen when you step outside your comfort zone and embrace the unexpected. Join us in discovering not just new places, but new perspectives on the world and yourself.
