thoughtfully discovered adventures

Inspired by your curiousity

We're a full-service boutique travel agency

Crafting seamless travel experiences designed to help you steal away cherished moments with the ones you love most

Meet Lindsay Peterson,

Founder of Valise Travel

As a mom (of twins!), I know what it’s like to feel constantly pulled in a million different directions. Your travel experiences are one of the few times you’re all able to lay down your duties—and those pesky phones—and simply marvel, together.

At Valise, my team and I understand that your vacations are precious. And so we’re going to give them the special treatment they deserve, every time.

VALISE [vuh-lees] noun

A small handheld piece of luggage, perfectly suited for light travels and grand adventures.

Our brand is inspired by the French concept of the “valise” because we believe in keeping things simple. You don’t need to pack your travels to the brim to get the most out of your vacation experience.

Instead, you just need a few things, done exceptionally well: a tightly edited itinerary, a personal approach that puts your passions first, and expert support, every step of the way.

And above all, you need to pack your sense of wonder. Because the best souvenir won’t fit in your suitcase—it’s the lifetime memories you’ll come home with.

Unpacking the Valise Difference

Tailored Journeys

“Cookie cutter” or “custom crafted”? For us, it’s a no brainer. Our deeply personal approach to travel planning means we always start with one thing: you. Every aspect of your journey will be tailored to your needs, your passions, and your unique sense of wonder.

Destination Immersion

Don’t just “see” your destination—get hands on with immersive experiences led by locals who will welcome you into their homes and hearts. We work directly with our favorite vetted travel partners around the globe who we trust to reveal the real soul of a place.

Seamless Design

Planes, trains, and automobiles—how do you stitch it all together for one seamless escape? That’s exactly what we’re here for. We thoughtfully plot out your itinerary so that you experience minimal stress while you travel, no matter how far you may journey.

Balanced Itineraries

Whether you’re traveling with your friends, kids, or partner, we’ll balance the travel preferences for all travelers in your group—so everyone comes home saying, “best trip ever.” You get to set your preferred pace, too, for the ideal mix of rest and adventure.

Concierge Curation

Spa appointments, gourmet dinner arrangements, concert and theater tickets, and more—it’s all the little “extras” that add up to a singularly unforgettable journey. That’s why we offer a concierge-level booking service so you can enjoy a fully fleshed-out escape.

VIP Ammenities

Get ready for upgrades galore. We’re proudly affiliated with Virtuoso, the world’s leading collection of luxury travel companies. When our clients check into Virtuoso properties, they’re often privy to exclusive luxury perks and amenities—and extra special treatment, always.

Adventure awaits — and it starts with Valise
