About Journy
Tastemaker-driven concierge to plan your perfect trip
We created Journy to handle the most important part of your travel—figuring out what to do when you get to your destination. Journy is a personal travel concierge that uses real human expertise. Our recommendations come from hand-picked top chefs and experts. While we liken Journy to having an in-the-know local friend tell you what's best to do there, Journy goes beyond that by taking care of restaurant reservations, as well as hotel and activity bookings. We're currently live in over 50 cities around the world. While other travel concierge services focus on helping you book your flights and hotel, Journy focuses on making sure you have the best plan while you're there, with an interface that makes it easy to keep track of all the things you want to do (without having to go through the pain of learning a new tool to do it yourself). Journy is currently available at the introductory price of $15 per day of travel (2 day trip = $30).
