Peregrina was founded in 2025 with a specific client in mind: people who had given up on travel agencies entirely and were planning their own trips because no company had yet given them a reason not to.

They had used a big agency, received something generic, felt vaguely ripped off, and either started planning travel themselves or stopped taking the kind of trips they really wanted. The client at the end of the pipeline was paying for the overhead of three companies as much as the travel itself, and the level of detail they required was something larger agencies simply could not provide.

Peregrina decided that was unacceptable, and has deliberately taken the opposite approach. We believe in small businesses, boutique hotels with personality, family-owned operations, and women-led companies — and that is exactly who we work with. Travel is fundamentally human, and we think the people behind it should be too.

Every client works with one person from the first enquiry to the flight home. The briefs that come to Peregrina range from weekend escapes to multigenerational family trips, from Americans reconnecting with their European heritage to family offices whose principals want to see more of the world.

We do a lot of the work the old-fashioned way, on purpose. We work through people, not portals — directly with owners, managers, hoteliers, guides, and operators. It is a practical choice that gives our clients better information, better coordination, and an experience that is even better on the ground than it was on the itinerary.
