About Ember Travel Co.
Our Story

We are Ember Travel Co.

We are a team of travel planners who believe that your vacation should start the moment you decide to take one. Not after 40 hours of research. Not after comparing 200 hotels. Not after building a spreadsheet that takes longer than the trip itself.

Why we started this.

We have been in the travel industry for years. We have seen the same thing over and over. People spend weeks planning a trip that is supposed to be relaxing, and by the time they leave, they are already exhausted.

We started Ember Travel Co. to fix that. We believe everyone deserves a great trip. Not just people with big budgets or tons of free time. Everyone.

Whether you are planning a family cruise, a honeymoon in Italy, a quick beach getaway, or a once in a lifetime tour, we bring the same level of care and attention to every single trip.

Our Approach

What makes us different

Honest advice and personalized planning from people who have actually been there.

person_pin_circle

We plan around you.

We don't sell packages off a shelf. Every trip we build starts with a conversation about what you want, what matters to you, and what your budget looks like. Then we go to work.

We have been there.

We don't recommend places we have never seen. Our team travels to these destinations, stays in these hotels, takes these tours, and eats at these restaurants.

We are honest.

If a destination is not the right fit, we will tell you. If a hotel looks better online than it does in person, we will steer you somewhere better.

Meet the Founder

William Lee

Over 20 countries in the last five years. Not as a tourist checking boxes, but as someone obsessed with understanding what makes a destination worth visiting and how to experience it the right way.

That obsession is the heart of Ember Travel Co. William founded the company with a simple belief: planning a trip should never feel like a second job. He takes on the logistics, the research, the coordination, and the stress so his clients can focus on the part that actually matters — being there.

His clients range from families booking their annual Caribbean all inclusive to couples planning once-in-a-lifetime journeys through Africa, Asia, and Europe. He has planned ocean cruises from the Caribbean to the Mediterranean, river cruises through the waterways of Europe and Asia, and expedition voyages to Antarctica, the Galapagos, and French Polynesia.

Ask him about his personal favorites and he won't hesitate: Japan, Scotland, and Iceland. Three countries that couldn't be more different from each other, which says a lot about the kind of traveler he is and the kind of trips he loves to build.
