About us

Crossing serves travel for the modern day traveler: you.

As frequent travelers, we were unsatisfied with the industry. Technology brought an

overabundance or information, and agencies don’t understand today’s traveler.

We decided to recreate. We’ve combined the best technology available with customer obsessed advisors to create truly memorable trips.

Every trip starts from the ground up - no one trip looks the same. And we pride ourselves on high touch service, staying on hand through the entirety of your trip. Traveling with Crossing is an experience in and of itself.

We take a holistic view of travel and are obsessive over details. Travel isn’t a transaction. Its a present, always changing experience, and we pride ourselves in our ability to curate that experience and adapt to change.
