Panel 1

How It Works

Follow these 4 steps to receive your own custom trip itinerary.

  1. Complete a quick travel survey. 
    This will give me an understanding of how you like to travel and the types of activities you enjoy.
  2. Schedule a free trip chat.
    We’ll speak via phone to discuss where you’re headed (or brainstorm possible destinations), sights and activities you want to include, and the services I provide. There is no obligation to purchase at this stage.
  3. Sign the travel planning agreement and pay the service fee.
    Once you’ve chosen Booked by Iman, you will receive a travel planning agreement outlining the services I provide and the cost. After the agreement has been signed and service fee paid, planning will commence.
  4. Receive your custom itinerary. 
    You will receive a digital copy of your personalized trip itinerary, including flights, tours and excursions, restaurant recommendations, and a packing list.

Reviews

“Iman is incredibly knowledgeable about all aspects of foreign travel. She was also very involved. I knew that I could reach out to her for a suggestion/solution for any issue. It was obvious that our safety and enjoyment was paramount.” (Holy Land 2023)

“Iman made planning my first trip to Paris with my mom a breeze. We were able to book tickets in advance and save time by her narrowing down the options!!! Will def use Iman for planning future trips!”
