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 custom guidebook. This PDF includes your personalized itinerary, excursion bookings, restaurant recommendations, and a checklist of items to print and pack for your trip.

Reviews

“Iman planned our trip to Puerto Rico last year, from our lodgings in different Airbnbs in San Juan to the delicious food, fun activities and cultural attractions we explored. Kayaking, soaking up the sun on Flamenco Beach, and eating a lot of mofongo. It was a week well spent. I highly recommend Booked by Iman.”
