Welcome to Savali!

Planning a trip should feel exciting, not exhausting. This service is for anyone who’s ever gotten stuck in 30 browser tabs, worried about safety or ethical choices, or just didn’t know where to begin.

To travel with Savali is to reimagine what travel could look like, especially for people who move through the world with layered identities, complex needs, or deep values.

“Savali” means “journey” in the Kamba language (an indigenous language spoken by the Akamba people of eastern Kenya)

This Travel Planning Coaching service is perfect for:

🌍 First-time travelers (especially to Africa or the Global South) who want guidance before booking their trip.

(note: this service is available for all global destinations)

✈️ Any travelers seeking clarity

🧠 Overwhelmed trip planners who want to DIY but don’t know where to start

🖤 Folks who want their money to support minority, Indigenous, and locally owned businesses

♿️ Travelers navigating accessibility needs and looking for inclusive options

🌱 Conscious travelers craving a softer, slower, more aligned experience

What You’ll Receive:

🗺️ Tailored destination brainstorming based on your interests, timeline, and goals

📍Strategy session to get clarity on where to go, how long to stay, what to prioritize, and how to budget

✨ Ethical travel insights, including how to find sustainable stays, BIPOC-led tours, and community-based experiences

🌍 Cultural + political context, so you’re not caught off guard

🗂️ Option to add a custom itinerary if you want extra support afterward. The price of this consultation will be credited toward the cost of the custom itinerary service (e.g. $59.99 off the $299.99 planning fee).

How It Works:

Once you book, you’ll receive a quick intake form to help us prepare for your call.

We’ll then hop on a 60-minute coaching session to map out your vision, troubleshoot your questions, and make the planning process feel empowering instead of overwhelming.

You'll leave the session with clarity, direction, a recording of our call and any relevant resources we discussed.
