About Us: The meaning of Travelisto

'listo' means Smart and Ready

A word from the Founder of Travelisto

At Travelisto, we believe travel is part of who we are. For most of human history, we were explorers, nomads at heart. Travel isn’t just about going somewhere new—it’s about breaking down barriers, discovering new stories, and finding ourselves in the process.

Our motto is: Travel Smart. Always Ready.

 

But let’s be real: planning the perfect trip can still feel like a puzzle. Between unreliable information on dubious websites and logistical challenges, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed.

That’s where we come in.

 

After more than 20 years of travelling the world, I’ve turned my passion into a full-time gig as a Travel Designer. From Barcelona to New York, Nairobi to Rio de Janeiro, every destination keeps my inspiration fresh and my knowledge on point. This means I’m always listoready—to create the best possible experiences for you.

 

What makes Travelisto different? It’s simple: local expertise, personal attention, 24/7 flexibility, and a passion for getting it right every time. My team and I work across different time zones, covering almost every hour of the day to ensure that when you need us, we’re there. And since we work remotely, we are often visiting and inspecting our destinations – chances are one of us maybe right in the place you want to visit (how about that for fresh local recommendations?). No call centres, no waiting in line. Just direct, real-time access to travel experts who care. You can even message me directly—that’s how personal we are.

At Travelisto, we craft experiences tailored to your desires, making the smart choice every step of the way. We’re always ready, so you can be too.

Welcome to a world where travel is effortless, personal, and unforgettable. Ready when you are.

Safe travels,

Abe
