ACADIA /əˈkeɪ di ə/

I'm Andy, travel planner and founder of Acadia Travel.

I live on the West Coast of Scotland and I love travelling to explore new, unique places. But I am equally obsessed with planning the perfect itinerary and finding the best prices possible.

It all started by helping friends plan their trips and trawling the internet to find unique experiences and accommodation to suit their budgets. Now this has expanded into Acadia Travel - a trusted travel planning service that does all the hard work for you.

Why Acadia Travel?

Acadia Travel is a bespoke travel planning service. We take your requirements, design your ideal trip and find the best way to book. We'll send you several tailored options to choose from and when you're happy, Acadia Travel helps you book directly with providers so you get your perfect trip at a great price.

Acadia Travel is not a travel agency. A travel agent acts as an agent between you and a supplier (such as a hotel or airline). They earn money by commission and this is built into the price you pay. Also, agents usually have agreements with certain providers which limit your options. Alternatively, booking directly gives you complete freedom to create the trip you want and as an added bonus it is usually the best way to save money.

But searching for your ideal trip takes time and effort. Days and weeks go by as you compare dates, airports, airlines, booking sites, reviews, discount codes etc. Acadia Travel does all this hard work for you!

And because we're not an agency, we have complete freedom to hand-pick options that suit you best. Whether it's an all-inclusive package holiday, an AirBnB Canadian road trip, a luxury retreat in the Scottish Highlands or a business trip to Brisbane; Acadia Travel can help!

Package holidays can be great and we will certainly recommend destinations where this could be a good option.

But there's a whole world out there with unique and interesting places to stay - not available with your big package holiday companies. We can help craft your perfect itinerary that reflects your personal style and pace.

At Acadia Travel we love searching for that hidden gem; extra-special accommodation that provides an authentic and unique experience. We generally find locally-owned places to be full of character, charm and offer excellent customer service and value for money.

Whatever your preferences, Acadia Travel can design the perfect trip to make your whole travel experience as memorable as the destination.
