About Us: Focused Escapes specializes in crafting unique, transformative travel experiences. We focus on small group tours to hand-picked, unforgettable destinations worldwide. Our approach combines in-depth research, local collaboration, and outside-the-box thinking to design boutique tours. Our Philosophy: Travel is an art, and we are the artists. We partner with local photographers, food bloggers, and Instagrammers to create exclusive experiences that are often unknown to traditional travel agents. Our tours are advertised primarily through personal networks, ensuring a personalized and intimate travel experience. They are not traditional photography or food tours but we take both of those things into consideration when we plan our tours. Photographers who don’t want someone shouting out camera settings will appreciate our extra time in photogenic places. And people who believe food is part of a destination’s culture, will appreciate that our food options are well-rounded–not food-centered like a real food tour.
