CUSTOM GROUP TRAVEL
Travel is better when it's shared.
Your people. Your journey
Whether you're bringing together family, friends, colleagues or a community with something in common, Mahana Travel provides the professional planning and coordination needed to bring everyone, and every detail together.
Custom Group Travel inquiries are personally reviewed before a complimentary Group Journey Conversation is offered.
YOUR GROUP. WITHOUT
HAVING TO MANAGE IT ALL.
Planning travel for yourself is one thing. Planning for ten, twenty or fifty people is something entirely different.
Rooms or cabins, traveller information, deposits, payment deadlines, questions and countless details can quickly fall back on the person who simply wanted to bring everyone together.
That's where Mahana Travel comes in.
You bring the people together. I help bring the journey together.

WHAT MAHANA TRAVEL MANAGES
Depending on the journey and group arrangement, Mahana Travel can coordinate:
HOW IT WORKS
01. TELL ME ABOUT YOUR GROUP
Complete the short Group Journey Profile with your destination, approximate dates, number of travellers and what you're hoping to create.
02. MAHANA REVIEWS YOUR REQUEST
I'll personally review your plans to determine whether Mahana Travel and the journey are a good fit.
03. LET'S TALK
If the group is a potential fit, I'll invite you to a complimentary Group Journey Conversation to discuss the vision, logistics and expectations.
04. DEFINE THE JOURNEY
If we decide to work together, I'll outline the recommended planning approach, professional services and any applicable planning or group-management investment.
05. BRING EVERYONE TOGETHER
Once the group arrangements are established, Mahana Travel provides a structured process for your travellers to register, book, pay and prepare.
A NOTE ABOUT PRICING
Group arrangements can sometimes provide access to preferred rates, reserved inventory, amenities or other benefits that may not be available through an individual booking.
However, group travel doesn't automatically mean the lowest available price.
Group pricing and benefits depend on the destination, supplier, travel dates, availability and specific group contract.
Mahana Travel will always look for appropriate value while considering the needs of the group as a whole.
BRINGING THE GROUP TOGETHER
You shouldn't have to become everyone's travel agent.
As the group organizer, your role is to bring the idea and the people together.
Once the travel arrangements are established, Mahana Travel can communicate directly with individual travellers regarding their reservations, required information, payments and travel preparation.
That means fewer spreadsheets, fewer payment reminders and fewer late-night messages asking you what time the flight leaves.
CUSTOM GROUP TRAVEL VS. MAHANA GROUP SPACE
CUSTOM GROUP TRAVEL
You bring the group.
You already have people who want to travel together, and Mahana Travel helps design and coordinate the journey.
MAHANA GROUP SPACE
We've secured the space. You choose to go.
Mahana Travel has already secured group inventory on selected travel opportunities. You don't need to organize a group—you can simply book into available space.
Have a journey worth bringing people together for?
Tell me a little about your group.
I'll personally review your plans and, if Mahana Travel looks like the right fit, I'll invite you to a complimentary Group Journey Conversation.
Submitting a Group Journey Profile doesn't constitute a booking or planning agreement and doesn't require payment.
