Traveling with Leilani is like being transplanted into a Film like 'Midnight in Paris' where we meet up at fabulous cafe for cocktails, see amazing art & relax for a casual lunch to people watch! Not to mention, meeting new & interesting people!"

From my New York trip, I learned that you're only limited by the horizon you set in life. Look forward and work hard. Nothing on earth is out of your reach."

Traveling with Leilani is adventurous! I learned a lot from her!"

. . . Leilani's love of travel is infectious! She is responsible for opening my eyes to how different and beautiful other countries and cultures are. She taught me how to be a good traveler, respect local culture, and take it all in. I think back on that trip every time I travel, which is often, thankfully! The wanderlust is contagious! Hope we can travel together again one of these days!"

My first trip across the big pond was with Leilani Barnett! She is an amazing human and an even more amazing travel partner!! We had a group of more than 50, and she never flinched!!! We went from London, England to Paris, France to Rome, Italy, and she never missed a beat!! I can't wait for the day when we get to travel again!!!!"
Regina Woods
I've had the honor of traveling with Leilani on two separate occasions. Not only does she possess massive knowledge of geography, she's a master of her craft when it comes to writing. Traveling to other countries is always a fun and fascinating adventure. I look forward to our next travels together!"
Caleb Woods: Poet and Author of "Harnessing Darkness"
“Before we left and while we were there, Leilani took great steps to make sure the places we were seeing, the history we were learning, and the stories we were told would come alive then—and in the future when we retold them to others. She has a knack for planning creative travel opportunities, but her gift for combining it with learning and cultivating experiences exceeds all."
Kimberly Holland: Southern Living Magazine
"Walking the cobblestones of Paris with you after dark was a blast! Any crazy idea I had, you were all in! Can't wait for the next time!!❤️"
