Editoral Review of Travel Julia's Way
Travel Julia's Way is the brand name of independent travel agent Julia Matheson. She wants to help you travel with no hassle, and to go beyond the guidebook. For her this means you'll have fun, eat good food, and indulge your inner explorer - whatever that means for you.
What Makes Them Stand Out?
Julia’s travel philosophy revolves around showcasing the highlights of the country that you’re interested in seeing. If you’re interested in food, she knows the best restaurants to recommend and will help arrange your travel schedule around making sure you get to eat there! If you’re a film buff looking to see filming locations, that’s a speciality of hers (especially Game of Thrones!).
Who Travels With Them?
Julia’s agent services will be helpful to most ages and travel types. She tends to attract those who want a classic tour, with plenty of free time but also a lot of history, culture, and sightseeing.
Where Do They Operate?
Her speciality is Europe, especially France. River cruises are one of her favorite ways to travel, and Europe is certainly one of the best places for this.
Why Travel With Them?
For a fully customized and curated experience, with a knowledgeable travel expert, Julia is your go-to girl. She’ll be your touch point all through the process, and loves creating a unique experience that you’ll enjoy.

About the company
If you are going to travel somewhere in the world, I’m the one that will tell you exactly what to do and, chances are, you’ll love it.
After listening to your travel tastes and style, I will act as your virtual, walking, talking tour guide so that you don’t need to spend your vacation with your nose buried in a guide book, or stressed over all the details.
As an explorer at heart, who has lived abroad and traveled the world, I have a crazy good gift for piecing together phenomenal itineraries that will get you seeing, smelling, tasting and feeling the heart of your destination -- all while tapping into your personal interests and preferences.
If you are a movie buff, I’ll help you find the places your favorite films made you dream about. If you are a foodie, I’ll direct you to the hidden gems and local delicacies. A history lover? I’ll make sure that you walk in the footsteps of bygone kings and queens.
A little bit about me? I am a French major & International MBA grad that loves Europe, history, food and wine. I’m a bit of a movie dork, and love classic literature too. I don’t love mass market, large ship cruising, all-inclusive resorts, or cookie cutter, generic travel packages.
If you are going to travel halfway around the world, I don’t want you sitting in some line, or on some bus filled with tourists. I will not only get you there with ease, I will expose you to the most incredible experiences and highlights of your chosen destination leaving you with memories you will cherish forever.
