About Alexis
I'm Alexis Bailey, the travel advisor behind Mission to Travel. With two decades of experience designing journeys around the world, I've built my business around getting to know my clients and looking after their travel with an extraordinary level of care and attention to detail.
I'm naturally a details person. I want to know that the flights make sense, the accommodation is in the right location, the timing works and all the pieces come together properly — including the things you may never have known to consider.
Many of my clients have travelled with me for years. The more I get to know you, the better I understand how you like to travel, what matters to you and what will make a trip truly special.
Why Work With Mission to Travel
Extraordinary travel doesn't happen by chance. It's all in the details.
A great journey is made up of hundreds of decisions — some big, some seemingly insignificant. With two decades of experience, I look at your journey as a whole, thinking through the logistics, connections and finer details that turn a collection of bookings into a trip that simply works.
Sometimes that means finding an experience you didn't know existed. Sometimes it's choosing an accommodation because its location makes the rest of your itinerary work. And sometimes it's spotting a potential problem before it ever becomes one.
My clients often tell me, “I never would have thought of that” or “I couldn't have done this without you.”
That's what Mission to Travel is about: expert planning, trusted advice and bringing it all together.

Designing your journey
1. Start the conversation
We begin with a phone, Zoom or in-person conversation where we explore your ideas, travel style and what you hope to experience. This is where I start to understand what will make the journey truly meaningful for you.
2. Crafting the itinerary
Using two decades of experience and trusted global partners, I design an itinerary tailored specifically to you. We refine the details together together until every element feels just right.
3. Confirming the details
Once the itinerary is finalised, I take care of all bookings, payments and logistics so everything flows seamlessly from one destination to the next.
4. Travel with confidence
While you travel, you have the reassurance of support directly from me should anything unexpected arise, along with trusted partners on the ground around the world.
Great journeys take thoughtful planning. An engagement fee applies to begin the design process, allowing me the time to research, refine and bring every detail of your journey together. Your fee is capped and confirmed before work begins.
Client Story: An 8-Week Antarctica & South America Journey
Trip Highlights: Antarctica • Rio Carnival • Peru • Ica Valley • Atacama Desert
“We really couldn't have done it without her. Alexis had contacts and ‘tentacles’ everywhere!”
We were away for nearly 8 weeks visiting Antarctica and South America’s highlights.
Alexis certainly went above and beyond what was expected of a travel agent. It was nearly two years in the planning.
Alexis worked closely with us in the planning stage, gave us inspirational feedback on our travel blog, and even spent time with us reviewing all the tours.
Alexis is not only professional but warm and friendly. She met with us at home and communicated regularly by email, always taking our ideas on board and explaining clearly if something wouldn’t work.
We wouldn’t plan with anyone else. Alexis is the best.
