Welcome to B.A.G. Travel! My name is Michael henderson, and I am the founder and CEO of B.A.G. Travel, a premier group travel consulting firm specializing in crafting immersive and transformative travel experiences.

My journey has taken me to more than 35 countries, each adventure fueling my passion for sharing the beauty and diversity of our planet with others. Driven by this insight and my passion for travel, I founded B.A.G. Travel with the mission to be a global “adventure designer.”

Our services include:

    •    Group Travel Planning: Tailored itineraries for corporate groups, educational institutions, and social organizations.

    •    Cultural Immersion: Experiences designed to connect travelers with local communities and traditions.

Over the years, B.A.G. Travel has grown significantly, expanding our offerings to include bespoke itineraries, educational tours, and corporate retreats. Our commitment to providing exceptional travel experiences has remained unwavering, and we take pride in creating unforgettable memories for our clients.
