Travel clubs provide a means for more Black travelers to get out and see the world with like-minded people.
Written by By DeAnna Taylor
We’ve all been there, especially as Black travelers. We get this grand idea to travel with our immediate circle of friends, and days before it’s time to take off, you end up being the only person going. You’re left frustrated, but now also faced with the responsibility of potentially navigating a foreign place all by yourself. That can be both scary and overwhelming. But, it’s time to stop letting failed group trips keep you from seeing the world. That’s where travel clubs and groups come in.
Travel clubs not only provide a means for more Black travelers to get out and see the world with like-minded people, but it also eliminates the chore of having to plan an entire vacation on your own. As you begin mapping out your future bucket list travel destinations, here are some Black-owned travel clubs and groups to consider joining for your trips.

United States Air Force veteran Kurtis Henry created this travel club in 2014 to provide an outlet for military vets as they transitioned back into civilian life. Henry, who has been to over 50 countries himself, found that travel became a form of therapy for him, and felt that other vets would do the same. The group plans unique itineraries around the world, while leaning heavily on Henry’s connections to local tour operators. Upcoming trips include: Thailand and South Africa in 2024.
