about us

Welcome to Muse Bespoke Escapes

We are a family of travel lovers

I’m Kristin, a California girl who booked a one-way ticket to Thailand in 2012 and built an international travel brand along the way.

I got my start as a travel blogger, launching Be My Travel Muse in 2012 and Parenthood Adventures in 2023. You may have seen me on Instagram too!

I’ve traveled to 65 countries (16 with my toddler!), hiking the 14-day Annapurna Circuit in Nepal, meditating for 10 days in silence in Thailand (twice), trekking to find mountain gorillas, and taking over 150 women on women’s adventure tours around the world.

Then I became a mom, and knew I wanted the love of travel to extend to my son.

Traveling with young kids opens up a whole new set of opportunities, and also challenges. With our unique experience, I wanted to create a way for families to replicate our trips, benefitting from our firsthand experience.

Muse Bespoke Escapes is here to help craft your travel dreams and make them a reality. My team and I can offer assistance during the booking process, helping you get access to the best resorts around the world — tried and tested for the perfect getaway — whether that’s with yourself, a loved one, or the whole family.

frequently asked:

Can you help people from any country?

Yes! We offer our services worldwide.

Are you affiliated with a licensed travel agency?

Yes! We are with The Travel Society out of Colorado, USA. you can read more about our industry qualifications and memberships here.

Do I still earn full rewards points with hotel bookings with Hilton, Marriott, Hyatt, etc?

You do. These are considered direct bookings, therefore you gain all the usual benefits of being a member and cardholder with each hotel consortium we work with.

Are room upgrades guaranteed?

While some perks like resort credits and VIP status are always available with our bookings, early check in, late check out, and upgrades will depend on hotel availability, which is ultimately determined at check-in based on occupancy. During holidays and super busy seasons, an upgrade may simply not be possible, but we always follow up with hotels prior to check in to try to secure the upgrades for our clients, and we have a good track record.

Does this cost anything?

We’re happy to provide hotel booking service free of charge. We are compensated for these bookings by the hotel, so there is no need to assess a fee. For more involved bespoke trip planning, we charge a fee as we dedicate an entire team to planning these dream trips. See our fee schedule.

What’s the process/how long will this take?

Hotel bookings can be as simple as sending you a booking link, or can take more time, completely dependent on the hotel’s response time. We endeavor to respond to all inquiries within 24-48 hours.
