ABOUT
Here’s how it started, and why Travel SMPL exists.
There's the Spain tourists are sold, and the Spain people
who live there actually experience.
Most trip planning is about covering ground. Another landmark, another tour, another thing to check off. But the trips that actually stay with people rarely have the most stops. They have a great place to stay, a couple of dinners worth remembering, and enough room to actually be somewhere.
Travel SMPL was built around a simple idea: a handful of real, well-chosen experiences, hosted by people who aren’t running a tourism business — they’re just sharing what they already do.
WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING
“Working with Travel SMPL took all the stress out of planning. Everything felt personal, not packaged.”
— CELESTE
“I would have never found half of these places on my own. It made the trip.”
— KAY
“This felt like getting insider access, not a tour. Exactly what I wanted from Spain.”
— BECKY
I'm Madeline.
I spent over four years living in Spain, traveling to 20 countries, and hosting friends and family who had never been and didn’t know where to start. Some trips were planned down to the last detail. Others we figured out as we went. Both taught me the same thing. The best part of a trip is almost never the thing everyone else is already doing.
Every host on this platform is someone I’ve personally connected with. Every experience is one I’d send a friend to without hesitation. This isn’t a big company. It’s one person, building something special, one relationship at a time.
