Our Story

Who we are

Hey, we are Jennifer and Raphael, a couple based in the region of Basel, Switzerland. For most of our lives, we followed careers in Human Resources, and that is where our paths crossed, igniting a shared passion for exploration and travel.

This shared enthusiasm has taken us to all seven continents, from stunning Swiss mountains in our backyard, to vibrant European cities, to endless forests in Canada, across the African savanna to the end of the world in Antarctica.

Throughout 14 years of adventure, we have covered over 800,000 kilometers, and our most recent journey, a 15-month sabbatical around the world, rekindled our desire to share the wonders of travel with fellow adventurers.

From Passion to Business

Our journey into the world of the travel business was ignited by a chance encounter with a Travel Agent during an African expedition. The question arose during our conversation, 'If travel is your passion, why don't you make it your business?' This idea, though previously unexplored, sparked a fire in us. After careful consideration and conversations with industry experts, we took the monumental decision that would change our lives forever – we founded Verdugo Travel.

Our professional experience from our former careers in HR has equipped us with a strong foundation in communication, organization, problem-solving, and customer focus – qualities that are pivotal in our commitment to deliver exceptional travel experiences.

Our Travel Agency

We understand the importance of clear communication, seamless organization, and customer satisfaction, and we are excited to bring these values to the heart of our travel company.

What sets us apart is our deep-rooted expertise in select destinations worldwide. We have journeyed extensively through various continents, giving us invaluable knowledge about these regions. From Africa's sprawling savanna to the vibrant streets of Asia, we are well-versed in the secrets, culture, and adventure that each unique place holds.

As experienced travelers, we possess an intimate understanding of what sets a great journey apart from a merely good one. Our extensive adventures have taught us the nuances that transform a trip into an unforgettable experience. But, we also recognize that travel, with all its beauty and excitement, can sometimes bring unexpected challenges.

We specialize in crafting customized, personalized trips and vacations that cater to your unique interests. Whether you are an avid safari or wildlife enthusiast, a road-trip adventurer, a culture seeker, or you are up for the excitement of an expedition, we have got you covered.
