I founded Cultural Travel Spain and Bridget Ryder Cultural Travel from my passion for travel and Spain.
I'm originally from St. Louis, Missouri, USA, but life has taken me in many directions, including stints living in Argentina and the Netherlands.
In 2014, I married a Spaniard, and in 2018, we moved back to his homeland in northwestern Spain.
From here, I run my full service independent travel agency affiliated with Archer Travel Service, Inc., an IATA-licensed and Better Business Bureau A+ certified agency, which gives me access to the best travel experiences for my clients with the highest guarantees for client protection and satifaction.
I am also part of a network of other independent Archer Travel agents who share knowledge and expertise to ensure the very best for our clients.
Planning Your Trip
Whether its curating a unique travel experience, creating a seemless multi-country journey, booking an amazing cruise, or finding the perfect group trip, I will plan the ideal trip for you.
The easiest way to get started is completing a Travel Proposal Request Form, which will give me details about what you are hoping for this trip.
I will repsond with a several itinerary options within two business days.
When you have had time to review it, we can schedule a call to discuss it. Once you tell me we have the itininerary just right, I'll send you the reservation authorization form.
It's important to stay engaged with the process, as prices and availability can only be held for a very limited time.
Booking
Now we're ready to book!
Handling the booking is part of my service as your travel agent. I am happy to do it.
Nevertheñess, some clients prefer to receive a secure payment link so they can enter their payment details in complete privacy. You can let me know if this is your preference.
With You On Your Trip
While your traveling, I'll be just a phone call or a message away in case of problems--a canceled flight, a hotel room not up to standard, a driver you can't find...
I work with established and highly reputible travel services, so problems are unlikely, but the best way to prevent emergencies is to be prepared.
Follow-up
Once you're home, I'll follow up to get feedback on your experience. I love hearing how my clients trips went and about their adventures.
