The Indispensable Value of a Luxury Travel Advisor

At GTC, we know that exceptional travel begins with human connection. No app or search engine can replace the knowledge, access and insight of a skilled luxury travel advisor — and Extra Mile Club was created to show the world exactly that.

Each episode pairs two GTC advisors as they compete to design custom itineraries for celebrity clients. These professionals bring their A-game, blending destination expertise with creative vision and attention to detail. The winner becomes the celebrity’s personal travel planner, a reward that speaks volumes about the power of personalized, expert-led travel.

It’s not about booking transactions — it’s about storytelling through travel. It’s about knowing the right questions to ask, the hidden gems to unlock and how to turn preferences into unforgettable moments. That’s what our advisors do best.

Raising the Profile of Travel Advisors Nationwide

Since its premiere, Extra Mile Club has reached over 40 million viewers per season, showcasing the talents of GTC advisors in exciting destinations such as:

  • London with TV personalities, entrepreneurs and former WWE Superstars The Bella Twins Nikki and Brie Garcia
  • Maui with Selling Sunset’s Emma Hernan and Chelsea Lazkani
  • New York City with Bachelor in Paradise alumni Ashley and Jared Haibon
  • Portland, Oregon with American Ninja Warrior hosts Matt Iseman and Akbar Gbaja-Biamila

Every episode highlights not just the destination, but the advisor’s role in curating a travel experience that’s seamless, inspired and deeply personalized.
