Vacation planning just got easier. Meet Compass & Key, a travel website dedicated to curious, active travelers. Free planning tools, self-guided walking tours, travel tips and resources, and much more. OUR STORY What began as a blog about the travel adventures of a young couple has grown into a full travel planning website. It’s a rather selfish endeavor, really - Compass & Key is the website we’ve always wanted for our own vacations. WHY COMPASS & KEY Travel Smart --- Destination guides are curated with thoughtful content to make planning simpler. Four categories - essentials, itineraries, resources and an interactive map - help you prepare for and inspire your travels while bringing the destination to life. Travel Differently --- Itineraries focus on small sections of the world, encouraging deeper connections with people and places. We call them "itineraries for wandering": self-guided walking tours that identify interesting things to do but also allow for new discoveries. They provide enough time to settle into a place without feeling rushed and include advice to avoid the crowds. Most importantly, our itineraries connect travelers with natural spaces that rejuvenate the spirit. Travel on the Go --- Take our guides with you through recommended mobile apps that empower you to further customize your vacation plans.
