We believe that a better travel planning process creates more fun and satisfying travel experiences — after all, that's what it's all about!

Instead, we've done the work upfront to help you find what’s right for you, right away. You can use our powerful filtering tools to cut through the clutter, saving time and finding super-relevant recommendations. Plus, you can easily adjust your objectives, and your recommendations will refresh in real time. We’ll even give you suggestions if you’re not sure where to start.
NileGuide provides intuitive planning tools that enable travelers to easily find the most compelling personal travel experiences, build their own customized itinerary, and then download and print their personal guidebook — all for free.
Team
Josh left the management consulting ranks to follow his passion for travel and entrepreneurship by joining Away.com. He soon found himself touching many pieces of the business, from marketing to sales and business development, and helped build Away into the web’s largest travel publisher, a top brand in the adventure travel space, and a successful media business. After an acquisition by Orbitz, Josh held a leadership role in media sales and business development for the Partner Marketing group within Cendant. On a personal level, Josh is an avid traveler who loves the outdoors. When he's not scheming about his next trip to Mongolia or Bolivia, he's taking advantage of Northern California's abundant outdoor adventure opportunities, whether it's snowboarding in Tahoe, mountain biking in Sonoma, hiking in Big Sur or kayaking in Sausalito. Josh is a graduate of Princeton, and tries not to bore his friends with stories from college too often, though he sometimes can’t help himself.
