leave with intent, return with clarity

Boutique travel company ACT OF TRAVEL, specialized in creating and designing bespoke travel experiences, launches Solo Retreats today: a local travel concept focused on self-development.

During the journey individual travellers will be staying in one of the 10 specially curated hotel properties in the Netherlands. A key element to the Solo Retreat will be your Coach. They will help you to set realistic intentions before you leave and will be in touch virtually during your trip to keep you focused. Upon return you will evaluate your experience together with the Coach for closure. Travelers will be returning back home with clarity on what the next steps are in life, career or whatever the intentions are.

“2020 was a year of change and had a major impact on many of our lives, causing us to rethink beliefs, societal norms and habits”, according to Raoul Fokké, Chief Travel Designer at the Amsterdam based boutique travel company. “There is so much power in change, you just have to make sure that the moment is leveraged well. That is why we designed the Solo Retreats experience, to help you make decisions in these crucial times we are in, both in your personal or professional life.

Hidden Gems:

Solo Retreats is a sustainable travel experience. Travelers stay close to home and support local hotels, including the Conservatorium Hotel in Amsterdam, Parc Broekhuizen in Leersum and hidden gems such as Maison Haas Hustinx in Maastricht. The trips will have a low environmental impact as it's close to home and will endure for two nights only, making it non-disruptive to your time.

The involved coaches are highly regarded and have different specializations. Serial entrepreneur Sebastiaan Hooft, for example, assists entrepreneurs during their Solo Retreat. Hooft is one of the most influential tech entrepreneurs in the Netherlands and was in the Top 100 Young Self-made Millionaires of business magazine Quote.
