Led by a registered nurse
Medical experience informs every companion plan, ensuring travelers with health needs receive informed, attentive support throughout their journey.
About us
Compassionate care meets world-class travel expertise
Travel Helpers was founded on a simple belief: everyone should be able to travel — for medical care, business, family, or the trip of a lifetime.
Cyndi Glidewell
BSN, BS, Author, "The Red Hat Society Travel Guide", Certified Travel Advisor
Don't let getting there keep you from going. Travel Helpers provides personalized travel services — from high-discretion executive concierge coordination for busy professionals, to compassionate companion support for seniors, families, and travelers with medical or mobility needs.
Cyndi brings a rare combination of clinical expertise and business acumen to the world of travel. As a Registered Nurse with a BSN and MBA, she understands what it means to truly care for another person — and she channels that into every trip she plans and every client she accompanies.
As a former business executive herself, Cyndi has flown over 3 million miles and has experienced personally the trials, tribulations, and joys of executive travel. Her deep aviation roots include working for American Airlines as both a gate agent and ticket counter agent before deciding to come out of retirement to launch Travel Helpers.
Recent trips have taken us on a Royal Caribbean cruise through the Eastern Caribbean, to Las Vegas with an 88-year-old client and his son, and on Norwegian Cruise Line through the Greek isles. Every journey reinforces why we do this work: travel is one of life's greatest gifts, and no one should be denied it simply because logistics feel overwhelming.
Whether you are a corporate executive who needs a seamless, discreet itinerary or a family planning a once-in-a-lifetime trip for an aging parent, Travel Helpers is your trusted partner from planning through the final mile.
