Trace Your History.
Travel Your Story.
Heritage travel reimagined —
expertly researched, deeply personal ancestral journeys
tailored just for you.
“There’s something really beautiful about feeling
directly connected to a place you have never been,
but you know the whispers of your past are still there.”
— Kristin Petersen
How It Works
Discover
We begin with in-depth genealogical research into your family line, using trusted academic and historical sources.
Or, bring us your existing research
to work from.
Design
We craft a personalized itinerary
to your ancestral homeland, blending history, culture, and meaning at every turn.
Or, choose from our carefully curated, custom, small group tours.
Journey
You’ll take the same paths as your ancestors: an immersive, emotional experience guided by historical truth
and personal connection.
Not Just Travel —
A Life-Changing Connection
Unlike mass-market heritage tours, Ancestral Wanderlust offers both
deeply personalized journeys and small, curated group experiences.
Whether you’re traveling solo to explore your family’s ancestral village
or joining a guided group tour to uncover shared roots,
each experience is grounded in professional genealogical research,
historical depth, and cultural connection.
Every itinerary is intentional, immersive, and meaningfully designed
to connect you with the places and people who shaped your story.
