Hi! I am Bobbie Rae Murphy, owner of Active Travel Pro.
How long have you been doing what you do and how did you find the travel industry?
My passion is working with travelers who love to actively immerse in a destination and who want to avoid the time and hassle of planning a vacation.
I have always felt a deep connection to our planet’s natural beauty and all of its creatures. The world is an incredible playground for us! As a former coach of swimming, diving, soccer, Tae Kwon Do and other sports, motivating people to push through challenges is a passion. I also coached health as a dental hygienist. I truly enjoy being a role model for stepping outside your comfort zone.
One day my world was turned upside down. A serious health diagnosis can help us see what really matters. All at once I saw the places that I had not yet explored. I saw the penguins in Antarctica. I saw the mountains of Patagonia. I saw the Blue-Footed Boobies in Galapagos. And I feared I might NOT see them.
As if it was always meant to be, my blessing came to me in the form of an opportunity to join the travel industry. Going through the chemo-like treatments without success fueled my desire to travel the world; to discover that I was part of something much bigger than myself. Active Travel Pro was born out of a desire to reach the traveler who relates to my sense of urgency to see the world and will benefit the most from my services. Now healthy, I have been successfully and happily advising travelers for nearly 20 years.
So who are your clients exactly?
For what type of traveler will you NOT resonate with?
If you are looking only for the “best deal”, I am not your solution. There is so much more to the travel experience than price! If you simply want the cheapest price, then I would suggest that you look for it from the online travel companies who sell packages, but where personal service is difficult to get. Buyers beware…what looks like a “deal” may have hidden costs.
What solutions do you provide your clients?
I really think you will make a difference in my vacation experience.
What do I need to do to begin our journey?
Check out my trip planning question form by clicking on the “Get Started” button on my website. Once I have received your travel needs questionnaire and we discuss it together in the initial planning session, I will send you an invoice for my planning fee and we will begin the adventure creation process. I am so excited that you have found me and we will be working together!
