My Story
I received my first passport stamp before I was two, and since then, I’ve traveled to over 80 countries and called 11 of them home—Sri Lanka, the USA, South Korea, Canada, Germany, Spain, France, New Zealand, Australia, UK, and Portugal. This global upbringing has given me a unique perspective on how transformative travel can be when you truly connect with a place and its people. Having experienced life through such a diverse cultural lens, I’m passionate about creating those same meaningful connections for others—through immersive experiences, local cuisine, authentic friendships, and stories that go beyond the guidebooks. My attention to detail, honed through years of navigating different cultures and customs, ensures every aspect of your journey is thoughtfully planned.
My Travel Style
Travel allows us to feel more connected to the world, especially when we can immerse ourselves with locals and experience destinations through their lens—not just the tourist spots. Some of my best travel experiences have been visiting old friends in their home countries, where authentic connections transform ordinary trips into extraordinary journeys. I encourage discovering a place through books and films before visiting—it adds depth and context to every experience. While I prefer seeking out local, boutique properties that reflect a destination’s character, there’s always a place for larger global brands when they serve your travel goals. I’m also passionate about giving back, and a percentage of my revenue goes to global social impact organizations. Together, we’ll craft travel experiences that truly connect you to the world and create memories that last a lifetime.

Joseph provided excellent service and was very conscientious in suggesting rooms that met the specific needs of our family.
As a family of three wishing to stay together in one room, options can be limited in Iceland (many rooms are max two people). He's a great listener who really works hard to provide tailored suggestions to match the interests and budgets of his clients.
Joseph provided multiple options for hotels around the Golden Circle, including a range of price points. In the end, we decided to splurge on this hotel, but had lots of other great (and more affordable) options to pick from based on his suggestions.
We were extremely happy with the service provided by Joseph and would definitely book with him again!

We couldn't have made this trip happen without Joseph's support. There was a lot up in the air before the trip, including which Greek islands specifically we wanted to visit, how long the total trip would be, and budget. From the first call, Joseph rolled with it. He gave excellent counsel that helped us shape up the entire trip. And then throughout the planning experience, Joseph was always ahead of the curve. He'd flag things we hadn't thought of, ensure we were prepared for everything that might come up in our travels. He handled all of the logistics of inter-island travel, corresponded with the hotels on our behalf, and found some really excellent experiences for us to participate in. And on top of all of that, he was a pleasure to work with. Always communicative, quick to respond, helpful and friendly. He really went above and beyond in all aspects, we'd absolutely work with Joseph again for our next trip!

Joseph Pinto and his Agency could not have been better. His communication, care, follow up and availability when and as needed was above and beyond. We highly recommend Joe and his agency Fora Travel for any future travel needs.
