Our Team

Astrid Clements | Founder & CEO

Astrid Clements is a spirited, accomplished, and lively woman with a passion for travel.

She calls Baton Rouge, Louisiana her home, but she’s spent much of her adult life traveling the globe in search of authentic travel experiences. Throughout the years she’s developed a signature travel style - one that is exciting, enriching, and luxurious, yet surprisingly affordable. A seemingly impossible feat, Astrid began to share her travel secrets and tips on the Astrid Solo Travel Advisor website and blog, astridtravel.com, to show others how they could accomplish the same thing in their own travels.

Realizing there were so many others who shared her appreciation for affordable luxury travel, Astrid decided to create a travel club designed to bring these like-minded individuals together. Thus, the AstridTravel Club (ATC) was founded in 2019.

All trips offered by the AstridTravel Club are either hand-crafted by the travel aficionado herself, or have received the Astrid stamp of approval, ensuring that any trip you take with the ATC is exciting, enriching, luxurious, and affordable.
