BE A TRAVELEYES SIGHTED GUIDE!
Step out from behind the camera, get hands-on with your surroundings, and spend time fully taking in the sights using all your senses!
Our group holidays work with a twist... half the group are vision impaired (VI) and the other half are sighted. Sighted travellers guide and describe the world for travellers with sight loss and, in return, receive a significant reduction in price!
Most importantly:
- You don't need to have any guiding experience.
- You don't need to be a wordsmith to describe what you see.
- You can join any trip as a solo adventurer and we'll pair you up with a VI traveller.
- Each day you swap partners so you get to meet the whole group!
Most of our sighted travellers have never met a blind person before and are solo adventurers looking to travel with purpose.
Worried about guiding? We give you all the information you need and when in doubt, just ask your companion how they would best like to be guided.
We invite you to join us as a sighted traveller for a more meaningful travel experience. A Traveleyes trip will open up a whole new world to you!

From our founder Amar Latif ...
I had great fun surprising the first #Traveleyes group out in beautiful #Andalucia for their final few days in #Seville and #Cadiz! It was heartwarming to catch up with loyal travellers and old friends, as well as meet some wonderful new people from across the globe. So many friendships are made on these trips and seeing everyone enjoying themselves really reinforced my passion for connecting blind and sighted people together to share great adventures!
I captured a few moments on video. Check them out below. Now where's that bottle of sherry...

It's never too late to say Happy New Year! (we're still in early Jan after all!).
We hope you're all looking forward to what 2024 might bring... and we especially hope it will bring a fabulous Traveleyes holiday into your plans now that we're travelling again.
Since we launched on 12th December 2023 the response we've had has been amazing. Bookings have gone through the roof! It's so wonderful to see everyone wanting to come back and travel and we're so excited to see old friends again as well as welcome new travellers to the Traveleyes experience. That's what life's all about... connecting, sharing, engaging!
It's great to have something to look forward to, especially when the weather's been so unforgiving for those in the northern hemisphere... Sunshine here we come! ☀️😎
