Sam Highley Named Condé Nast Top Travel Specialist Five Years in a Row

We are honored to announce that All Roads North’s Founder Sam Highley has been recognized as one of the world’s leading travel experts for the fifth consecutive year as one of Condé Nast Traveler’s Top Travel Specialists 2025. Individuals are chosen by Condé Nast Traveler’s editors based on their combination of specialized knowledge, travel experience, local connections, excellence in customer service, and overall value.

“We specialize in the Art of the Road Trip. From meticulously designed routes and individually crafted journey guides to personal round-the-clock concierge service, we’ve reimagined the road trip to provide our clients with one-of-a-kind journeys that they’ll never forget. Our trips put the emphasis on the journey as a whole, and the people and places you’ll encounter, rather than starting with five star hotels and drawing a straight line between them to create a generic “Best of X, Y, or Z State’ itinerary. Each road trip we design is different from the last but sample itineraries include: ‘Land to Sea in Sonoma and Mendocino’, ‘Fall’s Magic Window: Phoenix to San Francisco’, ‘Back to the Future in New Mexico’, or ‘The Wilds of West Texas: A Private Ranch Road Trip’.”

Commenting on his selection, Sam added: “Since founding All Roads North our sole focus has been on unearthing the very best of the United States for our clients and connecting them to the people and places that reveal the true essence of this country in a way I didn’t see other travel companies doing. To be recognized by such a highly regarded publication and to sit alongside some of the best in the business is a fantastic honor.
