Meet Ben Gustafson
CLIA-certified travel advisor, dedicated cruise enthusiast, and your personal guide to the world.
15 years. Six continents. One goal.
I've spent the last fifteen years extensively traveling the world by air, land, and sea — visiting dozens of countries across six continents and circumnavigating the globe by cruise ship. That firsthand experience is the foundation of everything I do for my clients.
I founded Gustafson Travel to share that passion and expertise with people who want a trip that's truly their own. Whether you're a seasoned globetrotter planning your next big voyage or a first-timer imagining your dream cruise, I'll bring the knowledge and the attention to make it happen.
When you work with me, you work directly with me — not a booking algorithm or a call-center agent. I take the time to understand what you actually want from a trip, and I put that understanding into every itinerary I build.
Based in Denver, CO — serving clients across the U.S.
