About

Inspired Citizen

A boutique travel platform for the world’s most discerning travelers
founded in New York City, with footprints in Miami, Brazil, and South Africa.

Who we are

Inspired Citizen is a travel firm built by people who actually travel. Founded by Anthony Berklich after more than a hundred countries on the ground — and a career in travel journalism that earned him a Columbia degree, a Golden Pen, regular appearances on industry conference stages, and bylines in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post, AFAR, and The Boston Globe — we design trips with the precision of a private office and the discretion of a friend.

Behind every itinerary sits a hand-built network across hospitality, transport, and culture — doors that don’t open through any other channel. What started in corporate travel now works the same way for leisure, with a team small enough that members get the same person, every trip, every time.

Membership

A closer fit, by design.

Anyone can plan a single journey with us — and many do. Membership works differently. It pulls you into a smaller circle: a community of like-minded travelers, an ecosystem of trusted relationships, and a level of access that doesn’t open to the general public.

It’s designed for a specific kind of person — one whose lifestyle, ambitions, and expectations already align with the world we operate in. Membership is by invitation and inquiry.
