Welcome to the

Jersey City Travel Club

    Membership allows you to book our trips, exclusively for the JC Travel club, and planned by a professional travel agent. We host at least 4 trips each year!

  • Membership in our forum

    Joining a travel club on AMELIA means you also get access to our private community forum where you can chat all things travel with people just like you- people who care about travel! We also host several travel related webinars + meet ups.

  • Subscription to AMELIA Magazine

    AMELIA’s e-magazine publishes several articles each month- from Travels with Ollie (the dog) to Luxury Hotel Reviews, your membership includes free access to our paywalled publication.

“In the end, we only regret the chances we didn’t take, the friends we didn’t meet, and the adventures we didn’t share.”

About Your Host

The Jersey City Travel Club is hosted by Heather Waibel. Heather has lived in Jersey City since 2015 and is an avid traveler- she’s been to over 50 countries, and to all 7 continents.

Why did Heather decide to host this club?

“I believe that group travel is an amazing way to make friends. It’s a trial by fire- in a good way! You will learn a ton about yourself, and you will make deep and fast bonds. Nothing bonds people like traveling together.”

FAQs

  • No! We’re open to any and everyone. We believe you can not only learn a lot from travel, but also from the people you travel with. Occasionally, we may host trips aimed at a sub-section of our membership.

  • Typically less than $4,000 per person. Some will cost a lot less (long weekends, cruises, etc…). We also offer the option to have a roommate, which reduces costs further.

  • We do not host trips that are less than 4-star (aka “premium”). Some trips will be luxury. We are not a camping or budget travel group.

  • Membership has its benefits! Joining gets you free membership to the AMELIA luxury travel forum ($90/year value), and AMELIA Magazine ($50/year value). As a member, you will also get exclusive discounts off of trips as well as exclusive pre-booking periods (our trips can sell out!). Finally, we host local meetup events for members throughout the year, such as local dinners, US Open meet-ups, etc…

  • AMELIA is founded by experienced entrepreneurs based in the US and backed by investors such as Brian Kelly (aka founder of The Points Guy). We have been booking travel for celebs and influencers since 2022.

  • No. If a flight is needed, we elect to allow you to book your own flights. People have specific airlines/airports/miles/loyalty clubs etc… that they prefer to use, so we leave that to you. Our packages include accommodations, activities and some meals. All inclusions/exclusions will be clearly indicated on the trip page.

  • You can, but our pricing includes accommodations already, so that would be silly!

  • Email us at contact@gowithamelia.com. We can accommodate a variety of special needs, depending on the trip specifics.

  • No. whether you lived in Jersey City once-upon-a-time, or you’re located in Hoboken or New York City… or someplace else, you may join our group. We do not police the membership by geography, however, we encourage “locals” to join in the interest of making friends!
