Ideas, concepts and cultures come to life when experienced firsthand. For this reason, Querencia created Q Travel, a luxury travel experience for its members that encourages them to explore both the storied cobblestone and the fast-paced symphony of Mexican destinations. Q Travelers taste the flavors, absorb the history and experience art and life within comprehensively curated, five-star premium travel experiences.
Each year, Querencia’s Q Travel team selects several two-to-five-day travel experiences to Mexico’s most idyllic destinations. Experiences range from wine tasting in Mexico’s Valle de Guadalupe to sightseeing the majestic Copper Canyon in Chihuahua to wandering through the artful enclave of San Miguel de Allende. In 2020, the Q Travel group will be visiting Guadalajara and Oaxaca and glamping just east of San Jose del Cabo.
As Mexico’s second largest city, Guadalajara is a unique space where both tradition and modernity coexist. Hailed as a center of art and design, Guadalajara is located near small artisan towns like Tlaquepaque where the preservation of culture and tradition is evident. The Q Travel excursion leads members throughout the city and then through the rolling agave fields via train where they will visit ancient tequila grounds.
In the spring, Q Travel will unite with Querencia members to tour one of the most beautiful states in Mexico, Oaxaca. There, Querencia members will visit ancient ruins and pyramids and enjoy authentic cuisine in a region that is known for its vast array of indigenous people and cultures.
Finally, Q Travel has planned an overnight glamping excursion at an oceanfront resort in Baja. Relax, recharge and unplug with the backdrop of the lapping waves, the sand at your feet and the calming breeze of the palm trees. Find adventure or tranquility in a Baja beach town known for windsurfing and fabulous fish tacos.
Querencia is an active and vibrant community combining outdoor recreation, a zest for life and lifelong learning and travel in an environment known for its dramatic and inspiring beauty. The Querencia Travel program was created to support Querencia members’ sense of community and also to celebrate Mexico’s aesthetic with artistic and adventurous opportunities. Q Travel excites the senses, energizes the mind and showcases the endless beauty found in Mexico.
