A: Our company has outgrown our original name Beyond Times Square, and American Stories Travel reflects our expanding vision and evolving destinations. As we continue to thrive and reach new heights, we aim to be one of the premier luxury destination management companies (DMCs) and tour operators in the United States.

While our name has changed, our commitment to delivering exceptional service remains the same. American Stories Travel represents not just where we go, but how we craft immersive, meaningful travel experiences—ensuring every journey is a story worth telling.

A: We chose American Stories Travel because it embodies the essence of what we do—curating immersive travel experiences that allow our guests to explore the rich stories, history, and culture of the United States, and helping them create their own stories that will be told for generations. 

Every journey tells a story, from iconic landmarks to hidden gems, from history and culture to culinary and adventure. Our name reflects our passion for turning each trip into a personal narrative, where travelers don’t just visit a destination—they experience its stories firsthand and create their own. 

As we continue to expand beyond our origins, American Stories Travel captures both our growing footprint and our commitment to creating journeys that resonate long after the trip has ended. Our name may be new, but our dedication to exceptional service, personalized experiences, and seamless luxury travel remains unchanged. 

A: Not at all. American Stories Travel has long been known as the New York City expert in the luxury travel industry, and that expertise remains at the heart of what we do. While we are expanding to offer our signature high-touch experiences in additional destinations, New York City continues to be our flagship location, where we offer an unmatched level of luxury travel experiences. 

Our expansion allows us to bring the same high level of expertise, service, and storytelling that we are known for in NYC to even more destinations, but our commitment to providing the most immersive, luxury travel experiences in New York City remains as strong as ever. 

A: Yes, as we expand our destination offerings, we will also be broadening our marketing efforts to reach new regions and travel markets. While New York City remains a cornerstone of our brand, we are actively increasing our presence in destinations like Washington D.C., Boston, Philadelphia, Charleston, Savannah, New Orleans, Nashville, and beyond. 

Our marketing strategy will highlight the same tailor-made luxury experiences, immersive storytelling, and high-touch service that we are known for, while showcasing the unique travel opportunities in our expanded destinations. We will continue to collaborate with travel advisors, consortia, DMOs, and partners to introduce these new offerings and ensure a seamless transition for those looking to explore beyond our traditional markets.
