About Goldrush Getaways
For more than 30 years, Goldrush Getaways has been helping travelers explore the world while supporting independent travel advisors in building successful businesses of their own.
Founded in Northern California, Goldrush Getaways is a family-owned host travel agency headquartered in Citrus Heights, with additional offices in San Jose and Rancho Cucamonga. What began as a commitment to personalized service has grown into one of the nation’s leading host agencies, supporting a network of dedicated travel advisors across the country.
At Goldrush Getaways, we believe there is a critical gap in today’s travel industry—one that online booking engines and internet travel agencies simply cannot fill. We hear it from travelers every day: when it comes to planning meaningful vacations, expert guidance and exceptional customer service still matter.
Travel is more than a reservation number or a confirmation email. It is an investment in your well-being, your relationships, and your quality of life. In a world where schedules are packed with work commitments, family obligations, and endless responsibilities, taking time to recharge and experience something new is more important than ever.
That is why our team is committed to delivering Customer Service Excellence at every stage of the travel journey. From the initial planning process to your return home, our travel advisors are dedicated to providing personalized recommendations, expert advice, and support you can count on. This commitment to service has earned Goldrush Getaways numerous awards and recognition throughout the travel industry.
Goldrush Getaways is proudly affiliated with leading travel suppliers and vendors around the world, allowing our advisors to create experiences for virtually every type of traveler. Whether you’re dreaming of a relaxing beach getaway, an unforgettable cruise, a guided tour, a luxury escape, or a complex custom itinerary, our team has the resources and expertise to bring your vision to life.
Through ongoing education, strong industry partnerships, and a passion for travel, our advisors help clients navigate an ever-changing travel landscape with confidence.
