About Latitude & Leisure

Thoughtful trips for those who live boldly and travel with purpose.

About Us


We believe travel should be both intentional and indulgent—thoughtfully planned, beautifully executed, and entirely your own. Rooted in experience and elevated with care, we specialize in tailored travel planning that delivers seamless getaways across the globe. From curated cruises and all-inclusive retreats to luxurious escapes and one-of-a-kind adventures, we craft journeys as unique as the travelers who take them.


Our clients value time well spent—and so do we. That’s why we handle every detail, ensuring your experience feels effortless from start to finish. With an eye for the extraordinary and a passion for meaningful moments, we design trips that linger long after they end.

And when we’re not planning travel? You’ll find us exploring the world with our Latitude Buddies—our playful travel mascots who pop into our blog and social feed with snapshots, stories, and plenty of charm. From Flip’s urban escapades to Lulu’s sunny escapes, they remind us that even the most elegant journeys should leave room for joy.


Your next great escape is calling. Let’s plan it—your way.

Your Travel Designers

Jomo Raymond, co-founder and travel advisor at Latitude & Leisure

With over 40 years of service and support to the U.S. Navy, I’ve had the rare opportunity to explore the world through a distinctly global lens. My military and contracting career took me across continents—offering not just travel, but deep, immersive experiences in cultures far beyond the typical tourist path.


I bring that perspective to every itinerary I help craft. Whether you're chasing adventure, reconnecting with family, or seeking a destination that feels worlds away, I’m here to help you travel with confidence, clarity, and a sense of purpose.

With decades of business travel and personal exploration, I’ve visited over 50 countries and most U.S. states, gaining firsthand knowledge of diverse cultures, cuisines, and destinations. Growing up in Alaska and living in Hawaii, California, and Japan shaped my unique perspective on travel, while my career opened doors to global adventures. 


I channel my passion for travel into helping others craft seamless, personalized journeys. Whether it’s a luxurious retreat, a family getaway, or a one-of-a-kind itinerary, I’m here to ensure every detail is thoughtfully planned and beautifully executed.

Travel Advisor Questions

  • Why use a travel advisor?

    We get it—before becoming travel advisors, we did the same. We assumed it was easier, cheaper, and more flexible to do it all ourselves. But here’s what we didn’t realize:

    • The cost of a travel advisor is already baked into most bookings—whether you use one or not.
    • Advisors have access to everything the general public can see—and a whole lot more. That includes special rates, upgrades, added perks, and exclusive inventory.
    • We’re watching prices even after you book. On one trip to Cancun, our itinerary was re-priced twice, saving us nearly $1,000 on a week-long vacation.

    Now that we know how it really works, we’d never do it the old way again. Travel advisors don’t just book trips—we advocate for your time, your budget, and your experience.

  • What does it cost?

    For most trips, our services are already covered by the travel supplier—meaning there's no extra cost to you. That’s one of the biggest surprises for new clients: the commission is built into nearly every hotel, cruise, or tour you book, whether you use a travel advisor or not. For more complex or custom itineraries, we may charge a planning fee, which we’ll always discuss transparently upfront. No surprises—just expert guidance, curated options, and support every step of the way.

  • How involved will I be?

    That depends on where you’re going and how customized your trip will be. We’ll work closely with you to understand what you’re looking for—your pace, your preferences, and your priorities—and then craft something that truly fits. With access to nearly 300 vetted travel partners, we’ll make sure your itinerary isn’t just good on paper, but right for you. Whether it’s a quick getaway or a multi-country journey, we’ll guide the process at your speed and keep it as seamless as possible.
