Windy Golden- Owner & Founder

Hello, friends! I’m Windy Golden—Owner and Founder of Key to Adventure Travel Co.®, a full-service concierge travel agency built on passion, purpose, and pixie dust.
 

Before starting this agency, I spent years as an independent travel advisor, helping thousands of families turn their dream vacations into reality. But I knew I wanted to do more than plan magical trips—I wanted to create a space where other passionate travel lovers could grow, thrive, and build businesses they’re proud of.
 

Key to Adventure was born from that vision: a drama-free, highly supportive environment where collaboration is the norm, learning never stops, and success is shared. I now spend my days running the agency—overseeing operations, marketing, recruiting, training, and supporting our amazing team of Adventure Advisors. I’m a big believer in setting high standards, showing up with intention, and leading with empathy and a healthy dose of humor.

I may not book vacations anymore, but I’m still deeply involved in the magic behind them—coaching advisors, fine-tuning systems, and finding new ways to help our team (and clients) flourish.
 

When I’m not immersed in all things travel, you’ll find me spending time with my family, nerding out over Harry Potter, or chasing down whatever new adventure comes next. I’m a proud Hufflepuff, a big kid at heart, and forever obsessed with helping people turn their dreams into real-life memories.
