Who We Are

We are a husband and wife team that both have a passion for travel.  As Tim neared retirement, we started thinking about what the next chapter looked like for us.   We have been lucky to visit incredible destinations together and separately.  Both of us have a love for music and wine but you'll find Tim on the golf course while K-Lee is hitting the tennis courts.  We have both been planning tennis and golf trips for years so decided to use our knowledge to help others.  I am also known for my affinity for bubbles which is how The Bubbly Traveler came to exist.

I have been in the hospitality and event planning industry for over 30 years.  Travel, tennis, and music are of three of my greatest passions.  Combine that with my love for bubbly and The Bubbly Traveler was born!  I have been fortunate to travel all over the world and want to share my knowledge with others.  Our goal is to create experiences that will incorporate what we love and know others will enjoy as well.  When you travel with us we will take care of all the planning and the little details so all you have to is enjoy the destination!

Tim Bailey

I am an avid golfer and absolutely love “live” music.  I have been fortunate in my 40 years in the contract food service business to travel, entertain, and be entertained. This travel has given me the opportunity to visit, play golf, and listen to live music at some of the very best resorts, golf courses, and music venues in the world. It has also given me knowledge of what’s available in those local areas.  The best restaurants, accommodations, nightlife, and “must see” and local attractions. My goal is to make sure you have the very best experience, at an affordable rate, utilizing my expertise and contacts.

What people are saying 

I highly recommend The Bubbly Traveler to plan and book your next tennis trip.  Every detail was taken care of for us.  Lodging, meals, and tennis clinics were all included while leaving the right amount of time for other planned activities or free time to just chill.  My friends and I had a blast and appreciated being able to just show up and have fun. Thank you Bubbly Traveler as we're already looking forward to our next trip!

Dawn-Wild Dunes Resort, Isle of Palms

The Bubbly Traveler is the best way to experience a destination concert! Every detail of the trip is handled, allowing you to fully take in a different city without any travel logistics to worry about. The Bubbly Traveler's love for music and good times is evident in the perfect seats they choose for your group, lodging booked near the venue, pre- and post-show transportation arranged, and even suggestions for local food and drinks to keep the night going long after the last song ends. If you and your friends are looking to see your favorite artist play in a new town, The Bubby Traveler will make it a totally seamless and memorable experience!

Shruti-Arrowhead Stadium, Kansas City

The Bubbly Traveler was an absolutely amazing agency that nailed our trip! All expectations were exceeded by their ability to source multiple rooms for our group for the nights needed in the middle of a music festival.

They took care of every detail that even included our favorite beverages and snacks stocked in our room!

The premium seating at the venues were perfect for our group to still interact  and enjoy concerts. 

Any of our future travel needs for our client entertainment will be booked with The Bubbly Traveler!

Thanks for putting together an unforgettable trip!

Cole-CMA Fest, Nashville

We used The Bubbly Traveler to make arrangements for our annual boys golf trip to the Reynolds Plantation at Lake Oconee in Georgia. The accommodations were fantastic; we stayed at one of the 4 bedroom on-property Club Cottages which was outstanding. They consisted of a single unit split level with beautiful views and a large comfortable balcony deck that was perfect for post round liquid refreshments and cigars.  Also, a full kitchen/dining area with a large comfortable living area made it super easy to enjoy drinks and snacks at our leisure.

The golf courses were all top notch in all areas; condition, layout, service level and overall ambiance with some serious “wow” holes throughout.

The on-property bar/restaurants were also excellent, most had a casual atmosphere and were golfer friendly with a wide variety of food choices. All were quite good and we absolutely enjoyed everything we had.

The Bubbly Traveler knew exactly what we were looking for and came through with flying colors on this trip.  We will definitely utilize their expertise and services for all future getaways.
