Travel Secrets The Podcast

Hosted by Travel Secrets The

A luxury travel PR CEO interviews her well-heeled friends and celebrity clients about their personal travel secrets and favorite hidden spots.

The brief

A weekly interview show where a highly-connected travel industry veteran sits down with notable guests from film, fashion, and business. Each episode uncovers specific, personal recommendations—a hidden restaurant, a favorite hotel, a life-changing experience—framed as the guest's 'travel secrets'. The conversations are light, intimate, and focused on extracting actionable tips and exclusive anecdotes.

Unlike typical travel shows, the host's deep personal connections to both the locations and the celebrity guests create a unique, intimate atmosphere. The focus isn't on budget travel or backpacking, but on the exclusive, luxury experiences and hyper-specific recommendations that money can't always buy.

How Travel Secrets The interviews

Tanya Rose's style is warm and encouraging, letting guests speak at length about their passions. She often opens by establishing a guest's connection to a place before asking for specific recommendations, like asking a guest who loves Greece, "Where do you go in Greece?". She probes for details with simple, direct follow-ups and builds rapport by sharing her own extensive travel knowledge. A core part of the format involves discovering the guest's "six Travel Secrets" during the conversation.

The show is interview-based, with host Tanya Rose in conversation with a single guest. Episodes are often published as both full-length conversations and shorter, topical clips. The tone is relaxed and conversational, like listening to two friends share tips over coffee.
