About Farholm
A travel agency that works the way you’d want one to.
Farholm takes its name from Old Norse — “far” meaning distant, “holm” meaning a small island. It’s the place just over the horizon. Discover your own story.
Built on a simple belief
Farholm was built on a simple belief: everyone deserves a well-planned trip, not just those with unlimited budgets. We’re a full-service travel agency that brings the same care and attention to a family beach vacation as we do to a luxury cruise through the Greek Islands.
We’re not a booking engine, and we’re not a relic from another era. We’re a modern travel agency run by a real person who gets to know how you like to travel, what matters to you, and what will make your trip feel right. That means honest recommendations, transparent pricing, and support that doesn’t disappear after you’ve paid.
Based in Pennsylvania and working with clients across the US, Farholm is an accredited travel agency with industry memberships and supplier partnerships that give our clients access to better rates, added perks, and priority support.
The person behind Farholm
Every recommendation comes from somewhere
Farholm is run by Jake, who has traveled to 42 countries across all seven continents and brings firsthand experience to every recommendation. He’s sailed a few dozen ships, from mainstream Caribbean lines to ultra-luxury voyages, and knows from experience which cabins, decks, and itineraries are worth your money. He’s flown with carriers across every major airline alliance and knows the ins and outs of loyalty programs, upgrade strategies, and complex routing. Whether you’re planning a romantic getaway, a family holiday, or an adults-only escape, Jake has been there and can help you make the right choices.
What makes us different
Three things we won’t compromise on
A real person, not a search engine
When you work with Farholm, you talk to someone who knows your trip, remembers your preferences, and picks up the phone when something goes wrong.
Honest about what’s worth it
We’ll tell you when the upgrade isn’t worth the price, when a different property is a better fit, or when booking direct actually makes more sense. Our goal is the right trip, not the biggest booking.
No trip too small
You don’t need a five-figure budget to use a travel agent. We help with everything from quick weekend trips to once-in-a-lifetime vacations.
Trust & credentials
Accredited, vetted, accountable
Farholm is accredited by IATA (International Air Transport Association) and is a member of CLIA (Cruise Lines International Association). These aren’t just logos on a page — they mean we meet strict industry standards for professionalism, financial accountability, and client protection. When you book through Farholm, you’re working with a vetted and accredited agency.
