Travel Curiosity Meets Practical Thinking
Warren has spent more than four decades working with technology, systems and complex practical problems - alongside extensive travel for business and pleasure.
That combination shapes the way Kite & Compass approaches travel: curious about the experience, but serious about making the details work.

Warren Milburn
Founder & Independent Travel Advisor
Curious about the world. Serious about the detail.
​
Warren's career has taken him across the UK, Europe, the United States and the Far East, giving him opportunities to experience destinations well beyond the meeting room or hotel.
​
Work might have created the reason to travel, but Warren would use evenings, weekends and extended stays to explore the places around him.
​
From New York and San Francisco to Tokyo, Virginia Beach and more recently Marrakesh, those experiences built a lasting curiosity about people, places and different cultures.
​
A recent journey through Morocco helped turn that curiosity into Kite & Compass Travel.
​
Today Warren combines his enthusiasm for travel with more than four decades of methodical, systems-based thinking.
​
Flights affect transfers. Arrival times affect hotels. Hotel location affects the experience. Activities, booking conditions and transport all connect.
​
Warren likes understanding how those pieces fit together.
​
That's why Kite & Compass Travel is personal by design. You deal directly with the person listening to your ideas, researching your options and helping shape your journey.
Personal Service. Professional Travel Support.
Kite & Compass Travel is personally led by Warren, but doesn't operate in isolation.
Our planning is supported by professional booking systems, established travel suppliers, continuing product education and wider travel-industry resources.
You get the accountability and attention of a small independent business with access to a much broader travel network.
Where a journey requires specialist knowledge outside our current expertise, we'll be open about it and seek additional supplier support or recommend a trusted specialist where appropriate.
