Our Story
And Company ProfileHidden Doorways, a KAA Travel Collection discovers, develops, and represents the world’s most unique and unknown destinations and experiences as well as consults on the top travel products globally.
Established in 2002 as Kurtz-Ahlers & Associates, our client-first approach is based on our founder’s formula for success and remains an integral part of our DNA. While this ethos remains at the core of who we are, in 2018, we changed our name to Hidden Doorways-A KAA Travel Collection, to better capture the essence of our mission.
