Co-founder and a travel designer
Erynn Montgomery was born with a passion for purpose and discovery. Her early career took her deep into the heart of South America, where she served as the CEO and President of an international humanitarian organization. This profound, immersive chapter granted her a raw understanding of the continent’s diverse cultures, local communities, and hidden corners.
When she and John married, they officially began dog-earing their passports together. In 2006, the couple founded LANDED, a boutique travel firm specializing in customized, privately guided adventures in South America, Central America, and beyond.
Even with the arrival of their four daughters, the journeys haven’t slowed down. Based in Utah, Erynn balances her focus on ultra-luxury, high-end travel design with an adventurous family spirit.
