Anyone know if you can buy an empty caulking tub/container? The type that
fit into a caulking gun so you can load it with your own caulk or grout. I
know there's always the grout bag option but thought it might be easier if
using a gun. I'm trying to grout travertine without getting grout in the
indentations and all over the face of the tile.

Just a WAG, but if the grout isn't too stiff, how about trying a cake
decorating gun, something like this?

Long ago and far away, I remember using a caulking gun that you loaded
from a can of putty. Ditto with grease guns. How about using the bag
you use to decorate cakes?? Real small tips are available. Disposable
bags too. Any good kitchen store.

Sure, they have these at most concrete supply stores and they
are available from a few other suppliers. They are the larger
size caulk guns, not the small ones.

Here is one that is powered by a drill. I have never used one
like this.

Here is another refillable type:
