A Message From Our Agency Owner:
Sandra Jackson
Wood Travel has been offering first-class travel planning services and advice since 1983. Our experienced agents are great at finding the lowest fares and rates, helping you secure the best travel deals according to your specific preferences and needs: we do this without sacrificing quality. With our well established industry connections, we’re able to offer unique travel promotions for families and groups that you can’t find anywhere else. ​Sandra has had a love for travel since she was a little girl. Family memories to Europe, Disneyland and Mexico just to name a few destinations, will remain very close to her. She knows the importance of family and spending time with those she loves.
Taking over Wood Travel in the late summer of 2017 has been a dream come true, working hard to give those same experiences to families locally and abroad. Sandra has raised two amazing young adults into thriving and community conscious individuals. She is community conscious and enjoys giving back to others with her time and fundraisers for non-profit. ​

Overall, it’s a solid foundation for credibility and growth in my industry.

Don't be! It does not cost more to book with us than it would be to book on your own.
"How?" you may ask? Our commissions are built in to the same packages you are seeing online. You pay the same going rate and also have the vast knowledge and assistance of an advisor.
We make Travel our business, and we are so very passionate about it!
We would personally like to thank the local community and surrounding areas for all of your support, it is greatly appreciated!!
