I was introduced to the world of travel at a very young age. I was 9 years old my parents booked a cruise sailing from San Francisco to Nassau Bahamas. The cruise took us through the Panama Canal on a ship named the Canberra. It was the biggest ship that I had ever seen. We embarked in San Francisco, sailed to the Mexican Rivera where I saw the Cliff Divers of Acapulco, the same that I saw on the sports show The Wide World of Sports. Then it was on to our next port of call Panama City. This was the first time I have been close to the equator. I thought everything was going to be upside-down. The next day we were to transcend through the Panama Canal. I never saw anything so amazing. This was something that I will never forget. It was an incredible trip and I can tell you all about it like it was yesterday. That’s when I knew I was bitten by the travel bug. 

I have over 2 decades in the Travel Industry. Over 17 years of Airline experience, 3 years of experience with a major Corporate Travel Agency as a VIP Travel Agent, and I have owned two travel agencies prior to joining Travel Leaders.

I am very excited to introduce you to Mark 1 Travel. We are a full-service travel agency, and we want to be Your #1 Choice for all your travel needs.
