About Us
The Amaya Travel Team
At Amaya Travel we believe that travel has the power to transform lives. That's why we are committed to creating meaningful and authentic travel experiences that connect our clients with the world and each other. As experienced world travelers, the Amaya Travel team is always searching for new ways to surprise their culture-craving clients.
Amaya Travel was founded by an Air Force veteran and her daughter, an endlessly curious preschooler. After spending more time at work than at home, I came to understand the importance of sharing life experiences with loved ones. This is where Amaya Travel comes in - it was founded out of love to spread the joy of traveling to others. It's amazing how going to new places can change your perspective and open up your mind to new ideas. With this in mind, we strive to create genuine and meaningful travel experiences that help people connect with the world and with each other. It has been such a fulfilling experience to see people connect across cultures to build life-long memories.
We're passionate about travel and we're here to help you every step of the way. With our years of experience and extensive travels, we're excited to provide you with the best recommendations and advice, whether you're a seasoned traveler or a first-time explorer. And if you're looking for kid-approved travel ideas, we have plenty of those too!
Justine, Founder
I founded Amaya Travel with one simple belief: exceptional travel begins long before you ever board the plane.
After retiring from the U.S. Air Force, I built my agency around the same principles that guided my military career—preparation, attention to detail, and unwavering commitment to the people who trust me. Every itinerary is thoughtfully designed, every recommendation is carefully vetted, and every client receives the same level of care I would expect for my own family.
As a luxury travel advisor affiliated with Virtuoso, I combine exclusive industry partnerships with firsthand research and trusted global relationships to create journeys that are as seamless as they are memorable. Whether I'm arranging a milestone celebration, a multi-generational family vacation, or a once-in-a-lifetime adventure, my role extends far beyond making reservations. I'm your advocate, your resource, and your partner before, during, and after every trip.
At Amaya Travel, luxury isn't about excess—it's about having every detail handled so you can focus on what matters most: creating unforgettable memories with the people you love.
Jessica, Travel Advisor
Inclusivity isn't a buzzword—it's the foundation of your itinerary.
For the LGBTQIA+ community, true luxury means traveling without a second thought. It means stepping off the plane and knowing you can be unapologetically you. Whether you’re a solo traveler chasing a new adventure, a couple on a fiercely romantic honeymoon, or a modern family taking the trip of a lifetime, you deserve to feel seen, celebrated, and thoughtfully cared for every step of the way.
Vacations should be flawlessly carefree, yet too many queer travelers have to worry about whether a destination will truly welcome them. That peace of mind should be a given, not an upgrade! Your safety, comfort, and VIP status are top of mind for every trip I design. I leverage my deep connections with inclusive suppliers and vetted in-destination partners to make queer travel absolutely effortless. You can travel the globe knowing I have your back the entire way—from our complimentary consultation to the moment you arrive safely home.
Whether you want to lounge at a fabulously inclusive resort or need expert guidance on navigating complex global destinations with confidence, I'm here to make it happen.
