River Oaks Travel Agency

Located in Houston, Texas, River Oaks Travel Agency is a boutique luxury travel agency that offers concierge planning for the modern traveler. At River Oaks Travel, our role is to take our client’s loosely defined ideas of what type of trip they would like to have, then work with them to build their perfect vacation or travel experience. We go beyond just taking orders – our goal is to move away from a simple (or single) transaction and to build a lasting travel planning relationship with each one of our clients. These relationships are built on trust – in our travel agent team, in the suppliers and products that we offer, and in our goal of putting clients first every time. Regardless of where you decide to travel, our concierge team is here to deliver added value, time management, unique ideas, peace of mind, destination knowledge, and personal industry contacts to make your experience one-of-a-kind.

We like to say that we specialize in clients and believe that no two vacations should ever be the same, so our focus is always on getting to know you, your travel style, and particular needs. This allows our travel agents to completely customize any type of trip, from honeymoons and destination weddings to multigenerational family vacations and corporate retreats (and everything in between!).

Through our own travels and time in the luxury travel industry, we have discovered plenty of “insider tips” and have developed lasting relationships with partners around the globe. We love to collaborate with these partners to supplement our own knowledge and to create exclusively curated itineraries for our travelers. Whether you’re looking to discover a stylish new hotel in the city, to experience stunning vistas, to taste your way through a country’s cuisine or simply to sit back, relax and rejuvenate, we know all the big names and hidden gems needed to create the perfect trip.

As a member of the prestigious Virtuoso international travel network, our River Oaks Travel Concierge team is also able to provide the best of the best in complimentary upgrades and perks. Our clients enjoy value-adds like complimentary breakfast, hotel credits, spa treatments, shipboard credits, and more.

So how exactly does travel planning with our agency work? As a boutique travel consultancy, we are dedicated to creating customized travel itineraries for our clients. To do this, we utilize a collaborative travel planning process, which allows us to make your travel more personal.

We typically start with an initial consultation, which is really just a conversation to get to know you and what you really want out of your trip. We then work to create some tentative options and pricing for your trip. Once you look over the options together and decide what you do/do not like, we will make any edits or changes that you request, then leverage our network of contacts to make your reservations and give you the best value and amenities. And after you depart for your trip, our team will work behind the scenes to make sure your travel experience is smooth and seamless. Once you return (and are fully rested!) we will debrief together and start thinking about the next trip.
