Martin Travel was founded in 1978 in Salem, Virginia, by Dr. Tom Martin, then Athletic Director at Roanoke College. Martin Travel was established strictly for business travel planning but soon added cruises and other leisure travel to its services. It has since developed into the largest supplier of leisure travel booking and planning in western Virginia. With offices in Roanoke, Martinsville and Blacksburg, Martin Travel continues to be the leading business travel firm in the area. We are also western Virginia’s only Virtuoso agency. Virtuoso is the leading global network of agencies specializing in luxury and experiential travel. Virtuoso agencies partner with over 1,800 of the world’s best companies such as hotels, cruise lines, tour operators, and more. Virtuoso advisors, such as the ones you’ll find at Martin Travel, use their personal connections and firsthand expertise to craft bespoke trips for clients, including unique experiences, special values, complimentary perks, VIP treatment and rare access.
