My Story
My love for travel started before my two daughters were in elementary school. I wanted to be able to take them to places they read about in books or saw on television. I wanted them to be able to travel to places I was not able to go when I was growing up because my family did not take vacations. As my children were growing up, I was parenting singly (I believe there is no such thing as a "single" parent unless you are an amoeba!) and could not afford a vacation-or so I thought. In October 1993 I decided to become a travel agent and allow families like mine to travel by making payments on their trip until it was paid in full. I will never forget the joy and excitement traveling brought to my children and me! It was also a wonderful feeling to see other people be able to afford to go somewhere they did not think they could, to see places they had only dreamed of visiting. For me, being able to take my family on cruises and land vacations that exposed them to other cultures was priceless. Even now, I feel that same satisfaction when I assist families with booking affordable vacations that they did not think were possible. Of course, we also book clients who can "write the check" for the entire amount of their vacation at one time. But we do not want anyone, who has the desire to travel, not to because they cannot "write the check". That is why my company is based on the belief that our customers' needs are of the utmost importance. We listen and plan according to your desires for the vacation you deserve. Our entire team is committed to meeting your needs. As a result, a large amount of our business is from repeat customers and their referrals. We would welcome the opportunity to earn your trust and deliver you some of the best service in the travel industry. With over 23 years experience, we look forward to working with you to plan the perfect family vacation. To find out how we can be of service to you, please contact us and we will gladly assist you.

Thanks to Ms. Brenda our First family cruise was a huge success! My family was very apprehensive at first.i She is very informative and doesn't mind answering any questions/concerns and does so in a timely manner. Is it too soon to start planning for next Christmas?---Jennifer Hewett-Porter
Mcmillian Travel services is AWESOME!!!! Brenda is so friendly, courteous,fast, and knowledgeable. She made sure we had all necessary information about our cruise and flight before we left our home. She also took care of making sure we had excellent shuttle transportation from the airport to our ship and back to the airport on our departure from the cruise. Brenda also gave us options of insurance plans in case we needed to cancel our trip or an emergency arose. She also surprised us with a happy honeymoon cake waiting in our cabin. Overall I had a positive experience with Mcmillian Travel and would definitely recommend and use their services again. Please feel free to contact me with further questions.....tracy reese on facebook Thanks Brenda. You ROCK!!!! ---Tracy Reese
My wife and I recently returned from a trip to Mexico using BAM 1 Travel (now McMillian Travel). We have used other travel agents before with lack-luster results. Not so with BAM1 Travel. Brenda thought of everything!! Her attention to detail was awesome!! She took care of all the details and our vacation was very memorable! Needless to say, we will continue to use her agency for all of our vacation plans! If you are in the market for a travel agent that will truly take care of all your travel needs, you have found it with Brenda and BAM 1 Travel! ---Chuck Little
Brenda offers excellent customer service and always looks for the best value with excellent accommodations at the same time. I booked a 20th anniversary trip for me and my husband to Las Vegas and it was wonderful we got to see so much stuff. The checking process was easy everywhere we went and the best part about planning this trip was that I paid for it with installments which made it less stressful to pay for.
Thanks Brenda. --- Crystal Rogers

My sister entrusted in me to put a family vacation together in Florida at the last possible minute the week after Easter. I figured well I'll just go through the motion and tell her I could not get it done. But instead I decided to call Brenda at BAM 1 (now McMillian Travel) and the dream began. Her knowledge of what was going on from start to finish, the different ideas she gave us, the reasonable rates we acquired was just part of it. This was really the first time dealing with BAM 1 and now I'm a client for life. I can't thank-you enough BAM 1, looking forward to my next venture. --The Sturdivant's
Brenda is the most creative, trustworthy and well-informed professional I've dealt with. Coupled with attention to detail, entrusting my travel plans with here has never been anything less that perfect.--Vaughn McMillian
Hey Brenda, Thanks SOOOOOO much for the assist. I had a FANTABULOUS time on the Bahamas cruise. It was all you said and more!!!! Can't wait to do it again. Keep up the great job!!!! ---JCB
Brenda, Thank you so very much for helping me and T.J. with our honeymoon plans. You took a lot of headache for me. We had so much fun on our cruise and more than likely wouldn't have without your help and answering all our questions. Thanks so much again. God Bless.--T.J. and Sarah Howell
