Virginia Poynor is a luxury travel advisor based in Birmingham, Alabama. Her love of travel started young – from a family trip to the Galápagos to exploring Europe as a teenager. That curiosity deepened during a semester studying French in Paris, where every weekend was a new country. Her travels have since taken her to five continents and counting.
Virginia studied information systems and international business at the University of Georgia, built a career in cybersecurity consulting in Austin, Texas, and spent over two years growing Virginia Poynor Travel alongside her cybersecurity career before making the leap into travel full-time. Virginia Poynor Travel was created to share that same love of the world with her clients, curating meaningful and unforgettable travel adventures.

Virginia is extremely communicative, proactive, and thoughtful. She made the booking process seamless and easy as well. We never would have found this hotel without her expert recommendations, and can’t wait to use her services again for our next trip!

Virginia's Testimonials
Virginia is my first contact whenever I figure out there’s an opportunity to spend a couple of days exploring a new town between my husband’s and my work schedules. She is so good at sending options and recs within our budget, and she is so nice! Thank you Virginia! You made our summer in Europe truly so wonderful.

Virginia's Testimonials
Such a breeze! We told Virginia that we wanted a hotel to stay in that would make traveling out of London the next day easy. She found us such a great option, and it was even cuter and more luxurious than we expected! We were given a complimentary drink and a room upgrade through booking with Virginia. She truly made the end of our trip so worthwhile.
Virginia went above and beyond by not only finding us the most perfect resort on Key West, but also checking in and providing additional references during our stay. She did a great job of working with our budget and making the reservation and search process very hands-free during a busy work season. The trip was flawless, and I literally wouldn’t change a thing!
