About Travel by B & T
Travel by B & T is a Ridgeway, Virginia-based travel agency focused on practical, well-planned travel: cruises, all-inclusive resorts, Europe itineraries, and group trips — with real support before, during, and after.
Local Roots, Global Itineraries
We live and work in this community, serving clients from Ridgeway, Martinsville, Henry County, and beyond. When you book with Travel by B & T, you know exactly who you’re working with — not just a call center somewhere with a ticket number.
Our goal is simple: help you pick the right trip at the right time, make the logistics manageable, and be available when you have questions. No hype, no pressure, no hidden agendas.
