Bryan Harris is the founder and co-owner of H&K Luxury Travel. With a vision to own a small, service-oriented travel agency, Bryan has worked tirelessly to create a boutique business that focuses on offering exceptional service and masterfully designed vacations for his clients. A graduate from The University of Oklahoma with a bachelor's degree in marketing, Bryan combined his love of travel and marketing to create a boutique agency unlike any other.
As a connoisseur of both boutique business operations and the art of luxury travel, Bryan set out to earn his Certified Travel Associate (CTA) designation early on, and made it a point to train and remain up-to-date with today’s constantly changing technology and travel trends. He believes that there is no substitute for personal experience when it comes to planning quality vacations, and brings this first-hand understanding to the table when arranging travel plans for his clients. Since the very beginning of his career as a travel agent, Bryan has budgeted for his own personal travel, knowing that it leads to invaluable knowledge - a practice that he has instilled within the rest of his team.
Bryan’s personal journeys have taken him to numerous global wonders. He has witnessed some of the world’s most magnificent settings, from the sunset over Mt. Fuji and the desert outback of Los Cabos, to whales breaching the waters off the coast of Kauai and experiencing the Costa Rican rainforest from a bird’s eye view. Bryan has had the opportunity to stay at some of the world’s finest hotels, and through his personal travels, he has learned the true definition of outstanding customer service.
Bryan and his team possess a keen understanding of the art of luxury travel, and are here to help make your next trip the masterpiece you deserve for it to be.
