Tour Group Planners, LLC started out back in the 70's as the Group Department at locally, family-owned Franklin Travel. After 9/11, Franklin Travel was sold to Rio Grande Travel Centers, Inc of Albuquerque, NM. In 2007, the former Franklin Travel owner formed a new company specializing in group travel. Becky Luka, who previously worked for Franklin Travel, purchased the group business in 2011.
Today Tour Group Planners is an independent contractor with Rio Grande Travel, as our host agency.
We are here for you from the start of your trip planning, throughout your travel and even once you return home.
When traveling on one of our groups, we depart locally with a leader who accompanies the group to guide them through the airport and get them to their destination stress free. Traveling with a group provides an opportunity to build new friendships with other travelers - it's always fun to travel with friends!
Contact us today for all of your travel and tour needs! Sightseeing tours, cruises, rail excursions and much more!
