Life is Better Traveling 

Mary Yohannan

Full Service World Travel and Bucket-list Specialist

Planning your vacation should be as enjoyable as the trip itself. That’s what Mary Yohannan has delivered to travelers since 2009.


Mary is the founder of Life is Better Traveling® and leads a team of advisors who share her standards. Her specialties include Disney vacations through our Authorized Disney Earmarkegency, Europe (our agency was a top-selling Europe agency in 2018 and 2019), cruises, and all-inclusive beach getaways. Every itinerary she builds is tailored to how you like to travel, down to the hotel, the guide, and the dinner reservation.


Our work has been recognized with four Travel Weekly Magellan Awards. We are also a Sapphire Select agency with ALGV and a Top Sales agency with Goway, distinctions reserved for top-performing partners. For you, that means stronger supplier relationships, insider knowledge, and extra help if anything goes wrong.


Don’t just take our word for it. Mary and the Life is Better Traveling team have earned over 1000 five-star reviews from travelers who mention the same things again and again: attention to detail, fast answers, and a trip that felt planned just for them.
