ABOUT ME

My name is Stephanie Benton, but everyone knows me simply as Stevi. 

I've grown up with a map in my hand. From early on, my parents would always let me explore. Back then it was a map in the back seat of a car, today it is a wall-to-wall map that I keep in my hallway. In it, more than 30 pins to represent all of the countries that I've been to. My wife and I try to never visit the same country more than once. We only have two continents left: Africa and Oceania. We hope to have completed our around the continents tour and stepped foot in each continent by mid- 2019. 

I've devoted my life to traveling, and planes. Since 2005, I've worked in many capacities in the air travel industry, and 9 years ago I became an air traffic controller. But I also love the open seas. I've cruised with most of the major cruise companies and have visited countless domestic and international airports. I also know a thing or too about ports, and train stations and even a bus here and there. 

My wife and I are so crazy about traveling that we booked our honeymoon before we booked our wedding... #priorities. 

I'm here to make sure that you have the best time on your vacation. Big or small, close or far away from home. There is nothing better than getting away and unplugging from the hectic world we live in. 

I strive to make every single one of my client's trips something they will remember for a lifetime to come. 

When I'm not traveling, I'm at home with my 2 beagles, Tyson & Bailey and my cat, Addie. All rescues, each one crazier and more lovable than the other. 

I hope to be able to get you to where you want to go on your next getaway.

ABOUT BTI, LLC

BTI grew very organically. I've always loved to travel and all those who know me started to come to me for advice. What started as watercooler talk at work, and sharing tips and advice through Facebook or text messages blossomed into a successful travel agency.

One thing I noticed from all my friends is that they always asked me "how can you afford these trips." It wasn't that I was breaking the bank every time I traveled. I was just doing it in a smart way. 

I love to be able to share my passion for travel and for the world with those around me and my community. I truly believe that the more we travel, the more we get to know ourselves. 

No matter how small your budget, I promise I will work my hardest to try and get you as close to your dream vacation as I can get. 

2 tenets are front and center at BTI travel: I will always be honest with you about what I can and cannot do, or what you should book and shouldn't book and I will never try to upsell a vacation just to make a profit. 

BTI, LLC is a small business, but our passion for traveling is very large.

Give us a shot. If you aren't satisfied, we will work with you to make things right, every time. 

Come travel with us!
