Wilcox World Travel and Tours/American Express started in Boone, NC in 1953 as the Herman W Wilcox Travel Agency. It was founded by Herman W. Wilcox and his son Glenn W. Wilcox, Sr. In 1965 Glenn Wilcox, Sr. opened a new headquarters office in Asheville and we became Wilcox Travel Agency, Inc. Also in 1965, Wilcox World Travel and Tours became one of the original 50 American Express Travel Agency Representatives in the world...a relationship we enjoy to this day.

In the 70's the agency grew as we opend two new sales divisions to complement our Corporate Travel and Leisure Travel services. The Group Division was formed to service Pastors, Ministers of Music, or anyone who had a following. These services assisted our Tour Hosts with sales material, tour pre-trip operations, and tour trip operations. The Missions Divisions was formed to assist our missionary organizations, Humanitarian Aid organizations and mission volunteers with travel services assisting them with discounted air fares, passport and visa services, luggage pick up and delivery services, etc. The companies marketing name changed from Wilcox Travel Agency to Wilcox World Travel and Tours to better describe the various services the company manages.

The tremendous buying power of the American Express Network of 1,700 plus office around the world and our experience, resources and influence allow you to choose from a wide selection of travel programs designed to provide the best possible value for your travel needs.

Along with the villagers and people from all corners of the world, you'll experience an ancient, historical reenactment of the life of Jesus Christ.
