We had the good fortune of connecting with Reema Soman and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Reema, what was your thought process behind starting your own business?
I have always loved traveling, and I love being organized and planning every aspect of a vacation. It was a perfect fit for me to be a travel agent and help others with planning his or her own vacations!

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
I love helping families plan every step of the way from finding their dream location to eating at a restaurant that fits their taste. I enjoy organization and planning so my travel agent job is a wonderful and natural fit for me. I started with Magical Travel in 2019 and have learned more about different destinations and cruise lines each year and expanded my business. I started with Disney and Universal and have expanded to multiple countries and cruise lines. It was not easy at first as when I started, the pandemic started a few months later so rebuilding after that was difficult. I have learned to persevere and treat every client and family as if I am planning my family’s own trip. I love helping every step of the way to make sure you or your family has the best vacation together!

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
I love how many areas Houston has to visit. Each neighborhood has a different vibe. Some of my favorite areas are The Woodlands. I love walking all over the area – around the mall, by the water. The hotels there are also so relaxing so I would plan a spa day. Another of my favorites things is to have afternoon tea in the city. I also love trying all different types of cuisine with my family and friends. We have had Cuban, Afghan, Middle Eastern, Indian, and more. I would find us some amazing restaurants that are different than you can find in most areas. I also love the Houston Zoo. I love walking around to see all of the animals.
