Leigh Philley Taylor brings a love of discovery and a personal touch to every trip she plans. A travel advisor with Magnolia Travel Group, she believes travel is one of life’s greatest joys-a chance to explore new places, connect with people, and make memories that last long after the journey ends.
Originally from Morehead, Kentucky, Leigh now calls Jackson, Mississippi, home. After a 38-year career in banking, she followed her passion for travel into a new chapter as a travel advisor. Her attention to detail and care for her clients help her create trips tailored to their interests and dreams.
Leigh’s love of travel began in 1995, when she visited Great Britain with her father and a group of college students. That experience sparked a lifelong curiosity that has taken her to 27 countries. She has a particular fondness for cruising and exploring Europe, including Scandinavia and Great Britain.
Leigh especially loves working with new travelers, guiding them through the planning process and sharing in the excitement of their first adventures. Her hope is that her clients will catch the travel bug and return home eager to see more of the world.
When she isn’t planning her next trip or helping clients plan theirs, Leigh enjoys playing tennis, gardening, hiking, and spending time with her son and her three cats, Raider, Lexie, and George.
