6 Reasons Why A Travel Agent Is Essential For Your Next Trip
You may be asking yourself - why do I need a travel agent, can’t I just book it myself? While you are probably capable of booking your trip on your own, you’re missing out on so much by not using a travel advisor.
It’s a service you’re already paying for! That’s right, the fees for travel agents are built-in to most vacations - hotels, cruises, guided tours, theme parks - and you don’t get a discount for not using a travel agent. The company saves money, not you. Since you’re already paying for the service, you might as well use it! (*concierge level services may come at additional pricing)
Travel agents save you time! A travel agent can help you with your vacation planning, from suggesting the best way to navigate a theme park, assisting with accommodating food allergies, waiting on hold to make changes to your trip so you don’t have to, updating you on the latest travel document requirements, and so much more - I do the work so you don’t have to.
Personalized recommendations! I know that my dream vacation may not be your dream vacation. I will talk with you, find out what you prioritize and your goals for your trip, and from there I will help you get the perfect vacation made just for you! My recommendations to you will even include things beyond travel itself - like must-see sites, amazing restaurants, or an amazing photographer to capture your memorable vacation!
Quick access to a trusted source for help! Need packing advice? What rides to skip at the theme park for those who don’t like intense rides? Which experiences on your vacations that you shouldn’t miss? Any question you think of while planning your trip, during, or after your trip, I’m just a text, email, or phone call away!
Recommendations made based on experience! Don’t get stuck in a bad hotel, a boring cruise ship, a bad tour guide, or a subpar European vacation because of fake or paid reviews that some companies use to boost ratings. While I haven’t been everywhere, my experiences traveling to 20 countries helps me give you first-hand advice. I also have a network of trusted travel agents that I can ask for advice from their experiences or their client’s experiences. No unwanted surprises on your trip!
Endless resources! While I can’t go on your trip with you, the travel agency I work with and I have cultivated many relationships at many locations. This means there’s someone there who can help prevent any problems from happening, and I’ll usually have a direct line to that person! The agency I work with also has other travel advisors, and we all help each other out continually. That’s most likely a much bigger, and more specialized network than you’d have access to on your own!
