Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I use a travel advisor?
We get asked all the time - why should I use a travel advisor when I can just book everything myself online?
First, online booking sites don’t tailor their vacation packages to you specifically. They sell packages that meet the lowest common denominator. Instead, we build each vacation with only you in mind.
Also, the online travel booking sites won’t be there for you when you when you’re traveling. You’ll be just another call into their call center when you need them. Think of us like your personal travel concierge. If something goes wrong before or during your trip, we’re there to support you and just a phone call or text away.
Isn’t it more expensive to use a travel advisor than to book myself online?
The old adage is true - you get what you pay for. In some cases, a travel advisor may have access to exclusive deals or discounts that are not available to the general public, which could result in a lower overall cost for your trip. Additionally, a travel advisor will provide personalized recommendations and insider knowledge about your destination, which could save you time and money in the long run.
How much does it cost to use our services?
We charge a nominal planning fee which covers our time in consultation, research, and building the custom proposal. It also covers support before, during and after travel. This fee ensures we are compensated for our time whether or not you finalize your booking with us or complete travel. The fee price depends on the destination and complexity of the trip.
