Why should I use a travel designer?
What's the cost to use a travel designer?
- Knowledge. Benefit from their destination expertise. Instead of spending hours researching multiple websites, you have one point of contact to answer all of your questions.
- Confidence. Be assured that all details are covered. Travel has many components big and small. You will not have to worry about missing any of them! Transportation, tickets, transfers, dining, and every detail will be taken care of.
- Navigation. They sift through the vast array of options available quickly and easily after asking you some qualifying questions. They also are aware of the best possible deals, and I personally apply discounts to existing reservations if/when they become available.
- Advocacy. If any issues arise, your agent will be there to help. Nobody anticipates a problem, but things can and do happen.
- Travel agents are paid a commission by the suppliers they book through. The commission is built into the supplier’s pricing, so you’re paying for a travel designer regardless of how/where you book. Booking directly leaves those monies with the company, and you actually lose value by not having the help and direction of your own personal travel planner. Why not use a service you’re paying for anyway?
- Additional service fees may apply to non-commissionable travel or specialized itineraries and will be discussed in advance during your consultation.
