Myths about Working with a Travel Advisor
Have questions about what it means to work with a Travel Advisor? Let's explore some common myths...
Myth: Working with a Travel Advisor is Expensive
Fact: Most of my services are completely free! I only charge a fee when you request advanced planning services (for example, if you'd like help booking dinner reservations or deciding between several destinations), and we'll always discuss this upfront. Working with me can often lead to cost savings through access to exclusive deals and value-added perks.
Myth: I don't need a Travel Advisor because I can find the best rates online
Fact: In many cases, the rates I can offer as a Travel Advisor do match the rates you can find through doing research of your own. In some cases, I have access to exclusive rates and perks you cannot find online. In either case, I can save you time by doing the legwork of hours of research and applying industry expertise to make you feel confident in your travel planning. Most people spend 20-30 hours on pre-travel planning on their own!
Myth: Travel Advisors only help with hotel or cruise bookings
Fact: I offer comprehensive travel planning, including customized itineraries, tours, activities, transportation arrangements, dinner reservations, etc.
Myth: Travel Advisors are only for big international trips
Fact: You don't need to go far to see the benefits of working with a Travel Advisor; I can also help you save time and get perks on a quick domestic trip.
Myth: You have to have a big budget to work with a Travel Advisor
Fact: I cater my services to meet what you need. I work with a wide range of budgets and tastes to source options perfect for whatever kind of trip you're planning.
