Why use a Travel Consultant? You may not fully understand what a travel consultant does. Here's why my clients like working with me and come back again and again: i. First, I protect their precious vacation dollars and hours. I've been to many destinations, seen lots of resorts, and have great relationships with suppliers. I also take time to get to know my clients as well as possible. It’s part of my job and important to me to match them with the right resort or experience. I'd hate to see them wasting money on the wrong vacation, even if it is a great deal. ii. Second, I save them a lot of time and hassle. There is so much information on the internet these days and it's hard to know what's accurate and what's not. Thanks to my expertise, I’m able to advise on the best options and design a vacation that is tailored to your travel style and preferences. In addition, I'm the one that sits on hold, checks fares, and takes care of the details, saving them hours and hours of mindless time and research. iii. Third, I can get them special treatment they can't get on their own. Thanks to my relationships with travel suppliers, I can often get amenities, upgrades and other special VIP touches that most don’t have access to. So even though "do-it-yourself" vacationers may save a few bucks booking online, they are spending valuable time and headaches, when I can make it a much easier and stress-free experience, and get them extra perks too. iv. Fourth, my job doesn't stop when they book their travel. I go the extra mile by making restaurant recommendations, book reservations and extraspecial activities, golf tee times, shore excursions, and I love adding my own special touches. I prepare my clients for travel, so they know what to expect every step of the way. I make sure they are set with passports or visas when needed, help with packing advice, destination information and even tipping guidelines. v. Finally, I'm 1 phone call away. If my clients experience unexpected surprises during their travel like a missed connection, they know they have just one phone call to make and I will take care of the rest. You will not get the same personal service and friendly assistance from one of the online mega-agencies.
