With the wealth of travel information available on the internet, what is the advantage of working with a travel advisor? The great thing about the internet is the amount of information it provides. Unfortunately, the bad thing about the internet is the amount of information it provides.  An effective travel advisor sorts through it all to help you make brilliant travel decisions whether you are traveling solo, as a couple, a family or with a group. Here are three ways I can make planning your next trip a breeze.
​

Personalized Planning and Expert Guidance
  • As a travel advisor, I don’t just provide answers. I ask questions too! I want to get to know you, your vacation style and preferences so I can make tailored recommendations for your trip. My primary goals as a travel advisor are to exceed your expectations and assist you in the event something does not go according to plan.
  • ​My clients can always reach me when they call. With other travel agencies, clients are directed to a  help desk. When you are my client, you never wait on hold. You can call me, text me, email me, Facebook message me, etc. and receive a reply instantly. Booking with a travel agent like me will end up saving you time in the end!
  • Everybody loves an insider! Being a frequent traveler myself and well connected within  the travel industry, I'm always ready to recommend interesting things to do, unique places to visit and amazing restaurants to eat at.
  • One of my favorite parts of being a travel advisor is planning a vacation package with my client's precise needs and desires at heart. I work with you until you are 100% satisfied with your travel plans. If you come across a vacation package on the internet that looks interesting, send it my way and I will help ensure it’s reputable and has a high level of value.

I have clout in the travel industry
  • I personally contact the manager of the accommodations where my clients are staying to confirm reservations and request complimentary extras. There is no guarantee, but I’ve seen this result in room upgrades, gift baskets, bottles of alcohol, chocolates, etc. About 80% of my clients say they've received upgrades because I’ve been their travel advisor.
  • Since I have clout, that means my clients have clout. This helps ensure my clients have the best travel experience. Not only am I a member of Travel Leaders Network, my host agency is well known and has built strong relationships within the travel industry.
​
Most importantly, I care
  • Whether you are planning a road trip around the country, need a secluded private cabin or want to stay in a private house near the beach, I'm invested in your happiness. My job as a travel advisor is to get you where you need to be, with minimum speed bumps along the way!
  • Good Travels Advisor certified - Good Travels Advisors are trained in the basics of good travel, giving and volunteering.
  • I'm a member of Pledge 1%. This means I donate 1% of my time to volunteer for worthy causes and give 1% of my revenue to charity.

As a travel advisor, I am here to take the hassle and guesswork out of your vacation and ensure you make the most of your time away from home. The service I provide helps to makes sure my clients travel investment creates wonderful experiences and lasting memories. This is just the start of my philosophy in crafting meaningful journeys.
