Using a Travel Advisor

Categories

In this day and age of search engines and websites that claim to find you the best deal, many people feel they can plan their vacations themselves and do just fine.  This is true to a point; however, it can be very time consuming, stressful, and leave you wondering if there isn’t a better way to plan your getaway!  Many feel they need a vacation to recover from planning their vacation.  This is no way to live!  Well, there is a better way; use a travel advisor!  Here are the top three questions we get from people who have never used a travel advisor before.

 

So, how does this work?  We get asked this question all the time!  We are travel advisors and work on your behalf with travel providers (vendors).  We are your advocates and in most cases the vendor pays us a commission to bring your business to them.  There are a few exceptions, but most of the time, the vendors pay us to help you through the booking process and help you plan your vacation.  Our website has lots of tips and articles to help you understand the benefits of using a travel professional.

 

Does it cost me more to use a travel advisor?  No!  We recently posted an article that cited a study that found travel advisors saved their clients more money than if they had booked by themselves.  Not only do we have access to the latest deals, we also have access to extra benefits and value added options for your vacation.  We can give you valuable travel tips and timely information that can save you both time and money; not to mention headaches!  We are local owned and operated in Boise, Idaho.

 

Why do I need a travel advisor?  The internet is a wonderful place to find information.  We have a saying, “The internet is for looking, a travel advisor is for booking!”  We are experts in the world of travel and have the training and connections to guide you through the process.  We are certified specialist.  What does that mean?  We have taken additional courses and training with vendors to broaden our knowledge base to better serve you.  For example, did you know that we are certified Disney Vacation Planners?  Not only do we love to travel we love to learn as well!  So when you get ready to take your next vacation, find a travel advisor!
