Questions clients ask *before* planning their vacations with me
Published Monday, February 28th 2022
There are many ways you can elevate your trip from “good” to “unforgettable.”
It is picking the right luxury property, choosing a local guide to show you the undiscovered sights, and opting for a private driver for total ease. It all adds up to an immersive vacation that truly relaxes and invigorates you.
But do you want to know my #1 secret for an outstanding vacation?
Working with a professional travel advisor.
I know, I know—you probably saw that one coming!
But the truth is, no one knows luxury travel like a pro, someone who has the industry connections and extensive experience to plot out a perfectly planned escape for you.
That’s what I do day in and day out for my clients.
Many travelers crave a luxury vacation but don’t know how travel agencies work today. Many of my clients had never worked with a travel advisor before working with me!
So, to shed some light on this “secret weapon,” I rounded up a few of the most common questions I get from my clients before they decide to trust me with their vacation planning.
Chances are, one or two of your own questions are answered below!
Let’s dive in!
Q: Why should I use a travel advisor instead of booking on my own?
A: For three big reasons: time, value, and connections.
Sometimes, it IS best to book a trip online yourself—for example, if you’re only booking a flight or looking for a quick weekend getaway.
But if you want a special vacation, it pays to work with a travel professional. A good travel advisor can:
1) Save you time by doing all the research, organizing all the logistical details, and booking a seamless itinerary. No more endlessly scrolling through Google, stress, or overwhelm.
2) Provide incredible value with peace of mind. A travel advisor is a personal advocate working on your behalf. Don’t leave your investment to chance.
3) Connect you to properties and perks you wouldn’t have access to otherwise. Great travel advisors nurture their relationships with top travel suppliers all over the world, which often results in a way better experience for their clients.
Q: OK, why should I choose to work with you?
A: Good question! Because I specialize in creating custom, immersive travel experiences— travel that plunges you into the heart of your destination.
My passion is helping discerning travelers create extraordinary memories by crafting customized vacations filled with enriching experiences. I help busy professionals and retirees by removing the stress and overwhelm from travel planning.
My clients tend to be curious travelers who yearn to experience the authentic side of their destinations. They don’t mind going slightly off the beaten path to find it. And, of course, they crave a dash of luxury! My clients want an elevated escape that feels easy and indulgent.
If that describes what you’re looking for, I think we will be an excellent fit.
I take a very personal approach to planning travel by discovering your passions, preferences, and travel style. Then I dive deep into research and work with my vetted travel suppliers. I design a custom itinerary to immerse you in authentic cultural experiences beyond the ordinary.
