Many people’s default option is to book holidays for themselves - either through a tour operator’s website or by purchasing the individual elements of a trip online. But there are many advantages to using a personal travel consultant like me when you’re planning your next holiday. And recent research shows that over a third of people have booked their holiday using a travel consultant in the past year - with this figure rising to 53% in households with a joint income over £75k.
Speak to someone who knows their stuff.
If it’s a complex itinerary or you’re looking for guidance on a destination, it’s great to talk to an expert. You might find a wonderful holiday deal online and book it - but when you arrive you realise it’s hurricane season or it’s too hot. I make sure you have all the information you need to make an informed choice.
Nothing trumps personal service
My role is to listen carefully to what you’re looking for, to make suggestions and then choose the right supplier (of the 300+ that I work with) to brief. And to make sure we can book the holiday you’re hoping for at a price that you want to pay. And then I’ll look after you until the day you come home. Sometimes, left-field suggestions can enhance even the most specific of briefs. As an avid traveller, I’m constantly visiting new places - and if you need inspiration, I’m happy to recommend destinations from personal experience that I think you'd enjoy.
Save time and aggravation.
Looking online for a holiday is time-consuming. Deciding where (and when) to go, researching what there is to do and if it’s safe, finding the right hotel, choosing the best airline. It’s stressful, and by the time you’ve finished booking your holiday you really do need one! I take care of all this for you. And say goodbye to holding on the phone for hours on end to speak to a tour operator or airline – that’s my job.
Peace of Mind.
Whilst you can often find great deals online, you do have to be careful that the company that you book with has ABTA and ATOL protection should the worst happen. If the company goes bust, you’ll lose your holiday and the money you paid for it. Not only am I a member of ABTA but all my suppliers are ABTA and ATOL bonded.
So, sit back, relax, and let me do all the hard work. Get in touch via my contact page and let's get the ball rolling.
