Why Book with a Travel Agent?

Sharing is caring!

Why book with a travel agent? In the day of googling and booking.com is it there still a place for a travel agent?

I think there is. Not just because I am one!

Another Travel Tshirt-Travel Agent

My name is Alex, if you don’t know me, and I wear many hats-or in fact t-shirts. I have a range of creative outlets and interests including travel to magic destinations. Whilst suffering from a chronic illness means I can’t also get out and about everywhere I’d like it does stop me from dreaming or researching and that’s where I can help you.

I am a trained and certified Travel Agent with specialisms in magic locations such as Universal, which I am proud to be certified in, and Disney, for which I am a fount of knowledge.

But why book with a travel agent?

What book with a travel agent?

You might be thinking that’s all great but why book with a travel agent? Well, we are an intelligent bunch able to offer you a host of benefits.

Here are my top 5 reasons to book with a travel agent

1. It’s free for you. Perhaps you’ll even save some money but you will definitely save some time!
2. Travel Agents have specialised knowledge of travel locations. It’s literally their job.
3. Because of this, they will also have access to the best activities in the area and perhaps extra special experiences.
4. They are able to contact hotels directly and add that extra magic to your trip. Helping your itinerary run smoothly, especially after a late flight is a huge plus!
5. When your trips lack that sparkle or something goes wrong. Travel Agents can help sort it out for you.

Save Time and Money

Booking with a Travel Agent is free! I won’t try and sell you anything specific either. Yes, I make a commission on your bookings, which would otherwise go to the website you use, but to you my services are free. This goes for all other reputable Travel Agents in the UK too.

We know the locations and so can help you with that seemingly endless googling that takes you round in circles. I can find some amazing deals, and if I can’t get the best prices for you I can help you with where to go. 

Insider Knowledge, Activities and Itineraries

A key benefit to Travel Agents is their insider knowledge. Whether it’s because they have completed specialised training in the location, been lucky enough to visit, spent hours researching it from their sofa longingly or have experienced contacts. All of this can help them help you plan the perfect trip with perfect activities for you.

Personally I like to create a fact file of locations to where my clients are headed. Lots of travel agents do this or similar. I can even help you plan a perfect day-by-day itinerary to cover all bases. Or just make a few suggestions. That is totally up to you.
