You have limited time and resources for your vacation.

You are planning to spend money on a trip. Why not take advantage of the perks a travel advisor can give you? You could spend all of your time on the planning and booking, but why not take advantage of a travel advisor and lock in all the perks and VIP experience you deserve?

You’re ready to partner with someone who will give you the level of service you want.

You choose the level of service that works for you! If you want to give me a big picture and have me do all the research and booking, I can do that. If you love researching destinations and just want help refining options or getting the best value for your selections, I can do that. I can help you avoid planning mistakes and get better value. Making just a few tweaks can totally change a trip.

You want value and appreciate supporting a small business.

Even if you are a DIY kind of traveler, you are paying commission to websites, like Booking.com or Expedia. You just don’t see the commission spelled out. Rather than paying a giant corporation, wouldn’t you rather have the benefit of an experienced travel advisor help you with the booking? I can usually get you more value for your money and help you build the travel experience that YOU want.
