Planning and Preparation:

• Research and choose wisely:

Don't just pick a popular destination because it's trendy. Research places that genuinely excite you and align with your interests. Consider destinations off the beaten path for unique experiences. Why not let a travel consultant do that research and planning for you using their expertise and agency’s industry connections? Just like you wouldn’t do your own surgery or pull your own teeth, a professional travel consultant can help you turn just your normal vacation into something you will remember for the rest of your life and possibly at a price you probably didn’t think you could afford.

• Plan ahead, but stay flexible:

  Book flights and accommodations in advance, especially during peak seasons, but leave room for spontaneity and unexpected opportunities. Here again, a travel consultant can help you book flights, accommodations and activities in advance. A travel consultant will be able to get you any available perks or discounts that you may not be aware of or have access to because most travel agencies work with volume bookings, they may be able to offer much lower prices than those you can find by yourself.

• Learn a few phrases:

  Basic phrases in the local language can enhance your interactions with locals and deepen your experience. When you don’t know enough of the language to engage in extensive conversations with the locals having the right trip protection is even more critical in case something happens enroute to your destination, while you are there and when you leave to come back home. Your travel consultant will be able to help in situations like this and put your mind at ease while you are away from home.

• Pack light and smart:

  Choose versatile clothing and essentials that are appropriate for your destination and activities. Having a travel consultant book your activities in advance will allow you to pack the right clothing for what you will be doing when you get there. Golfing, swimming, snorkeling, horseback riding, hiking? Knowing what you will be doing and what you will be wearing will make a big difference in what you pack.

• Prioritize safety and health:

  Research potential health risks and safety concerns in your destination. Carry necessary medications and be mindful of your surroundings. A travel consultant can be an invaluable resource that will allow you to better navigate safety and health issues and get the right travel insurance while traveling alone or with family and friends.
