FAQ’s
frequently asked questions
Q: Do you offer international travel planning?
A: I primarily service All-Inclusive trips, all Disney destinations, Universal Orlando Resort, and domestic locations. Under certain circumstances, I do sell international travel if it is a European Cruise or select land trips to Italy. Please note, under no circumstances do I book VRBO.
Q: Is working with a travel agent expensive? How do you charge for your services?
A: On most occasions, I do not charge a fee for my services because I get paid a commission by the vendors that I work with. However, if you did not book your trip with me and you need assistance am happy to provide my services for a small fee. This will always be discussed beforehand. You will have no surprise fees!
Q: What if I need to cancel or make changes last minute?
A: In today's travel climate, I understand how important flexibility and the option to cancel your trip has become. Part of my job as your travel advisor is to educate you about each aspect of your trip's cancellation policy. The tour guides, hotels, properties, and experiences I curate for my clients often have their own unique set of cancellation policies, so I will include all cancellation details clearly in your trip proposal.
Q: How do you find the best deals? Can I trust they're the best rates?
A: My job is to find you the best vacation value, although not necessarily the lowest cost. Pricing, while very important, is only one of many factors I consider when putting together the best package for you. Rest assured though, I have relationships with a large number of vendors so after we decide on your trip, I always reach out to my vendors to make sure you have the best pricing for your trip. I take my clients’ budgets very seriously and treat them with the same respect I would want my vacation budget treated, but ultimately I keep your best interest in mind and make my travel recommendations with all relevant factors considered. Also, I am unable to provide line-item pricing, as your package consists of many components.
Q: I don't even know where to start. How do we begin?
A: If the idea of planning a trip feels daunting, you're not alone. That's why I make sure to spend time getting to know you. We'll go over your travel dreams and hurdles, and you'll see just how simple and exciting travel planning can be when you have a seasoned expert to help.
