Do you charge a planning fee?

I. I do not charge any booking fee for booking hotel, cruise or all inclusive experience.

II. If I need to create a personalized itinerary for you, including all experiences, making reservations to restaurants and so – my researching & planning package is starting at $200, however I am pretty sure you will save your money on upgrades, free perks and so, trust your travel advisor 🙂

Planning – I will research a few different options for you and then present them to you within the next two weeks. Once you decide on an itinerary and finalize your budget, I’ll collect a deposit and then I’ll get to work handling every last detail for you. All you need to do is pack your bags! And I’ll even provide you a helpful packing list. Because I have access to deals, upgrades, and offers not available to the public, I will most likely save you far more than the cost of your Planning Fee, and you don’t have to do any of work – I’ll handle everything for you, and because I have so much insider information about destination, I’ll make sure you have a spectacular trip, that’s hassle-free, and you don’t miss out on anything.

How long does it take to plan a trip?

The amount of time it takes to plan a trip from Planning session call to Booking of the last component depends on a variety of factors, including how far in advance of the trip you’ve contacted us, the complexity of the itinerary, how many suppliers we are coordinating with across the globe, as well as any tweaks you decide you’d like to make to the initial proposal. In general, it takes 7-10 business days after the initial Discover Call for us to complete a fully customized itinerary. After the proposal is delivered, we ask that you review and respond as soon as you are able to thoroughly review, in order to prevent the space and itinerary concept from being booked. Please note that, while we always try to stick to our estimated delivery date, there are events out of our control that may result in a delay (an emergency from a currently traveling client, for example). We ask for your understanding when the need to take a few more days arises.

Do I need travel insurance?

In the travel world, we know to expect the unexpected. Travel insurance can help cover costs associated with travel delays, lost luggage, and unexpected cancellations. Should an emergency arise while traveling, our team is on call and ready to assist.

What happens if I run into an issue during travel?

We are here to help! Please contact us if you have any issues during your travels and we will do our best to support you and resolve any issues expediently. We will also arm you with local in-country contacts such as your hotel, tour operator, or guide (if applicable).
