What A Travel Agent Can Do For You

Every few months, it seems, a brand-new travel app or website launches, claiming to have access to the best offers ever. While technology can help, what a travel agent can do for you sometimes gets overlooked.

The key to the best trip of your life has been around much longer than online travel sites.  A real person, not an app, with the experience to tailor-make a fantastic trip just for you.

Travel Agent Expertise

A good travel agent has the expertise, contacts, and experience to assist you in designing and organizing a trip. that will result in the best memories of your life. Here are just a few of the reasons why working with a professional travel agent is essential for planning the ideal holiday.

  1. Your travel agent can save: you a tonne of time, as in countless hours of web searching, phone calls, and emails. They are the one who is most knowledgeable on when and where to go, including where you should stay. They know firsthand which resorts provide the best group prices and have studied. when it is ideal to search for tickets for a plane, train, or boat to your desired location. They also know when the tourist horde will thin out sufficiently to give you the most genuine experience. Travel agents can also provide information about opening and closing times, immunization requirements, required documentation, regional customs, and dress codes.
  2. A travel agent can get you prices: and reservations that are not open to the general public, and occasionally they can even score you free upgrades. Consumers sometimes think utilizing a travel agency will cost more than organizing a holiday independently. However, the crucial point is that your agent has connections that you do not. They are privy to the information. The prices you find on websites may seem good, but they may not be exactly what you’re looking for. if you don’t realize it’s a long way from where you really intended to stay. Your agent has access to and the knowledge to locate deals that fit your perfect trip and understands exactly where to look for them. All this is then backed up with personalized customer service websites that aren’t capable of providing pre, post, and during your trip.
  3. A travel agent is crucial: if you’re organizing a group trip. Travel agents are capable of arranging seniors’ needs, children’s needs, adults’ needs, and a variety of food preferences. Agents can arrange specialized experiences and thrive on taking care of and supplying. all the details so that everything is taken care of and coordinated for the entire group.
  4. The help of a human being: in case of emergency. No value can be put on this type of assurance and assistance. I’ve provided support to clients in hospitals overseas and loved ones back home. I’ve re-routed flights and arranged emergency accommodation. Whatever the situation is, your travel agent can make the necessary preparations if an emergency arises, so you don’t have to worry about it.

What Our Clients Say

  • Fabulous Travel Agent, Always Has A Solution For Our Travels, And Now Particularly Through These COVID Times.

    Lee-Anne has been our agent now for many years. She helped us evacuate out of Buenos Aires when there was a national strike. Lee-Anne reorganized our bookings on Emirates for us to leave NZ in March 2020 just before the world locked down. She enabled us to fly into Paris (no rules broken) in September 2020 and since then as the European world has gradually reopened helped with our bookings for flights, cruises and even a private tour to Petra in late November this year. Even though we’re in France, still, Lee-Anne is also enabling us to support other small travel businesses in Australia. We wouldn’t consider using any other travel agent for our journeys. We feel that Lee-Anne understands our needs and works with us always for the best travel options.

    Anne B

  • We have had the pleasure of working with Lee-Anne planning trips and itineraries to various destinations of the past 18 years. Her knowledge has been invaluable to us. She has consistently taken care of every travel detail imaginable and is currently working on an extended European holiday for us. We have recommended Lee-Anne’s travel services to a number of family and friends who are now also her clients.

    The Francis Family

  • We’ve only recently started working with Lee-Anne for our family holidays. She made the whole process so easy. Several recommendations on how to put our holiday together were made based on her experience and we would never have thought of these on our own. The USA/Hawaii package she put together for us suited our teenage family perfectly. Lee-Anne went above and beyond to make sure everything was looked after. She will be the first call we make when we are ready to plan our next holiday.

    The Christensen Family

  • Lee-Anne Talbot is more than just a travel agent. Her knowledge and advice is invaluable, thinking of everything so you don’t have to. In times when Covid can change everything at any time. Having Lee-Anne on top of our travel plans has been invaluable. Thank you Lee-Anne, you will be my first call every time I travel.

    Mandy Giddings

  • Lee-Anne was recommended to us by our accountant after a bad experience booking online. Best decision we ever made. Lee-Anne encouraged us to do our own research online to compare with what she was able to offer us. Not only was she able to offer similar prices, hers were often better or included extras like breakfast or resort fees for the same price. The myth that online is cheaper for booking travel is completely untrue not to mention the financial risk you take with online travel companies not governed by Australian consumer protection laws. International holidays are expensive. Do yourself a favour, call Lee-Anne when you are planning your next trip. She will save you so much time and you’ll have peace of mind knowing your hard earned money is safe.

    Julie McCarthy

  • I’ve been booking group holidays for 30-75 people with Lee-Anne now for the past 8 years. We’ve been to Fiji, Perth, Hawaii, New Zealand, Thailand, Vanuatu, The Cook Islands and a cruise from Singapore. She is a trusted travel advisor, great listener and professional in everything she does. Not sure where I’d be without her assistance with my groups. Can thoroughly recommend.
