What can you book with a travel agent? More than you'd think.
When people think of a travel agent, most assume it's just flights, hotels, package holidays and cruises. In reality, I can book a whole range of things on your behalf — either as one neat package or as separate pieces, whatever suits your trip. Here's the full picture:
Package holidays, cruises and honeymoons:
I can book the perfect all-in deal on flights, hotels and extras, tailored to you for an unforgettable trip.
Flights:
I book direct or multi-city flights, securing the best available routes and fares.
Tip: for short-haul European trips, you're often better booking directly with the airline for best value rather than booking with a travel agent for the sake of it.
Accommodation:
I book hotels, villas, apartments and staycations across the UK and abroad. Whether it's a room for two or a villa for twelve, I'll find the right fit.
And it doesn't end there. Travel agents can book a surprising amount more, either separately for flexibility or as part of an existing booking:
Airport transfers, parking and lounges:
I can arrange your transfer to the airport, book your parking, and add lounge access to make the start of your trip that bit smoother.
Car hire:
I arrange car hire worldwide, from compact cars to family SUVs, with flexible pick-up and drop-off options, at the airport or near your accommodation. Whether you want a car rental for the duration of your stay or for only a few days, I can help source that for you.
Tours and excursions:
I can book everything from event tickets, tours, day trips and activities available in the UK and abroad. If you've booked a holiday and there is an experience you don't want to miss, I'm able to book excursions for you and include them as part of your booking for a seamless service.
Travel insurance:
I'm able to send you a link for travel insurance to ensure that you're well covered for the duration of your trip. It's one less thing to sort before you travel. Whether you use my link or book it elsewhere, please never skip travel insurance, trust me.
Whatever your trip looks like, I can help pull it together. Get in touch and tell me what you've got in mind so I can book better travel for you.
