Five Compelling Reasons People Like You Choose Food and Wine Travel

 

1. Do away with time consuming research and dashed expectations

Researching an overseas trip can take a long time.  Technology has opened up a world of choice and opportunity that can be quite overwhelming.  Can you trust the overseas websites you are dealing with?  How do you know you are getting the best value for money? Can you be sure you will get what you paid for?
Many travellers have booked on the web and arrived at their hotel to discover their accommodation doesn’t exactly live up to the photos.  That sort of experience can spoil a holiday that you have been looking forward to for months, if not longer.  Food and Wine Travel take the uncertainty out of your holiday planning and save you hours of research.

“We were blown away by the depth of your knowledge, willingness to research our requests and patience with our never ending questions. Your outstanding client service and high standards ensured we had the most amazing holiday.” Belinda C, Hawthorn

 
2. Want to sample regional food and wine on the road less travelled?

If you have an unusual destination in mind, don’t spend hours trying to research your trip, struggling to put together an itinerary that works, get some help from Food and Wine Travel instead. Even if you choose a less popular or remote destination, quality sources will open doors to countries, locations and rare experiences you would struggle to access on your own.

“The restaurants and hotels … were not the usual ones booked by most travel agents. We must thank you organizing this great holiday/tour for us. You were able to arrange our unusual requests when other agents were unable or unwilling. Tom D, Brisbane

 

3. Play it safe and protect your money: here’s an Australian Travel Agent giving you much more than Travel Insurance

An overseas website may offer you a choice of poorly photographed apartments and then ask for a hefty deposit, or payment in full to secure your booking. That is a lot of risk for something you have not even seen yet.  Plenty of dishonest websites exist where your money simply goes into someone else’s pocket and there never was a tour, or place to stay. Or, a supplier will cease operating without notice and leave you without accommodation or refund.  Not a great way to spend the holiday of your dreams.  And it does happen!
Don’t put yourself in a situation where you risk your hard earned holiday money. Come in and meet, or phone Karen Ridge of Food and Wine Travel. Our experience travelling to the places you want to go decreases your risk and heightens your chances of enjoyment and satisfaction. And by booking through Food and Wine Travel, an accredited Australian travel agent, you will have recourse to the Travel Compensation Fund.  More than travel insurance, this fund ensures you get your money back when the unexpected happens.

“My husband wanted a wine tour around Burgundy and in my research I found Food and Wine Travel on line. I noticed it was an Australian company and . . . that put my mind at ease. The tour was terrific and Karen’s help was invaluable.” Margaret S, Kew

 

4. A Hassle Free Holiday—really!

When you book your holiday with Food and Wine Travel you can relax in the knowledge that all the hard work is done for you by an experienced travel agent.  Everything can be taken care of, travel insurance, flights, transfers, accommodation, foreign currency, restaurants, cruises and tour bookings.  Even visas, if necessary.
If something goes wrong, you can contact us by email or phone, anytime, anywhere and we will fix the problem so you can continue enjoying your holiday. That’s our promise.

 

5. Customise your journey and make your holiday a truly unique experience

Stay less or stay longer; eat more or drink less; reduce costs by using different levels of accommodation or even join several itineraries together.  All of this is possible. It only remains for you to decide when and where to go and how you would further personalise your journey.  The options really should be your only headache (and that's not a bad place to be!)
