Top 20 Reasons You Should Use A Travel Agent!

1. Our extensive knowledge helps enormously with trip planning. We’ve got the inside knowledge on every type of holiday, ranging from European tours, bike tours, Nile River cruises and everything in between. We can guide you on how long to allow for travelling, the best way to get around once you’re there, how much time you will need in each city etc.

4. You have consumer protection, as we have membership in the Travel Compensation Fund. We also act as a consumer advocate, so if there is a problem during the trip, we clarify the fine print on penalties and restrictions.
