Do you ever think, while you are researching your next overseas holiday with our very good friend Google, that you have found some really great places to visit but worry that once you’ve booked, a friend will ‘helpfully’ tell you about other places to go to whilst there?
You are not alone. No one can know everything about travel, so what a lot of would-be travellers are doing these days is conducting their own research online, then talking to one of the travel experts at the Seniors Holiday Travel Club. By taking the time to chat to a travel expert about what you would like to include in your next holiday and what your personal interests are – whether it’s art, music, architecture, fine wine, cooking classes or gardening – you’re more likely to get the personalised dream holiday you hope to achieve.
Expert travel tips may include suggestions, such as using trains between cities in Europe, which can be faster than flights for train travel under four hours, (as well as far more spacious and comfortable), the best locations for hotels in different cities (depending on what your interests are), organising stopovers between Australia and Europe (in either or both directions), currency tips, dining suggestions, festivals and more. The value of the insider travel knowledge that agents often have cannot be underestimated.
The founder of the Seniors Holiday Travel Club, Perry Morcombe, recently told YourLifeChoices that the key word that sums up his staff is ‘passion’ – passion for ensuring that all its travel club members enjoy just the very best holiday or cruise that they can. This is perfectly reflected in its business motto – SERVICE with EXPERTISE.
Many travel websites are organised by travel wholesalers or cruise companies and will, of course, only offer you information about their own products. What you really need is advice and support from an independent expert travel agent who will offer you suggestions from a wide range of travel wholesalers or cruise companies. Your independent expert travel agent will be able to compare and contrast the different wholesalers, detailing their strengths and weaknesses, to help you create and craft your own personal holiday, armed with the best information to do so.
And, of course, by organising your travel through an expert travel agency, such as the Seniors Holiday Travel Club, rather than booking online through some random website, you avoid all the internet scams that are unfortunately becoming more and more prevalent.
