Why Choose a Travel Agent?

 

Your vacation should be both enjoyable and stress-free. However, navigating the vast online landscape of travel options can often be overwhelming and confusing. Booking through generic online travel engines may lead to flight misconnections, overbooked hotels, hidden fees, and unexpected changes or cancellations, often without your knowledge. Additionally, these platforms typically lack the personal touch and support of a live agent when issues arise.

 

At Great Escapes, we pride ourselves on delivering exceptional service, extensive destination knowledge, and over 35 years of experience to guide you seamlessly through the planning process.

 

**Save Time:** Instead of spending countless hours searching the internet, allow us to handle the research for you. Our dedicated agents will customize a vacation that aligns with your personal preferences, requests, expectations, and budget.

  **Save Money:** We collaborate with hundreds of reputable vendors and suppliers to secure the best available prices. Our partnerships with both retailers and wholesalers enable us to offer negotiated rates, room upgrades, and value-added amenities that you may not find elsewhere.  

**Personal Experience:** Our agents bring a wealth of insider tips and knowledge to the table. With personal travel experience, ongoing training, site inspections, and feedback from hundreds of satisfied clients, we provide insights you can trust, information that often goes beyond what is available on social media.

 

**Leverage Our Connections:** Our strong relationships with tour operators, cruise lines, hoteliers, and other vendors allow us to offer services and fulfill special requests that may be inaccessible to you on your own.

 

**Comprehensive Support:** Our commitment to customer service extends well beyond the initial planning and booking of your travel arrangements. We actively monitor your bookings during your trip for potential issues, such as sudden flight cancellations or changes affecting your accommodations or destination. Should any problems arise, we are here to notify you, work towards a resolution, and follow up as needed upon your return. Your enjoyment and safety are our top priorities.

  **Emergency Assistance While Traveling**

 

In the event of a problem or emergency during your travels, please remember that you can reach out to us at any time, even outside of our regular office hours. Your peace of mind is our priority.
