Why You Should Use a Travel Advisor
Look, we know you have countless options for how and where to book your next trip. Between online booking engines and booking direct, these days it seems deciding the best method to plan your trip is just as difficult as the planning itself. However, sites like Travelocity and Expedia churn out vacations that are a dime a dozen and piecing every component of an itinerary together yourself has been scientifically proven to increase stress levels that cannot be treated with the standard prescribed glass of Cabernet.* It’s time to level up your travel arrangements and let someone else enjoy the hold music for you. Here are our top 5 reasons why you should use a travel advisor to book your next trip.

1. VIP Access
Picture this: you’ve spent hours on in scouring the internet to plan your summer vacation. As you wait to check in, you hear the front desk agent tell the travelers in front of you that they have been upgraded. That evening, after waiting in endless lines for top museums, the person at the bar next to you gushes about their after-hours private tour. And to top it all off, they mention using their hotel credit to cover happy hour. If the mere thought sends you into a spiral, it may be time to call a travel advisor. At Avenue Two Travel, our advisors have a global network of trusted partners, who share our mission to create extraordinary travel experiences. Because of these relationships, our travelers are privy to a number of private and exclusive experiences that simply cannot be booked online. Plus, these partners tend to give our clients a bit of special treatment, so there’s a good chance we can pull some strings to find a room at that sold out hotel.
2. Expertise
To put it plainly, you don’t know what you don’t know. Our advisors have explored the world, and they have passport stamps to prove it. Trying to decide which Caribbean island is the best fit for your family? Or simply where to go for dinner? Your advisor use their first-hand knowledge and help you create the travel experience that fits your needs and preferences. Plus, our entire team shares intel and updates with one another to ensure we all stay up-to-speed on all of your favorite destinations, travel trends, and everything in between. So, it’s more like you’re working with a braintrust of 100+ experts!
3. Peace of Mind
Travel can sometimes feel like an obstacle course. From cancelled flights to global pandemics, our team is at the ready to tackle even the most chaotic travel emergency. You can rest easy knowing your travel advisor is your advocate and will work behind the scenes through any hiccups that arise before, during, or even after your holiday.
4. Convenience
A quick Google search for “African safari” results in over 150 million findings. Meanwhile, a phone call to your travel advisor results in an A-Z itinerary that’s tailored to your personal travel style. Save yourself time and stress, and let our team edit the world for you as well as handle all of the fine print and not-so-fun details. All you have to worry about is what to pack!
5. Personalization
Travel is not one size fits all. We like to think designing your next vacation with a travel advisor is the equivalent of purchasing a custom tailored suit. At Avenue Two, we take the time to learn what’s most important to you and then curate an experience suited to your preferences. From custom amenities to satisfy your Diet Coke addiction to private excursions that will excite even the most angsty travelers – there is no detail too big or too small!
