I often get asked the following question: Why use a travel agent for expedition cruises?
As a travel agent for over ten years, I am biased. I highly recommend using a travel agent to plan your expedition cruise (and remember, it doesn’t cost any extra).
In this article, I will explain why you should use a travel agent for your next cruise expedition. A travel advisor can help you avoid common pitfalls, provide personal guidance and enhance your travel experience by handling the logistics and advocating on your behalf. I will cover all the main points and give you a deeper insight into what a polar specialist can do for you.
Remember, if you need any advice on planning your next expedition cruise, you can contact our travel experience team at North Pole Cruises.
We have over ten years of experience travelling to the polar regions and are here to help.
For expedition cruising, whether it’s your first time or you are a seasoned polar traveller, I recommend booking through a travel agency. There are so many new ships and itineraries, and there are many options (some are better than others). Here at North Pole Cruises, we get feedback from our guests and pass it on to our travellers to find the best experience.
A travel agent will help you in many ways, from informing you about the options before you book to supporting you on your trip. Here are a few points to consider when deciding whether to use a travel agent or not:
Using an experienced polar travel agent for your expedition will make things easier and give you more information to help you plan your expedition.
Here are just a few ways we add value:
It’s a big myth that using a travel agent costs more. We don’t charge our guests for our service, so you get an extra layer of service and support for free.
We pass on all savings and operator offers to our guests so you get the best booking price. We also have a loyalty programme for guests who want to travel with us again and save even more.
Travel agents don’t just help with travel planning. Did you miss a flight or lose your luggage?
Travel agents can resolve any issues during your trip, such as flight cancellations, lost luggage, and travel insurance. They can also book all group members on the same flights so everyone can travel together seamlessly.
We can provide support and help to ensure that your trip runs smoothly and that you have a stress-free holiday.
Travel agents can also offer advice and recommendations to help you through any problems during your trip. All for free!
When you plan your next trip, the expertise of a travel agent is worth its weight in gold. Travel agents have knowledge of many destinations, activities, and accommodations so that they can offer you informed recommendations. Whether you’re looking for a relaxing cruise or an action-packed adventure, a travel agent can provide you with advice you won’t find on online booking engines. Their guidance means every trip aspect is thought through, making your holiday planning more accessible and fun.
One of the biggest advantages of using a travel agent is their personal service and support. From the moment you start planning until you get home, a travel agent is there to understand your needs and preferences. They will offer you tailored recommendations and solutions so every detail is aligned with your wishes. If you have any questions or concerns during your trip, your travel agent is just a phone call away to help. This level of personal service means your holiday is not only memorable but stress-free.
A well-planned trip is critical to a successful holiday, and this is where a travel agent really comes into its own. They take the hassle out of planning by managing everything for you. From booking flights and accommodation to arranging activities and transport, a travel agent will take care of every detail. So you can sit back and enjoy your journey knowing everything is handled.
Travel agents are experts at creating customised itineraries to suit your needs and preferences. Whether you’re looking for a romantic break or a family holiday, they will work with you to design a trip that fits your interests and budget. From booking flights and accommodation to arranging activities and transport, a travel agent will ensure your itinerary is tailored and unforgettable. This bespoke approach means your travel experience is one of a kind.
Group travel can be a nightmare, but a travel agent can make it easy. They will manage the complexity of booking flights and accommodation, arranging activities, and coordinating transport for the whole group. With their expertise, they will make sure all the logistical details are taken care of so you can focus on enjoying the trip with your group. Their knowledge and experience mean group travel planning is stress-free and successful for everyone.
