Traveling and exploring the world should be thrilling, but the planning process can often be daunting. Many people find themselves overwhelmed by the numerous details involved in booking trips, which can transform the excitement of a wonderful experience into stress and overload. This is where Voyage Geeks shines - as your trusted travel advisor, we manage all aspects of researching, booking, and organizing your incredible travel or vacation, allowing you to concentrate solely on enjoying the journey.
And the best part is - this service and expertise is completely free for you!
This post will outline the various free benefits of using a travel advisor and explain why Voyage Geeks should be your go-to trusted advisor when planning your next incredible trip.
No Fees. Ever.
Voyage Geeks provides services for researching, planning, coordinating, and booking your travel arrangements without any service fees. In contrast, many other agencies charge fees on top of the cost of your actual travel, which can be structured in different ways, such as hourly rates or a sliding scale depending on the trip's complexity. This can lead to confusion for travelers, as they might not know how many hours are needed to create a complex itinerary or where their plans fall on the sliding scale.
Rather, Voyage Geeks receives commissions from the various vendors included in your travel plans. These commissions acknowledge our commitment and partnership with those vendors. This means that you pay nothing extra for utilizing our services. You get all the benefits of personalized planning while ensuring you aren't paying more than necessary.
Expertise That Saves You Money
You might question how working with an advisor without fees can actually help you save money. How can it be free while still offering incredible benefits? There must be a catch.
Well - there's really no catch. The secret lies in our extensive resources and strong industry connections. We are skilled at finding deals, discounts, and special offers that many travelers might otherwise overlook. Or they may be exclusive offers only to Voyage Geeks through our industry partners and relationships.
For example: You find a hotel with a standard price of $200 per night. That's the price, right? Well, hotels often have many different rates published for the very same room. Travel advisors have access to tools unavailable to many consumers to see all of those rates and select the option that best fits the traveler. Voyage Geeks or our travel industry partners might have a special negotiated rate with that same hotel that is lower than what is publicly published - but also offers you a room upgrade and includes breakfast at no extra cost.
Here's another example: You discover the ideal cruise on the perfect ship at the best time of year, priced at $1000 per person. However, Voyage Geeks might have access to a group rate for the same cruise at $700 per person. Thanks to the large-scale operations of our partners, cruise lines frequently allow us to book group space on popular sailings, which comes with a reduced price. And, this can often include special perks such as onboard amenities or account credit for you to use as you like.
We invest serious time in learning how to identify various rates and offers, distinguishing genuine savings from mere sales pitches. Then, we prioritize understanding your preferences to align them with the best available options, often leading to a more enjoyable experience that suits your budget.
Time is Money
In today’s busy world, time is valuable. Planning a complex vacation can often take hours of searching, comparing, evaluating, choosing. Then after all decisions are made it can take just as much time to complete all the bookings. By choosing Voyage Geeks, you can reclaim hours that would have otherwise been spent hunched over a computer screen. And close all those browser windows...
Surveys by numerous companies and researchers often find that travelers spend an average of 10-30 hours planning a single trip. And most findings show that all this planning time and effort is the most frustrating part of the trip. Why would you want to start the vacation you've been dreaming of for months or years that way? By allowing our experts to manage the details, you can save those hours and that frustration for what matters most, like preparing for your exciting journey.
Building Relationships that Last
The biggest benefit to using a travel advisor like Voyage Geeks is harder to quantify, but it's maybe the most important. When you choose Voyage Geeks, you don’t just get help for a single trip. You establish a partnership with someone committed to enhancing your travel experiences. We invest time in understanding your preferences year after year.
After you return from each trip, we'll ask you to complete a very brief survey to help us understand what went well, identify any issues (hopefully none), and find areas for improvement. We value this feedback and use it to guide every decision we make about your future travel plans.
This relationship allows for more efficient planning of future trips. Your advisor retains all the details - big or small, eliminating the need for you to repeat everything each time. The more information you provide, the better your future travel experience can be. The only thing you need to do is send us a message with your next big adventure idea and we can get to work on it immediately!
Embrace the Journey with Confidence
Partnering with Voyage Geeks as your trusted travel advisor means unlocking value and expertise without any added costs. By working with us, you not only pay the same or even less for your vacation but also gain access to unique perks or surprising extras that might otherwise be unavailable by booking on your own. And you don't have to do any of the hard work, except packing your suitcase.
Next time you're planning a trip, keep in mind that working with Voyage Geeks leads to savings, less stress, and unforgettable memories. Simple as that.
