What was the last time you heard the phrase “travel agency.” A long time ago, right? However, they still exist today. And actually, people love planning their trips with travel agents. Surprised? Find out why it’s happening.
The whole world is online and it dictates new rules
In old times, people somehow managed to live without the Internet. They went to a shop to buy new clothes and to banks to get a salary. Using their special inner channels, travel agencies booked tickets and hotels, arranged tours, and made restaurant reservations. Now you can do this all on your own. However, it can be sometimes tough.
Research struggling
Browsing dozens of apartment rental websites, looking for the cheapest and most comfortable flight options, googling “things to do” – this process takes time. And it surely isn’t the most enjoyable part of a vacation for most people. You can’t be sure if the offers are valid and trust them blindly. It demands additional efforts to check the info and even then, things might get mixed up. The highest value of travel advisers is their experience. They know the ins and outs of trip planning, the customs of the country you’ve never visited before and how to deal with unpredictable situations along the way.
