![]() Vacations are supposed to be enjoyable, and a travel agent can help ensure that yours is. Opting to make travel arrangements with the help of an experienced and trustworthy travel agent will spare you the stress and uncertainty that may otherwise detract from the quality of your vacation experience. To ensure that the travel agent you choose has the tools and the drive necessary to provide you with a stress-free, convenient, and enjoyable vacation, consider the following: Assess Your Needs and Travel Restrictions Before you get in touch with a travel agent, you should consider your specific needs. Do you have any idea what kind of vacation you are looking to plan? Are you planning a honeymoon or romantic getaway? Will you be traveling with kids? What kind of atmosphere are you hoping to enjoy on your vacation? Answering these questions can help you filter through the travel agents in your area to find those whose services are most tailored to your travel preferences. Do Your Research Talk with friends and family members to see if they have any experience working with a St. Louis travel agent whom they would recommend. Look at online reviews and company websites, and contact travel agents who have the experience and reputation that make you feel comfortable working with them. Consider Areas of Focus Many travel agencies have agents that specialize in planning international trips, weekend getaways, all-inclusive resort vacations, family friendly cruises, and other specific vacation types. Opting to hire a travel agent with expertise in the right trip category will improve your chances of finding a great deal on the perfect trip. Importance of Certification Whatever travel company you decide to work with, be sure that the agency is a certified member of the American Society of Travel Agents (ASTA). This way, you will have peace of mind knowing that your travel consultant is industry certified and has access to a large network of travel experts.

![]() When wanderlust hits, the only effective remedy is to travel somewhere strikingly different from your own hometown. If you have an itch to travel, the time is ripe for you to work with a travel agent to plan a getaway that will satiate your craving to get away. Read on for a taste of the types of vacation that a travel agent can help you plan this summer. Ocean Cruise Kiss land goodbye for anywhere from a couple of nights to several weeks as you set off on the voyage of a lifetime. Over the years, cruise travel has gained popularity as cruise ship passengers have discovered the opportunities and conveniences they enjoy when traveling the world’s waterways. In addition to enjoying the relaxing atmosphere that exists at sea, you can visit several places in a short period of time without having to pack up and unpack over and over again. All-Inclusive Resort Vacation If you are looking to enjoy the perennial beach vacation in luxury and style, talk to your travel agent about all-inclusive resort options in Mexico, the Caribbean, and elsewhere. Rather than allot money for food and other expenditures you will want to make while on vacation, pay one fee in advance that will cover the costs of lodging and all meals—and in many cases alcohol and activities as well. All-inclusive resort vacations are perfect for those who wish to spend a week in an idyllic location, soaking up the sun and enjoying good food and company without ever experiencing an urge to leave their resort grounds. Adventure-Packed Land Tour If rest and relaxation are not what you want from your vacation, you may prefer an action-packed land tour that covers a lot of ground in the week or two of its duration. You could explore the architectural wonders of Umbria, Italy or check out the Vietnamese food and the culture that have people raving about. Are you ready to leave the stifling humidity and pesky mosquitos of St. Louis behind during your time off this summer? If so, call Brentwood Travel at (314) 439-5700 to discuss your vacation getaway options. Our friendly and knowledgeable staff is experienced in making arrangements for cruises, all-inclusive resort vacations, and exciting land tours for individuals and groups. |
