In this day and age, travel agents are argued to be obsolete with the rise of travel websites. I had never used one before or even really known anyone using one. So, when planning our honeymoon, which would be the biggest vacation of our life, I figured lets look into it and see what its about. We...found a local agent, Travel Haus! I emailed the office...and received a response almost immediately...we set up a time to meet in person that week...we spent a long time talking about what we hope to get out of the vacation, our interests, personalities, etc...after our meeting, I compared prices to his quote and what the hotel would charge and it was the same. We paid no additional costs for the service of a travel agent, yet I believe we got a better value. We upgraded our airline tickets to Funjet to the Front...basically like first class...He also arranged private transfers for us (no charge!), helped us get a free room upgrade, put us on VIP list for priority bagging, connected with the hotel staff to ensure everything was ready for us upon arrival and perfect, and kept an eye on us while we were there to ensure we were enjoying ourselves...really made planning our honeymoon effortless and smooth. Its nice to have someone...in the business to know what resorts are the ones to go to, how to fix problems if they arise, is responsive, reliable, and so on. We were in great hands and we loved our resort -- it was the perfect honeymoon! Bonus for me is that now my husband has a connection with a travel agent so that he can easily book future trips for us for my birthday or other special occasions (hint, hint) :-) ~Christy M. 8/3/14 Check out more reviews at yp.
