Why We Don't Charge Fees

Read Now

When most people think of travel agencies they remember those stores in the mall or local shopping center with the giant neon cruise ships and posters of destinations you heard of only in history books. These experts were there to help you plan every bit of your vacation and often knew details of places far beyond what you'd find in the encyclopedia at your local library. Today many of those agencies are still around and their business model is built of charging you to access their expertise while they still get paid a commission by the travel vendor.

We are a different type of travel agency.
