Arienne helped us take the images we had of our perfect vacation and turn them into a reality. After giving her some basic info about our ideal vacation, she quickly began identifying possible accommodations and excursions for us. She gave us amazing suggestions and we were able to decide on exactly what we wanted. Our outings were better than I could have imagined and views from our hotels, which she suggested, were breathtaking! But, alas, all things must come to an end. Even though we wish our trip never ended, we now get to look forward to booking another trip, with help from Arienne, as soon as possible.

Thank you Arienne and the Hiatus team for planning our amazing honeymoon to South Africa and Mauritius. Organizing the honeymoon in the midst of planning your wedding can be very stressful but Arienne made it FUN and SEAMLESS! After our initial conversation with her she understood exactly what we wanted and planned it to perfection. From the accommodations in Cape Town and Kruger National Park, to transportation, safari preparedness, excursions in wine country, and amazing restaurant recommendations - our honeymoon was a dream come true. We cannot recommend hiatus enough - it was a wonderful experience and we will definitely be contacting Arienne for our future travels.

Travel Advisers: When to Let a Professional Plan Your Trip

By Julie Weed

Decades ago, your vacation most likely began with a visit to a travel agent, who relied on a combination of expertise and connections to find the best deals on plane tickets, hotels, tours and more. Since then, the internet has turned most of us into our own travel agents, and artificial intelligence software is making research and self-booking even easier. But for some trips, that special insider knowledge can still make a big difference.

So when should you hire a professional, and how does it all work? Here are some tips.

Why should I consider a travel adviser?

It’s easy for a traveler to do the research for a standard trip, said Chris Anderson, a professor at the Cornell University School of Hotel Administration, “so they should look for a specialist for the type of tour they are looking for, say a bike trip in Ireland, who can really add value.”

The insider knowledge offered by a travel adviser can add the most value to trips that have multicity itineraries, involve a wide age range of travelers , are very significant (like an anniversary vacation) or are to destinations you are unfamiliar with, said Gary R. Johnson, who has run the travel agency Woodside Travel in Seattle for nearly 30 years. An adviser could help you decide, for instance, in which order to visit European cities based on local events and transportation options.

What can an adviser give me that a booking site can’t?

Travel advisers can help you research the best destinations, lodging, or activities for your particular group and travel goals, offering up specific advice that might be hard or time-consuming to find yourself. Those specializing in cruises might know which cabin to choose if you are prone to seasickness, while a safari planner could help you decide which park would be best for bird-watching or seeing specific animals, like rhinos.

Travel advisers typically have relationships with tour companies, hotels and cruise lines, sometimes through networks. Those connections can allow advisers to offer extra perks such as late checkout, free breakfast, airport transfers, a welcome basket or a credit to spend on a cruise ship.

“A good travel agent will be a better steward of your travel budget than you are,” said Guy Rubin, managing director of Imperial Tours , which arranges travel in China.

When bad weather or other circumstances disrupt your itinerary, travel advisers often have direct lines of communication with providers and can do the work of rebooking and changing plans, saving you time and stress.

OK, let’s say I need help. How do I find an adviser?

Networks like the American Society of Travel Advisors and Travel Leaders have websites that can help you start your search for a travel adviser by answering a few questions about your desired trip. Once you have a handful to choose from, get on the phone with them to talk about what they might do for you, how they charge and the level of service you can expect. Special trips can cost thousands of dollars, so it’s worth investing time up front, Mr. Rubin said.

Make sure to read over the travel agent’s reviews and any user-generated social content that mentions them, Dr. Anderson said. “If there is no external validation, that’s a red flag.”

How do advisers get paid, and how much will it cost me?

Advisers receive commission from suppliers, typically 10 to 15 percent of the price, when selling cruises, lodging and tours. They also sometimes charge travelers a planning fee, from a few hundred dollars, which may be credited to the final bill if the booking is completed, all the way up to tens of thousands of dollars annually for a luxury concierge travel planner they can call on all year. Mr. Johnson said that he charges a planning fee the first time he works with customers. If they return for other trips, he waives the fee.

Advisers may be tempted to sell you something that will earn them a higher commission, Dr. Anderson said. But, he points out, the same is true for the large online services, which promote hotels that pay them larger commissions. Travelers can ask advisers about specific commissions they receive or how they are affiliated with the products they are recommending, he said.

Sometimes a local tour company will package transportation, lodging and experiences for an adviser, who tacks on a percentage before passing it along to a client. But a bill that is not itemized can make it harder to make trade-offs — between a more expensive hotel and a special experience, for example. If pricing transparency is important to you, discuss it with the adviser up front.

How are A.I. and other technologies affecting travel advisers?

While new technologies are allowing do-it-yourselfers to create their own itineraries online based on individual preferences, and to type questions directly into travel websites, advisers are also taking advantage of those technologies to improve their services. Joan Roca, chief executive of the upscale travel planning company Essentialist said his team “uses technology to enhance the human touch,” employing artificial intelligence to choose options from a database of travel offerings selected by a human team. If a couple wants to take an after-dinner stroll, for example, Essentialist’s app will offer up ideas of where to go, based on what part of the city the travelers are in and conversations they’ve had with their travel adviser.

Mumbai:  Spend 36 hours in this fast-changing Indian city  by exploring ancient caves, catching a concert in a former textile mill and feasting on mangoes.

Kyoto:  The Japanese city’s dry gardens offer spots for quiet contemplation  in an increasingly overtouristed destination.

Iceland:  The country markets itself as a destination to see the northern lights. But they can be elusive, as one writer recently found .

Texas:  Canoeing the Rio Grande near Big Bend National Park can be magical. But as the river dries, it’s getting harder to find where a boat will actually float .

You might have strong opinions on what your trip should entail, or just loose ideas, but we can help you develop them. Speak to one of our Global Travel Advisors, and we’ll advise you on the best destinations, depending on your interests and criteria.

Refine your choice from our ideas

After your conversation, your specialist will send you an assortment of brochures and example itineraries to give you inspiration for where to travel and what your trip could involve.

Put you in touch with a destination expert

Once you have fixed on where you want to go, we’ll put you into the hands of a specialist who focuses on your chosen destination. Already briefed on your preferences, he or she will create your bespoke trip, drawing from extensive first-hand experience.

Collectively, we’ve worked with lions in South Africa, trekked Costa Rica’s jungles, snorkeled the Great Barrier Reef, and cycled around the Temples of Angkor. Our Global Travel Team are united by their passionate approach to travel and their commitment to finding the best destinations to fit your requirements.

Global Travel Advisor

Arranging your honeymoon

If a honeymoon on the beach isn’t for you, we have a choice of more than 80 destinations worldwide, covering the Arctic to Australia, Southeast Asia to South America. If your interests lie in wildlife, we could point you toward an African safari, tiger tracking in Rajasthan or whale watching off Canada’s seaboard. For getting outdoors, there’s trekking across old Inca paths in Peru or walking to view orangutans in Borneo’s rainforests. Our Global Travel Advisors will guide you to the right decision.

Stuck for trip ideas?

Deciding where to go can be half the fun. Our Global Travel Team will guide you through the options, taking all the worry away from making the right choice.

School vacations

Regardless of which school break you’re considering, we can find a destination to match the time of year and your family’s interests. That might be tracking the Big Five in Africa during the summer, visiting Japan over Easter when it’s cherry-blossom season, or spending an energetic Christmas of adventure activities in Costa Rica’s cloudforests.

Special occasions

As everyone’s idea of ‘special’ is different, we start by gauging just what your particular celebration means to your individual trip. You might be searching for the right destination to mark a big anniversary or birthday, or looking for a location to take the whole family. Whichever it is, we’ll give you the inspiration to make your trip as special as the occasion demands.

Once in a lifetime

Whether it’s a long-held wish to experience a well-known destination or the itch to explore a lesser-known island, we’ll discuss all your preferences with you at length. We can help you choose a trip that's right for you and filled with personal touches.

Happy Clients

From planning to execution, the services provided by VIP Weddings and Travel were exceptional. Both Dianne and Yvonne were easy to reach and responded quickly to all of my questions etc. They pointed me in the right direction and help to narrow my choices and even when they made suggestions I still felt like I was in control. I went with their suggestions and was so glad I did. Thank you for helping to make our anniversary celebration trip the success it was. Looking forward to working with you on planning another trip soon.

“Dianne, owner of VIP Weddings and Travel is located in Central Florida and was a definite pick around the Orlando area. We sought a business relationship with her after we realized that after going to the same church for years, she’s a wedding planner! She has many strong attributes and her professionalism is through the roof!  Dianne is very humble from the second you meet her and is disciplined with her preparation from day one.  As a husband now, I enjoyed my time working with my bride and Dianne. I recommend her as a solid choice for planning a stress-free wedding.

steps to working with us

“Booking is just the beginning…  it’s everything that comes after and beyond that makes travel amazing.”

INTRODUCTION AND DISCOVERY CALL

To ensure that you have an enjoyable travel experience from beginning to end, VIP Weddings and Travel follow a seven-step travel planning process. An integral part of creating a happy, satisfied client is understanding your travel ideas and goals, so we recommend a 15-30 minute discovery call. At this point, we will complete the Travel questionnaire to capture all the details.

RESEARCH & CREATE THE OVERALL ITINERARY

Based on your feedback from our preliminary questions, we will research and customize your trip. It is the most time-consuming step, but it is crucial to get it right. We will email you your initial proposal(s). You will then provide feedback. If adjustments are required, we will make them.

COMPLETE AND SIGN THE TRAVEL AGREEMENT AND TRAVEL INSURANCE WAIVER

As part of the travel process, you will sign the Travel Services Agreement and Travel Insurance Waiver.

Travel dates will be re-confirmed once again. The next step is to book your accommodations and/or air with the various suppliers as soon as you have finalized and approved the overall itinerary. Just so you know, when purchasing airline tickets, you’ll need to pay for them in real-time; most airlines require full payment at purchase (there are some exceptions) while the rest of your itinerary can be paid in installments. Some clients will use their points to purchase air on their own. 

PROCESS PAYMENTS WITH ALL SUPPLIER(S)

We will make the deposit(s) or full payment to the supplier(s) for the finalized bookings.  You will be sent suppliers’ invoices and confirmation of all payments.

ABOUT OUR TRAVEL ADVISORS

Hello – bienvenidos – bonjour – nǐ hǎo – konnichiwa – boker tov – w ilkommen.

ELISA ESPINOZA

In 2019, I ventured out on my own to launch an independent travel agency— Dreamworld Vacation Concierge , to help families and couples travel to worldwide destinations. My main goal was to assist families, and couples visit incredible destinations and iconic landmarks and discover natural wonders worldwide. At the same time, creating an environment that allows travel advisors the creativity to design trips with experiences that go beyond the clients’ imaginations.

I wed my love of Disney into my vacations through the years, which allowed me to reach my quest of traveling to all seven continents, and I wanted to help others do the same.

My heart was itching not to lose sight of helping others travel through the different Disney brands – Adventures by Disney , Disney Cruise Line , Aulani, Resort & Spa , and Disney Theme Parks Worldwide.

That is when I realized my agency needed to expand, and I began an additional endeavor. So in 2022, I launched my second brand—Dream Vacation Concierge, to curate itineraries to Elevate your Wishes!

I believe that travel is an investment worth more than just time and money, which is why the bar was set high for myself and our Travel Advisors—to possess extensive expertise and knowledge of the destinations they sell.

Our travel advisors have demonstrated impeccable customer service, so our clients receive the highest support when planning their dream vacation.

As our advisors customize all aspects of travel, they keep in mind that the immersive experiences, the relationships we nurture, and the memories we hope to create defines a vacation.

Unsure which Travel Advisor will best serve your travel needs? Feel free to contact us, and we will connect you with the advisor that best fits your travel style. Contact Us for a complimentary consultation.
