The Travel Teacher

Why do I need help?  I can do this MYSELF!!

How many times I have heard that.  After come the tears.  “I should have listened to you”.  “I spent all this money and didn’t see anything”.  “I spent all my time trying to find a bus or train or whatever”. 

The value I bring to you is worth every penny you “think” you are saving.  The internet is a great research tool.  Dig in there and see what you can find.  But there are many things it won’t tell you.

• Why would you give your credit card to someone you can’t talk to in person? 
• Everyone can make a web site.  How do you know this one is legitimate?   A relative of a client called having booked a Mexico trip.  It was a week away and she had received no documents!!!  What can I say- I am so sorry!!!
• The airlines go bankrupt and you are left with tickets you got “cheap”.  Now you have to buy more and will never get your money back and this is your honeymoon.
• The “cheap” hotel you just booked in Hawaii is under renovation and the pool is closed.
• The location for the car you rented has closed
• A hurricane came to town and the cruise ship you booked online isn’t coming into the port.  Where is it going?  My question, did you know it was hurricane season when you booked?
• Your cabin on the cruise ship was right over the disco that went on all night - it seemed.  Either go join them or sleep by the pool on the deck.
• I am a member of XYC group and I didn’t know there would be 40 motorcoaches on this trip.  I couldn’t hear the tour guide

And on and on come the stories.  But some of you have learned your lesson and are coming back. Horray for you!!!  I am here when you make that decision.
