Everyone likes to travel. Especially when it comes to traveling with family or your life partner. You have to make a lot of preparations to go out with your loved ones. Efforts are made to ensure that there is no shortage of any kind in holiday planning. Be it ticket booking, hotel booking, or cab booking at that place. In such a situation, to make their trip perfect, people choose a tour package with the help of a travel agent. But if you want to avoid any trouble on your journey, then you must get complete information about your trip from the travel agent. Today in this episode we are going to tell you what information you should take from your travel agent.
Know about the place.
First of all, decide and search for the place you want to go. After completing your search, you should cross-check with the travel agent whether the information available on the internet about the place you are planning to go to is true or not. Ask the travel agent about the place and then plan your trip. Keep in mind that take a package only if the place is worth visiting.
What is included and what is not in the package
Travel packages are widely shared with prices in travel. But it is important to check what is included or not included in those packages. Clarify travel arrangements, meals, or even taxes and get all the inclusions and exclusions in writing or over email to avoid last-minute stress.
What are the pickup and drop points?
Check the commute options that are possible for you and decide on the pick-up and drop-off points with your agent accordingly. On reaching your destination, make sure that transportation and communication facilities are being provided to you from the hotel or any other place for local sightseeing so that there is no doubt or confusion later.
Customize the plan
Nowadays, the facility of customizing travel packages is also available. But, you will have to ask this question to the travel agent yourself. How will the agent know what you want apart from the travel package suggested by him? You will have to ask him if the package can be customized a little. If the agent is ready for this, then you should get the package customized according to your convenience.
What to take and what not to take?
Whether your travel destination is within India or abroad, understand the weather conditions of that place from the travel agent. What kind of clothes you have to take, what variety of food and drinks will be available there, whether you should take something to eat from your side or not, also know this. If you will travel by air, then also ask how much weight your travel bag should have.
Do you have a bad weather policy?
Weather conditions are such that no one has any control over it. Therefore, ask your tour operator this question if the weather is not favorable, then what will happen to your tour planning? Does your agent have a refund policy? Or can they plan the trip again?
What is the package cancellation policy?
The tour date and its payment should be made in advance. Before booking any package, ask the travel agents whether any changes can be made or if the package can be canceled after booking. Do talk to your agent about the cancellation fee.
