The Biggest Misconception About Travel Agents

Allow me to clear up the biggest misconception about using a travel agent. The service provided ISN'T about saving you money... not necessarily.
The savings can and probably do come with perks and discounts but, primarily travel agents provide the service of planning your EXPERIENCE.
Presumably, you are traveling to a locale you are unfamiliar with and the fact is, you are probably going to get referred to AKA "sold on'' some kind of experience -- either by someone you know, the hotel concierge/experience department or from some other source. Once, while visiting San Diego, my sisters and I were encouraged by our taxi driver, to try a winery experience instead of the usual beach, zoo, Balboa Park. We did those things too but the winery suggestion was one of the best I'd ever had. So much so that I make that suggestion to others I know will be visiting the city.
It's up to you, but why not get your experience itinerary taken care of by an expert who knows that location, prior to your arrival? Travel agents and agencies specialize in a range of experiences and the service makes things a WHOLE lot easier for you to kick back and enjoy your travels.
