I’m concerned something happens between now and then and I can’t go. How can I protect my vacation?
So you know you could lose your travel investment if you need to cancel – good for you!
It’s true. You may have a very pretty penny at risk if something comes up. Having a travel advisor helps you navigate these changes removing a lot of the aggravation involved.
I can also take it one step further – and this is what I recommend for every client’s peace of mind - by explaining what trip insurance options are open to you.
For instance, Luxury Travel Authority offers full protection that lets you cancel for any reason—not just a list of approved causes.

Do I have to pay you upfront for my vacation?
No! Our suppliers set deposit requirements. Deposit rates vary based on the resort or package you select, and the time you travel.
A deposit is made on your behalf directly with the resort or tour operator. This way, you are assured that your deposit is applied directly to your vacation at the time of booking.
Most vacation packages require that you pay the balance 45 days prior to your arrival date. And just as with the deposit, this final payment is made directly to the supplier.

What Does A Travel Advisor Do?
In a world of Google and online booking platforms, you might be wondering “What do travel advisors do anyway”, this is by no means a full list, but let me give you some insight.
I don’t just book travel.
I curate travel based on the destination you want to visit, the things you want to see, and your overall travel preferences.
Planning your travel is very personal and I add a personal touch. Instead of booking that vacation package online that you “think” might be good for you, we talk it through to make sure I’m curating a vacation that’s perfect for you.
I bring my experience to the table.
Online forums and Google reviews can be notoriously skewed, but when we work together on your vacation you’re getting vetted information.

Because of this, you’ll never need to worry about spending more than you want to, paying hidden fees, or if you’re getting the best value for your money – You are!
And, if the trip of your dreams seems out of reach, ask about options. You might be surprised by what is possible like suppliers not requiring full payment in the short term.
Instead, you may be able to purchase through monthly installments.
As an advisor, I can often offer you these alternatives that you can’t get directly through airlines, hotels, and online travel companies.

In the #Oaxaca clouds lies a pre-Columbian city to rival #ChichénItzá
Though it bears a strong resemblance to Chichén Itzá, Mexico’s hilltop complex of Monte Albán pre-dates its Yucatán cousin by 750 years and receives just a fifth of the visitors.
Set high above Oaxaca City, it was built by the Zapotecs around 500 BCE but eventually faded into slow obscurity until Leopoldo Batres began excavations in 1902, discovering a trove of important gold and striking pyramids.
Alongside Chichén Itzá and the pre-Aztec Teotihuacan ruins outside #Mexico City, Monte Albán is one of the most important pre-Columbian archaeological treasures of Mesoamerica.
The site’s strategic hilltop location puts it level with the clouds above Oaxaca’s Central Valleys, and as visitors stroll the grounds they can ponder the astronomical observations made from the site centuries ago.
The Zapotec god of rain, Cocijo, was the main deity worshipped here, perhaps because the 400m (1312ft) elevation gives the perfect vantage on any storm clouds moving in.
Come on a weekday and it can feel like a place where time has collapsed, far from the busy city below.
When to go: Oct–Nov; October marks the start of the dry season, with ideal temperatures and clear skies. Time your trip right (in the lead-up to November 1-2), and you can view the local Day of the Dead altars in Oaxaca City during your stay.

Is the destination I’m traveling to safe?
I say this often, yet it’s the truth.
It depends.
On things like your personal risk tolerance level and your personal travel style.
When we’re discussing destination options, do research them on the U.S. State Department’s website so you can gauge whether or not you’d feel safe traveling there.
Only you can decide.

How do I travel alone?
Traveling alone can be a truly exhilarating experience. If you want to plan a solo trip, a trusted travel advisor can be your partner in travel without actually being there with you.
Some of the fears that come with traveling alone, especially if it’s to an exotic destination, are the language and cultural barriers as well as safety. Your advisor will be able to connect you with people on the ground at your destination, and you will be able to turn to them or to your advisor if you need anything during your trip.
Luxury Travel Authority has first-hand experience with solo travel. Start your journey today!

#Húsavík is the oldest settlement in #Iceland, besides being the largest town in the Þingeyjarsýsla district and the service center for the surrounding area. The town is known for whale-watching tours in Skjálfandi Bay and is often referred to as the Whale Capital of Iceland. Up to 23 species of whale, including the Blue Whale, as well as large colonies of puffins can be found in or around the bay. One can experience the gigantic life-size of whales in the local Whale Museum where, amongst others, a 22m-long skeleton of a Blue Whale is on display. When visiting you can sail in pursuit of these wonderful creatures which is an experience no one should miss and will certainly not forget. Cultural life in and around the town flourishes and you'll be affected by it! Enjoy a show put on by the active and enthusiastic drama society - it's one of the best amateur theatre groups in Iceland. Or spend time listening to the choirs and instrumental groups that play throughout the town.
In Húsavík you'll find a variety of accommodations, restaurants, and cafés, a brewery, a geothermal swimming pool, as well as a golf course and skiing area. Tak a dip in the newly opened sea bath - enjoy the geothermal hot sea water with a magnificent view over the bay. Such a hidden gem!
