Tours and experiences in https://mcdonaldscentralhotspot.com/destination/barbados

Let‘s talk about it for a minute ⏰

Because nobody likes an overpriced, underwhelming tour or experience that leaves you feeling like you wasted valuable time on your vacation.

When my clients visit https://mcdonaldscentralhotspot.com/destination/barbados, I always recommend things like…

🍹 A rum tasting tour to off-the-beaten-path bars on the island

🏝️ A catamaran to a gorgeous secret beach

🌊 A private chef’s dinner on the beach

Now, there are dozens of tour operators you can book these experiences (or similar ones) with. But if you want vetted and trusted options — or someone to tell you straight whether a tour or experience will or won’t deliver on your expectations — my travel inquiry form is at the link in bio!

And PS, I’ll also coordinate the rest of your trip — flights, hotels, transport, and all, so planning is absolutely no stress.

Picking a resort or hotel for a spring break getaway/girlfriend's getaway isn’t as simple as a list of results from a search engine and an algorithm. Let me explain!

It just doesn’t account for the extra intel you’re going to want when deciding on a resort, hotel or experience.

Things like…

🌅 Which rooms have the best sunset view?

⬆️ Which resort is worth the upgrade to the suite, and which one isn’t?

❤️ Knowing which resort has staff that go above and beyond to make your experience great
🏨 Which resort or hotel is looking a bit dated, but you wouldn’t know from the photos online because they’re 7 years old.

🏖️ If you’re looking for a quick vacation and these things don’t matter to you, you can roll the dice online.

But if you want a higher guarantee that the trip you book and the resort you pick will deliver, you’re going to want a reliable source you can trust.

That’s me! 👋 Hi, I’m [name], and I help busy families/future brides/cruise lovers not only book vacations but avoid travel disappointment.

When you’re ready to chat about travel, send me a DM or fill out the travel inquiry form at the link in my bio to tell me more about the trip you’re looking to plan.

Booking yourself versus using a travel agent: is it really that different?

The answer my clients would give you is absolutely yes!

You may get the same trip and the same resort, but what you won’t get when you book online is a higher level of care, service, curation, and access.

When you plan your Caribbean getaway or African Safari with me, you never have to stress about sitting on hold.

You never have to worry that you’ll be treated like just another number in the queue.

And you can travel with complete confidence, knowing that I’m here to swoop in with my knowledge, expertise, and travel network to assist you when you need it.

And you deserve nothing less on your travels in 2024!

Hey travel lover, stop your scroll and give this a quick read 👇

Let me give you three reasons why you want me in your corner this year to help you plan all of those amazing trips you’ve been dreaming about:

🔎The Research - Hello, google Rabbit hole, and hours and hours spent trying to find the right information to get your trip booked.

💻 Booking the trip - You have 17 tabs open on your computer. Is this the right resort? How will you get from the airport to the hotel? Do you need to pre-book your tours and excursions?

✈️ The little details - You want it to come together seamlessly, but it’s just so much work, and keeping track of everything isn’t easy. How do you know you haven’t forgotten something important?

Hi, nice to meet you! I can handle all of the above for you. Book a complimentary call to chat at the link in my bio, or send me a DM!

01/18/2024

What could possibly go wrong when booking a hotel?

Here’s what my clients had to say:

📅 They accidentally picked the wrong dates.

📍 They forgot to double-check the location.

🏨 They were misled by pictures online.

❌ They overpaid by booking on a third-party travel website.

Don’t make the same mistakes! Instead, come plan your next getaway with me.

✅ I make sure your dates all line-up.

✅ I make sure it’s in an optimal location for the things you want to do.

✅ I give you first-hand insights into what that hotel or resort is actually like.

Do you have any questions about travel planning in 2024? Ask me anything!

01/17/2024

So many places to travel, and only 365 days in a year!
So how do you narrow it down? Ask yourself these four questions!

❓What do you not get enough of every day?
Some clients need rest, others want more adventure.

❓How much time do you have?
How many PTO days do you have, and how can you maximize them?

❓How much money can you spend?
An important consideration when deciding

❓What weather makes you happy?
Some like it hot, others need to escape the stifling humidity.

These questions are a great way to narrow down the list a little.

Don’t hesitate to share your answers with me, and we can brainstorm your next getaway together. Link in bio.

The thing about booking a trip based on what you see online?

You won’t know from the photos and the website.

This travel pro has booked hundreds of trips and spent hundreds of hours traveling researching and getting to know the destinations I specialize in. Who knows this better than anyone 👇

You can read alllll the articles online and look at every single brochure, but absolutely nothing beats the firsthand experience of being in a destination, at a resort or staying at a hotel, in the very thick of things.

That’s why I can’t wait for my first hotel visit in 2024.

I like to be able to tell my clients what the best rooms are, which restaurants they’ll want to make reservations at, and when it’s absolutely worth it to book a private tour guide to avoid big crowds.
You just can’t trump first-hand accounts from someone you trust.

If your trips in 2023 didn’t quite live up to expectations, this post is for you

👉 If having your travel tailored to you

👉 If having a travel expert in your contact list you can call for advice

👉 And if knowing that you’re not taking a chance when you book a place you’ve never been to

Then I’m the travel advisor for you. I take so much pride in helping my clients make the most of their trips and experiences. You only get so much time away from work, and it’s important to me that you make the most of that time.

And I’ll be bold and say that you just won’t find this level of care with an online booking platform.

So if you’re curious about how I can elevate your travels, let’s chat. Book a complimentary call at the link in my bio.

Picture this: You’re on a secluded beach, sipping a drink out of a coconut, with a cool breeze in your hair, and nothing but the sound of waves for company.

No, this isn’t a guided meditation session.

This is the encouragement you need to book your next vacation!

Lots of my clients have been asking me for my 2024 recommendations, and generally, I tailor my suggestions to each client based on what I know about each of their travel styles.

But I wanted to leave you with one suggestion if a luxury getaway to the Caribbean or a romantic getaway to Montego Bay is on your radar this year:

Let me introduce you to https://montego.mcdonaldspremieretravel.com

Jamaica’s Leading Resort for 3 years in a row, is nestled along the pristine shoreline of the most exclusive, white-sand beach on the island.
I guess the only question is, when will I see you there?

01/11/2024

How do you make the most of your travel budget? Allow me to show you the way:

✅ Don’t delay booking. Prices can fluctuate at the drop of a hat, so booking well in advance is a must.

✅ Have a plan. Have a general idea of how much you want to spend each day of your vacation so you can stay on track.

✅ Don’t fall for false advertising. Sometimes a travel deal looks just fine, but then you get to the fine print and realize it’s not as great as it seems. Keep an eye on the fine print for blackout dates and hidden fees.

✅ Work with a travel agent. I have access to offers and tons of value-added things that you won’t get when you book online through a third-party website.

I couldn’t have dreamed this business up better if I tried!

If you had told me 6 months ago or even 10 years ago when I first started as a business owner that I’d be planning the dreamiest honeymoons to the Amalfi coast on a Thursday afternoon or traveling at least 5 times a year to some of the best destinations in the world while planning trips to Greece and Croatia for clients, I wouldn’t have believed you.

I’m having such a blast serving my clients and helping them make the most of their travels in my travel agency, which was once just a dream.

Love what I do! If you ever want to talk shop, like bucket lists, tours, and the best places to travel for a honeymoon, or family trip, in the Caribbean this year, I’m here!

The most expensive travel mistake I see people making.

It’s the time wasted trying to research and plan honeymoons, family, vacations, cruises, and Europe vacations all on their own.

Think about it, what’s your time actually worth?

And what’s the real cost of spending 20-30 hours of your own time planning and coordinating a trip?

Now think about all of the time you save when you delegate your travel planning to a honeymoon pro Caribbean travel expert, and European travel pro like me.

Not only do you save time, but you also save yourself from making other costly travel mistakes:

❌ Accidentally booking flights to the wrong airports

❌ Booking the hotel for the wrong dates

❌ Missing out on special offers and added value you won’t get when you book on a third-party site.

5 of my best tips to get you through yet another crazy travel year:

✈️ Book those flights well in advance. At least three to four months in advance for international trips and six to eight weeks for domestic trips.

🛫 Avoid basic economy fares. Friends don’t let friends book basic economy, and friends definitely don’t let friends end up with added fees and no chance of a refund in case plans need to change.

🔎 Avoid online travel agencies. I need a whole novel to cover all of the reasons, but the biggest one is the lack of consistency and care and the fact that you’re always at the bottom of the barrel when you book through an online travel agency.

✨ Look for added value. No surprises, travel is not as cheap as it once was, so finding ways to add value to your getaways is key. For example, working with a travel advisor is a great way to get access to better rates, promotions, extra perks, etc.

⏰ Give yourself maximum flexibility. Whether it’s booking the flex fare or refundable hotel rate or adding travel insurance (always have travel insurance!), give yourself lots of flexibility just in case things don’t go exactly as planned.

2024 travel, we’re ready for you!
