Myth #1
“It is less expensive if I book the same vacation myself.”
Without even considering service, attention to details, wealth of experience and access to hundreds of operators and thousands of sources, let’s just look at a recent example (May 2009 data) of a two city tour of London and Paris using two on line services and that of our travel agency using in this case a Monograms™ highlights package.
When you consider your time and risk of doing this on-line yourself, and that you do not get the services of Monogram 7x24 LOCAL HOST not that of an travel experienced agent and agency such as ourselves, booking this yourself on line really saving you anything? Did you already know that you needed a different ticket for the 2nd Floor of the Eiffel tower? What if you added Rome to the itinerary at a later date, could you modify your Expedia or Travel Bound details?
We can and do.
