    Or do what we do, half with a travel agent, half by ourselves. We’ll book the major things (flights / cars / hotels) through an agent but leave things like day tours and activities to ourselves. That way if something major goes wrong we can call them and if something minor then who cares you’re on holiday! 🤷🏻‍♀️😂

  2. Monaltrie Lane says:

    Great words Nadine. As a travel agent I often get the “why should I book through an agent?” question. And I think, I could do my tax online if I wanted to, but I choose to see a professional to help with my tax return just in case I’ve missed something. I feel it’s the same as seeing a travel agent. Some might have time to research, book and organise everything themselves… but we may be able to offer some pretty rad suggestions to take your itinerary to the next level, plus be there if something goes wrong and help with those tricky things like visas. It’s a win win if you ask me.

    Very cool video. I have AAA, but i have never tapped into their trip planning…… I did want to try their grand canyon TRAIN transport, but never went through with contacting an agent.

  4. Lala Sloney says:

    they're worth it if you're not tech savvy i think. or if you want a stress free planned trip.

    I love doing all the thrill seeking outdoors and artsy/historical adventures on my trips!
    So I offer to all who watch my videos and like the itinerary they see- to help them plan theirs just like mine, FOR FREE… shameless promo but I just want to help the travel community, I want to help others who talk about all the travel know that they can definitely do it and there's more than just the touristy generic sights.

    Nadine, you have inspired me for years and I hope to cross paths with you one day.
    vibes attract your tribe <3

    Travel agent may plan a perfect trip, but we love planning everything on your own as it gets us all excited about our trip 😍😬🌍 we recently created a couple channel, would love if some of you guys can subscribe to us and support us !! 👍🏻

  6. Travel with NJ Steve says:

    On our recent trip (US->Frankford–>Salzburg–>Zurich) we did everything on our own via the internet. Everything worked out fine but it took a lot of time and research to figure everything out!
    Our next trip to Sicily is going to be through an agent of a major travel company. We will see which we like better. Thanks for all you travel trips Nadine. They helped this year!

  7. verbosity says:

    There are 2 more reasons how a travel agent helps :-
    1. Visa formalities (especially in the cases of passports which don't have many privileges visa free travel)
    2. Getting the details for transit visa incase of connecting flights, apparently some apps do mess these details up.
    ps – what is that locket you are wearing here?

  8. Chris Faver says:

    Loved this video! I’m actually with an airline but recently teamed up with Luxury World Travel as an independent travel concierge/agent to start my own travel business. Travel is definitely my passion and I’ve been following you and Hopscotch for years! Love your content! Keep it up!

  9. The Joe Hill Experience says:

    On my honeymoon to Negril, Jamaica we went through a travel agent. Our departure flight on American Airlines was cancelled due to a technical issue with the connecting airport. So AA wanted us to wait until tomorrow to fly out. So we called the travel agent and he switched the flight to Delta at no extra cost. The peace of mind and customer service made me not regret using a travel agent.

    It’s a myth that working with a travel agent will automatically cost you more; most get paid via commissions from the hotel or outfitter. Sure, some travel agents do charge a fee for putting together an itinerary, but most will credit you that fee if you end up booking the trip through them. Make sure you know all the potential fees before you use a travel agent, and do not hesitate to negotiate away.

  12. Karam Abdulrahman says:

    guys hey listen to me … u gotta listen to meeeee . if you wanna have peace of mind then do the booking with an agent . DONT go cheap to save couple of bugs on your travel when booking with NO AGENT .. i am not saying this because i am a travel agent .. believe me manyyyyyyyyyyyyyy people after they travel , they come back with little hardship and they say they would book with AGENT for teir next trip .

  13. J.L. Goodman says:

    So far,after 2 weeks of going back and forth via email,my travel agent hasn't done much of anything,in fact,we've never even gotten to talk to them on the phone or in person. In fact,you can't call them directly. I thought they would interview us or something to help us find what we're looking for,nope. It's taking longer and I'm more confused than if I'd booked it all myself.

    Travel agency will give a best deal. Used it before on my trip to Europe best decision ever. Never had to wait in line. Will never forget when we went to go see the Vatican while there were millions in line waiting we walked right through it. Took a solo trip with my friend to London super expensive a lot of stuff that I wanted to see I didn’t get to so for me travel agencies work best 🙂 new subie 🙂 great video

  15. Voorhees Jason says:

    well the agent i tried to use was exclusive was using hotels that charges the highest for like 500-1000 a night for a Hawaii vacation I am planning and when most hotels average was half that but she only gave me a list of only 4 hotels from each island. When I told her I am not looking at spending 1000 a night on a hotel, she was like those are the only hotels we deal with. So carefull with these agents
