For pre-packaged tours, river cruises, and ocean cruises, there is no fee for my services; the only thing clients need to pay is the price listed by the supplier (which is just the cruise line, tour provider, etc.). There are no fees with these travel options because I earn commission booking them. However, know I will ALWAYS prioritize finding a tour/cruise which fits your travel interests, needs, and desires best.For personalized trips, there is a planning fee of $50 required before I start planning your trip. This fee is meant to cover some of the time and effort that goes into the creation process of an itinerary. This planning fee covers the first itinerary I make, along with two possible itinerary revisions if desired. Any itinerary revisions beyond those two will come with an additional $50 planning fee per each itinerary revision. All planning fees are non-refundable.For booking a flight outside of a personalized/packaged trip, there is a service fee as I don't typically earn commission on them. However, by charging this fee, just know I will be there every step of the way if you need my assistance with any problems that may arise (such as a canceled/delayed flight). The fee price depends on whether the flight is domestic or international: for domestic the fee is $20 per person and for international the fee is $40 per person.For booking a hotel outside of a personalized/packaged trip, there is a service fee of $25 per booking.

While AI might be able to identify popular tourist destinations and sights, it fails to understand the human aspect of traveling. It will never know the awesome feeling you get from walking around a historical site or hiking a beautiful trail because it has never actually travelled. This means any itinerary made with AI lacks a human touch and may not get you as much out of a trip as desired. AI also can't truly comprehend how to put together an itinerary that fits someone's personal travel style, which can vary heavily person to person. This means AI may struggle with picking travel destinations that fit well together, choosing the right place to stay for your specific desires, how to actually get from place to place in a comfortable manner, etc.On the other side of things, as your travel advisor, I will NEVER use AI to plan any trips or make any of my content.
