Booking online can seem quick and easy, but a good travel specialist offers far more than a reservation. Here are ten reasons to put your next journey in expert hands.
1. Experience
A travel specialist knows the market and, by listening carefully to what you want, can find a better match than any search engine.
2. An advocate on your side
If something goes wrong during your trip, your travel company will step in to put things right, whoever is at fault.
3. Resources you cannot access alone
Travel professionals use tools and relationships that most travellers never see. They can often secure better seats, room upgrades, added amenities, event tickets and special experiences.
4. Convenience
Your time is precious. Instead of spending hours searching, let a specialist match you with the holiday you truly want, rather than the one that simply looks good on screen.

5. A relationship that grows
The longer you travel with a specialist, the better they understand your tastes. Eventually, a single call or email is all it takes to plan your next escape.
6. Real savings
Through long-standing supplier relationships, specialists can often save you money, or at least match the price you have found, while saving you time and effort. Their packages frequently include transfers and extras that a do-it-yourself booking leaves out.
7. Added value
Many travellers never realise how many extras a travel company can arrange. Ever wondered why the couple in the next cabin received champagne? There is a good chance they booked through a specialist.
8. Better destinations, at better times
Specialists know the ideal time to visit popular places, and often spot the next great destination before the crowds arrive.

9. Exclusive access
Some tours, treks and private experiences can only be booked through a travel professional, as providers want to be sure each guest is the right fit.
10. People who love what they do
Travel specialists are curious, knowledgeable and passionate about showing you the world. Make the most of them.
At GoingForTour, our specialists are on hand around the clock throughout your journey, because we believe the care we provide after you book matters even more than the booking itself. Your comfort is our priority.
