As a FORA travel advisor, I am thrilled to offer services that cater to a variety of needs – no matter your budget, destination, or timeframe. Whether you need help planning your trip from scratch or know exactly what you’re looking for, I would love to help make your vision a reality.
A little bit about me – I left the legal field and corporate world behind to put all of my energy into building a travel business. So far I have been to 37 countries on 5 different continents, as well as 37 US states. I am passionate about finding the best destinations, excursions, and experiences around the globe – and then sharing them with you!
Why work with a travel agent?
Of course, you can always plan your own trip – but here are a few of the benefits to working with me:
- Avoid stress: Let’s be honest – planning a trip can be quite the headache. I can take the hard work off your plate to make the experience smooth and stress-free.
- Limit decisions: The place you want to visit likely has hundreds of hotels to choose from. I’ll narrow that down to just a few options in your budget that I think you’ll love!
- Stay in control: As much as I wish I was tagging along, this is YOUR trip! You still get the final say on every detail – I’m just here to help make things easier on you.
- Maximize value: If you’re spending your hard-earned money on a trip, you want it to go as far as possible. I’ll pay attention to those little details, so you don’t have to.
How much does it cost?
Nothing! Not a dime.
Here’s the secret: the commission travel agents earn is already baked into the prices you see for hotels, excursions, trip insurance, etc. Essentially, you’re already paying for the service a travel agent can provide – so why not take advantage of it?
How does it work?
The planning process might vary depending on the specifics of your trip, but generally speaking this is what you can expect:
- Pre-Booking: Email me at courtney.brooks@fora.travel, and I’ll send you an intake form to fill out. Once I have the information I need, I’ll start the planning process and get back to you with an itinerary and/or recommendations. You’ll decide what works for you, and then I’ll get your trip booked!
- Pre-Trip: You’ll receive an itinerary with all of your information in one place, and you can access it offline using the FORA app. I’ll also follow up on the bookings we’ve made to make sure everything is squared away.
- Travel Time: Sit back, relax, and enjoy your trip!! Hopefully there are no surprises, but if there are, I am here to support you.
- Post-Trip: I’ll give you some time to adjust back to regular life, but then I want to hear all about it!
Let’s get started!
When you think you have a trip in mind, email me at courtney.brooks@fora.travel so I can send you my intake form. It’s okay if you don’t have specific dates or even a specific destination in mind – we can brainstorm together to come up with the perfect trip.
