Custom Travel<\/strong> is our specialty. In this case, we create and design a unique trip, based on the travel style of you and your family or group. For example, you may call and want to celebrate an anniversary\u2013destination, perhaps Italy\u2013you can travel spend between 10-12 nights\u2013your interests are food, history, wine, and art\u2013your \u201cmust-see\u201d is the Vatican. In a phone consultation, I find out that you are morning people and want to get up and go, rather than sleep in. \u00a0You are active and enjoy walking, hiking, and bike riding. \u00a0You have both been to Italy before and want to include some more remote destinations. \u00a0As we are Travel Architects, we begin building this trip one service at a time until we have a complete package to include administrative and service fees. \u00a0Because of our international relationships, and our wholesale pricing, we are able to provide a one-of-a-kind experience that fits nicely within your budget. \u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n <\/p>\r\n 2. \u00a0What are the advantages of using Freedom Travel when I enjoy planning my own trips. There are many advantages, let me give you the top 4 reasons.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n <\/p>\r\n Experienced Professional:<\/strong> During this process, you have a full-time professional at your fingertips to assist in the planning process. All too often, a client will book a flight that may be the cheapest one, but has a lousy schedule (like a 30 hr layover or a 1 hr layover\u2013just as bad). \u00a0Another common planning consideration is the number of nights in destinations, and the loss of time during the travel time from one to the other\u2013two nights is NOT two days. Talking through each day and each event with a professional, who has seen waaayyyy too many snafu\u2019s, can give the traveler insight to obscure obstacles and offer other (and sometimes better) solutions. \u00a0It is never our intention to talk the traveler out of<\/em> their dream holiday but to\u00a0assist in<\/em>\u00a0making the dream holiday a reality. \u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n <\/p>\r\n Unique Experiences:<\/strong> Over the many years, we have developed relationships with private drivers, guides, and suppliers of unique services around the world. \u00a0Statistics show, and we know from our own research, that most people are now seeking a unique experience\u2013that is smaller groups, more independent travel, increased connection with locals, and added off-the-beaten-track moments. Regardless of what your special interests are, we can enhance them. A few examples: run a marathon in Portugal, drive a Lamborghini, hunt for truffles, experience deep-sea fishing in Cuba or fly fishing in Norway, swim with the whales, prepare Sunday dinner for an Italian restaurant, have tea with a Bedouin family in Morocco. We open doors.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n <\/p>\r\n Logistics<\/strong>: Planning a trip is one thing. You dream big, find great destinations, tours, and flights\u2013that is the fun part. \u00a0Now comes the heavy lifting, connecting all the moving pieces. \u00a0Start by booking accommodations, making sure that the arrival and departure dates agree, finding the location on the map (because sometimes they are not where they are supposed to be) collecting reliable contact details, ensuring proper bed arrangements, no elevator?! Yikes! No breakfast? What, no AC? All these small details need to be addressed for each service. \u00a0Once that is done we need to connect the services. \u00a0For example, an airport transfer must align with the flight details\u2013so we check and double-check because flights change. \u00a0Years of experience combined with validated policies and procedures ensure a seamless trip. \u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n <\/p>\r\n 24\/7 Emergency Assistance: \u00a0<\/strong>Your trip has been designed, booked, and paid, all the logistics have been run, everything is in place, you have travel documents in hand and you are off. \u00a0What could possibly go wrong? \u00a0There are so many things unforeseen, like missed or delayed flight, lost luggage, stolen money, lost passport, a trip and fall, family crisis back home, incident with the hotel, weather event, cash or valuables left in hotel safe, missed the train\u2013these are just a few real situations that come to mind. \u00a0What do you do, who do you call, who in the world can help? \u00a0Most of the time the hazard has a domino effect. \u00a0For example, a delayed flight impacts, your airport transfer, your hotel check-in (if you are a no-show your room will be lost), and possibly a scheduled tour. \u00a0Without someone to help you would be left stranded. \u00a0Freedom Travel truly is a 24\/7 non-stop friend in need. \u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n <\/p>\r\n
