Consumer Reports, June 2023:

“SHOULD YOU HIRE A TRAVEL ADVISOR?
The right person can help you build the trip of your dreams.
These days anyone can research and book cheap flights or cut-rate hotels, so what value does a travel adviser provide? Plenty, including helping to fix midtrip snafus and keeping you from making an itinerary error on your next vacation. A good travel advisor can get you places you otherwise couldn’t go, leveraging their connections and experience. If your bucket list includes truffle hunting in Tuscany or taking a vintage sailboat to a remote island in the Pacific, the right advisor will have the intel and connections to make it happen. They can also steer you away from newbie planning mistakes, such as booking an oceanfront property in Oahu at a time of year when the surf’s too rough to swim in.”
