Travel Advisor FAQ

Why should I work with a travel advisor?

When you work with a travel agent (aka travel advisor), you can take your vacation experience to the next level. A travel agent manages all the logistics such as on-the-ground transfers, hotel and tour bookings, and itinerary planning so you can enjoy your trip without spending hours planning it.

When booking your trip through Fora Advisor, you benefit from our partnerships with over 5,000 hotels and travel providers worldwide, including Virtuoso, Four Seasons, Hyatt Prive, Design Hotels, and more. Perks can include room upgrades, complimentary breakfasts, resort credits, and top-tier treatment.

Working with a travel advisor opens up a secret world of experiences you should be a part of. Don't just take our word for it – we have numerous 5-star reviews from satisfied clients.

How do you know my travel style?

Before booking, you will be asked to complete a survey that helps me determine your needs and travel style. Are you traveling solo? With a group? Are you an adventurer or do you prefer a low-key vibe? I use those answers, inside connections, and my expertise to tailor an itinerary that perfectly matches your style.

What type of travel can you book with me?

You name it, I book it: resort vacations, city breaks, safaris, vacation home rentals, once-in-a-lifetime adventures, weekend escapes, cruises, train rides - I do it all. Once you let me know your needs, I’ll leverage our community’s expert travel intel and first-name-basis relationships with general managers to maximize your vacation. I’ll match-make you to the perfect hotel for your taste, and ensure you get the best value for your money.

In other words, I make it dead simple for you to travel like an insider, with killer hotel perks (think upgrades, spa credits…the works ), personalized planning & insider intel — all for the same price as doing the heavy lifting yourself.

What perks can I offer you?

Expect perks such as:

  • Complimentary breakfast

  • Early check-in / late check-out

  • Room upgrades

  • Welcome amenities (think drinks on arrival, a fruit basket, a welcome note, etc.)

  • Credit to spend at the hotel.

How much do you charge?

I don’t charge anything for most hotel bookings. Advisors receive commissions from properties and travel providers at no additional cost to you. I will charge a planning fee for group travel and more complicated multi-stop itineraries. This will always be transparently presented.

Not convinced yet? Here’s the TL;DR:

  • I won’t just save you time and energy, I’ll save you money, too.

  • You’ll get the inside scoop on everything from what makes a hotel special to why you should order that starter every food critic is raving about.

  • You’ll score awesome perks and upgrades you can’t get anywhere else.

  • I’m your direct line to the hotel’s management team — in other words, you’ll always be treated like the VIP you are.
