Ah, the art of crafting the perfect travel itinerary. It’s a delicate balance of excitement and practicality, of must-see sights and hidden gems. Get it right, and you’ll have clients raving about their trip for years to come. Get it wrong, and… well, let’s just say you might find yourself dealing with some less-than-happy travellers.
But fear not, travel planners! We’ve got your back. Here are our top 10 tips for creating itineraries that’ll have your clients falling head over heels for both their destination and your stellar service.
First things first: get to know your clients. Are they adrenaline junkies or culture vultures? Do they prefer five-star luxury or authentic local experiences? Understanding their travel style is key to crafting an itinerary that’ll knock their socks off.
With Vamoos, you can easily store and access client preferences, ensuring every trip is tailored to perfection. It’s like having a little black book of travel desires right at your fingertips!
Knowledge is power, especially when it comes to travel planning. Dive deep into your destinations, uncovering those hidden gems that’ll make your itineraries truly shine. And don’t forget to check out client reviews – they’re gold mines of insider info!
Remember, a good itinerary is like a well-mixed cocktail – it’s all about balance. Mix up busy sightseeing days with more relaxed ones. After all, nobody wants to come back from their holiday needing another holiday!
Our StoryBoard feature lets you visually map out each day, making it easy to spot if you’ve accidentally planned a marathon instead of a vacation.
Let’s face it, there are some sights you just can’t miss. The Eiffel Tower in Paris and the Colosseum in Rome – these iconic landmarks are popular for a reason. Make sure to include these crowd-pleasers in your itineraries, but don’t forget to add your own special twist!
Speaking of special twists, this is where you can really make your itineraries stand out. A cooking class with a local chef, a sunrise hike to a hidden viewpoint – these are the experiences that transform a good trip into an unforgettable adventure.
Use our Points of Interest feature to highlight these unique experiences. Your clients will love getting personalised recommendations from you!
Remember, comfort is key. Consider your clients’ needs when it comes to transportation and accommodation. Is that quaint B&B really worth it if it’s a 3-hour bus ride from the city centre? Probably not.
With Vamoos, you can easily include all the necessary accessibility information, ensuring your clients are always in the know.
Even the best-laid plans can go awry. Build some flexibility into your itineraries to allow for unexpected changes or spontaneous detours. After all, sometimes the best travel memories come from unplanned adventures!
Our real-time updates feature means you can easily adjust itineraries and let clients know on the fly, keeping your clients informed every step of the way.
A picture really is worth a thousand words, especially when it comes to travel. Use maps, images, and day-by-day visual plans to bring your itineraries to life.
With Vamoos, you can create stunning visual itineraries that’ll have your clients dreaming of their trip long before they even pack their bags.
From flight details to emergency contacts, make sure your itineraries include all the essential info your clients might need. And don’t forget those local tips – knowing the best time to visit an attraction or the local customs can make all the difference.
Our Documents feature lets you store all this information in one easy-to-access place. No more frantically searching for that important email or scrap of paper! Plus, Flights will keep clients updated with real-time flight info.
Last but not least, always ask for feedback! What did your clients love? What could have been better? Use this invaluable information to refine and improve your future itineraries.
With Vamoos, you can easily send post-trip surveys and gather feedback, helping you to continually make your service better.
