What are the benefits of using Drop A Pin Travel Co. versus a Travel Agency?
Drop A Pin is a travel planning company. With one goal, to plan a uniquely, tailored trip for you and your guests. We plan trips that are completely customized to fit your interests, lifestyle, budget, diet, and expectations. Drop a Pin is a small company with the benefit of you being our top priority in planning a perfect trip, not just another number. A benefit of not having to spend your time researching flights, accommodations, etc, and letting experienced hands plan for you saving you time and money.
Do you book the flights/accommodations for the group?
We can! You have many options when it comes time to booking. Flights can be financed with us, so you pay throughout the planning process. Or if you want to receive the credit card benefits, we will recommend the right flight and the right time to book your flight yourself. Still saving money and most importantly, YOUR TIME. Ask us how to receive free flights!! Most accommodations are “reserved” ahead of time with us, you will provide the payment at the time of arrival.
How do you charge?
After the initial phone call, we will have more of an idea of the trip plans. An estimate will be sent to you to help keep in mind the overall cost of your trip. If all looks manageable, a 25% deposit of the package cost will be charged for us to start planning your trip! **See packages. example: The Voyage Package cost: $300 —> Deposit: $75.
Do you help stay within a travel budget?
Of course!! Our services provided are to help you save money and time! After the first initial FREE phone call/email, an estimate of the entire trip will be sent over to you to look over before booking and the start of planning.
Do I need specific dates and cities?
No, not at all. We stay up to date on travel trends. If you don’t know where to start, let’s chat! Hopefully, we will spark the travel bug and get a game plan settled with where to go and when!
Where do you plan trips?
We can help design a trip to almost anywhere! We have extensive knowledge of trips to the United States, Europe, the United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, and South America. We won’t design a trip to a country we don’t feel comfortable providing the best-designed trip possible for you, but we will recommend a travel planner who will!
Do you assist with Visas?
No, we do not assist with obtaining Visas. However, if your passport needs a Visa for the country you’re visiting, we will let you know! Example: US passport —> Entering Australia, passport is needed!
