Frequently Asked Questions
What is included in a custom trip plan?
Your trip plan is created around your destinations, travel dates, interests, preferred pace and budget. Depending on the level of help you choose, it may include a day-by-day itinerary, accommodation and experience recommendations, transport options, dining suggestions and practical travel advice.
Do you book flights, accommodation and tours for me?
I research and recommend options that suit your trip and provide useful booking links, but you remain in control of making and paying for your own bookings. This also means you can choose the options that suit you best before committing.
Can you help with longer or multi-destination trips?
Yes. Longer and multi-destination journeys are where careful planning can make a real difference. I can help organise the route, timing and practical details so the different parts of your trip work well together.
Can you review a trip I have already planned?
Absolutely. If you've already booked some or most of your trip, I can review your itinerary, identify gaps or potential issues and suggest practical improvements without starting again from scratch.
How far in advance should I contact you?
The earlier the better, particularly for longer trips or popular destinations. However, if your travel dates are closer, get in touch and I'll let you know whether I have enough time to help.
How much does custom trip planning cost?
The cost depends on the length and complexity of your trip and the level of planning support you need. Tell me a little about your plans and I'll confirm what level of assistance would suit your trip and the cost before we begin.
NOT SURE WHICH OPTION SUITS YOUR TRIP?
Tell me a little about your plans and we can work out the level of help you need.
