Good to know
Travel planning, without the guesswork.
01What exactly does a travel consultant do?+
I research and organize the pieces of your trip around your preferences, budget, and travel style. Depending on your service, that can include hotels, activities, dining, transfers, local transportation, timing, maps, and a detailed itinerary.
02Which planning service is right for me?+
Full-Service Planning is for travelers who want a complete daily itinerary and assistance coordinating agreed ground arrangements. Wyn & Wander Lite is for travelers who want researched hotel, transfer, and activity recommendations but prefer to organize the days and make every booking themselves.
03What is included with Full-Service Planning?+
You receive a personal consultation, research and booking assistance for agreed ground arrangements, a detailed day-by-day itinerary, maps and travel notes, refinements within the agreed scope before delivery, and help with questions about your delivered itinerary while you travel.
04What is Wyn & Wander Lite?+
Lite is a curated planning option for travelers who want strong hotel, transfer, and activity recommendations without daily scheduling, booking, or concierge support.
05How do planning fees work?+
The prices on the Services page are professional planning fees for research, itinerary design, recommendations, and the coordination included in your chosen service. They do not include the cost of flights, accommodations, transportation, dining, activities, or other travel purchases. Full-Service fees are based on the number of travel days in the itinerary, including arrival and departure days. Lite uses one total planning fee based on trip length. A complex or rushed trip may require an additional planning fee, which is always explained and approved before planning begins.
06What happens after I submit an inquiry?+
I personally review the trip and reply at the email address you provide within two business days. If the timing, needs, and scope are a good fit, that email will include an invitation to schedule a complimentary 20-minute consultation.
07Is the consultation complimentary?+
Yes. Qualified inquiries are invited to a complimentary 20-minute consultation so we can clarify your priorities, discuss the best planning option, and confirm the scope and fee before work begins.
08Do you book the trip for me?+
Full-Service Planning includes research and booking assistance for agreed accommodations, activities, dining, transfers, and other ground transportation. Flights are not booked. Wyn & Wander Lite provides recommendations only; you make all bookings yourself.
09When should I contact you?+
Earlier is always better, especially for international, honeymoon, peak-season, or multi-destination travel. Rush planning may be available when your departure date is close.
10What kinds of trips do you plan?+
I plan honeymoons, couples trips, family trips, international journeys, and itineraries involving multiple cities or countries. More complex trips may require an additional fee that is always discussed before planning begins.
11Can you help if I already booked flights or a hotel?+
Absolutely. Share what is already confirmed and I can plan around it, provided the remaining trip fits within the selected service and timeline.
12Are planning fees refundable?+
Planning fees compensate for reserved time, research, strategy, and itinerary creation and are generally non-refundable. Please review the Terms of Service for the complete policy.
