Why Choose Us as Your Trusted Travel Advisors

At the heart of our travel consultancy is a commitment to transparency, security, and personalized service. As your trusted cruise and vacation planning specialists, we prioritize your financial peace of mind while helping you create unforgettable travel experiences.

Transparency and Payment Security You Can Trust

Unlike many online travel discounters and large tour operators, we do not collect, hold, or process your payments. When you book a trip through us, your payment is made directly to the travel vendor—never to our agency or Cruise Planners. This added financial security means your money is delivered directly to the cruise line, resort, or tour operator, ensuring your funds are protected at all times.

Every payment made is confirmed in writing by both the travel vendor and Cruise Planners, and you’ll have full visibility into your booking details through your personal MyTrips Account or mobile app. You can easily track your payment history, balance due, and receive real-time updates on your reservation—all in one secure place.

Why This Matters: A Word of Caution

Many discount travel websites, consolidators, and even some traditional travel agencies operate differently. In some cases, they hold onto your funds—often using your money to float their business operations or delay payment to travel suppliers. This risky practice exposes you to potential losses in the event of agency financial hardship, insolvency, or bankruptcy.

Some states have legal requirements that funds collected for travel be held in trust, separate from normal business accounts. Unfortunately, not all companies comply, putting travelers at risk—even on seemingly great "deals."

All-Inclusive, Honest Pricing with No Hidden Fees

We believe in providing complete, upfront pricing. That means when we quote a vacation package, we include all mandatory charges such as taxes, port fees, and surcharges—no low “starting at” prices just to get your attention.

Any optional upgrades—such as premium cabin choices, travel insurance, shore excursions, or tour add-ons—will be clearly identified and transparently priced. You’ll know exactly what you're paying for and what you're getting.

Tailored Travel Planning for Cruises, Land Tours, and Custom Vacations

Whether you’re dreaming of a luxury cruise, a guided land tour, or a fully customized vacation, we’re here to turn your travel aspirations into seamless, stress-free adventures. From itinerary planning and destination selection to travel documentation and on-trip support, we guide you every step of the way.
