Travel Agents

Travel agencies can offer car hire and airport car parking for tourists so that their holidays are as free from stress as much as possible.

A travel agency is a private retailer or public service that provides tourism related services advice to the public or businesses on behalf of suppliers such as airlines, car rentals, cruise lines, hotels, railways, and package tours.

In addition to dealing with ordinary tourists most travel agencies have a separate department devoted to making travel arrangements for business travelers and some travel agencies specialize in commercial and business travel only. There are also travel agencies that serve as general sales agents for foreign travel companies, allowing them to have offices in countries other than where their headquarters are located.  Most high street travel agents now off currency conversions as well.

The experienced staff can offer recommendation about the destinations you are thinking of going to and the types of hotels you are thinking of booking for your holiday so that you make the right choice for the area you are going to.

Lots of travel agents offer ATOL protection as peace of mind.  Some people now refer to travel agents as travel supermarkets.  

Like supermarkets the travel agents offer late last minute holiday deal to holiday makers to make sure hotels and airlines are fun and not running under capacity.
