FAQs
Is it safe to go to Egypt
Yes, you can book it yourself online, but you are not an expert on every location. Travel agents are a great source of hidden gems, exclusive events and discounts. A Travel agency can make sure that your trip is tailored to you, assist you in case of unexpected problems, and help you anticipate potential issues in advance. Just say “Plan my trip!”
What do I wear?
No, and here’s why: Our travel agency has access to all sorts of chartered flights, wholesalers, and special discounts that aren’t available to the public. Your travel agent can always work within your budget, and he/she will focus on making sure that you get a solid value for every vacation dollar you spend!
Can I Use Points to Book Travel?
Yes, you can! Our travel agents often work with clients who use their points to book flights and can guide you on how to use any other points you may have racked up! Don’t think just because you have points that you don’t deserve quality advice!
Are there fees?
If you’ve already decided the travel provider you want (i.e., the hotel, cruise or tour company), we’ll reserve your desired travel for you and charge no travel planning fees. If you want a collaborative exploration of options with a Travel Byrd travel agent for a custom experience, we request a Research and Design Fee of $245. For that fee, our advisor works to get to know you and your criteria for the trip, delivers options for you to consider, reserves the options you choose, acts as your main point of contact during the trip, and follows up with you after the trip to learn what was ideal and what could have been improved . . . so we can make the next journey even more spectacular. For a five-star traveler, the upgrades and perks we deliver typically far outweigh this planning fee. Also, our planning fee is covered by travel insurance, so if you decide to purchase travel insurance, the fee is counted as one of the non-refundable travel expenses that are covered.

EXCELLENT Based on 517 reviews Ashton Parchman22 April 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We loved working with Shannon on our spring break trip! Madison Otte21 April 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Felicia planned an AMAZING trip for my husband and I to London! She was very attentive to what we wanted, while also providing unforgettable options/excursions. She planned everything from hotels, transportation, reservations, etc; which caused me no anxiety and the ability to truly enjoy the trip. The trip was a huge success! We will definitely use Felicia again. Matthew Whittlesey21 April 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We used Travel Byrds and Sylvie for the first time to plan our European trip to Italy and France and we could not have been happier! Planning a trip like this – 2 countries, 4 towns, 5 flights (and 2 trains!) was daunting enough from a logistical perspective but Sylvie set us up with everything we needed! She coordinated the travel, the timing, arranged drivers when they were needed, helped us navigate challenges in real time and even provided us with an app that consolidated everything in one place! We all met in advance of the trip several times to work out ideas, talk hotels, plan dinner reservations and of course, discuss the things we wanted to do! All we really had to do was follow the daily schedule and enjoy the experiences! Her personal relationships with many of the providers ensured that we were well taken care of and that our events would be great! From walking the streets of Pompeii with our own private tour guide to lunch on the Amalfi Coast through cocktails in the shadow of the Coliseum, we crossed the pond to come home with memories of a lifetime and cannot thank Sylvie and Travel Byrds enough!

Note to self - Always ask Monica Bowen to make the arrangements for a vacation in Ireland or anywhere else. She gets six stars (because five are not enough) for finding a lovely cottage in Lahinch, Co. Clare. I am sharing a photo of the view from the deck. The itinerary was cleverly laid out with maps, phone numbers and suggestions of what to see. Monica will do all the work so that you can enjoy and not fret about a single thing. Thank you, Monica, so very much! Stacia C18 April 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Nikki, our travel agent, was assigned to us for an international trip to the Canary Islands and Spain. I began working with Travel Byrds 3 months prior to our trip. The positive aspects were great. The experiences we booked were incredible, most hotels were lovely and the birthday surprises were truly special. The details in one app and the need to know list were extremely helpful and convenient. Most recommendations were thoughtful. However, the negatives were significant. Nikki’s attention to detail was lacking. She delayed follow-ups until the holiday week and conveniently blamed staff shortages due to the time of the year. Small but important, we were missing also missing a tour voucher in the app. There was a major issue with Marriott. Nikki claimed that she resolved this issue. The information for the last hotel would not appear in the Marriott app which was very concerning. I had been booked under a different name for check-in (no clue why), which caused a discrepancy for adding additional points to my Bonvoy account. I personally contacted Marriott to resolve the issue, and the process was quite lengthy. Lastly, we had agreed to a hotel recommendation that was extremely outdated and failed to meet the standards of the other accommodations we had booked. I would definitely use Travel Byrds again, but with a different travel agent. carrie ferguson9 April 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Krista Friar planned some great outings for me and a friend in Iceland and Germany. After asking us about what we wanted to see, she booked us for sightseeing and lodging. Some highlights included waterfalls and black sand beach on the south coast of Iceland. In Germany, we enjoyed museums and historical sites. I would welcome her again on my next trip planning team.

We had the trio of a lifetime!! Janice Chapin5 March 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Third time using Travel Byrds and yet again they nailed it. Worked with Lauren this time and she was easy to work with and found us a great vacation that we will remember for a lifetime. Thank you again and look forward to planning the next one with you! Corinne Holmes21 February 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Tera helped us plan an incredible two week honeymoon to Italy! She booked all of our travel needs, activities and tours. She provided a ton of recommendations and was super responsive and informative. She even assisted us with a last minute booking after our original wine tasting/tour was cancelled. We can’t recommend her enough and look forward to working with her on future trips! Thank you so much for helping us craft a wonderful trip for this momentous occasion. Sally Schott15 February 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have worked with Felicia on our last two trips (and are currently planning our next two trips with her!). She is thorough and thoughtful and we couldn’t be happier with the results. She has great ideas and does a lot of research to make choices to offer to us. When we had a travel issue she jumped in quickly to solve it for us. Travel with her help is so much easier and we enjoy expanding our horizons with the ideas she offers us. I would 100% recommend her.
