Your Australia, New Zealand & Eastern Europe Travel Specialist

I have been a Travel Agent since 1995 and my passion is travel and to inspire others to love it as much as I do. I have had the privilege to live in Australia and also travel extensively in Australia, New Zealand, Hawaii and Eastern & Central Europe, among other places. I am a travel specialist who not only has educated d knowledge of these destinations, but a first hand experience as well.

When planning your dream vacation, I encourage you to research as much as you can about your travel destination (the Internet is a terrific source!) so that you will be well informed before your trip begins. When making your actual vacation arrangements, however, a knowledgeable and skilled travel agent is your best source for selecting the appropriate hotels, tours, cruises and/or local tours to match your travel needs. YTC Travel offers a variety of Australia & New Zealand Tours, Eastern Europe Tours and New Zealand & Australia Tours. So why not leave the hassle and headache of making travel arrangements to a professional travel specialist.

Always remember that when you book with a travel agent, unlike internet bookings, you will always have a live person behind your booking, to answer questions and help you in case there are any unexpected surprises before & during your vacation experience..

Happy Travels,
Elizabeth Michalski, C.T.C

"Without a Travel Agent, you are on your own"

The slogan, "Without An ASTA Travel Agent, You're On Your Own" is true today more than ever. Agents act on their client's behalf, but if you've booked through the Internet, who are you going to call when you discover your "room with a view" has a view of the dumpster? There are a host of compelling reasons to use a travel agent: Travel agents are out to find the consumer the best rate available. Convenient one-stop shopping. Agents are there to save you money as well as time.

Customer advocacy: If you have a problem with a particular part of your travel experience, the agent is there to act on your behalf to see that restitution is made. ASTA, for example, is the only travel association aggressively fighting to improve the travel experience, and air transportation in particular, for all consumers, not just those with access to the Internet.

Expert Travel Guidance: Travel agents, unlike instructions on a Web page, are experts in understanding and deciphering the myriad of travel information and codes out there. It's what they've been trained to do and they do it every day.

Personalized Travel Service: Instead of an impersonal voice thousand of miles away, travel agents are your neighbors. They know what you want and what you value in your travel experience.

Professional Travel Advice: Travel agents are there to make sure you get where you want to go, when you want to go and for the lowest price.

Save Time: Instead of checking a long list of travel Web pages, which only provide rates and fares for the companies that have contracted with them, why not go straight to the source? A travel agent has all the information at their fingertips, saving you a few hours in front of a computer screen.

Unbiased Travel information: Travel Agents work for their clients, not for a travel supplier. It makes sense that a happy traveler will be a repeat traveler for a travel agent.
