Ever dream of going on a safari and taking photos of elephants in the wild or kayaking among blue whales? That s how every travel adventure begins: first a dream, then an opportunity, and then of course, the plans. The difference between making a dream come true or turning it into a nightmare often depends on the skill of the planner and avoiding the “devil in the details.” That s where travel agents come in. Choosing an agent who understands what you and your group hope to do, and knowing where and when to do it, can make all the difference. Here are five agents that can help you create the memories of a lifetime.
