Perhaps there’s something of the pioneer spirit in our drinking water. Maybe it’s an inherent legacy of our forefathers. It might be nothing more than an inexplicable need to watch the sun setting over a different horizon. Whatever it is, the fact remains that Canadians like to stretch their wings, broaden their experiences and explore beyond the boundaries of their town, county, province or country.
But before you set out on your voyage of discovery, you need to know your travel arrangements are well organized and your destination reputable and safe. You should also have a darn good idea of what to expect at the other end of the journey.
Fortunately, there’s a great travel agency in Guelph who can help you with your travelling dreams, and prevent you from ending up in a travellers nightmare.
Royal City Travel have over 200 years of combined experience in the travel industry. They have been around the world so many times, it would make your head spin. They’re familiar with all corners of our globe, and can help you plan your trip with ease.
Quite simply, they’re your travel experts.
There’s no doubt that the internet has opened up many new avenues for travel. Neil Christie, who co-owns the company along with Dennis Death, readily admits the World Wide Web has impacted Royal City Travel, but perhaps not in the way you might think.
“Today’s customer is more savvy,” he explained. “They often do a great deal of research before they approach us, which means they have a good idea of what they want and where they want to go.”
In other words, the customer turns up with the recipe, and Royal City Travel happily prepares it for them.
Of course, if you book online without a travel agent, you’re pretty much on your own. In that case, be aware that the old adage still rings with truth; if it seems to good to be true, it very likely is. When you’re spending your hard earned money on a well deserved trip, it really pays to use the services of the experts at Royal City Travel. Plus, there’s no fee for booking a cruise or a package holiday.
In fact, you can book your travel arrangements through their website if you wish.
Travel trends shift. What was popular as a vacation option ten years ago might not be as popular now. Exotic faraway places which used to be beyond many budgets are now more readily accessible. Tourism is a massive industry, growing all the time. Understanding the economic benefits, countries are vying to attract tourists and the competition is fierce. That’s good for the traveller, since healthy competition opens up new avenues for exploration.
One of the latest trends is that of the River Cruise. Of course, we’re all familiar with the concept of ocean cruises around the Caribbean or the Mediterranean. But the river cruise is a little different.
First of all, they’re more intimate. The vessels, while luxurious, are not the massive floating hotels you’ll see on the ocean. These are handsome, classy boats designed specifically for cruising major waterways. A river cruise is beautiful, romantic, fun, and for those of you who might take comfort from it, much closer to land at all times.
Most of them originate in European countries. They offer a fantastic opportunity to tour without the hassle of road trips or train excursions. Travellers get to visit some amazing cities, enjoy fantastic cuisine, and relax in deluxe accommodations. Many of Europe’s major cities are built on river systems, because way back in the days before road transport, rivers were used as the main travel arteries for trade.
Another growing trend and a major area of expertise at Royal City Travel is the destination wedding. More and more couples are getting married at exotic locales, with their family and friends joining them in an extended and exciting celebration. If you’re planning a wedding and this sounds like something you’d be interested in, give the folks at Royal City Travel a call.
Make it easy on yourself. Use Royal City Travel to arrange your next dream vacation. They’ll take care of everything. All you have to do is pack the suitcase. Bon voyage.
