Customized & bespoke travel isn’t going to be the cheapest option – that’s the truth. But do consider the clothing industry as a parallel where not 1 size or style cannot fit all. Similarly, think of us as tailors of haute couture, we personally get involved and put in lots of care into fine-tuning your itinerary to make sure it fits you perfectly.Your holiday is not just hotel bookings done online and tours booked on platforms which bunch 50 of you’ll together. We design your holiday based on years of insight, knowledge and experience. Our access to a global network of partners means that we can leverage those relationships with local partners to ensure that we provide you with an experience that’s beyond the routine and quite frankly, positively surprising – whether it is getting you access to a limited number of visitors per day historical site or knowledge of the locals’ favourite bars in Barcelona.Our (possibly) higher premium reflects all the intimate knowledge we provide, the value-added ideas, expertise that go into your itinerary – as well as our 24/7 support, logistical expertise, and our attention to details. In short, a holiday with CustomHolidays is worth it!
We actually encourage all our clients to share their holiday budgets with us so that we can suggest the best possible ideas in that budget. Clarity on budget helps both - you and us. We do hope that your budget is reasonable in terms of the destination, trip duration and what you're seeking. While we specialize in providing a unique experience, we do our best to match the luxury you are seeking with your budget.
No we do not. Airbnb has an independent agreement with home owners wherein we, as travel agencies have no jurisdiction – therefore, if we book an Airbnb for you and at the last minute, the host decides to cancel the reservation – we cannot do anything about it. However, almost 70% of the inventory seen on Airbnb is now available to us to book through other channels – therefore, it is possible that the same property can be booked by us through another channel besides Airbnb. Also, given the COVID-19 concerns, we're only working with hotels/resorts/lodges that eliminate the risk of a virus as far as possible. Our partner hotel chains, boutique hotels and apartments have set protocols and tie-ups with world-class sanitization companies to provide the highest level of safety and security for you.
It’s completely upto you. Should you want to book flights, insurance and do the visa process on your own, it’s totally fine with us. Or you can leave it all to us and save yourself the stress.
