FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What's the difference between Every Little Thing Custom Travel and other travel companies?
Every Little Thing Custom Travel is committed to creating a vacation tailored to your needs. While we are thrilled to utilize our booking partnerships, we are not bound to them and will explore all options to provide the best possible experience for our clients.
​
We pride ourselves in providing advanced research for your itinerary choices beyond the essentials. We believe that including information such as recommended dishes at specific restaurants, a must-see independently owned bookstore, or locally recommended ice cream shops adds incredible value to your trip.
​
When is payment due for my itinerary planning package?
A 50% deposit is due at the start of the itinerary planning process, and the remainder is due when your itinerary is ready; the remaining balance will be collected before the itinerary is sent.
​
How do I get started?
Determine your travel dates and possible location(s) and fill out our questionnaire.
​
What's included in your services?
Our services are separated into two groups: itinerary planning and booking services.
​
Itinerary Planning
We offer three packages of itinerary planning to meet your specific needs. Every package includes personal interviews to determine your travel style and specific requests, then subsequent check-in meetings to tweak our research to your liking. Our most comprehensive package, The Experience, plans your travel from start to finish, and even includes an hourly itinerary to take all planning stress away. Details like transportation, lodging, dining, and excursions will be delivered to you in an electronic format. In addition, we offer booking services for your customized itinerary for an additional fee (pricing is determined by booking needs).
​
Booking Services
We proudly partner with several popular vacation companies (Disney, Universal, all major cruise lines, most major hotel chains) and would love to take the booking pressure off of your shoulders. As travel professionals, we have access to discounts that those not in the industry are not privy to, and also have access to insider information to make your vacation the best it can be.
Combining our itinerary planning and booking services is the best way to optimize your travel experience, and we would love to consult with you about how to best meet your needs.
​
Can I give input into my trip?
Yes! This is very important to make sure that your trip is tailored to your specific preferences. Each itinerary is truly customized to your interests, budget, and specialized needs.
​
I have special circumstances, is that ok?
Yes! This is why you purchased a custom itinerary. We are proud to accommodate all types of special requests: allergies, special diets, religious practices, and physical disability needs are just a few of the considerations we are proud to factor into the planning process.
​
Do you plan trips for families?
Yes! In fact, our Disney itineraries are legendary. As parents who frequently participate in family travel, we are very familiar with the flow of a trip with children.
​
Do you plan bachelor/bachelorette parties and other group trips?
Yes! We welcome all types of itineraries, and as you purchase by the itinerary (and not per person), group trips are a great way to spit the cost of the planning.
​
Do you book Disney packages?
Yes! We are proud graduates of the Disney College of Knowledge and are recognized Disney Travel Professionals. We would also be glad to consult about planning your whole Disney itinerary as well; having someone share their insider tips is invaluable on this type of vacation.
​
Can you plan my trip to Universal Studios?
Yes! We are licensed members of the Universal Studios Parks & Resorts Partner Community. We are proud members of the Houses of Gryffindor and Slytherin, and would love to plan your visit to Harry Potter World.
​
Do you book hotels?
Yes! We are licensed with most major hotel groups. However, if an alternative lodging option (ex: Airbnb, VRBO, or camper rental) works better for you, we would be glad to incorporate that into the planning process.
​
Do you book flights?
We will gladly book flights that are part of a package with our booking partners (ex: Disney, cruises, etc.). For standard itinerary planning, we will provide a flight consultation, helping ensure that you select the best flights for your travel (and possibly finding some savings).
​
Can you book cruises?
Yes! We are certified booking agents with all of the major cruise lines, including adult-only Virgin Voyages, Disney, Carnival, Royal Caribbean, Norwegian, and Celebrity cruise lines.
​
Do you offer referral credits?
Yes! You receive a $50 credit towards future services or every referral who completes a transaction with us.
