Welcome to the How It Works Guide, where you can learn all about our Client Experience
written especially for you by Erin, owner and founder of Fresh World Travel Co.
Inviting you to reclaim the joy of your adventure
and leave the heavy lifting to a professional
EMPOWERING YOU TO EXPLORE THE WORLD WITH CONFIDENCE AND EXCITEMENT
IMAGINE IF…
The only thing on your travel to-do list was to look forward to your trip?
How much anxiety could you release knowing that the stress-provoking parts of your upcoming trip were being handled by a professional, instead of having to spend all your spare time reading a million online reviews and hoping you were buying the right tickets?
You wouldn’t pressure yourself to figure out the intricacies of your tax returns (unless you’re a CPA) or how the combustion engine in your car works (unless you’re a mechanic, an engineer, or Jake) - so why are you putting the pressure on yourself to figure out all the details of your international itinerary when you should be focused on how much fun you’re going to have on your trip?
As a busy human doing your best every day, I’m giving you permission to outsource and re-prioritize. You deserve it.
Consider Fresh World Travel Co. and our suite of travel design services your gateway to your next era of travel - hello to the fun, the adventure, and the memories and ciao to the stress and overwhelm.
THE TRAVEL PLANNING PROCESS
where the magic happens

SCHEDULE OUR VIDEO CALL
On this complimentary call, we'll talk through all the lovely details of your trip and determine if we're a good fit to work together
(Make sure to choose your specific type of travel planning request!)

WE MAKE IT OFFICIAL
Based on your travel planning requests discussed on our call, I'll send over an invoice with my cost to plan your trip. Payment options include Venmo and credit card. This fee is due in full and is non-refundable.

WELCOME TO YOUR TRAVELER WEBPAGE
Created for each of my travelers, your webpage is where you’ll find all relevant travel information. No more searching through a million emails - find your flight confirmations, complete itinerary, destination specific recommendations, and anything else you’ll need all in one easy to access location. See an example below using password example
***Destination wedding couples also receive a customized guest information webpage, designed to empower your guests to make the trip and celebrate with you instead of leaning on YOU and your fiancé for travel planning help

YOU REVIEW YOUR TRAVEL CONCEPT & PROPOSAL

YOU SHARE YOUR FEEDBACK
Timely feedback is the best feedback! Pricing and availability are subject to change until deposit is made. Let me know if you have any changes or requests.

“
We just returned from our family trip from Italy (Venice, Bologna, & Tuscany) planned by Erin-Fresh World Travel Co. Erin did a wonderful job~ From the initial zoom meeting to understand the concept and our desire for the trip, to creating a very detailed proposal plan for our trip, and finally helping us making the final detailed decisions, Erin did all of this with enthusiasm and care.”

Erin handled everything for our honeymoon trip to Jamaica. It was a huge weight lifted off our shoulders and we had a wonderful time. She was there every step of the way for questions. We learned some great tips and tricks for traveling. Best of all she was competitively priced. Whenever we need assistance in the future we will be back.
SHELBY & JAY | CUSTOM HONEYMOON CLIENTS

Timely and clear communication of must-haves, any changes, and any issues or problems that arise so I can work on fixing them as quickly as possible

Highlights
The best way to get in touch is via email. I do not share my phone number with travelers. All Zoom and phone calls must be scheduled in advance
I expect and require a relationship with my travelers that is based on mutual trust and respect. Poor behavior will not be tolerated and will result in termination of our working together
All of my travel planning services, including honeymoons and destination weddings, are available to everyone. Love is love
My itinerary designs are built based on YOU, which means that I require timely and honest feedback if you are unhappy
I book airfare as part of a package with at least one other travel component. Standalone airfare must be booked by the traveler
I provide bundled package rates from my trusted industry partners and am not able to provide an itemized cost breakdown of individual travel components
I’m looking forward to talking with you soon!
My goal is to enable you to offload the stress and overwhelm of planning your perfect adventure so you can focus on being EXCITED to travel.
My role is to create your perfect getaway curated to YOU specifically. I do not compete with online booking agencies, and I do not include price-matching in my business model.
You are so much more than a confirmation number when you work with me. I appreciate your support of my small business and I can't wait to help you see more of the world!
