The Importance of Research in Travel Planning

Research is a fundamental part of the travel planning process, and many of our clients are happy to leave it to us. However, we also understand that some clients prefer to be involved in this stage, and that’s absolutely fine—we’re here to tailor the experience to your preferences.​

​

​We carefully research every element that goes into crafting your perfect holiday, paying close attention to the details that matter most. This includes selecting the right airline, choosing the most convenient departure times, and pre-booking seats to ensure your journey is as smooth and comfortable as possible.

​

​For example, we always like to give our clients the option of sitting as close to the front of the cabin as possible when flying in economy. Some airlines, such as EasyJet, allow able-bodied travellers to pre-book row 1, offering extra legroom and additional perks. By including these details upfront in your quotation, we ensure that all options are considered from the start—rather than adding extras later—allowing you to choose what best suits your needs.

​

​Tailored Recommendations & Unique Destinations

​

​After planning a few holidays with you, we quickly get a sense of the destinations that will suit you best—sometimes even ones you may not have considered before. One of the most rewarding aspects of our work is suggesting alternatives that align with your travel style.

​

​​For example, if you’re looking for winter sun but have already visited the Canary Islands, we might recommend exploring the northern part of Tenerife before flying to another nearby island for a twin-centre experience. Or, for something even more unique, why not consider a stay on La Gomera or La Palma? These smaller, less-travelled islands offer a fantastic blend of beach relaxation and cultural exploration, creating a multi-centre holiday tailored to your interests.​

​

​Accommodation: A Key Part of the Experience

​

​Accommodation is another area where our expertise truly adds value. We love discovering new places to stay, whether through client feedback, our trusted suppliers, or our own travels. We often receive early insights into new hotel openings, allowing us to recommend exciting, fresh experiences before they become widely known.

​

​And not all our favourite stays are in five-star resorts—sometimes a charming two-star hotel in a hidden gem of a location can offer the most memorable experience. A recent example? A small but exceptional two-star hotel in Northern Greece that provided outstanding hospitality and a truly authentic atmosphere.

​

​Research & Planning: The Foundation of a Perfect Holiday

​

​Whatever your travel request, research is just as important as planning. It allows us to combine our industry expertise, personal experience, and attention to detail to create a trip that is seamless, stress-free, and completely tailored to you.

​

​At DG Travel, we love what we do—and we look forward to helping you discover your next unforgettable destination​​
