Why this type of service is different from most of the Travel Agencies can offer
I've been noticing a lot of doubts around what this work is really about, how I can add value into your travel planing, and how this is additional from Travel Agencies Services
If you the kind of person that don't like to lose any opportunities while traveling, and waste time planning and during your days abroad, please check out, why this kind of service can be life changing.
1. Hiring one type of service does not exclude hiring the other!
Most travel agencies have as their main source of profit the sale of airline tickets and commissions on hotel reservations, transfers, car rentals and insurance. That's why they work with predetermined business partners, thus “limiting” the companies they usually recommend in their proposals.
A Personal Travel Advisor has the main objective of understanding all your expectations and desires for the trip, helping with travel difficulties that most of us go through, such as dealing with foreign languages sites and providers, evaluating the best options for tours and searching for restaurants, shops and experiences that meet your needs, wishes.
When applicable, the professional will look for and recommend you a specialized travel agency, because in my case, for example, do not work with ticket and hotel reservations. I take care of everything that goes beyond that, but can recommend you great one to support you.
And it's a great option if you prefer to make reservations on your own on specialized websites. Because to have someone planning your itinerary in partnership will save you a lot of your time, money and .frustrations.

2. Curation of things to do, restaurants, shops and more
A trip means a unique opportunity with limited timed frame. And a Personal Travel Advisor's mission is to be aware and know how to recommend exactly what makes sense, thinking of you as individual, with your own interests.
And traveling with a schedule filled with reservations, with list of where to really go to eat and where to see is priceless. Who has never eaten in a bad, expensive restaurants or fought with someone for not knowing where to go, wandering aimlessly until find a reasonable option for your taste?
My recommendations are made based on what influencers channels recommends, often from local contents, which brings great value and trust that it will turn out into unforgotten experience.

3. Recommendations, Hospitality Services, and Reservations in what you really want
The volume of customers per attendant at Travel Agencies will always be much higher than a Personal Travel Advisor, because they are companies focused on volume, not on offering high value customer experience, and unfortunately, many proposals distributed are copies of others.
I have experience in hiring some boutique agencies for personal vacations where the service was very basic. I agree with the superiority in curating hotels, speed in dealing with queries and bureaucracy. But the options for extra services have always been very “packaged” and are clearly closed with current partners without much attention for the personal touch.
Personal Travel Advisor's mission is to make your trip as unforgettable as possible. Taking care of whether there is an interesting meal option at the airport, to creating your trip calendar with all the documents on your cell phone. In addition to helping with facilities that are impossible not to love, such as: online shopping for you to receive as soon as you arrive at your destination, price study of the attractions you want to go and evaluation of the best channels and purchase combinations, plus search for local brands, hidden gems chefs, local events that are of interest to you.

4. Access service to all
Travel agencies and concierges that provide this type of service are only for high-end, luxury consumers and often ask to be hire a membership for very high prices even if you are only going to use the services sporadically.
In the case of Brasa Travel Advisory, you are not committed to paying for a package. Because my services are modular, according to your real needs. For example, you can hire just the service of curating and booking restaurants, an online shopping guide for baby shower, decoration or even for retailers.
This could be you! :)
5. Hiring professionals and organizing small celebrations
Imagine if you have a party, special occasion, a concerte and want to hire a Makeup, Hair Stylist. How are you going to do it and trust that it is the type of professional with your profile.
Have you ever imagined making a birthday surprise for someone? How to make this happen without knowing the place or speaking the local language well? I can do it for you very easily and get everything set.
