Consultation Service & Fees
Thank you for choosing Kim’zebra Adventures & Safaris Limited, to handle your travel plans. Our passion is assisting travelers with quality, high-value vacations, and to do so, we match you with an expert Travel Consultant that has dedicated her/his life to learning the travel industry. Your Consultant will create a vacation experience that is best for you based on your travel style, budget and desired experience.
We have built great partnerships with many destinations, brands, suppliers, and the like. Some suppliers, tourism boards, etc. pay us to promote their area and brands, and some pay us for trusting them with our clients. Of course not all brands, products and services compensate us for our time and expertise. Airlines are a good example of this. However, our priority is you, the client, and providing you with the best vacation options to create your ideal trip. We pride ourselves on matching you with the best components for your trip – not pushing services that aren’t really a good match for your travel plan.
We answer the phone when you call, and promise to never leave you on hold for 3 hours, or transfer you to 5 different associates just to be told that you can’t be helped. We are here for you 24/7 and will gladly assist you should you require assistance during your travel. Our customer service is well beyond the norm.
To make sure that our clients receive the utmost service and care, we ask for a commitment from you to be prepared to book if you are requesting quotes and services from us. Our Client Registration Form Client Registration Form and Credit Authorization Form is required to begin a working relationship with a Kim’zebra Adventures & Safaris Advisor. You can start the process by Scheduling a Discovery Call and we will call you to discuss your travel needs and explain our services and fees.
Our Consultation Fee includes a Planning/Proposal Session with your Travel Consultant Expert (either in person at our office or over the phone) plus the research and creation of your travel itinerary.
