5 reasons to book Universal with a Universal Orlando Travel Agent

Planning a Universal Orlando vacation is exciting, but with three theme parks (including Epic Universe) plus a waterpark, on-site resorts, and countless ticket options, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. That’s where a Universal Orlando travel agent can make all the difference.

From finding exclusive Universal Orlando promotions to custom Universal Orlando guides that aren’t available elsewhere, booking through a travel agent is the smartest way to plan your trip. Here are five reasons why working with an expert ensures your Universal getaway is epic, stress-free, and unforgettable.

Before we get started, let me introduce myself. My name is Amy, and I’m a Universal Travel Agent, a travel blogger, a Florida resident, and a long-time Universal Annual Passholder.

I have firsthand experience with the parks, hotels, rides, dining options, and more, enabling me to offer tailored recommendations and insider tips to enhance your Universal vacation. Contact me for more information if you’d like assistance booking your Universal vacation at no cost to you. 

One more tip before we get to why to book a Universal vacation with a Universal Orlando Travel Agent: Having a car can be handy during your Universal vacation. I recommend renting a car from Discount USA Car Rental. They have the best prices, and you don’t have to pay until you pick it up!

Should I book Universal with a Universal Orlando Travel Agent?

Do you NEED to book Universal Orlando with a Universal Travel Agent? Maybe, and maybe not. While you might be able to put the trip together by yourself, having a Universal Orlando travel agent can be invaluable if you just don’t have the time to do all the research.

For those who love to plan trips, don’t worry! Working with a travel agent doesn’t mean you don’t get to make decisions or have the final say – you do! The difference is having an expert guide to let you know if there could be any hiccups in your plans (like ride closures, etc.!)

Now, let’s get to the 5 reasons to book Universal Orlando with a travel agent.

1. Access to Exclusive Travel Agent Pricing & Promotions

While Universal’s pricing is often the same online or through an agent, Universal does love their travel agents and sometimes gives us exclusive promos! Once or twice a year, there will be promotions that are only available to book if you have a Universal Orlando Travel Agent.

Even if a lower rate isn’t available, I’ll make sure you’re getting the best value for your budget and help you take advantage of any perks or promotions. There are always multiple rates available, and I’m always looking to see what is best for you!

2. Exclusive Tips

I have a guide that I give to my clients that is not available on this website or anywhere else. I keep it completely updated with all the best insider tips and tricks to make the most of your Universal vacation. You’ll only get this guide if you book your Universal Orlando trip with me!

3. Stress-Free Planning from Start to Finish

From booking your resort and park tickets to helping with dining reservations and special experiences, I take care of it all. No hours of research, no second-guessing — just a clear, organized plan so you can focus on the fun.

Universal now has 11 different hotels in three different categories, and that alone can be overwhelming. If you add the fact that some of the Signature Resorts include Express Passes – and some don’t – it can be even more confusing! Don’t worry, I’ll be here to guide you and help figure out the best hotel for your family and budget so that you don’t have to worry about it.

4. Expert Knowledge of Universal Orlando

I keep up with all the latest news, updates, and events so that you don’t have to! This insider knowledge can be invaluable. For example, I once had clients who were very Harry Potter-focused, but the Hogwarts Express was going to be shut down during their travel dates! I let them know, and they quickly changed dates.

I’ve also had clients who had no idea that a park-to-park ticket was required to ride the Hogwarts Express. Those are just small things, but don’t take my word for it, take a look at some of my reviews!

 

5. Ongoing Support Before & During Your Trip

If something comes up — whether before you travel or while you’re in Orlando — you won’t be left on hold with a call center. I’m here to answer questions, help with changes, or solve any unexpected issues so your trip goes smoothly.
