Travel Far & Beyond - Calgary, Alberta

T E.

My experience with Travel Far was interesting. I should have known better so I need to start with, I OWN THIS. However, a travel agent is like an auto mechanic or doctor. You need to have trust.

I sought a travel agent because I was too busy with work to book flights to Quito, Ecuador. The agent was quick to help me at first but the one thing I should have checked was the price of the flights. I did find it odd that I was booked with Air Canada, flying from YYC to Toronto to Bogoto then to Quito. I have traveled to South America before and I always travel through the US.

Anyways, my flights cost just a hair under $1900 round trip. When I checked online for flights, there was one as low as $650....

When I arrived with my group in Ecudaor, I bumped into numerous people from CALGARY OF ALL PLACES! It was incredible (different story) but they told me they booked their flights for $850....

So, I paid over 200% more than I likely should have. Do I deserve it? Yes. I should have done my due diligence. BUT, I expect my agents to do everything they can to provide me with options on best pricing for affordability and comfort so I can choose.

I also was asked by my agent to check to see if I need a visa to travel through Colombia. This is something I expect my agent to tell me, not the other way around. No, you do not need a visa to travel through or to Colombia if you are staying under 90 days.

It's back to the drawing board for me.

I was recommend speaking to Alice Lau and it was an awesome experience. Alice was not only very friendly, patient, and efficient to find the best flights for me, but also, she reminded me before my departure. I will definitely refer friends to her.

I booked three trips to Beijing and one trip to Belgium with Alice. The trips were around 15 - 20 years ago. She is amazing If I ever hear of people who need to book travel, I would tell them to see Alice.

This is a great legacy company that has been a Calgary staple for 40 years.

They helped many generations, and myself included. For those who want to travel, but aren't educated in how to make it happen, come to speak to this team. Very friendly! 🙂

I have always had good experiences booking with Janez, she has always been so consistent and accurate and lately, I booked my husband Jov and my brother-in-law Jeff’s flight. I have referred her to my relatives and she will always be our go to agent. Thanks Travel Far and Beyond! Highly recommended!

I was desperately looking for a reliable and trustworthy travel agent and my friend recommend Traver Far and beyond . I spoke to Janiz and she is one of a kind, she treats you like you are one of her family. During the pandemic and with all the rules, Janiz is an extraordinary great adviser, she gives you all the details and updates, even a day before your flights she’ll call you and reminds you make sure you got everything you need to fly.
