A clear travel brief helps the planning conversation start in the right place. Your dates, priorities and practical needs matter more than having a finished itinerary.
Start with the essentials
List the countries or cities you are considering, preferred travel dates, number of travellers and approximate budget. If dates are flexible, say so.
Describe the experience
Share the kind of trip you want: relaxation, cultural discovery, nature, a business visit or a family holiday. Mention mobility, dietary and accommodation needs where relevant.
Know what will be confirmed later
Supplier availability, final pricing, documentation rules and cancellation conditions may change. Ask for these to be included in the proposal before commitments are made.
This is general background information. Travel rules, cargo regulations, phytosanitary requirements and supplier availability depend on your location and circumstances. Confirm with appropriate authorities and advisers.
