Travel smarter in retirement with a trusted travel agent

Are you retired and ready to book your next trip? Chances are, the holidays you’re looking for now are very different from the ones you took in your 20s, but getting them right is just as important.

At Chirn Park Travel, we work with so many retirees and love helping people plan trips that truly light up their hearts and minds. We understand how valuable it is to have a trusted Gold Coast travel agent by your side, someone who makes the whole process easier and far more enjoyable.

Here are five reasons why working with a travel agent helps you travel smarter:

Personalised itineraries – designed just for you

Working with a travel agent ensures you get everything you need for your holiday. At Chirn Park Travel, we tailor holidays to your mobility, comfort levels, interests and pace. We can find accessible accommodation options and slower schedules, or plan more active itineraries if that’s what you’re looking for. 

Our travel recommendations are tailored to you, not the generic deals you’ll find online. We can personalise your guided tours, transfers and cultural experiences to match exactly what you enjoy.

Access to special travel deals, upgrades

Travel agents have insider knowledge and can negotiate rates and access exclusive offers. There’s the potential for upgrades, added inclusions and bonus perks when you book through Chirn Park Travel.

At our Gold Coast travel agency, you could say we’re well-travelled, between us, we’ve explored more than 125 countries and experienced destinations first-hand across the world. We can match you with unique experiences and hidden gems you won’t find in a standard online search.

Support when plans change

When you book a trip online, unexpected changes or cancellations can be stressful. A travel agent takes that pressure off, because we’re here if you miss a connection, lose your luggage or need help sorting out a booking. 

We act as the go-between with airlines, cruise lines and tour companies, so you’re never left dealing with problems on your own. We can also assist if medical issues come up during your trip, giving you peace of mind knowing you have support every step of the way.

Stress-free planning

Even if you love researching destinations, comparing hotels and crafting your own itineraries, planning a trip can still be time-consuming; and it’s easy to miss out on options, upgrades or clever ways to enhance your journey. Working with a travel agent means you can enjoy all the fun parts of planning and have a professional in your corner to refine the details, check for better value, and ensure every element works seamlessly together.
From flights and transfers to tours and accommodation, everything is coordinated in one place and curated into a clear, stress-free itinerary. Booking with a travel agent doesn’t replace your planning – it elevates it. You get the joy of designing your trip, with the added confidence that nothing has been overlooked and that you’re getting the best possible experience for your time and budget.

All your safety, insurance and travel requirements sorted

A travel agent can guide you on insurance options available for retirees. At Chirn Park Travel, we help you with passports, visas, vaccinations and entry requirements. We’ll step in to ensure your documentation is correct and compliant, reducing the risk of unexpected issues when you’re travelling. 

Book your next holiday with a trusted Gold Coast travel agent

When you’re retired, the last thing you want is a stressful or overwhelming experience when booking a holiday. Having a Gold Coast travel agent by your side gives you more confidence and takes away the worry and uncertainty. We’ll help ensure your holiday runs smoothly, from the initial planning stages right through to your return.

At Chirn Park Travel, we offer personalised advice and support that is friendly and local. We take the time to understand what you want from your trip, so you can travel feeling relaxed and completely looked after.
