Domestic travel agents, as the name suggests, cater to the exclusive needs of the domestic traveler. They are directly or indirectly linked to international travelers, when it comes to dedicated sightseeing and accommodation. Like their international counter parts, domestic travel agents also work from within a network that is both, versatile and extensive. They enable the locals and the international traveler to explore the beauty of a particular country and are excellent resources when the endeavor is to access remote areas.

The domestic travel agents tie up with hotels and air/road/inland waterway/rail travel services and operate from the dedicated travel desks located at any of the lodging options. The domestic travel agents offer the services of trained professionals, whose sole responsibility is to ensure that the locale chosen is explored to the maximum and in style, depending of course on the budget. Being more localised, the domestic travel agent should have a personal focus, lightening the travel package with night life options, fine wine boutique bars and unique coffee shops. The more travelling stories that are told about famous film stars or anyone of notoriety who has visited the place, the more the agent is trusted. The travel agents tie up with the managements of the various tourist attractions to make sure that every vacationer feels special and cared for.
