Here Are Some Common Questions Travelers Ask Before Booking

Do you charge a service fee?
Never. Beyond the Castle Travel is a fee-free travel agency, meaning you pay the same price as booking direct—often less. Thanks to exclusive advisor promotions, group rates, and bonus perks like onboard credits or free upgrades, our clients get more value without paying extra.
Why should I book with a travel advisor instead of online?
When you book online, you’re on your own. With an advisor, you get expert guidance, exclusive offers, and personal support before, during, and after your trip. We monitor your reservations, watch for price drops, and advocate for you if travel plans change unexpectedly.
What types of cruises do you specialize in?
We plan ocean, luxury, river, and expedition cruises with trusted lines like Viking, Regent, and Quark Expeditions. Whether you prefer a family-friendly sailing, an ultra-luxury experience, or a once-in-a-lifetime adventure, we’ll help you find your perfect voyage.
Do I really need travel insurance?
Yes—travel insurance protects your investment from cancellations, medical emergencies, lost luggage, and delays. As certified advisors, we’ll recommend the right plan for your itinerary so you can travel worry-free.
Can you help with more than cruises?
Absolutely. Beyond the Castle Travel plans land vacations, all-inclusive resorts, honeymoons, faith tours, and sports travel. We also design custom itineraries and group trips tailored to your interests and budget.
Do you work with groups or destination weddings?
Yes. We handle group travel coordination and destination weddings of all sizes, from family reunions to incentive trips. You’ll have one point of contact and a seamless plan for every guest.
Will I get the same price as booking direct?
Yes—and often better. Because of our industry relationships and preferred agency status, you’ll enjoy the same base rates plus extra amenities like onboard credits, free Wi-Fi, or upgraded cabins—without any booking fees.
What if something goes wrong during my trip?
You’ll never have to handle it alone. Our team provides 24/7 traveler support to assist with flight changes, cancellations, or emergencies. As your advocate, we coordinate with suppliers to resolve issues quickly and fairly.
Can you help plan pre- or post-cruise stays?
Absolutely. We can arrange pre- and post-cruise hotels, airport transfers, and guided excursions, so your vacation feels seamless from start to finish. Whether you want to explore Rome before embarkation or unwind on a Caribbean beach afterward, we’ll build the perfect extension.
Do you only work with clients in Pennsylvania?
No. Beyond the Castle Travel serves travelers nationwide through virtual consultations, email, or phone. We combine personal service with modern tools to make planning easy—no matter where you live.
Do you offer onboard credit or extra perks?
Yes. We often have access to exclusive promotions, onboard credits, and bonus amenities through our preferred partnerships with leading cruise lines — including Disney Cruise Line, Norwegian, Royal Caribbean, Princess, and more. Depending on the sailing, you might enjoy added value like free Wi-Fi, specialty dining, or extra onboard credit when you book through Beyond the Castle Travel.
