You’ll find a lot of good high-level information on activities, sights to see, hotels,shopping, night life and more for most popular destinations around the world. One of the best features of the site is the list of pre-screened travel agents that specialize in various destinations. You’ll find complete bios of each agent and more about their experience in their specialized destination. All around, Concierge is a great place to get a feel for various destinations and begin planning your trip.
Upside: Great general information about a wide array of destinations and a great list of agents who can help make your vacation even better.
Downside: Sometimes a bit “too” high-level and annoying pop-up nags to subscribe to Conde Nast.
