This is very useful in hard to reach areas, examples: Prudhoe Bay in Alaska or Uyuni salt flats in Bolivia. You can go there yourself, no one is stopping you, but there's no infrastructure and basically no people for hundreds of miles. And I doubt it will ever change unless the infrastructure gets developed in those areas.
- ghaff 5y agoYes. It helps to have local knowledge. And, yes, there's a lot more of that on the web than there was twenty-some years ago. But I'm still willing to pay for a professional who has first-hand knowledge about an area that has pretty fragmentary information online. No. I'm probably not going to pay a professional to plan my trip to NYC unless it has some very specific niche focus that they're expert in. But less traveled areas? Sure, if there's an appropriate pro available.
