It’s true not everyone is as worldly wise as someone who’s travelled to all four corners. And it’s also true that there are no stupid questions.

Still, there are some questions that you should avoid asking travel agents. Sometimes, if given just an extra moment of thought, one of two things will happen — either you’ll answer the question yourself, or you’ll realize it’s a  silly question.

Our vacation experts have heard it all — and some of the questions they get are truly funny. Here are 33 funny questions posed to travel agents on a semi-regular basis:
