It's Nice To Meet You
My name is Anita Devonport and I am a Travel Counsellor based in Cheshire.
Previous to this I have worked as a Manager at Carrier Travel in Alderley Edge and then worked as one of the Directors at Worldwide Escapes. In total I have over 25 years of travel experience.
I have a passion for travel which began when sailing around the world whilst working on the cruise ships: Norwegian Cruise Lines, Crystal Cruises and Seabourn Cruises to name a few.
I have gained extensive knowledge of many countries worldwide by travelling and experiencing dream destinations such as Caribbean, Indian Ocean, Middle East, Thailand, China, South Africa, Kenya, Canada, Burma, USA and Europe. One of my favorite destinations is the Maldives and I am fortunate to experience twenty of their islands so far!
I have a fantastic reputation in the travel industry which has helped me build great links throughout the world to ensure my clients requests are met to the highest standards. When organising your holiday I will be your trusted friend, there to save you time and hassle and even to arrange those special requests which are sure to make all the difference.
My business is about offering a bespoke personal service no matter what the enquiry: flights, packages, honeymoons, business travel and tailor-made. I also have experience dealing with events companies where discretion is paramount
Why book with me?
Because Travel Counsellors is an award winning international franchise with global buying power and most importantly the best financial protection in the business. We have the highest loyalty score in the world. I am always available at a time to suit you.
My favourite quote would have to be:
“The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page.”

Anita was wonderfully helpful when we encountered flight cancellations at Funchal airport recently due to bad weather. She immediately sprung into action when Jet2 had no option but to ground all the flights at Funchal Airport due to bad winds. All passengers were queuing and it was carnage but Anita arranged two rooms back at our previous hotel and called to say get out of the queue as you are going back to your hotel. We flew home the following day. Fabulous service!

Lockdown has been extremely hard for many businesses especially small shop owners, hospitality and leisure. As we start living a normal life again, I believe it’s really important to support small businesses. Anita Devonport is part of the travel councellors group. She is absolutely brilliant at understanding your holiday needs, has so much experience and knows many destinations personally. In Covid times her value is second to none, the relationships she has in the business has enabled her to solve any issues that Covid has thrown her clients way. I cannot recommend her enough!

Our Travel Counsellor Anita curated a wonderful bespoke tour for us to Argentina and Brazil this spring, the first half of which we loved . Sadly, due to the covid pandemic, we had to cut our trip short and returned early whereupon Anita went into bat on our behalf and secured us a substantial cash refund for which we were very grateful. (Our personal travel insurance company were unhelpful to say the least.)
Thank you Anita for your exceptional efforts. We were gutted not to complete our journey and will be seeking your help for future holidays.

Anita came very highly recommended so it was a very easy decision to work with her on our holiday plans for Christmas 2016. After an initial discussion, she identified three Countries for us to consider; we then short listed to South Africa and the plans began! Anita made excellent recommendations on the routes we should take, accommodation and also activities in the local area for my Son and I to participate in. She took care of everything with exceptional attention to detail; she offers a very personable service and always responds quickly and friendly. Once our booking was made, Anita’s service didn’t stop there! She met for lunch to go through the itinerary and documents we needed and very kindly bought my son a scrap book and pen so he could keep track of our exciting trip.
Although we were away over the Christmas period, Anita was still contactable. This was really appreciated, as we unfortunately had a few flight delays which were out of everyones control but Anita arranged accommodation, new flights, car hire changes etc. where needed. She was also at the end of the phone for moral support, it was a big trip for us to undertake but we were in the best of hands. We will be looking at where Anita recommends for Christmas 2017 and if my son has his way….a summer holiday too!

Anita has been exclusively making our travel arrangements for many years.

Her knowledge of all aspects of travel is encyclopaedic. Couple this with her enthusiasm and attention to detail and you have the perfect travel representative. She is always available to make emergency arrangements wherever they occur (Singapore/Istanbul to mention two) and does so with alacrity and good grace, whatever the time of day or night.
