    With over 21 years experience of working front line sales for a leading travel company, I've decided to take my career to the next level. Working with global award winning Travel Counsellors has given me the opportunity to have my own franchise, setting my own high standards of both service and product, using my vast experience to deliver a high standard of industry expertise.For you, this will begin at enquiry stage, leading you through some of the options available, you can then settle on which of the tailor-made travel itineraries best suit you. I'll provide personal recommendations where required, all to deliver a service that exceeds your expectations, and travel experience that will leave you with un-forgettable memories.During my 19 years I've acquired some stand out travel experiences, most recently, taking in the stunning natural beauty of the Maldives with my wife, where I was able to fulfil a life long ambition of swimming with manta-ray. Spotting the Big five at South Africa's Shamwari Game reserve along with skydiving over Table Mountain in Cape town, marvelling at the patient craftmanship of the Taj Mahal followed by exploring the backwater's of Southern India to name a few highlights of my travels. Not wanting to keep the world to myself, I've also taken my wife and four children, aged between 8 and 18 to Barbados, Dubai, Thailand and across much of Europe, so I can certainly pre-empt the considerations you'd need to make when travelling with a family. A particularly memorable occasion has to be my shopping and show trip to New York with my two teenage girls, never a dull moment! To list all the places, and diverse cultural experiences I've had will take up half this page, but from the shows and nightlife of Vegas and New York to the Thai markets and Indian temples, I can bring much experience to your tentative enquiry. Over the last 5 years, I've also focused on corporate travel. The challenge of catering for the fast paced high demand is where I come into my own. Finding route and ticket solutions that you'd maybe not see possible with your own planning, I take the strain out of booking business travel, a little more of this is highlighted on my Business travel page via the link.

    Hello and welcome to my page. I have always loved to travel it is quite honestly my favourite thing to do. Another passion is delivering excellent service and by showing you the benefits of the personal touch, I believe I can make booking your trip as enjoyable as the adventure itself.I love ALL travel, city breaks, UK breaks, cruises, skiing, beach breaks, lakes and mountains, long haul, theme parks, theatre - you name it. My husband and I enjoyed long haul travel more pre children, but with them we have had some amazing adventure to Lapland, Florida and Europe. I can't wait to explore more of the world with them! More long haul and a safari is definitely on my list.I manage business travel for clients whose jobs take them away from home, I know how important it is to have a reliable business travel agent. I offer a full service including air, rail, conferencing, interview facilities, hotels, car hire and much more and all bookings are managed efficiently through our app MY TC. I am on hand out of hours to deal with those last minute changes to make the process as smooth and slick as possible. Travel Counsellors offer 24/7 cover for emergencies via me or our duty office. Business travel should not be a hassle and I believe I take the pain away for my clients allowing them to get on with the job in hand.My travel career spans 25 years starting as an apprentice working for a high street agency at 16 and advancing to different levels within the same company. My role as a world travel consultant gave me extensive knowledge of the cruise, wedding and honeymoon sectors so much so I class myself as an expert in these areas. However, I am equally as excited by the challenge of family and couples holidays to absolutely anywhere. If you are looking for a recommendation I am only too happy to help.Taking the hassle out of your travel arrangements is what makes being your own personal travel agent such a joy. I can assist with anything from pre booking your seats and printing boarding passes to securing that special room or organising a large group booking, nothing is too much trouble. 100% financial protection is provided on each and every booking - I know how important it is to book with someone you trust and to have confidence that your money is safe. Booking with me means avoiding the danger of losing money with websites that go in to administration or the all too familiar story of tour operators that collapse. The financial protection I offer free of charge is the best in the industry.Thank you for visiting my page and I look forward to hearing from you soon.Kind regards, Natalie.

    I am Teresa Jones. I’m married with two grown up stepdaughters and 16 year old daughter. After living in London for twenty years I returned to my home county of Nottinghamshire where we now live a very different life in a small friendly village outside the pretty and historic minster town of Southwell.Before I became a Travel Counsellor, I spent twenty-five years in The City working in a demanding role for a global financial services company. Anyone who knows me will tell you that I have an absolute passion for travel. If I’m not actually travelling, I’m talking or reading about it, planning my next trip or advising friends and family with their own adventures. Being a Travel Counsellor and helping others realise their own travel dreams is my ultimate job.From my first ever overseas holiday to Malta aged ten and experiencing the azure waters of The Blue Grotto, eating fresh fish by the harbour and walking the hot and dusty streets of Valletta, I knew I was addicted to travel.Since then, through both work and personal life, I have been fortunate to visit over forty countries. From road trips through California drinking in the sights and the Pinot Noir, to snorkelling in the Maldives with the clownfish, to skiing corduroy slopes under vivid blue Alpen skies, to sunrise safaris spying lions in South Africa or gazing at Sydney Opera House; it would be impossible to choose a favourite. However, Bali and its charming people and Portugal and its vast expanses of golden beaches are both very dear to my heart.My whole career has been spent striving to exceed the expectations of highly demanding corporate clients.

  • Ian Gifford

    01865987310 Chalgrove

    Hello and welcome, my name is Ian Gifford, I live in Chalgrove, near Oxford with my wife Barbara. We have been here for eight years having lived and worked all over the UK. We love this location because of the friendly village community and the fantastic links to the world, with Heathrow only 40 minutes away.My dad encouraged my passion for travel from a very early age, taking me on exciting day trips to London, although I can still remember being too terrified to climb the ladder at the top of the dome of St Paul’s Cathedral!As a teenager, I just wanted to see the world. I completed cycling tours to the West Country and organised school walking tours that led to running a New Forest Youth Hostel. My early career in hospitality ensured a strong appreciation for food and wine, which included running our own hotel and restaurant, that is why I feel local food and drink is an exciting part of travel.Customer Service is part of my passion, going the extra mile, delivering the unexpected, when Covid-19 emerged I worked 24/7 to successfully repatriated all my customers from Australia, Vietnam, Philippines, Costa Rica and the Maldives, often needing to re-route and re-book as a result of restrictions that were emerging all the time. However, this is my approach even without CV-19 it is being there on the end of the phone when the customer needs me or resolving a problem before the customer is even aware. On one occasion, at 11pm, I became aware that Yosemite National Park was about to close, due to fires, my family were due to go two days later, I found alternative accommodation and then called the customer, confirming everything whist they stayed by the pool.For my business customers, I have arranged events for companies including elaborate dining in unusual locations, an amazing firework display and made sure guests got to a Champions League match when all flights were cancelled due to an airport closure. However, with business travel it is all about being available to help plan, manage changes and provide solutions so the customer can concentrate on his priorities.Identifying my favourite destinations is a challenge, however, seeing leaping Mantra Rays off the Pacific coast of Mexico was amazing, and the rustic village restaurant in Pergine Valdarno, Tuscany provided a uniquely warm feeling with other unforgettable experiences such as Samaria Gorge in Crete at dawn, skiing in powder at Verbier, Golf in the Algarve or watching a Grand Prix in Malaysia.Whether it is advising a restaurant on a client’s food allergies or organising a private tour in Rome, making sure your travel plans are exactly how you want them is vital. It is my responsibility to ensure you have first class service, before, during and following your trip.I am here to help, at times convenient to you, some of my clients have been in different time zones and I have planned calls at midnight before now, so if it is better for you to talk in the evenings or at weekends, that is fine with me. I look forward to talking with you soon.

  • John Horsley

    07714 850301 Brighouse

    It's Nice To Meet You Hello! I’m John. I have been a Travel Counsellor for over 5 years now. In that time, I have built a wealth of knowledge and experience about the travel industry that I use daily to help my customers. I love holidays and get a real sense of satisfaction at providing exceptional trips for my customers. WHY USE ME? My customers return to me because I really care about both the customer and customer service. I’m very easy to talk to and discuss ideas with. I pride myself on going above and beyond with every booking, taking the service to the next level. It’s the little things that count; checking you in online, the extra checks to make sure everything is in place for your arrival and that all special requests have been fulfilled and seeing what I can provide for you over and above and beyond your booking. Your holiday is not just another transaction; I am available 24/7 if you need me to sort out any query or request before, during or after travel. WHY TRAVEL COUNSELLORS? With the backing of Travel Counsellors, you are assured of a wider choice of holidays. I am not bound to any operators and I do not have targets which means my only priority is you, the customer, and making sure I find you exactly the right holiday every time. And most importantly, if you book with a Travel Counsellor, all aspects of your holiday are fully protected 100% of the time. And that's guaranteed. Travel Counsellors offer the best financial protection in the industry and it is offered free of charge to all our customers. WHAT HOLIDAYS DO I LIKE? I am asked to book all sorts of holidays and trips, but I am building a reputation for bespoke travel. This goes above and beyond the usual holidays and involves searching out solutions to personally create the right itineraries, travel and accommodation for those wanting to do something a bit different. I love an adventure; over the years I have organised my own wildlife expeditions including seeing the “Big Five” in Kenya, South Africa and Botswana as well as Black Bears in the Canadian Rockies, Orangutans in Borneo and Pandas in China. Still to do are tigers in India and Black Gorillas in Rwanda. I’ll keep you posted… So, if you like the idea of having one dedicated person manage the whole of your booking with the care and attention it deserves, I’d love to hear from you.

I've worked in the travel industry for over 20 years ago, starting with Thomson Holidays (now Tui) and then the good old days of teletext holidays …how things have changed! I spent 15 years as an event and wedding planner working at some of the most prestigious hotels and venues, including Weston Park in Shropshire. I have arranged over 1000 weddings and lost count of the number of private parties, corporate events and activity days. I returned to travel in 2012 specialising in weddings abroad and luxury travel, and then started my travel business with Travel Counsellors at the end of 2019. There were so many reasons why I chose Travel Counsellors as my business partner. Spanning over 25 years they are a multi-award winning company with offices worldwide and support which is second to none. Their ‘with us it's personal‘ promise struck a chord with me too. My clients are my business and I treat every booking or enquiry as if it were my own. I look after your booking right to the very end. If you need to make a change to your itinerary, or add on excursions whilst you are on holiday, I can do that for you - a true travel concierge service. I relax knowing that you have arrived safely at your destination, and then again when you arrive back home. I work from home so there are no call centres to deal with. This also means that I’m available to discuss your plans at a time to suit you including evenings and weekends. I’m based in Staffordshire but have clients all around the UK. If you are close by we can meet for a chat over a coffee or glass of fizz…and for those further away then calls, emails and face to face via zoom etc is just fine.... whatever works best for you! I have access to thousands of trusted travel providers at my fingertips and as a company we continue to increase the direct contracts we have with hotels and specialist suppliers around the world. This means that I can personally tailor your plans knowing that I am working directly with the local suppliers, and ensuring that I'm securing the most competitive rates for you. Travel Counsellors offer the best financial protection in the industry and whilst you are on holiday we also have a 24 hours Duty Office to assist with difficulties out of hours, so you are always in contact with a person. For piece of mind your holiday is also fully protected financially through ATOL. So now you know who I am, I look forward to hearing from you and sending you off on your next adventure....wherever it may be

  • Dave Jopling

    0845 058 7050 York

    Hi My name is Dave Jopling and I have recently joined Travel Counsellors working from my home town of York. I have lived in the York area on and off for over 40 years. If I have ever had to move away for whatever reason I have always had the urge to move back as it's just a great place to live and work.I have been employed in the Travel Industry for 34 years in both the Leisure and Business travel sectors. During this time I have lived and worked all over the country and have been providing all the various travel products from the more complicated flight itineraries with hotels and car hire etc to passport and visa information and everything in between. Because of a combination of my Business Travel background and my knowledge gained over the years of air fare structures and the independant hotel rates that Travel Counsellors have at their fingertips I firmly believe that I can give a new dimension to the long haul leisure travel market.You can stay for as long as you want or even extend stays if you so prefer and you can travel in First, Business or Economy class or any combination and much more. It really does open new doors for you. I have been very fortunate over the years due to being in the travel industry to have travelled all over the world. These experiences have enabled me to gather invaluable knowledge on a vast array of destinations. My favourite part of the world is definitely the Far East as it has such an array of different experiences. You can just relax on some of the best beaches in the world or you can shop 'till you drop in places such as Hong Kong, Singapore, Kuala Lumpur or Tokyo. Anything is possible.With Travel Counsellors you have an organisation with global buying power, security, reliability and a name you can really trust. I think the service you will receive, you will find is second to none.If you need any more information about either myself or Travel Counsellors, please either email or telephone me on the details above. I look forward to hearing from you soonKind RegardsDave

    Welcome to Travel Counsellors! It's a real pleasure to introduce myself and I'm really looking forward to hearing about your travel aspirations!I had one dream as a young man: Travel the world to learn and experience as much about this beautiful planet as I possibly could. I began that quest by achieving a Diploma in Travel Studies and in the years that passed, the desire to fulfil my mission never diminished. I 'backpacked' whenever and wherever the mood took me and built my industry knowledge working extensively within the world of travel agencies, airlines and tour operations over many years. Experiencing life living in places such as Australia, Greece, Cyprus and 9 years in Spain only served to enhance this knowledge.Fast forward to present day and, as an independent Travel Counsellor, I now have the opportunity to give something back to my customers. Relying on decades of experience to help them choose, plan and execute their travel dreams is the greatest of pleasures. I care about what and where they book with me and I just love listening to their stories when they return home. Your holiday is my holiday too. My service is bespoke. It is tailored to those looking for a service that gives them an experience from the very first conversation and removes the 'transactional' nature of booking a trip. I have access to fares and pricing that are not always available to traditional agents and you're not restricted by 'pre-packaged' deals, which don't always fully cater for what you really want. Knowing that someone cares about your plans and is there for you throughout the whole process, brings you a service that is second to none.Finally, a Travel Counsellor booking is 100% financially protected. No ifs, no buts! Just peace of mind from the very beginning.Take a look at some of the great itineraries below for inspiration and/or send me a message about where your travel dreams are leading you next. I'd love the opportunity to talk with you about how I can help you turn them into a reality alongside industry leading service.

    Sharon Messett

    01580 848640 Tenterden

    My name is Sharon Messett and I have more than 30 years’ experience in the travel industry, including 20 working as a Travel Counsellor. It’s a role I love, as it gives me the chance to embrace my passion for travel on a daily basis, exploring new destinations through my research as well as returning to old favourites. I find it enormously rewarding helping my clients find the best experience possible for the type of holiday they want, whether it be a ‘flop and drop’ family beachside holiday, or a luxury retreat.I have been fortunate to have travelled extensively myself; including trips to Australia, New Zealand, the South Pacific, Southeast Asia, Africa, North America and the Caribbean, and have gained intimate knowledge of these long-haul destinations. Now that I have children, I am enjoying discovering more short-haul destinations around Europe including some amazing road trips with them to central Europe. For me, one of the best things about travel is the freedom that it gives you – travel brings anticipation, education, excitement and the joy of adventure into your life!TRAVEL WITH A CONSCIENCE My travels have also shown me the positive and negative effects of tourism; at its best when it is supporting communities who rely on visitors for their income, and at its worst where over-tourism has had a detrimental effect on locals and the environment. Over time, this has given me the opportunity to reflect, and I have realised that I have a growing interest in sustainable tourism. I would like to help you to find holidays and destinations which are amazing experiences and have a minimal impact or preferably offer positive environmental footprints.Travelling sustainably and responsibly is becoming increasingly more and more important for many travellers, and as your Travel Advisor I can carefully consider how to assist in building your perfect itinerary to make your trip kind to both people and our planet. I believe that sustainable travel also helps us to have more authentic travel experiences – visiting unspoilt places and immersing in the local culture is one of my passions, and one that I share with many of my clients.BOOK WITH ME AND I’LL LOOK AFTER YOU When it comes to travel, it’s important to know that you are booking with someone dependable, who you can trust, and who understands your precise needs every step of the way. The close relationships I build with each and every one of my clients, and the levels of care I can provide as your Travel Advisor, means that no-one can look after you better than I will. It makes me extremely proud to know that so many of my customers have recommended my services to their family, friends and associates. Being an independent Travel Advisor means I am not restricted to using only major holiday companies and allows me to create the perfect trip for you. Booking through Travel Counsellors also gives you security, as your money is completely financially protected against supplier failure by ATOL and the unique Travel Counsellors Trust.LOOKING AHEAD – PLAN YOUR GETAWAY I am sure that many of you, like me, want to plan a holiday for 2025/2026 - to have something to look forward to. Let me provide you with first-hand expertise and information to inspire your next adventure and let's see where the next year takes you.If you are unable to travel yet, then the next best thing to travelling is talking about it and planning it. Therefore, if you can't yet go where you want to just yet, let's discuss your plans instead. Please give me a call or send me an email and we can have a chat!

    Karen Howarth

    01663 460166 High Peak

    Hello, I’m Karen, your personal Travel Counsellor and I am here to turn your travel dreams into memorable, meaningful adventures.With a lifelong curiosity about the world, I yearn for journeys that feel out of the ordinary, whether it's a short hop from home or a long-haul adventure. I am especially drawn to places where you can experience local culture first hand and connect with the people and stories that make a destination unique. For me, travel is as much about conversations over coffee, shared experiences and chance encounters as it is about famous views and landmarks.Some of my most vivid memories are from South America, particularly Bolivia and Peru: scaling Huayna Picchu and looking down over magical Machu Picchu; wandering though the white walled streets of Arequipa; navigating the chaos of La Paz and descending into a working Bolivian mine to meet the miners, taking coca leaves as a small gesture of thanks and respect. Closer to home, the experience of sailing through the Norwegian Fjords and the stunning islands of the Stockholm archipelago will stay with me forever. These kinds of journeys, where culture, scenery, people and emotion all weave together, shape the way I design holidays for my clients. I believe that extraordinary experiences can be found both near and far and I love a city break. Ask me, I am always happy to introduce people to places that feel fresh and surprising.Why not consider: Matera, Italy. With its honey-coloured cave dwellings, rock-hewn churches and slow pace of life, it's great for foodies, history lovers and photographers. Timisoara, Romania. Often compared to Vienna but with far fewer crowds, filled with pastel squares, quirky cafes and a vibrant creative arts scene. Tblisi, Georgia. A vibrant food and wine culture meets strong local traditions including the sulphur baths where locals love to meet and chat to visitors and Narikala Fortress which you can visit by cable car to take in stunning views of the old town. Trieste, Italy. You can enjoy a seafront stroll and visit the grand coffee houses in a city shaped by Italian, Slavic and Austro-Hungarian influences. Of course, I also love the UK! Challenge me to find you a new experience without even leaving the country.One activity which brings people together is cruising. Unpacking once and waking up each day somewhere new to explore is a joy. Whether you want a luxurious ocean cruise suitable for a multi-generational group or a more intimate river cruise suitable for 2, I will help you find ships and itineraries which match your style and personality. My own bucket list dream is an expedition cruise that combines remote landscapes and remarkable wildlife with expert guides and the comfort of being beautifully looked after on board.As your personal travel consultant, my focus is on creating a trip that feels thoughtful, relaxed and absolutely made for you, with the planning made effortless. Whether your ideal escape is a luxury beach break, an exciting winter skiing trip, a cruise, an immersive cultural journey, a solo escape or a family adventure, I take the time to understand what really matters to you, then look after every detail. Sharing travel experiences is what truly makes me happy, and I want to make your trip the best it can be.When you book with me as your Travel Counsellor, you also benefit from excellent financial protection, the reassurance of a 24/7 Duty Office and the convenience of the myTC app, which keeps all your travel plans and documents in one place.If you are starting to think about your next trip, please get in touch and I will help bring your dreams to life.

    Helen Maltby

    01908 980018 Milton Keynes

    Hi! My name is Helen and I live in Milton Keynes. I set up my own travel business after leaving my previous career in teaching. I wanted to do something that made people smile and after all, that is what holidays are all about. I was also blown away by the ethos of the company and the fact that with Travel Counsellors, it IS personal. I won’t try and sell you the holiday that a specific company wants me to sell. I will help to create the holiday that YOU want instead. As a Travel Counsellor I have access to destinations and experiences all over the world.I absolutely love cruising – both travelling and selling. A cruise is also fantastic way to holiday and I particularly love Northern European cruising and all things Scandinavia. I am also proud to be a member of CLIA (Cruise Lines International Association) with Masters Accreditation.If you've thought cruising is only for the older generation then it is time to rethink. My favourite, and most sailed cruise line is Disney Cruise Line. If you think they are just for families, then think again - the best cruise I did without the children was a Disney one :)One of my other top destinations is the Maldives which I visited for my honeymoon - absolute bliss! My favourite city destination is New York and I can give great advice on Broadway shows to see while you are there. One of my most travelled parts of the world is Scandinavia and whether you want to visit in the summer or winter, want a nature or city break, I can advise you on where to go and when.I can also help if you need advice when travelling with autistic adults or children. I am autistic and my son who is also autistic has grown up going to Disney and cruising. Both of these types of holiday can be scary for someone who is autistic and I can help you navigate things so you can be best prepared for your holiday.However, whatever you are interested in, big or small, I can help as I have a team of experts around me to draw on. I will listen to what you want and then create an itinerary that is perfect for you. I think the personal touch is really important and if you are local then I’m more than happy to meet you in your home or your office - or even a nice coffee shop. As I’m not in the high street I am free to work around you.By booking with Travel Counsellors you are getting access to a wider range of choice than you will with high street travel agents. You will also be dealing with me rather than a call centre. I will take all of the stress and strain out of the holiday from searching for amazing excursions to checking you in at your resort. We have people on the ground at resorts all over the world who will be there to help you 24/7: they are locals who really understand the destination. Should something go wrong you can be assured that our 24/7 team based in Manchester will sort you out if you can’t get hold of me.We are ATOL affiliated and have the best financial protection in the industry – during the pandemic every Travel Counsellor customer received a 100% refund. No vouchers here!I look forward to helping you create your next set of memories and fulfilling your travel dreams.

    07534072284 Chester

    Hello! My name is Mark and I’m your Travel Counsellor based in Chester.On this page you will find out more about me. Why I do what I do, what my core business values are and much more!I grew up in The Netherlands and I have been very fortunate in that I have visited all 7 continents before turning 30. I have travelled in many different ways from more adventurous off the beaten track journeys, to taking it slow in gorgeous seaside resorts. I have met amazing people along the way (including my now wife!), seen the most beautiful and dramatic landscapes in New Zealand for example. I got stunned by how raw and real the wildlife is in Africa and Antarctica of course (really feels like you’re in a David Attenborough documentary)! And I’ve been blown away by how beautiful cultures can breathe through generations around Asia and South America, for the better..In turn travel has made me want to inspire others to see the places they dream of. To experience travel in so many ways has given me the advantage to really identify what my clients are looking for when you describe what your wish-list looks like. In Chile is where I started my career in the travel industry. I now have a vast experience in creating entire Round The World journeys, completely tailored holidays from start to finish, island retreats, Honeymoons, Safaris, active adventure holidays and more.After 7 years of experience in the travel industry, creating bespoke experiences for an abundance of happy customers, I felt it was time to really start doing it my way. Working for a high street travel company I always felt a little held back in what I was able to do for my clients, now that is a thing of the past! As your Travel Counsellor, I am impartial to any supplier and I have all the means to always go the extra mile and do right by you. I promise you the best service from our first contact, until you come back and want to plan your next experience.After all, life is about creating experiences, right?Whether you have big plans or only a small idea, let me know.

Before becoming a Travel Counsellor I worked for over 15 years in the city on a busy trading floor for Bank of America, a big American investment bank selling Fixed Income products.

Friends and family have sought my holiday advice for years knowing I do that extensive, in-depth research, demand high quality, expect good value, love lots of luxury and I know just how important holidays are!But here we are 7 years on drawing on those years of experience in booking my own family holidays - young kids to now demanding teens, I know exactly how important it is to ensure it meets everyone’s requirements. We’ve had many luxury holidays in Dubai, Oman, Maldives, Abu Dhabi and had equally amazing experiences, making memories travelling extensively in Europe and travel annually to Greece (as my father is Greek) so that country is dear to me. Whilst luxury has its place it’s also nice to experience the culture and the authenticity of a country too. I work from home, I have many local clients but so many are based all over the UK, some are abroad too. With 24/7 Duty office support, in-depth training Travel Counsellors and my growing passion for travel and lovely clients I really have the dream job! I’m available throughout the day and evenings - even if I’m not at my desk I will always respond quickly so I can help you start making your exciting holiday plans without delay!

    I’m Laura, your personal Travel Counsellor, mum of two and long-time travel obsessive. I’m here to design journeys that really reflect you, your life and the way you like to travel.I’ve lived and worked abroad and fallen for places far away from the usual tourist spots. Over the years I have learned that the best memories come from real, everyday life; the tiny café you stumble across, the train ride where the landscape changes outside your window, the welcome you get in a small, family-run hotel. I love connecting my clients with those kinds of experiences, in ways that support local people and respect the places you visit.Slow, immersive travel is what I love most. I design trips so you can really get to know each place you visit, rather than rushing from sight to sight. My holidays are rich in local flavour and culture, but still feel comfortable, relaxed and easy to enjoy. Wherever possible, I look for choices that are more thoughtful for the planet too, whether that is travelling by rail, staying longer in fewer places or choosing partners who care about their communities.Family adventures are a big part of what I do. As a mum of two, I know the best trips with children are the ones where everyone gets to explore, try something new and still have space to unwind. I plan journeys that feel like genuine adventures, not routine holidays, with memories you will talk about for years.When you book with me, you are looked after from the first idea to the moment you arrive back home. You have one dedicated point of contact, recommendations shaped around what you love, and the reassurance of travelling with an experienced Travel Counsellor by your side every step of the way.If you are ready for something a bit different, I would love to help you plan your next adventure.

    Travel has been my life for the past 20 years and hopefully it will be the same for the next 20! I could eat, sleep and breathe the word and I’ve been fortunate enough to travel quite extensively over the USA and Europe. In fact, I could categorically say Florida is my second home, having been there at least once a year, for the past 20 years! I have worked very closely over the years with Disney, Universal and SeaWorld and would be absolutely delighted to create you a bespoke itinerary for your Florida adventure as I know only too well what a daunting experience this can be for first-time visitors. I am also no stranger to New York, Las Vegas, San Francisco, Los Angeles, New Orleans, Dallas, Chicago and even St Louis (and yes, I did lie beneath the arch)!But of course, it’s not all about the USA, Europe is another big favourite of mine – particularly Spain, France (where I was lucky enough to study) and the Greek Islands. I also visited for the first time this year Mexico and it was certainly love at first sight. Those beaches just blow your mind! In fact, if you are looking for something special in Mexico I will let you into a little secret - please just ask and I will be delighted to share!So hopefully you can sense I am passionate about travel and nothing would give me more pleasure than to create the perfect, bespoke holiday package just for you. Wherever and whatever that may be, I will make sure you get the best possible options to suit your budget. So, what are we waiting for? The world is your oyster and I am here to help you make those special, lifelong memories!

    Whether you are planning a chic city break, family getaway, honeymoon escape or once in a lifetime adventure I am here to make the whole experience seamless.I pride myself on offering genuine advice you can trust every time. No matter how big or small, I always manage your trip with the same attention to detail as I would my own. Through the years I have built up a 'little black book' of hotel, supplier and airline connections, all my contacts are invaluable when offering my clients that extra VIP touch or requesting that room with the best view.I have been a travel agent for over 20 years, but my real passion for travel started as a child. Before my five siblings and I were born, my parents travelled extensively. I can remember sitting for hours flicking through the enormous photo albums from their travels throughout Europe and on to Asia. Maybe it was the glamour of the 70s VW Camper set into the Italian Alps, or my parents in their matching Ray-Ban’s at the top of the Great Wall... either way, I was hooked and couldn’t wait to travel the world myself!I joined the industry as an apprentice in a high street Thomas Cook store in Sussex. Within two years I was working in their City of London flagship store where I won a Customer Service Award. After five years at Thomas Cook I took the leap into an independent leisure and business travel agency in Blackfriars - they were later acquired by an American travel management company. Here I ran the Luxury Leisure department, where I booked tailor-made leisure and business trips till I left five years later. During this time, I took the opportunity to work from the New York head office to expand on my global knowledge. Prior to starting my business I worked in Roadshow, Events & Marketing roles across different financial services sectors in the City of London. As well as time spent at a boutique hotel specialist and luxury villa agent.I can’t wait to help plan your next adventure, whether that’s a hopper flight to Dublin for business or a round the world cruise, you can rest assured you are 100% financially protected through Travel Counsellors Financial Trust and ATOL.I am contactable 24/7 so please do pick up the phone or drop me a message to chat over ideas and inspiration for your next trip.

    01243969100 West Sussex

    Hello, I’m Sharon.I live in Arundel, West Sussex with my husband and our gorgeous Cyprus rescue Poodle who has travelled extensively with us on nearly every mode of transport and has held 3 different passports – Cypriot, UK and France. He is most certainly quite the little globetrotter.My love for travel began with my very first flight at just three years old. From that moment, I knew this was the industry I wanted to be part of. Over the past 40+ years, I’ve worked across many sectors of the travel and tourism industry, gaining invaluable experience & knowledge , of most elements that make up your holiday such as airlines - both on the ground and in the air, cruise lines, hotels - as well as co-owning a coach travel business for 20 years with my husband, and owning a Chambres d'hotes in Brittany, France .I grew up in beautiful South Africa, moving to the UK in my mid twenties. During my childhood, due to the size of South Africa, it was never necessary to travel abroad, so as a family we travelled extensively within the country. As well as visits to smaller countries in Southern Africa such as Botswana, Lesotho, Swaziland and Zimbabwe. As a young adult, after a few years with South African Airways, I then embarked onto my travel agent journey, selling inbound as well as outbound holidays. So my knowledge of South Africa is extensive, should this be a destination you are interested in. I have also lived in Brittany, France, and my travels have taken me to incredible destinations including the Caribbean, Canada, New York, Iceland, Mauritius, Dubai, and India — to name just a few. I also have a passion for cruising - where else can you be in a luxury hotel, unpack once, yet visit multiple destinations. What I love most about my job is helping bring a customer’s travel vision to life. I’m passionate about creating unforgettable holidays that are as unique as each of my clients. From our first conversation, we’ll talk about your ideal trip — your likes, dislikes, and those special little touches that will make it truly memorable. From there, I’ll craft a bespoke itinerary just for you. Whether you’re dreaming of relaxing on a beach, exploring a vibrant city, or setting sail on a luxury cruise, I’m here to help you every step of the way — from the moment you book until you return home. And with 24/7 support, you're never on your own.With my exceptional customer service, care, attention to detail, and the backing of Travel Counsellors — a globally recognised and trusted brand — you’ll have complete financial protection and total peace of mind.So, whether it’s a cosy UK getaway or a grand, round-the-world adventure, I’ll work closely with you to make sure your trip is everything you’ve dreamed of — and more.For me, travel isn’t just about getting from A to B. It’s about the stories, the memories, and the joy of discovery. I’m your personal Travel Advisor, here to turn your travel dreams into reality.

My favourite part of the world remains the Far East; not least because it brings back happy memories from my honeymoon in Burma but also due to wonderful trips to Cambodia, Borneo and Thailand amongst others. The levels of service, care and attention to detail that you receive as a guest in the Far East always amazes me and always has me longing to go back.In addition to the Far East I have travelled through India, Australia and New Zealand, the Amazonian rain forest and the Masai Mara. The two most striking places that I have visited must be the awe-inspiring Angkor Wat in Cambodia and Utah’s Monument Valley – not least due to its complete contrast to nearby Las Vegas.It’s not just exotic holidays that I can help you with.

    01702 490011 Attica

    Welcome — I’m Tamara, Your Personal Travel Counsellor 🌍Travel has always been an important part of my life. My passion for discovering new places and cultures began at a young age; travelling to many different places around the world with my family. My Dad was a tour operator and an excellent holiday planner! We travelled all over the Middle East, the UK, USA and Europe. Every destination brought unforgettable memories. I have many memories of visiting unique places, being immersed in stunning landscapes, connecting with our family who are scattered all over the world, visiting old and making new friends, observing local traditions place to place and enjoying delicious food (my stomach was always the top priority and still is!) Those experiences became the foundation for my love of travel and future career. A little about me; I studied Law and graduated with a Masters from UCL in 2007. I soon realised my heart belonged elsewhere and joined my family’s travel business, where I organised group pilgrimages around the world to many destinations. Working closely with group organisers and leaders, I gained invaluable experience in designing specialised, meaningful travel experiences; from sacred journeys to cultural adventures with groups ranging from 15 to 400 people. I have developed an extensive knowledge and expertise in travel operations and dealing with group bookings and their specific requirements. My own travel highlights include hiking through the desert in the middle of the night to the Dead Sea for the sunrise (and then promptly falling asleep on a rock) exploring the spectacular caves of Frasassi, joining a walk and music evening in Petra, partaking in a Cretan sheep shearing fiesta (complete with copious amounts of meat, wine and improvised music) celebrating the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Mexico, tasting my way through the markets of Nablus, Istanbul and Japan, watching my clients Baptisms in the River Jordan and walking the Via Dolorosa in Jerusalem. I have been very privileged to join and be a part of many of my clients Spiritual journeys over the years. Every experience has shaped how I plan and personalise travel for others; with care, curiosity, empathy and attention to detail. When you book with me, you’ll enjoy a completely personalised service, where I’m with you every step of the way; from our first conversation to the moment you return home. You’ll also have the reassurance of 100% financial protection through ATOL for package holidays and the Travel Counsellors financial Trust for other bookings, 24/7 global customer support, and the peace of mind that comes from booking with an award-winning, 5-star rated company that truly cares. Whether you’re dreaming of a pilgrimage journey, a cultural tour, a retreat or a relaxing family holiday (or a combination of these!) I would love to help make it a reality. I work with groups of 6 people or more. Let’s start planning your perfect journey — together.I look forward to hearing from you!Warm regards, Tamara Your Personal Travel Counsellor / group travel specialist

    John Picken

    01670 284130 Northumberland

    Hi, my name is John and I am a Travel Counsellor based in Blyth on the beautiful Northumberland coast.Are you looking forward to a holiday but don’t want the stress of researching locations, hotels, and flights yourself? Worried about whether those online reviews are reliable or if you’ve missed something important in your itinerary? Do you dream of a trip tailored entirely to you, so you can simply relax and enjoy the experience?If so, you’ve come to the right place. My mission is to provide a completely personal service – from your very first enquiry right through to the moment you return home – so all you need to do is pack your bags and have the time of your life. I’ll take care of everything: researching and planning, securing the best arrangements, thinking through the little details that make a big difference, and being there whenever you need me.As a vegan myself, I understand how challenging it can be to travel with specific dietary requirements – especially when hotels or destinations aren’t set up for them. That’s why I can create holidays that take the stress out of finding suitable dining options, whether that’s securing vegan-friendly hotels, arranging restaurant recommendations, or building itineraries that celebrate plant-based cuisine.I also believe travel should have a positive impact, both on you and the world around you. I can help you choose options that support local communities, promote ethical wildlife experiences, and reduce environmental impact – so your holiday is not only memorable for you, but also meaningful for the people and places you visit.My own travel experiences span from childhood holidays in the UK to multi-destination adventures in South East Asia and beyond. I believe every holiday – whether big or small, hot or cold, adventurous or relaxing – should be special. By taking the time to talk with you at a time that suits you, I’ll design a trip that reflects what truly matters to you, filled with the kind of moments you’ll look back on fondly for years to come.Alongside my personal expertise, I have access to a global network of fellow Travel Counsellors and local specialists, so wherever you want to go, I can handcraft a quote packed with hidden gems and authentic experiences.
