We also like to experience different places so try to choose a different country, Island or area every time.With all these years of travelling and adventures, I'd like to say that my bucket list has reduced.

I know it can be an overwhelming experience trying to find that perfect 'package' and so that's where I come in.

    Soozie Wilson

    01372 240 056 Surrey

    Hi, I’m Soozie, your personal TC based in Bookham, where I live with my husband, son and our 2 dogs.Travel has been part of my life since I was young, from UK & European family holidays to more exotic adventures in the Far East and Indian Ocean. I even said “I do” in Las Vegas, followed by an unforgettable visit to the Grand Canyon, because I have always believed that travel should be personal, memorable and a little bit different. Over the last 25+ yrs in the industry, I have turned that passion into a career, helping clients create trips that feel truly special, from simple beach breaks to once‑in‑a‑lifetime journeys.My favourite destinations are hard to choose, as every trip is unique, but a few stand out. The Maldives has a big piece of my heart. The white sands, crystal‑clear water and incredible marine life are simply breath-taking. Watching manta rays glide through the water in the evening, spotting baby reef sharks at the water’s edge and snorkelling with colourful fish are memories I will never forget. Even the seaplane transfer feels like the start of the adventure as you fly over tiny islands and land beside the pristine beaches.Mauritius is another firm favourite and one of my top‑selling destinations. Here, you have stunning beaches plus the freedom to explore safely, perhaps by hiring a car and discovering waterfalls, viewpoints and local markets. It is fantastic for weddings, honeymoons and special celebrations - which I can help with.I also have a real love for the Far East. Thailand, with its delicious food, friendly people and mix of culture & beach, is always popular. I work a lot with touring and adventure holidays across Asia, India & Japan, as well as South America and bucket‑list destinations such as Antarctica.Most recently I travelled on an escorted tour of Saudi Arabia and a tour in Jordan, which were both incredible. From ancient sites and dramatic desert landscapes to warm local hospitality and lesser‑known cultural experiences, these trips have really deepened my knowledge of the Middle East. I now love helping clients who are curious about these emerging and more adventurous destinations.As a Travel Counsellor, I am part of an award‑winning company with a unique financial trust, which means everything I book is 100% financially protected. This peace of mind is one of the key reasons I chose to join Travel Counsellors. I have access to a huge range of trusted suppliers and can put together almost any kind of trip: tailor‑made itineraries, escorted tours, adventure and small‑group journeys, Indian Ocean and beach escapes, USA and city breaks, Alaska and cruise, Lapland and winter wonderland breaks, ski holidays and sports travel including cycling and golf.I am also proud to have been selected as a Tour Ambassador within Travel Counsellors, reflecting my particular expertise in touring, adventure and bucket‑list travel. I regularly train with our suppliers, keeping up to date with new tours, routes and best sellers, so I can match you with the right style and pace of trip, whether you are travelling solo, as a couple, with friends or as a family.When you book through me, you support a local small business and gain your own dedicated travel expert. I save you time by doing the research, compare the options for you and design holidays that are tailored to your tastes. Many of the complex tours and combinations I create are not easily found online. I am at the end of the phone, WhatsApp or email, and for local clients I will often hand‑deliver tickets and documents where I can. I can also arrange appointments outside normal office hours to suit your schedule.I genuinely care about getting it right and I love the challenge of finding the perfect holiday, whether that is a relaxing beach, a cultural tour, an epic road trip or a once‑in‑a‑lifetime expedition. If you are starting to dream about your next escape or that big bucket‑list adventure, I would love to help bring it to life.

    Are you feeling a little more positive about travel next year? A number of my clients are calling now to talk about getting away. My passion for travel has led me to the USA many times - last count 35 states - and to Canada, Morocco, Egypt, South Africa, the Middle and Far East, Australia, New Zealand and all over Europe. Over the years of talking with my clients, I believe this love of travel is deep in our blood. During these discussions, I have shared my insights, top tips and secrets to having the holiday of a lifetime.And here is one tip - please check your passport. Those additional months the Passport Office used to add to the new document are not acceptable to other countries. The true expiry date is now exactly 10 years from the issue date.To feed my passion I have been doing quite a few ‘virtual educationals’ (online training given by local tourist boards) to areas I have not visited. Seeing these wonderful places, many of them, like Venice, in a better condition than for decades, has made me appreciate one benefit of this unprecedented time.How have you been feeding your travel passion? What can I do to help you?If you would like to have a chat or share a dream for a special holiday to celebrate life returning to something near normal, please give me a call on 01494 854160.I might not be able to travel with you, but you will always be able to contact me when you travel with the MyTC app, on your phone.PJ

    Hi everyone, Welcome to my page! My name is Gaynor, and I live in Southampton, Hampshire with my new husband, Paul !.From an early age, travel has always been a passion of mine, and whilst I started my working life in Retail, Travel was always a big part of my life - I was always the one out of my girlfriends to look for holidays, the one my parents turned to for 'where shall we go this year' advice, and then latterly the natural choice once I had a family with, 'Mum, can we go here?? ...'

I will look after you from your initial enquiry stage to your return, every step of the way, ensuring the worry, stress and time spent trawling through endless confusing and unfriendly websites becomes a thing of the past !I'm also lucky to be part of an award-winning company that has shown how, and what it means to look after it's clients - we didn't come Top of a recent MoneySavingExpert Poll for nothing!

    Hi, I am Zoltan, an independent travel professional with more than 20 years of experience in the industry, specialising in cruises and tailor‑made short‑ and long‑haul holidays, all designed with a highly personalised approach. I have worked across both sides of the industry: with cruise lines supporting both the trade and the public, and as a cruise and travel specialist working directly with customers. This dual perspective gives me a deep understanding of how to create seamless, exceptional journeys from the first conversation to the moment my clients return home. Among my proudest professional moments is being shortlisted multiple times for the Wave Awards and Cruise Stars Awards. In 2017 I was honoured with a High Commendation for Individual Cruise Consultant of the Year at the Wave Awards. During my 17‑year career with the Fred Olsen Group, I was proud to be among the first to charter river cruises and a Boeing 737 aircraft for 185 guests, as well as to run small escorted cruise holidays since 2014. Most importantly, I built a reputation for delivering meaningful, personalised journeys for both individuals and groups. Since joining Travel Counsellors in 2026, I have felt truly re‑energised in my career, working with a company known for its upscale, refined and highly respected reputation across the UK and beyond. This opportunity gives me the freedom, cutting‑edge technology and expert support to fully express what has always guided my work: instinct, creativity and a deep understanding of what makes each journey truly special. Today, I design bespoke travel experiences that reflect each client’s personality, dreams and lifestyle. For me, travel is not just about destinations, it is about stories, moments and memories that last a lifetime. If you are ready to plan your next journey, I would be delighted to help you create something truly special from start to finish. Contact me today to begin.

    01624 616911 Douglas

    Hello, my name is Steven and thanks for visiting my homepage.I’m based in Douglas, Isle of Man. I have been involved in the travel industry for 30 years, operating across a wide scope of disciplines. From a very young age, travel has always been always been a source of excitement to me. This was precisely a result of my not having the opportunity to do so myself, but having to feed off the globetrotting stories of my neighbours and school friends! Since then my own travels have taken me far afield, across Europe, the Middle East, North and Southern Africa, the Caribbean and Australia. In addition to this I am a keen skier, and have extensive experience of the European scene.Over the years I have discovered that even the most seasoned and worldly travellers can still find the process of sourcing, evaluating and deciding on a holiday or trip, a considerably stressful one. While undoubtedly a positive breakthrough, the internet has become increasingly daunting for some. We are now bombarded with choice, but still left wondering if there's still somehow something magical out there that's hiding from us! Please don't put yourself through all that. Get in touch and we'll make it a pleasure.I'm looking forward to it!

  • Sarah Belbin

    01629 888950 Derbyshire

    Hello and thank you for visiting my web page. With over 25 years experience working within the travel industry I can honestly say that travel is in my blood. As a child my parents lived and worked in the Middle East so together with my siblings we visited many interesting and beautiful countries and so my love affair with travel began.After graduating from University I packed my rucksack and left for America. Together with a friend we worked and travelled down the East Coast following our dreams and creating life long memories. On return to the UK I continued my adventures and applied to become a ski guide in the northern French Alps for Crystal Ski. Like many graduates before me one season led to another and following a year out travelling in Australia and New Zealand I moved to the Austrian Tyrol to work as a customer service manager for TUI Travel. This is where I met my husband and our first daughter was born in the beautiful town of Kitzbuhel. After enjoying the next couple of years surrounded by the breathtaking scenery of The Austrian Alps we made the decision to re-locate back to the UK.I continued to work for the Tui Travel Group as an agent in Matlock, Derbyshire and built up over 13 years service. In 2014 I was awarded Regional Travel Advisor of the year and began to think about broadening my horizons and setting up my own business. As a travel Counsellor I believe in offering truly independent travel advice coupled with outstanding service. Over the years I have built up lasting relationships with my customers and pride myself on designing seamless travel arrangements based on first- hand experience and extensive product knowledge. Whether it’s a fun family holiday to the Balearics, a Caribbean cruise or a bespoke tailor-made tour of China I would love to help you with your plans and bring your dreams to life. “Travel is the only thing you buy which makes you richer” AnonymousI look forward to hearing from you and being an integral part of your journey.Kind Regards Sarah

    Working in travel since 1993, I bring more than 30 years of experience to every holiday I create. For over 25 of those years I have focused on leisure travel, designing everything from relaxed beach escapes and family adventures to complex, once-in-a-lifetime itineraries. I like to say I am a bit of a jack of all trades when it comes to destinations, which means my clients benefit from a broad perspective as well as deep, first-hand knowledge.I launched my Travel Counsellors business in February 2020 and today it delivers an annual turnover of more than £2 million. Corporate travel is my main area of focus, but as our business has grown, so too has our leisure offering. With our expanding team, we now have dedicated colleagues who support my leisure clients, as well as continuing to look after the travel needs of our corporate travellers and their families.Within the team we have specialists across the globe: from South Africa and the wider African continent to the Caribbean, the USA and South America, Asia and Australasia. We also have expertise across a wide range of holiday types, including ski, golf, safari, beach, luxury and premium escapes. So whether you are dreaming of a Maldivian overwater villa, a family ski trip, a self-drive through South Africa or a luxury Caribbean cruise, there will be someone in the team who knows it inside out.What originally inspired me to become a Travel Counsellor was the opportunity to build genuine relationships with my clients. By taking the time to really get to know you, I can understand what truly matters: the kind of hotels you love, how you like to travel, and the little details that make a big difference. That might be arranging a particular room type with a sunset view, planning a surprise for a special celebration, or recommending a seafront restaurant where I know from experience they serve an exceptional steak. These personal touches are simply not something an online booking website can offer.I pride myself on providing a high-touch, friendly and very personal service, handling every stage of your trip from the first idea to your return home. You will have one point of contact who knows you and your preferences, backed up by my growing team and a 24-hour UK-based duty office for those times when I am unavailable or when you need support while you are away.Travel Counsellors as a business has been recognised many times for the way we look after our customers. We are Queens Award winners for Enterprise for the third time, finalists for Luxury Homeworking Business of the Year, and were voted the best travel firm for looking after their customers during the COVID-19 pandemic by readers of MoneySavingExpert. Our strapline is “With us… it’s personal” and I am proud to live that every day, whether I am arranging a complex corporate itinerary or a much-needed family holiday.If you would like some holiday inspiration, access to the best options without the stress of searching, or simply honest advice on where to go next, I would be delighted to help you plan your perfect trip.

    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. I’ve turned these skills to arranging bespoke travel experiences that perfectly match my clients’ requirements. I’m not tied to office hours so happy to speak at a time that suits you.So, whether it be long or short-haul luxury beach breaks; family getaways; exotic adventures; road trips; winter sports; honeymoons; cruises; exquisite city breaks or staycations; I’d be delighted to share my experiences with you to help you plan your next expedition be it near or far.So, what are you waiting for?

    Welcome to my page. Let me tell you a little bit about me...As a Travel Counsellor I'm passionate about travel, and working hand in hand with my clients I can tailor the perfect holiday around you – whether it be a family holiday, a bucket list trip of a lifetime wedding abroad, city break, or even a UK staycation. I just love anything out of the ordinary, and will always take on a challenge. I can also book packages with the major tour operator brands such as Jet 2. 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
