I've worked in the travel industry and customer services for over 30 years. I'm one of those lucky people who work in an industry that is essentially my hobby: travel! I love travel and all things related; be it the foreign culture, traditions, architecture, smells and sounds and, of course, the cuisine. I have travelled extensively so have first-hand knowledge of many worldwide and luxury destinations including the Middle East, Caribbean, Australia, Canada, USA, South Africa, Maldives, Mauritius, Kenya and Morocco, Egypt and many European destinations including multiple Greek islands, Iceland, Italy, Austria, Spain, Portugal, Lapland, and Türkiye. I also have immediate access to a huge circle of colleagues all over the world, so if I can't answer your question, I'm confident someone in the Travel Counsellor community will be able to.I have won many awards and accreditations. Here's a few of my career highlights: TUI New Shop of the Year award 1993 TUI Shop of the Year award 2001 TUI Shop Manager of the Year 2004 Institute of Customer Services (ICS) Solutions Award 2011 Travel Counsellors Nominee Best Newcomer (Leisure) 2013 Awarded Gold Travel Counsellor status Oct 2014 - recognised as one of the top 10% in the company!

I believe in fully understanding my customers’ needs before I set to work, so that I can offer you the best holiday to match those needs. 3 I believe in good old-fashioned customer care. You simply can’t get this if you book online. I would never recommend a holiday that I would not feel happy booking for me and my family. 4. I am available to you when you want me, often when most travel agents are closed. 5. There are so many recent changes to travel these days, I have access to the latest FCDO rules and regulations, country by country, whether you need to complete an e-form before you depart, need a visa, etc... so you don't have to worry about a thing!6. As my business has grown and grown, I now have a small team of experienced (and fabulous) TCs working alongside me who support me in 'behind the scenes' admin duties, and some enquiries. So, when you are thinking about planning your next trip, be it a luxury honeymoon, a city break, safari, ski trip, a cruise, or a round the world trip of a lifetime, just give me the opportunity to quote.

Drew Palmer
Based In West London
0203 582 9520I have over 17 years’ experience as a front-line sales consultant for a leading travel company. Based in Kensington, I worked in the First and Business Class department since 1997, where I managed both corporate and high-end leisure clients’ travel arrangements. This comprehensive service has included flights, accommodation, passport and visa information and relevant immunisation requirements.Over this period, I have built up a strong relationship not only with my clients but also with leading airlines and hotels around the world. I have an extensive knowledge of the aviation industry and how the seemingly complicated fare structures work. I pride myself on simplifying the most complicated itinerary, and will always go the extra mile to exceed my clients’ expectations and requirements.The most rewarding part of my job has been providing nothing less than the full package; an efficient, prompt, accurate and friendly service, no matter how demanding or urgent the request may be.I have travelled widely across the world, and have been lucky enough in my career to have visited many memorable places. Some of the highlights have included hot-air ballooning in Northern Queensland, sand boarding on the dunes in Namibia, viewing glaciers and camping in the High Arctic and crossing 9 time zones on the Trans Siberian Railway. Although beach holidays in the Caribbean and Oman never fail to recharge my batteries!I have lived in London all my life and am now a father of three young children, so my travel is less long-haul, and more UK and European. As a home-based Travel Counsellor I will always be on call and here to assist you with all your travel needs. I look forward to hearing from you and making your travel arrangements as seamless as possible. -
Meher Oliaji

Based In Egham
01784 780054My name is Meher Oliaji, and I learnt one thing from COVID. Working from home is easy. After more than 30 years running my own travel agency, Karnak Travel in Egham, I now have the support and innovative technology to support my clients while working mainly from home. This has been a new adventure for me, as a Travel Counsellor; still working for myself but now with the support of a large travel agency group behind me.With Travel Counsellors I continue booking with the specialist tour operators my clients have learnt to trust over decades. I can also go on doing what I love: building holiday plans and business trips which exactly suit my clients using flights, hotels, excursions, and activities sourced, negotiated and vetted by Travel Counsellors.My experience includes arranging complex tailormade itineraries and tours to Africa, Asia, Australia and America, but also cruises and stay-still holidays to the Caribbean, Europe, and even Newquay, as well of years of arranging business travel to some fairly obscure places.I’m thorough, careful and I try to ensure my clients won’t have to worry about anything because I’ve thought about everything beforehand.I would love to send all my clients to Seychelles, the most beautiful country in the world. But the truth is, since the world’s most perfect beaches were my childhood playground, my own trips have been less relaxing. I loved the grandeur of the Canadian Rockies, the seemingly endless plains of the Serengeti, the Great Wall of China, the ridiculously ornate interior of St Petersburg’s Hermitage. And I’ve wanted, since I visited 30 years ago, to return to Samarkand, now in a country that didn’t even exist then. Strangely, since my travel agency was named Karnak Travel, I have never been to Egypt.I’m quite a fan of group tours, which make seeing a lot really easy, but since my own first exhausting tour aged 19, called “8 Countries in 10 days” I’ve known the benefits of building my own trips and I’ve enjoyed recommending, planning, and booking for other people too. I’m hoping to go on doing that for my past clients and many future ones for a long time to come. -

01932 809330Hi, thank you for taking the time to visit my web page. My name is Julie Welfare and I am your Travel Counsellor based in Walton On Thames. I have been in the travel industry for over 30 years. I began in local high street agencies and was soon putting together complex round the world itineraries for a major UK tour operator. I have had my own business with Travel Counsellors for the last 16 years. Travel is my passion; meeting new people and trying out new experiences. I have been lucky enough to visit many exciting destinations around the world; Australia, New Zealand and the South Pacific, Japan, China, South Africa, Botswana, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Hong Kong, Singapore,Thailand, Malaysia, Bali, Dubai, India, Sri Lanka, Mauritius, the Maldives, the USA, Mexico, and the Caribbean islands as well as destinations closer to home such as Iceland, the Azores and many of the popular skiing and summer sun destinations in Europe.Just a few of my treasured memories include riding camels towards a vibrant sunset at Ayers Rock, swimming in the jade-coloured ocean off Western Australia with wild dolphins swooping below us, marvelling at the view from the top of Sydney Harbour Bridge with a majestic cruise ship, blindingly white in the sunshine, gliding beneath the ironwork below, and feeling the surge of adrenalin as I launched myself off the original bungy bridge in New Zealand accompanied by the blare of rock music - the lyrics still make me smile and my heart race!One of my favourite holidays was to Africa where the highlights of my trip included a thrilling microlight flight over the magnificent Victoria Falls, almost being upturned out of a tiny boat by a hippo in the Okavango Delta and tracking a lioness on foot.I can use my expertise to add value to your dream holiday whether it is your Honeymoon, a bucket-list expedition cruise to Antarctica, South Georgia and the Falklands, or a once-in-a-lifetime round the world trip. My specialist areas are Australia, New Zealand and the South Pacific, Africa and the Indian Ocean, the Far East, and the Caribbean. I am proud to be a Aussie Specialist and have visited Australia more times than I care to recall! If you like the idea of having your own Travel Counsellor to take away the stress of booking your holiday then pick up the phone or email me now. I can offer you a first class personal service at a time convenient to you. Unlike booking through a high street travel agent or online, you will always deal with me and the service does not stop once you have made your booking.I look forward to hearing from you very soon! -

07359 740297Starting my own business and setting up with Travel Counsellors is something that feels so natural, I wonder why I didn’t do it sooner. Having spent my career to date in events and luxury hospitality, I feel so passionately about delivering a personal service to clients to make their lives easier and less stressful. I love everything about travel from a fly and flop holiday to backpacking around the lesser known parts of South East Asia, travel has always been a part of my life and a true passion of mine.To me, the idea of having a Travel Counsellor that you know and trust, is like having a personal assistant to manage any and all aspects of what travel and holidays mean to you. Getting to know clients, understanding their needs and requirements, what makes them tick and learning about what they want from a trip is what makes me love doing what I do. For me, researching a new place or putting together an itinerary for a client doesn’t really feel like work and when I say I can research, I will find out everything there is to know to ensure it really will deliver what you’re looking for. As a working mum to 2 young children, having the flexibility to work when and where I want is also a dream come true. I am available to chat (on the phone or online) whenever it suits you, and where possible, would always suggest a meeting in person so I can really get to know you. In the current day, where life sometimes seems impossibly busy, and the internet, whilst it has it’s many benefits, can also leave us feeling overwhelmed and caught in a rabbit hole, I am here to take away any stress that booking a holiday or a trip away may cause. Taking time out of our busy lives has never been more important. Booking with Travel Counsellors doesn’t just mean working with me; you also have the full support of our award winning head office team so if there’s ever a problem, we are all here to support and make sure you get sorted so you can get back to relaxing. All bookings are ATOL protected and have full financial protection.Whatever the enquiry, large or small, I would be delighted to help so I look forward to hearing from you soon. -

I have 2 children aged 9 & 7.I have worked in travel for 23 years, the majority of which I have specialised in corporate travel. I find building up relationships with clients with whom I speak on a weekly or even daily basis to be very rewarding, but that doesn’t stop me enjoying arranging leisure travel as well where possible. Whilst working for another company, I qualified several times for the annual global ball, which I’m pleased to say put me in the top 10% of the company for sales. I’m particularly proud of an individual award for Outstanding Customer Service, something I always strive to achieve.I count myself lucky to have been able to travel extensively, the highlights of which are 3 years working in Japan and a 3-month sabbatical to South America. What I love about Travel Counsellors is the opportunity to offer flexible business hours to my clients, and be on call when they need me. The extensive range of airfares and hotel contracts gives me full confidence that I can offer the client whatever they need. Listening to clients is so important, and although I may ask a lot of questions about the nature of their travel, this is only to ensure I provide options that are relevant - I’m not just a personal search engine, I will always go out of my way to be able to offer quotes on all elements of travel, whether that be private transfers, airport assistance, hotel requests or how to book a dog on board.For the last 2 years I have won the Corporate Customer Feedback award, of which I am incredibly proud.Therefore, please feel free to contact me for further details, or even better trial our services. -

01942 321111Hello, I’m Norman and I’m happily married to Janet and we have a wonderful Golden Retriever Freya.So you may ask, why choose me to arrange your travel plans?To answer that I’d first like to tell you a little bit about why I started working in the travel industry, way back in 1975.As a young boy, I dreamed of becoming an airline pilot, having been fortunate to travel extensively with my family to some of the far flung corners of the globe, well before tour operators or even travel packages were conceived. As a 12 year old I would often be found sitting in the cockpit with the pilot, asking hundreds of questions and getting my Junior Jet Club Frequent Flyer log book signed.Sadly due to colour blindness, my dream job could never be realised, but that didn’t fade my love of travel and so in my early twenties I took ownership of a local travel agency; in Wigan, learning the trade from the bottom up.Since that date in 1975 I have been responsible for arranging thousands of holidays and business trips for individuals, couples and families, major corporations, a leading TV company and broadcaster, celebrities and professional sports clubs, including their players, backroom staff and an army of devoted fans. I have been known to charter private jets, trains and dare I mention organizing the travel plans of a major political party during a general election.My clients come from all walks of life; have different expectations and budgets, which I try my utmost to fulfil. From room or seating requests, to the dietary requests of a famous TV chef, I’ve learned that nothing is impossible. Sure I still love to travel; who doesn’t?, but I get enormous satisfaction turning dreams into reality and the feedback I receive helps me keep abreast of the constantly changing world in which we live.So, whether you want a mini break or beach holiday, a river cruise, a Caribbean or round the world cruise, a trip to Antarctica, a safari, or journey on The Rocky Mountaineer or Trans Siberian Express. Do you dream of skiing or snowmobiling, or desire a bespoke multi-centre trip to Australasia or the Far East. Don’t worry, I’ve arranged them all.No trip is too big or too small, so with over 45 years in the travel business, give me a call and experience my experience.Norman -

01925 950 047Planning a holiday should be fun, right?If you’ve happened across my page, then I’ve probably come recommended to you (hi!), or you’re going round in circles looking for advice you can trust.I know there’s a million ways to book out there, but I also understand it can be totally over-whelming, time-sapping and infuriating.And whilst saving you from all those admin headaches is a part of what I do, having a Travel Counsellor is also about so much more…Back in 2018, after a decade working for various big names in the travel industry, I decided to take the plunge and put everything I’d learned into starting my own thing.From the off, my little business has been about personal, warm and truly human service. I’m not here for selling and targets, I’m not going to push a certain thing on you because it suits me. I’m small-scale, I know my clients by name, not by booking reference. I’ll find out about you: what you love, what you hate, what’ll make things extra special and then I’ll work to bring it to life, all wrapped up in a level of 24/7 care that you know you can rely on.So, what can I help you with? Well, the world’s your oyster, really. You might have an idea, or just an inkling of the kind of thing you’d like. I’ll take your lead and work in the best way to suit you.First and foremost, I’m a fully ATOL-protected tour operator, meaning I can design you anything and everything with complete financial peace of mind. Whether that’s a city or a beach break, an ocean or river cruise, or a complex multi-centre adventure, I’ll suggest locations, hand-pick hotels and tweak and tailor until it’s just right for you.I’m also an independent travel agent, so, depending on what you fancy, I can help you choose from a wide choice of tried and trusted third party suppliers too. That means I’ll do all the legwork to compare the options, and present you with a whittled down list of what works and why.I’ve found that you can’t have this conversation without talking about price. I’m always completely transparent that while my prices are fair, I’m not here to try and beat online or DIY arrangements where there’s little to no care, service or protection involved. However, with direct relationships with a whole world of hotels, airlines, cruise companies, adventure specialists, experience providers and much more, I’ll work my socks off to get the right thing, at the right budget. If you’re not sure if I can help, please just ask. I’ll always give you an honest answer.Ready to stop reading, and start planning? I’d love to help. I’ll work flexibly around you, so get in touch and we can arrange a time to chat. -

07871 787 484With 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. -

0203 582 7870Welcome and thank you for visiting my webpage.I became a Travel Counsellor after a long and distinguished career at two of the UK's leading tour operators and wanting to re-introduce the values of what a tour operator/travel agent should be offering you. Booking a holiday or a business trip is more than a simple retail transaction. It is more important than that to you and it is more important than that to me. It is something that is personal and should be handled with the care and attention it deserves.Being a Travel Counsellor means that we can offer you what you require – it isn’t limited to one supplier or one product, it is a means to be independent and offer you what you want, be that a speedy process, an in-depth discussion about a destination, a hotel or a mode of transport, the most luxury or the best value. Each requirement is different but we are experienced in understanding travel. More often than not you will want to discuss and plan your holidays and business trips over the phone/videocall although I am happy to meet in person too.My own personal travel experience spans approximately ninety countries from the incredibly exotic Maldives and Mauritius (including my own wedding) to the more adventurous India, Sri Lanka, Vietnam, Guatemala and Japan, to the business hubs of New York, Hong Kong and Singapore. So, whether you are looking for a once-in-a-lifetime trip to Australia and New Zealand, your annual winter holiday to the Caribbean, a family holiday to USA or a romantic weekend in Paris there are a multitude of holidays that can be arranged to suit you for your next adventure. As you can probably tell I am passionate about most places I have travelled to (and places still on the to do travel list) but do give me a call and we can even discuss my other favourites that I haven't even mentioned here. I also enjoy documenting my travels in the journals that you can read below along with trying to improve my photography which you can see within them.With all Travel Counsellors, we pride ourselves on the service we provide and the value this brings to our customers. We are all independent, meaning we can provide you with the holiday you require and we can design it to suit your needs and desires. All types of holidays can be catered for from cruises to adventure tours to tailormade holidays to business trips and private tours.It may be an itinerary that you find daunting to put together yourself, or you just want the reassurance of being able to contact someone at any time either before you go or while you are away or it may be that you like to have that feeling of being financially protected or someone to help with giving you good value and inspiration and ideas, we can do all this and more.I very much look forward to hearing from you and discussing your travel plans. -

Having worked in F1 attention to detail and 24/7 accessibility is my bread & butter, so being able to offer this on a personal level for you will be my pleasure as well as my job. I believe that “Life should not be measured by just the number of breaths we take, but the number of breaths taken away” So, I look forward to hearing from you soon, for all, and every aspect of your Corporate & Leisure travel. -

07714 850301It'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. -

Waking each morning with a loose plan of where I was heading, finding amazing eateries on side streets all whilst taking recommendations from people I meet along the way. I’m still mesmerised by the people, the history and culture of India. My first experience of South America was venturing from Buenos Aires to Rio De Janeiro via Iguazu Falls. One word sums up my experience, WOW! From the outstanding natural beauty of Argentina to the colourful festivities of Carnival in Rio, this is a trip I’ll never forget.I know just how important seamless planning, booking and travelling abroad is.

Chalfont St Giles is a great place to live; a great community, in a lovely area including fantastic Bluebell woods, and great schools. My husband and I have lived in the area for over 20 years and our sons grew up and went to school locally, even though they are grown up one or other or both of them periodically live with us. As someone who loves travel, being close but not too close to all forms of transport, airports, ports, channel tunnel and Central London for the Eurostar and evenings out is an added benefit. I love organising travel and holidays for others. Whether it is a once in a lifetime holiday to New Zealand, a luxury cultural city break for two in Nice, or a big family ski trip (dog and grandparents included) I can organize it, leaving you free to look forward and enjoy your trip. Cruising is one of my specialities and with the number of different cruise lines, destinations and inclusive options available I will be happy to discuss which would be most suitable for your needs. Due to my husband being a very keen sailor, I have organised sailing trips for us to Greece, Turkey, The British Virgin Islands and my favourite, Tobago Cays in St Vincent and the Grenadines in the Caribbean, ( where swimming with turtles and rays was magical). This has given me first hand experience with the logistics of wind powered travel as well as an intimate knowledge of the aforementioned areas.For me being a Travel Counsellor means that I am there for you, and not just during office hours. I will be able to offer you impartial advice and help you find the best travel option to suit your needs as well as exceptional customer service tailored to your requirements. Whether it is a last minute quick getaway somewhere sunny, or a precisely planned trip to Antarctica I will be delighted to find the travel solution to meet your needs.

My name is Clare and I live in Cheadle Hulme, a small village in South Manchester with my husband, daughter and new addition a lively Springer Spaniel.I have worked in the Travel Industry for almost 20 years in both Leisure and Corporate and honestly cannot imagine working in another industry. I started as a Leisure Travel Consultant for a large high street chain which specialised in Tailor-Made itineraries but I soon realised that no matter where the dream I wanted to be the one to make it come true. This could be a UK Staycation, a weekend city break, annual week or two in the sun or a bucket list dream trip. I excelled in building long trusting relationships with my clients that saw them return again and again.I moved over to Corporate Travel following the birth of my daughter and used those tools of building relationships with my clients to ensure long lasting partnerships. There is no trip small or large or component of the trip that I cannot organise for your business.I am excited to be part of the Travel Counsellors family as this will enable me to offer a truly flexible and independent service. I understand that not all travel can be organised during the typical 9-5 so I am her 24/7 365 days a year. Travel is still my addiction and I feel blessed to have visited so many wonderful countries across the globe. I am currently at 42 countries and try to add a new one each year. I often get asked where is my favourite place and whilst it is difficult New Zealand certainly is a stand out country and it is my aim to get back there with my family one day.With my extensive experience and destination knowledge I look forward to working with you to give you the best Travel Experience. -

01502 770 003Welcome, I am Tracy, your personal Travel Counsellor on the sunny Suffolk coast. A childhood spent living in Germany meant that hopping across borders into neighbouring countries quickly became a way of life, and those early journeys across Europe and into Asia are where my love of travel and different cultures truly began. From backpacking through Australia and exploring the Far East, to discovering the Caribbean, Canada and the Middle East, travel has always been at the heart of my story and continues to inspire everything I do for my clients today.I spent more than 30 years working as a Finance Manager in the private sector, including over 25 years in the travel and tourism industry, so I bring a unique blend of insider knowledge, commercial understanding and meticulous organisation to every trip I design. In 2020 I decided to turn my lifelong passion into my full‑time profession and, for the past five years, I have been creating carefully tailored holidays as a Travel Counsellor. I combine a genuine love of discovering new places, people and flavours with a detail‑driven, numbers‑savvy approach that keeps your plans running smoothly from the first idea to your return home. I understand both the joy and the juggle of travelling with children from my own family adventures with my son Tommy, and I also share my husband’s enthusiasm for long‑haul escapes, culture‑rich city breaks and a growing love of F1 and walking holidays (honestly that's something I thought I would never say).When you plan your holiday with me, it is all about you. I take the time to listen to what you truly want from your time away, whether that is relaxation, adventure, culture, family connection or a little of everything. I will get to know how you like to travel, what matters most to you and what will transform a good holiday into a trip you will talk about for years. Every itinerary is designed around your needs, with thoughtful touches and professional guidance at every step, and I will be here to support you before you go, while you are away and once you are home again. My aim is simple: to take the stress out of planning so that all you feel is the excitement of your next journey and the pleasure of making unforgettable memories.If you are ready to start imagining your next escape, I would be delighted to help bring your travel dreams to life. -

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.

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!

01625 423 856Hello and a big thank you for taking the time to visit my webpage, I love to travel and by visiting this webpage hopefully you do too! I am a highly experienced travel agent based in Macclesfield, Cheshire, with global destinations at my fingertips.I trust you will find the below introduction helpful and that I can inspire you to pick up the phone or drop me a line for a chat about where in the world next awaits you.My passion for travel really took off when I booked a round the world flight ticket in 1997. I largely lived, worked and travelled in Australia, also taking in Fiji and Hawaii on the way home. I have always loved adventure and this opened a whole new world of excitement, experiences and many life-long friends.Ever since, I have been fortunate to travel to many worldwide destinations and experience some magical places. From mountaineering and jungle trekking in Borneo, cruising the Egyptian Nile and riding donkeys to the Valley of the Kings, snowboarding and husky sledding in Canada, scuba diving with sharks in Fiji, hang gliding in Brazil, safaris in Kenya, honeymooning in Zanzibar, crayfish parties in Sweden, to road trips across the USA taking in some of the most breath-taking scenery imaginable.One of my favourite memories is proposing to my wife whilst scuba diving in Tobago, using an underwater slate and a makeshift ring. Thankfully she ticked the ‘Yes’ box and we returned to the surface to cheers from our fellow dive buddies. As of 2018 there are 195 countries in the world and I find it amazing that whilst I feel well travelled, I know I have only really scratched the surface (and occasionally gone underneath when diving!) To fuel my passion for travel, I worked for seven years for two bespoke travel companies, immersing myself further into new destinations, sharing my knowledge and experience and what it can do for the human spirit. I am highly experienced helping business and leisure travellers, designing bespoke trips whilst offering an exceptional level of care and service, whatever your travel requirements and aspirations, big or small. I am available 24/7, before, during and after your trip, to help and assist with recommendations and solving those unforeseen hiccups.In a world of computers, robots and technology, there is still nothing like a personal touch. Let me help take you on your next journey and make it an even more memorable experience. -

But all too often, the reality shows clear signs of missing that all-important human touch.I invite you to think of me as your Travel Tailor. While online booking platforms offer the "off-the-rack" holidays that often don't quite fit around the shoulders, I’m here to provide the Savile Row experience. I’ve spent a fair chunk of my life behind the heavy velvet curtains of luxury hotels like The Ritz-Carlton and Sani/Ikos, so I can ensure my clients avoid the shiny polyesters, instead receiving vicuñas with hand-stitched details.So, what do you really get?The Human Filter: You gain an actual person who eliminates the digital fog. I’ll leverage my experience and trade tools to find the needle in the haystack, ensuring you don’t have to spend your Sunday getting internet-induced vertigo.The Insider’s Directory: Thanks to the Travel Counsellors community, I’ve got more boots on the ground than a hiking shop. If I don't know the best table in a Roman trattoria, I know the person who does.A Financial Safety Net: Life can occasionally throw a spanner in the works, as recent events have made us all too familiar with. With ATOL protection and the TC Trust serving as financial safeguards, your money is safer than a biscuit in a tin.From Lapland expeditions to tropical escapes, I stand by the "Goldilocks" principle when planning every one of my clients' trips: it's only right when it's perfect.If perfect holidays sound like your cup of tea, let's get chatting! -

01780 490 020Thank you for visiting my webpage. My name is Sandra and I live in Stamford, a stunningly beautiful and vibrant market town in south Lincolnshire.As a Travel Counsellor I’m here to take away the stress of organising your holiday. I’ve never been a 9 to 5 person so feel free to contact me when it suits you - I’ll work with you to fully understand what you want from your trip and take care of every detail from start to finish, so that you can focus on the other important things in your life and start your holiday relaxed.Travel has been my life, from my early days working on a campsite in France, through living and working in Spain, Greece, Malta, India and Cuba to finally being UK based with Thomas Cook in a role that entailed travelling frequently and focusing on giving customers the best holiday ever in places as diverse as Las Vegas, Bali and Kenya, as well as the more familiar European holiday resorts. For as long as I can remember I’ve enjoyed organising fantastic bespoke getaways for myself and others including celebratory weekends in the English countryside for 20+ people, exploring the whole length of Vietnam and a once in a lifetime private tour around Namibia. It was therefore a logical step, following the collapse of Thomas Cook, to become a Travel Counsellor and to use my knowledge and experience to help others have holidays that are just as amazing.The hardest question for me is ‘what’s your favourite destination?’ as I’ve visited 75 countries and each has its own special charms. You can read more in my blogs but some of the most memorable moments of my travels have been micro lighting over the Victoria Falls, swimming with whale sharks in Mexico, seeing the stars in the vastness of the Kalahari and more recently going to the ends of the earth on truly incredible and life affirming expedition cruises to the Arctic and Antarctica.You can trust me to find the trip that’s right for you, whether that’s a multi generational family holiday, a luxury cruise, a romantic city break to pop the question, the ultimate honeymoon or a ‘blow the budget’ round the world trip. Let me know your bucket list destinations and I’ll find the best way to realise those dreams. And if all you want is to chill on the beach, then I can arrange that too.In the words of St Augustine, ‘the world is a book and those who do not travel read only a page’. Get in touch and let me plan your next travel chapter!
