Welcome 🤗 I’m Sam, your local Personal Travel Counsellor, specialising in luxury, tailor-made travel experiences. Based in Potters Bar, Hertfordshire, I live with my fiancé Adam, our three children, and our Cavapoochon, Honey — a busy family life that perfectly complements my passion for creating exceptional escapes for others.My career in travel began straight from school, where I studied Travel and Tourism at college before starting my professional journey with Going Places. There, I achieved my NVQ Levels 2 and 3 in Travel and Tourism and built a strong foundation within the industry. I went on to work for an independent travel agency specialising in Greece and Cyprus, before joining a well-established tour operator where I spent many years expertly tailor-making complex, around-the-world itineraries for discerning clients.After taking a career break to raise my three children, I returned to the travel industry once they were in full-time education. Following several successful years back in the role, the pandemic brought unexpected change. It was during this time that I discovered Travel Counsellors — and instantly knew it was the perfect fit. Joining allowed me to fulfil a long-held ambition of running my own business while continuing to deliver the exceptional service and bespoke travel planning I’m known for.With over 25 years of experience in the travel industry, I pride myself on offering a truly personal, concierge-style VIP service. Every holiday I design is carefully handcrafted, using my expertise and access to thousands of trusted global suppliers. If you can dream it, I can make it happen — and I’ll ensure every detail is thoughtfully considered.Travel is not just my career; it’s my passion. I’ve been fortunate to explore an array of extraordinary destinations including Barbados, Dubai, Mexico, the Maldives, Iceland, Lapland, Mauritius, and many parts of the USA — from the Golden Triangle of Las Vegas, San Francisco and Los Angeles, to New York and Florida — as well as Canada’s Toronto and Niagara Falls. I’ve also travelled extensively throughout Europe’s most loved family destinations, such as Greece, Turkey and Cyprus. And, of course, the bucket list is ever-growing, with The Bahamas, Turks & Caicos and Thailand firmly in my sights next.I am driven, detail-focused and committed to going above and beyond for every client. I thrive on setting goals, exceeding expectations and continually raising the bar — all with one clear aim: to create unforgettable, bespoke holidays that are as unique as you are.All that’s left for you to do is sit back, relax, and let me take care of the rest.

I would love to hear from you about your travel plans and help to build you a fabulous tailor-made trip that matches your requirements and your budget. Travel has been a passion of mine since my first package holiday abroad to Mallorca at 17. From then I knew I’d caught the bug! I was lucky enough to spend over 10 years living and working overseas for tour operators in The Balearics, Mainland Spain, Canaries, Portugal, Cyprus and Mexico. On returning to the UK I continued contracting hotels throughout mainland Europe and Scandinavia and then spent many years with travel suppliers working alongside tour operators and travel agents.I have been fortunate to have visited over 30 countries including Brazil, Mexico, Thailand, Sri Lanka, Botswana & Zimbabwe, Kenya, all the Spanish islands, several islands of the Caribbean and nearly all of the Greek islands! I’ve experienced many types of travel aside from beach holidays including ski, cruises, city breaks and safaris travelling as a couple, then as a family, on business and also with groups of friends so understand the needs of all types of travellers. My personal favourites have to be Santorini for the dramatic scenery and stunning blue domes, Mykonos with its windmills and sugar cube houses (plus Shirley Valentine moments!), Mexico for its excitement, culture and beaches, Africa for its amazing wildlife and friendly people and Gran Canaria for its year-round sunshine. However you can’t beat a cruise to experience a variety of exciting destinations all in one trip!As your Travel Counsellor I have access not only to brochured holidays but a huge range of additional specialist suppliers, far greater than can be found on the High St, that will help to build your perfect experience.

You can also rest assured that every penny of your spend is protected by Travel Counsellors’ unique financial protection trust.So whether you’re looking for a beach break, a cruise, special celebration, a global adventure or a business trip, I look forward to hearing from you and talking through your requirements.

Hello and thank you for visiting my web page. Originally from London, I now live in Hertfordshire with my husband, teenage son, and energetic Labrador, Basil!I have been fortunate to have visited many amazing and varied destinations so I like to use my experience and contacts to help guide my clients. Whether you are seeking adventure, discovery, rejuvenation or simply somewhere special to relax with your family, I would love to help you create your own wonderful memories.Over my long and varied travel career I have seen many changes in the way that holidays are presented and bought. The internet may have enabled people to create their own trips, but the process is fraught at the best of times, and ultimately you travel without support. We have all had the irritation of unmanned email addresses and no contact numbers when seeking assistance from a human being. What might appear a modern convenience can all too easily become a frustrating experience and a false economy.We offer a personal service and take the time to find out what makes the perfect holiday for you and your family. I appreciate that all stages of the booking cycles are equally important, this means I’ll be with you every step of the way to ensure everything runs smoothly. Our 100% financial cover will give you complete peace of mind together with our round the clock 24/7 support team. Our incredible travel app will also keep you fully updated at all times both before and during your trip and together with my own support ensures you have a true travel concierge service from start to finish leaving you free to enjoy your holiday.I have access to an incredible range of quality suppliers worldwide, covering holidays as varied as safaris to ocean cruises, yoga retreats to adventurous hikes in the Himalayas, to say nothing of exclusive beach locations, our preferential rates allow me to tailor-make your perfect holiday providing superb value for money.It is clear that our planet is changing so now might be the time to make that bucket list trip happen. Each opportunity to travel is precious and I want to ensure you get the most out of every holiday.You will find me informed but informal and available at the times that suit you. Don’t forget: 'Travel is the only thing you can buy that makes you richer'

Hi, I’m Martin. I live in Hove on the south coast with my young family.My passion for travel began in the mid ‘90s with a round-the-world trip and working holiday in Australia. Since then, I’ve been fortunate enough to have travelled extensively worldwide, visiting over 50 countries along the way. My travels have taken me to places such as Thailand, Sri Lanka, Borneo, Cambodia, Vietnam, Myanmar, Japan, Hong Kong, Singapore, Brazil, the USA, New Zealand, Fiji, Kenya and a number of European countries too. More recently, I’ve been discovering destinations a little closer to home, such as the Canary Islands, that work very well for family holidays.Over the years, I’ve had some wonderful experiences that include watching cheetahs as the sun sets over the Masai Mara, sky-diving at the Whitsundays in Australia, taking a helicopter ride into the Grand Canyon and travelling on the tea country train through the tea plantations in Sri Lanka.Through work trips, I have first-hand experience of staying in some of the world’s finest hotels (and some more run-of-the-mill ones too!) and can pass on some great tips to ensure you get the most from your hotel choices. I have extensive flight cabin knowledge. Business or Premium Economy Class isn’t always as expensive as you may think and makes long haul travel far more enjoyable.Before becoming a Travel Counsellor, my career evolved from working in London for a ‘flights specialist’ and managing a team of 20+, to helping build a small travel ‘start-up’ into a successful travel business and more recently working for an award-winning luxury tailor-made tour operator creating privately guided tours throughout Asia. All these roles have required exceptional service levels and a very keen eye for detail. With over 25 years’ experience as a dedicated travel professional, I can offer impartial, tailored advice for your trip and great prices too! Your leisure time is very precious and I realise just how important holidays are. I take pride in providing inspirational ideas for your trip, something which will save you hours of online research. Planning a bespoke holiday itinerary can be a daunting and sometimes time-consuming experience. Leave the detail to me and I’ll ensure a stress-free, smooth running trip, and you’ll return home with amazing memories that will last a lifetime.For a no obligation quote (or just an initial chat about your holiday plans), please feel free to give me a call or send me an email. I’ll be very happy to help…

Hi I’m Jon! I live in Berkshire with my partner Maria and 2 house rabbits! When we’re not all hopping around the house, we’re either out walking, eating or listening to live music.I’ve personally visited Australia, Canada, China, Caribbean, Egypt, Europe, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Maldives, Morocco, Seychelles, Singapore, South Africa, Sri Lanka, Thailand, UAE, USA (California, Florida, Louisiana, Nevada, Texas). I’ve enjoyed enduring overnight sleeper trains, tents and hostels, and relished relaxing in lavish hotels, 5-star dining and business class flights. Memorable Travel Experience: Whilst travelling alone in Hong Kong, I took a glass bottom cabin on the sky-rail from Tung Chung to the Tian Tan Buddha and Po Lin Monastery. The sun was beginning to set, and the last cabin was due to depart… but I wasn’t having that! I decided to hike to the bottom along the Wisdom Path, it’s surrounded by forest, overlooks the Tung Chung Bay and I didn’t see another person for 2 hours. As I reached the bottom I jumped on a random bus, that took me to a fishing village, Mui Who, where I had dinner with the locals. Luckily, there was a ferry terminal there that took me from the serene Lantau Island back to bustling Hong Kong. The darkness of the evening was obliterated by the Symphony of Lights display that greeted me as I arrived back at the bay. It was an accidental, day of exploration where everything just clicked into place without even trying, sometimes the best experiences are the ones that aren’t planned. As the world becomes more accessible, our horizons may be expanded. Whether you venture adventure, dream of sleeping on the beach, or you’re dashing for discovery, I have over 20,000 hours of travel industry experience with a breadth of knowledge in a multitude of worldwide destinations. I spend time envisioning the tangible experience before I even go near the physical planning of a holiday, then I make the magic happen. I’ve a background with a popular travel company in which I offered bespoke itineraries, with additional specialisms in business class travel and cruise. More recently as a corporate travel consultant in the banking industry, I know where to draw the line between fluffy and practical. Favourite sayings: ‘We don’t have problems, just solutions.’ & ‘Don’t let fear stand in the way of your dreams.’

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!

By booking with me and Travel Counsellors you will have the best financial protection for your trip that is available in the travel industry, everything you book with me is 100% financially protected against supplier failure either by ATOL or the Travel Counsellors Trust. With travel being so important to me understandably I want to see the world and have already managed to travel to many of the States of America, numerous Caribbean islands, Greek islands and cities across Europe, the Far East including Thailand, the Middle East, Oman and Egypt, India, the Indian Ocean and Namibia in Africa. This has given me a wealth of knowledge and first-hand experience of numerous destinations which only aids me in planning your adventures, I can tailor-make exactly the right holiday to suit both your desires and needs. I specialise in worldwide long haul destinations, cruises, family holidays, touring holidays, weddings, honeymoons, ski breaks, city and country weekend breaks, worldwide ski, rail holidays and in business travel. No itinerary is too big or too small nor are there such thing as silly questions, please don’t ever hesitate to ask. I often get asked where my favourite destinations are and for me a holiday must have some aspects of relaxation mixed with plenty to do, lots to see and new experiences to undertake. In Europe the destination for this would be, the Greek islands and Italy. In the USA, my number one state would be California. The Middle East, Oman, although if you are into history like me, Egypt is a must. In the Indian Ocean, by far the best is Mauritius. In the Far East I’d always pick Thailand, it’s so diverse. I also am a lover of cruises and have been fortunate to have been on quite a few. My best trip ever has to be Namibia. In 2005 I was fortunate to fly to Windhoek, Namibia when we then drove to Ongava on the edge of the Etosha National Park. This is one of the best places to see the ‘big five’ and it lived up to all expectations. We then travelled to Sossusvlei to see the sand dunes, another must see. Followed by, Swakopmund to see dolphins and the Skeleton Coast which is home to millions of seals. Adding in some history we visited Twyfelfontein to see the ancient rock engravings and drove through Damaraland to see the desert elephants. We stayed in the most beautiful individual luxury lodges for 3 nights, making the most of the early morning and evening game drives. We ended the trip with a visit to the world famous Africat Foundation in Okinjima to see the cheetahs which truly was the cherry on top of a fantastic trip.I regularly post offers and deals on my social media, so make sure you check out my page and give me a follow to make sure you don’t miss out. I look forward to discussing your travel plans with you.

Planning 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.

I am based in Crawley, near Gatwick airport. It is a fantastic location for me, being able to travel into London City, to Brighton for a day by the sea or even hop on a plane to check out a new destination. I live with my partner who works in the hospitality trade and our three young children, twin boys and a girl, who all keep me on my toes.My background started in the hotel sector before getting the travel bug. It all began when working as an international conference and incentive organiser. Arranging large groups of key workers for a trip of a lifetime. It was here I was able to experience cities and various destinations to their full potential.On to the next great adventure - flying, I decided to travel in a different way, as cabin crew. Time to see destinations I would not think to see and expand my knowledge in the aviation world. Whilst I loved this fast-paced lifestyle, I missed the structure and the chance to organise the trips of a lifetime for top achievers. I returned to event management here I was fortunate to travel to Asia and also experience the humongous A380 aircraft when it was first launched.After starting a family and not being able to travel with work as much I changed my job to become a travel expert for a luxury travel company where I was able to experience more European destinations and get a greater understanding of the leisure market.I have so many favourite destinations and all for different reasons but if I had to pick, it would be Singapore for its diverse culture and variety of activities there are two sides to this city and that is something you will have to experience by booking with me!Becoming a Travel counsellor enables me to be accessible to customers on a 24/7 basis, I can discuss your requirements at a time that is convenient for you.

Hi, I’m Rich, Being a Travel Counsellor is my dream job. After many years travelling and living abroad, I’m now making a career out of what I love most.My passion for travel was sparked aged 8, on a family trip to Corfu. Since then I’ve been lucky enough to travel the world and have lived in both Italy and the US where I stayed for 15 years, working as a real tennis professional, a career which also saw me travel extensively on the competition circuit.Travelling has shaped who I am, it’s influenced my outlook and informed my opinions. Because of that, it’s something I love sharing with other people. But, there’s a big difference between those who love to travel, and those who love to plan travel. Luckily, I love both.I partnered with Travel Counsellors because they understand that it’s the personal details that make all the difference. This global, multi-award winning company gives me the platform to do what I do best, all backed up with the security of 100% financial protection and 24/7 support. This allows me use my expertise, knowledge, and connections to deliver unforgettable holidays and build incredible bespoke itineraries for people who share my love for elevated experiences. Ultimately, I save you hours of time, so you can focus on the things that matter most to you. And, with me as your single point of contact, you’ll never have to talk to a call centre, either before your trip, or while you're away. So, if you’re ready to embark on the trip of a lifetime, then I can’t wait to hear from you. Your first step is to give me a call or send me an email and I promise to make the process fun and easy. My goal is to make sure I understand who you are and what you’re looking for, and I’ll curate a holiday especially for you. All you’ll need to do is show up at the airport with your bags packed, while I take care of the rest.

Look at the web page of any Travel Counsellor and you will see we all sing the same song, we are all passionate about travel.The passion comes from discovery of a new exciting destination or the revisiting of places familiar.The fun begins when the decision is made about the latest holiday choice for yourself or a joint adventure to look forward to with friends or loved ones. I just love helping people towards that moment when the deposit is paid and the ticking off of the calendar can begin.My fascination with travel began when I was very young as my father worked abroad for long periods in the late 50s and 60s when it took a week to get to South America! Where most people see hustle and bustle at an airport, I see everyone either at the start or the end of an adventure.For me, guest experience is paramount. The nicest part is getting to know my clients so I can help them find the perfect bespoke holiday experience. I have travelled and lived for five years in Australia, travelled and lived for 16 years in Spain, visited USA, Indonesia, Greece and the Islands, Italy, France and the Baltics.

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

Hi I'm Tracey, thank you for visiting my personal web page.Originally from Cumbria, the home of the beautiful Lake District, I now live in the most easterly point of the UK in Lowestoft, Suffolk on the edge of the stunning Norfolk Broads.I have been working in the wonderful world of travel for over 30 years, starting my career as an overseas holiday rep living in the Canary Islands for 3 years and then working for high street agencies as a travel advisor building up a wealth of knowledge and personal travel experiences.My passion for travel has taken me to some fantastic places around the world - to name a few I've chartered a speedboat and sailed around the coast of Malta, had a couples massage on a private island in the Bahamas with the sound of the sea lapping at the shore, been 'family of the day' in the Walt Disney World parade in Orlando, flew into Monte Carlo by helicopter and won at the Monte Carlo casino, caught my own fish and collected coconuts on a deserted island in Mauritius, bartered in bazaars in Turkey and shopped until I dropped in Dubai.

Hello I’m Rebecca, Thank you for visiting my website. I was born and raised in Oxfordshire and live with my husband and two children in Didcot. Having worked in Travel for over twenty years I have gained great experience and knowledge from the industry. I started my career as a modern apprentice, learning all about retail travel, from there I moved on to work in business travel and now I am a Travel Counsellor. I personally feel that holidays should be wonderful experiences, whether a City Break or a World Cruise, alone, or spent with loved ones, meeting new friends, exploring, relaxing and storing treasured memories of happy times. I have personally travelled from Barbados to the Balearics, initially child free, but now with my husband and two children on many family trips to the Mediterranean. Because of this personal experience and with my knowledge of the Travel industry I know what I want from my holiday and plan it accordingly. If you are anything like me you spend the time between holidays planning your next adventure whilst revelling in the memories of your previous trip. I would therefore invite you to let me create your perfect memories..... Working for Travel Counsellors gives me the flexibility to research, plan and book your holiday. I believe holidays should be tailored to the needs of the individual and whatever your requirements I will do everything to accommodate your wishes. I am always available to offer the best practical advice and service and will do my utmost to ensure your travel arrangements are perfect for you.

Hi, I'm Dawn and I live in a small town called Prudhoe in the beautiful county Northumberland in North East England. I've been a successful business owner for the past twenty years prior to which I had a fourteen year career working in travel as an overseas representative and manager. This career gave me the fortune to work alongside some of the biggest brands in the industry allowing me to follow my life long dream of visiting fantastic destinations such as The Caribbean Islands (in particular Antigua & Barbados), Kenya, Tunisia, Greece, Spain & the Canaries, North America and many more destinations. Just lately myself and my husband have built a campervan (called Vera) and have recently completed a fantastic tour of Northern Scotland called the North Coast 500, which I have to say was another amazing adventure to add to my collection (and hopefully we have many more to come). That was a little about my past, so let me tell you about my next exciting adventure as a Travel Counsellor. "What are Travel Counsellors" I hear you say, well let me explain.

Thank you for visiting my page. Let me introduce myself. I have worked in travel for over 36 years. I used to manage a local high street agency and I have also taught travel part-time at the Isle of Wight College.I have been fortunate to visit many countries including New Zealand, Australia, Peru, South Africa, Sri Lanka, the Maldives, Argentina, Brazil, Thailand, North America and Canada plus a host of destinations closer to home.It is hard to pick my favourite destination because there are so many. All countries offer their own history, diversity and culture which is what makes travel so enriching. Each trip becomes a personal discovery. Some of my most memorable experiences include visiting Machu Picchu in Peru where I climbed Huayna Picchu (Young Mountain); another includes taking a jet-boat ride on the Shotover River and a balloon flight over the Canterbury Plains during a visit to South Island in New Zealand. Similarly, witnessing the dramatic Iguazu Falls on the Brazilian/Argentine border by helicopter rates equally as memorable.During my career, I have seen many changes within the travel industry and as an agent, it is important to adapt to these changes. In 2015 I joined Travel Counsellors to offer a more bespoke, flexible service and to be part of a network of travel professionals, where customer service is a core value.Not only am I passionate about my job I am dedicated to it. I enjoy doing the research to give my clients competitive options with reliable suppliers coupled with a more personal service. A holiday, after all, is often a considered purchase and it is important to know it is in safe hands.So whether you are planning a long-haul itinerary or a short UK break or considering an ocean cruise or a boating holiday or taking to the slopes for a winter ski trip or a relaxing get-away-from-it-all beach holiday, I am on hand to help find that holiday that best suits your needs. I have experience in arranging anything from school groups, family holidays or an emergency last-minute flight. At Travel Counsellors I have access to award-winning technology and resources and moreover, I am on hand at hours to suit you. Even if you just need impartial, unbiased advice, please contact me. I look forward to hearing from you.

Hello, my name is Laura and I am based in West Byfleet, Surrey.My passion for travel started back on 9th May 1995 (that’s right – I remember the exact date!) I was 11 years old and I went on my first long haul flight to Florida. I loved the whole experience. The bustle of the airport, the flight, arriving somewhere I’d never been before, the food and then of course, Disney – I loved it all. I’ll never forget that trip – and come the 9th May each year, I remember “what a holiday!” that was. Money well spent, hey!Fast forward (almost!!) 30 years! I now have 2 children of my own and there is nothing we enjoy more as a family than exploring our wonderful world together. My passion for both travel and customer service is second to none, and having been disappointed on occasions with the service I have received, I’ve thought “I can do this so much better”. So here I am, opening myself up to you as your own personal Travel Counsellor. With the support of the award winning Travel Counsellors brand behind me, I’ll take care of all the details, and you take care of the memories. All safe in the knowledge that everything you book with me is 100% financially protected against supplier failure by either ATOL or the Travel Counsellors Trust, giving you absolute peace of mind. I pride myself on offering a full and comprehensive service. From short to long haul; luxury to low cost; multi destinations to all-inclusive resorts; from sun to ski… and sea to sand! Drawing on my own experiences having travelled extensively around the USA, Europe, the Middle East, Asia, Australia and South Africa, I truly believe I can create the holiday of your dreams, whatever that might be.I like to think I have a ‘few’ specialist areas: • Japan. We lived in the heart of Tokyo with 2 small children who both attended the British School in Shibuya. This was a unique and incredible experience giving us the platform to explore this fascinating part of the world. • USA. From East to West coast; the Sunshine State of Florida to Music City in Nashville; to the lights and sounds of New York to Las Vegas; from Route 66 to Pacific Highway 1! • Disney. Having visited parks in Florida, Paris, and Tokyo, I know a ‘few’ things Disney! • Italy – extensively travelled from North to South. Skiing in the Alps, city breaks in Rome, Venice, Milan and Florence, to private villas in rural towns. • Australia – Perth and the wine region of Margaret River on the West coast… to travelling the East coast from Carins to The Great Barrier Reef; Byron Bay to Sydney. • South Africa - I’ve explored the Garden Route, from Table Mountain in Cape Town, the wine tours of Franschhoek and seeing the Big Five on safari. I truly love all things travel, and with me it really is personal. It's time to make your memories, so give me a call and let's get planning.

Hi, my name is Julie. I am based in Bingley, West Yorkshire. With over 40 years experience in the travel industry, I am part of a network of over 1800 travel consultants. I joined Travel Counsellors as I wanted to concentrate on giving my customers the highest possible levels of personal service and independent travel advice. We give you the opportunity of selecting your holiday from the comfort of your own home, coupled with a degree of expertise you will not find elsewhere. Travel Counsellors is one of the largest independent travel agencies in the UK. As your own professional Travel Counsellor I can use our award winning technology and my personal expertise to tailor make exactly the right holiday to suit your needs. Rather than selling you a standard tour operator package, I can quickly search through hundreds of different flight, accommodation and transfer alternatives to find something that suits your needs exactly. Quite often this means I can build you a bespoke holiday at a cheaper price than the standard holiday package you might get elsewhere. So whether you just need a flight to Barcelona or a last minute holiday to Florida I can help and of course I can help with any other travel arrangements you may have, including holiday car hire and holiday insurance.

Hello and thanks for taking the time to look me up. I've been with Travel Counsellors since 2004 and every day is a fantastic challenge which makes me enjoy my work more and more. It's such an honour to be part of such an exciting and innovative company where our ethos is firmly rooted in excellent customer service.For 18 years I specialised in Business Travel and enjoyed creating itineraries which include flights, hotels, cars, ferries and rail reservations but since joining Travel Counsellors, I now have the opportunity to put together some really exciting itineraries for leisure customers as well and my knowledge of the leisure sector is growing by the day.Of course I have done some travelling myself and have been many times to Europe. I loved the buzz of New York, the 'Summertime' feeling you get in Miami and the clean air of San Francisco. Dubai is fabulous for shopping and sizzling on the beach or relaxing in the desert. I've also been to Hong Kong where the pace never eases up and in contrast, to the Caribbean where nothing is rushed and you'd fare better if you just relaxed! I'm also an avid cruiser and have cruised with P&O, Princess, Royal Caribbean and Holland America cruise lines and this year I was on board for P&O's Azura and NCL's EPIC inaugural events. Cruising is fantastic these days and really has something for everyone. So you see, I love travelling and when I'm not, I take pleasure in arranging travel for my friends, and my clients become my friends, and I always arrange a holiday on the basis of ' would I go there'. Thanks for taking the time to read my page and get in touch when you next want your dream holiday arranged. Please feel free to contact me by phone or email.Kind regardsGill

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

Your holidays should always be amazing, not average or ok. I appreciate that most people just don’t have enough time spare in order to guarantee this by putting the work in themselves. As holidays are so precious they should always be perfect. I’m here to help ensure that this is a reality for you. My goal is to provide you the best customer service in delivering your perfect travel experience, whether that be a bespoke tailor-made escape or a package holiday in Europe: boutique hotels, Amazon adventures, 6* cruises, exclusive offers, close up wildlife encounters, or everything rolled into one! Travelling is a wonderful experience; I have toured cities, mountains and beaches across France, Spain and Italy, sampling food and wine along the way. We’ve been lucky enough to see elephants in South Africa, turtles in Tobago and Lightening McQueen at Euro Disney! Currently on my bucket list are visiting Polar bears in Canada, a summer family cruise, a snowy break in a castle in Scotland and a city break in Dubai. If you’ve got any ideas to share with me, I’d love to chat! I have long been obsessed with discovering foodie finds, so I can usually recommend a restaurant to anyone who is planning a trip, wherever you may be going. I’ve got a great recommendation for a fantastic Italian place in New York which was in Ugly Betty. In Toulouse I’d suggest going to an ex French international rugby player’s fab restaurant. In Madrid there’s a buzzing tapas market which is amazing. There’s a fantastic place in Krakow which serves Michelin food at pub prices, my list of recommendations goes on. I love adding to my list with my own experiences and suggestions from friends. Hopefully you won’t need to test me, but I do come into my own when problems arise. I’ve helped friends, family and customers to get out of some tricky situations all over the world! This includes helping my customers when: trouble began in Syria, a credit card didn’t work in Sydney, mountain rescuers were needed in France, and when the nanny of one of my customer’s phoned in sick while she was skiing. I understand that travel is important, it could be the two weeks you’ve looked forward to all year, it’s the trip you deserve after a career at the grindstone, it’s your honeymoon, and it’s your first break away from the kids. Whatever your trip, it’s important to me to get it right.
