I haven’t just restricted myself to Europe, I have been to various US States, UAE, Mauritius, Seychelles, Malaysia, Vietnam, South Africa & the Caribbean.I love a good City Break, a beach holiday, a touring holiday, winter break, a cruise – you name it, I love it.

This comprehensive service includes everything you would expect - flights, accommodation, tours, cruises, visa and passport information and immunisation guidelines.The aspect of my job I enjoy the most is the relationships I build with my clients, and the challenge and interest of exploring your travel requirements. During my career, I have built up a vast amount of industry knowledge and I hope to draw on this experience to assist you in your travel plans. From an initial enquiry through to a completed booking, my priority is to provide the highest level of service and to make the booking process enjoyable and personal.My initial introduction to a life in travel was in my early 20s, at a time when I had the chance to take a year off and take my time visiting Asia, Australia, New Zealand and central America. This gave me a passion that I wanted to take in to working life, so on my return I ditched other possible career plans and applied for my number one option!Having subsequently embarked on my career, I have been lucky enough to experience even more destinations, in a variety of different styles. From trekking holidays in Bhutan, Nepal and Corsica, to luxury safaris in Tanzania & Kenya, beach holidays in Thailand, Turkey and the Greek Islands, plus tours of Uganda, Lebanon, India, Brazil and Argentina. I consider myself extremely fortunate to have travelled so widely, and to take these experiences in to my work. I've enjoyed my time so much along the way, working with great colleagues and especially meeting my brilliant clients.So, if you are thinking of a future trip of any sort, please get in touch and we can look at a trip together, and I can add you to that list!

    Welcome 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.

    I’m Jenny from Boston Spa, West Yorkshire, and I can’t wait to help you plan your next adventure.I design authentic, tailor-made trips that reflect who you are and how you love to travel. Whether you’re after a weekend city break, an action-packed adventure, a luxury escape, or a bespoke multi-stop itinerary around the world, I focus on attention to detail and a truly personalised service; creating unique, memorable experiences just for you.Travel has always been a huge part of who I am. My passion for seeing the world started early. I still remember the excitement of my school trip to Russia! That sense of curiosity and adventure never left me and by my twenties I decided to take the plunge and backpack solo around the world for 16 incredible months. From bustling cities and remote mountain villages to quiet beaches where time seemed to stand still. Every moment taught me something new about cultures, people and myself. Those experiences changed the way I see travel. That it's not just about ticking off destinations but the stories you collect along the way, the people you meet, the food you try and the memories that say with you long after you've unpacked your bags. Now, as a mum of three, I've loved sharing that same spirit of adventure with my family with extended trips to Australia, New Zealand and South East Asia; creating memories that will last a lifetime. Seeing the world through their eyes has been magical and it's reminded me how travel can bring families closer together with the shared experience. Over the years, one thing I've discovered about myself is how much I enjoy the planning side of the trip. I love diving into the details, researching the best routes, finding those hidden gems and putting itineraries together that flow seamlessly. For me, half the joy is in making sure everything is thoughtfully organised so that when you travel, you can relax knowing that nothing has been left to chance.

    Hi I'm Pam and welcome to my page.I live in the Rochdale area and have worked within the travel industry for more than 31 years so it’s relatively safe to say I know a thing or two about travel.My client base is extensive and rapidly growing for both business and leisure. My business is based on referrals, so I like to think my growth is down to the high level of service I provide, which most important of all provides you, the customer, with total peace of mind.As you are probably aware the industry is rapidly changing. In order to meet the challenge of change we at Travel Counsellors are equipped with the most up to date technology that permits me to give you, the customer, precise advice that is geared totally around your own individual requirements.Why Travel Counsellors and not a high street agency you may ask yourself? On the high street the conventional method of selling is directional. Therefore you’ll be recommended specific companies which benefit that particular high street agency. In contrast, I’m completely independent so I have no ties to any particular tour operator or supplier. I’ll recommend the holiday that is right for you and is geared to your individual requirements. In addition, I offer a 24 hour service. I’m always available, and it will always be me that you deal with as there are no call centres. I’ll be there on the end of the phone should you require anything prior, during, or after your trip.So if you want a holiday that is as individual as you, where your business is valued and not just a sales statistic, be it a cruise, UK break, ferry or flight, why not give me a try?I look forward to hearing from you.All the BestPam

    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

    Andreia Bryant

    01844 660010 Buckinghamshire

    If you fell in love with the beauty of Brazil and the stunning scenery of South America while watching the BBC’s Race Across The World…then I could be the perfect Travel Counsellor for you! I grew up to the rhythm of the Samba beat, have been on the best beaches in Rio like The Girl From Ipanema, and have actually sipped cocktails on the roof terrace of The Hotel Unique in São Paulo where the TV celebrity contestants reached one of their destinations. I may come from Brazil, but South America is my passion. Only last year I planned my own solo two-week trip to the wonders of Machu Picchu in Peru. Now, I would love to organise an amazing adventure for you…and unlike the TV stars, I promise not to send you on 21-hour overnight coach trips! Travel and exploration have been in my blood since I left my home and came to the bright lights of London nearly 30 years ago. These days I am happy living in the rolling Chiltern Hills, high above High Wycombe in Bucks, with my three children. But if I am a country girl at heart, I also have a penchant for City breaks across Europe, or once in a lifetime family trips off the beaten track, like sleeping on a river boat in Vietnam. My idea of travel is to indulge in all the senses. Local food and cookery courses; fashion shows, shopping and spas, and of course the history and culture of the people we meet along the way. Studying maps, scanning brochures, and scrolling through endless hotel apps only gets you so far. Having a Travel Counsellor expert on hand, with hot tips on where’s good to go and – just as importantly – where to avoid, can make all the difference. My business background is long and varied, from retail to restaurants, to teaching and healthcare. I have been my own boss and worked in a team, but when I look back the common thread has been dealing with people and delivering the best service, tailor-made to each individual requirement.

    Norman Taylor

    01942 321111 Wigan

    Hello, 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

I’m an experienced traveller and hospitality event planner with a passion for exploring the world and enjoying its many cuisines. My goal is to help you discover destinations in a way that feels personal, authentic, and memorable. After spending over ten years in France, I’ve had the chance to explore much of Europe, North and South America, Asia, and the Middle East. These travels have given me a deep appreciation for the connection between people, culture, and food. I create travel experiences that let you do more than just see a place—you get to truly experience it. That might mean visiting a local market, taking part in a hands-on workshop, or enjoying a private meal that showcases regional flavours. Each itinerary is designed to reflect the spirit of the destination and to make every moment special. My background in hospitality, along with my time living in the south of France and the French Alps, has shaped my approach to travel planning. I bring together culture, history, cuisine, and adventure—whether that means finding a hidden local gem, enjoying the slopes, or discovering a quiet spot away from the crowds. If you’re ready to start your next adventure—one that’s full of discovery, great food, and lasting memories—I’d love to be your guide. Let’s plan a journey that blends exploration, relaxation, and flavour in perfect balance. Get in touch, and let’s start planning your next great experience.

    I am proud to have owned my Travel Counsellor franchise for 17 years now.Having studied Travel & Toursim at College I have had a varied and extensive career within the industry I love. From P&O, Princess Cruises, Austravel, Australian Affair, Ebookers, Lasminute.com and Quest Travel I have predominately worked in senior management. I have loved the opportunites my roles have given me by allowing me to visit and explore some of the most beautiful destinations, both long and short haul. As the names imply a number of these companies specialised in Tour Operating to Australasia where I was fortunate enough to visit many times each year including hosting numerous journalists taking them to far flung areas of these beautiful destinations. Austravel saw me living in Manhattan whilst running the North American division of Austravel covering 15 locations including one in Canada.Everything I arrange is bespoke. It does not matter if it's a detailed longhaul holiday or a short city break, it is always put together based on my individual customers needs and requirements, nothing is 'off the shelf' as our requirements are as unique as we are as people.Given my industry experience I prefer not work with mainstream Tour Operators. By working directly with our contracted airlines, hotels, specialist suppliers and local operators I know you will be well looked after at every stage of your holiday. Ensuring you have the best experiences throughout is a priority to me. Indeed the covid years have further reinforced my working practises as I have had to cancel and change so many holidays. This has been done with ease as I have been the one in control alongside the relevant service provider making it simple to obtain refunds or to amend. I am also backed up by an amazing 24/7 team .Not exhaustive but I can arrange: City Breaks, River Cruises, Ocean & Adventure Cruises Longhaul, Shorthaul holidays and detailed multi centre or round the world itineraries. Family, couples or singles holidays. Ski, Lapland Weddings, Honeymoons Private planes, helicopters and yachts. ...... Nothing is ImpossiblePlease feel free to call me so that we can chat about your travel requirements and aspirations. For more convenience you can arrange to meet with me, at a mutually agreeable time, at the Hobo Private Members Club Loughton.I look forward to hearing from you and becoming your Personal Travel Counsellor.VickyIF YOU CAN DREAM IT I CAN CREATE IT.

    Welcome to Travel Counsellors and thanks for visiting my page.I’m based in Tonbridge, Kent and I absolutely love travel, however, I can fully appreciate that booking your holiday can be time consuming, frustrating, stressful and the choice can be overwhelming; which is where I come in.My travel has taken me all over the world, with the most recent trip being a week in Sri Lanka. Last year I had a fabulous two-month tour of Japan, New Zealand and French Polynesia. Other favourite destinations in the last few years have been Antarctica (yes, it was amazing!), Costa Rica, Singapore and the Seychelles. I have had the privilege of spending a year in Australia and three months travelling in South America, visiting Argentina, Chile, Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador (including the Galapagos) and Colombia. I combined backpacking with five-star hotels, trekked to Machu Picchu and boated down the Amazon - incredible experiences that will stay with me forever. I try to learn a few words everywhere I go and love to experiment with the local food, although being vegetarian, that has sometimes been slightly disastrous (especially in Japan!)I put my knowledge and experience into planning your perfect trip – whether that’s a weekend away in the UK, to a week in the sun, to the trip of a lifetime; let me take care of it to get it tailored just for you. I am an independent travel adviser and I want to get it right for each and every one of my clients, so there’s no hard sell.As well as benefitting from my expertise, you can rest assured in the knowledge that your booking will have full financial protection of Travel Counsellor’s unique Financial Trust, as well as being ATOL protected. Our 24/7 Duty Office ensures that whatever happens, you have immediate access to help and support, wherever and whenever you are.I don’t want you to come back from a holiday that I have helped with thinking ‘that was OK’ - I want to exceed expectations wherever possible and give you the fantastic time away that you deserve.

    Hello and thank 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!

I have stargazed from the summit of Mauna Kea volcano on Big Island, Hawaii. Watched delicate wisps of vapour, trail from the summit of Mount Everest. Kayaked amongst pristine blue icebergs in the Valdez region of Alaska. Had the thrill of drinking in a bar with Basil, a wild hippo, in Kafue NP, Zambia. Awoken to the most amazing sunrise of Monument Valley from the top of Hunts Mesa in Utah. Listened in awe at the amazing bird song on New Zealand’s Ulva Island. These are some of my amazing experiences and memories that I have to share with clients, friends and family. Everyone's perfect trip is unique, I take great pride in delivering a service that matches your unique requirements.

    I am an experienced travel agent in Halifax and specialise in tailor making itineraries to suit all budgets. I have been a travel agent for 26 years. I joined Travel Counsellors in 2004 and I can honestly say I have never looked back. I have just celebrated my 20th anniversary with Travel Counsellors. I have been on many holidays and educational trips which include most of the Greek Islands, Portugal, Cyprus, Spain, Canary Islands, Turkey, Paris, Barcelona, Venice, Florence, Prague, Dublin, Jersey, Miami, California, New York, Antigua, Dubai, Doha, Bermuda, Antigua, Jamaica and I have been on many cruises and sailing holidays. I have just returned from a fantastic trip to Thailand, wow! What an amazing holiday. The food and hospitality were wonderful but the heart of the experience was the Thai people. I also visited an elephant sanctuary which was a beautiful and humbling encounter.My favourite place I have visited with my family so far is Santorini. It has to be the prettiest place I have ever seen and serves the most delicious cuisine. I would love to visit South Africa which I plan to do sometime in the near future. I love being a Travel Counsellor because I can spend time finding my customers the right holiday, without any targets to meet or any directional selling. The technology I have is fantastic and enables me to search a number of airlines and suppliers at my fingertips. I have a vast knowledge of travel and specialise in tailor-making holidays anywhere in the world. Working from home means I am available at a time to suit my customers, including evenings and weekend. Importantly I pride myself on the high level of service I provide my customers and the friendships and trust that have been formed. My clients come back to me time after time for all their travel needs because they are so happy with the service they receive. I hope to hear from you soon.
