    I would like to welcome you to my page and introduce myself to you. My name is Jodie Rainton, married to Danny and we have 2 gorgeous children. I have had a passion for travel since I was a very young girl when I was lucky enough to sit with my parents whilst they booked our annual family holiday. I decided at that very young age the travel industry was what I was destined to go into. On leaving school I applied to all the local travel agents for a job and was lucky enough to be offered a position as a modern apprentice in a local high street store. I worked very hard in this role and I was offered a fulltime position as a travel advisor and have had a very successful career in the travel industry for over 18 years. I have always been an ‘A’ performer and very proud of my achievements. My passion and attention to detail when organising my own holiday is exceptional, and I would treat any customer enquiry with the same approach and enthusiasm. In the 18 years I have worked in the industry I have been privileged to travel to many foreign places, these include New York, Las Vegas, Florida, Cruises, Ski Holidays and many European countries, so I am confident my experience and product knowledge will assist you well when you are looking for you chosen destination. I can tailor-make your dream holiday, whether it’s a short UK break or a Worldwide holiday of a lifetime. I offer a personal service and can be available at a time to suit you, whether it is an evening appointment or a weekend, we are not set to shop hours so this flexibility is also an advantage. We cover all our holidays with the best financial protection in the industry to give you the comfort of knowing your booking is in safe hands. It will be an honour to look after you and all your travel requirements from your enquiry through to your return to the UK. I look forward to helping with your future holiday requests.

    Making Special MemoriesEveryone has a story about a fondly remembered holiday – very often more than one. These might be from childhood, a first trip to an exotic destination, or perhaps a trip to celebrate a special occasion. Whichever it is, one thing is for certain, holidays hold a special place in our hearts and minds and give us memories that we treasure.But putting together something as simple as a city break, let alone your dream trip, can be stressful. With the world to choose from – where is the perfect destination for us? What is the best way of booking it – direct or through an agent of some sort? Will my trip be financially protected? What if something goes wrong – how do I get help when I am away?These are all legitimate questions, and I help my clients by providing the answers.Let me introduce myself. My name is Neil.For the past 10 years it’s been my pleasure to help make every client’s holiday not just special, but hopefully one that they will talk about years later. I take pride in the service I deliver to achieve this, and really do care about making every trip you take as perfect as it can be.Why place your trust in me?Four decades of working in the travel industry, including managing a large tour operator and travelling the world to inspect hotels for over 20 years, has helped give me a unique insight into what makes the difference between a good holiday, and a truly memorable one.I build strong relationships with clients, and am fortunate that, through years of repeat bookings, many have become friends. As a Travel Counsellor, I set out to deliver on your detailed personal requirements, not just the generic travel arrangements. This means I take time to listen and understand what’s really important to you. I want to make sure your trip is everything you want it to be - it’s important to me both professionally and personally. I make sure I am available to discuss your requirements at any time, including in the evening and over the weekend. You can contact me by phone, email, or via social media sites. I would also be delighted to meet you at my office or in the comfort of your home. After your booking has been made, I will provide all the vital information you need for your trip to go smoothly. Once your holiday starts, I can monitor your itinerary, and remind you about important deadlines, ensuring everything is booked as it should be, leaving you to enjoy a stress free time away.So where will you go next?From a trip to the Cotswolds to a round-the-world tour, I can organise your memorable trip for you. It might take you across the world to the land of down under, or to the tropical delights of South-East Asia. You might have always wanted to see the Big Apple or the Grand Canyon. Maybe a cultural tour of Europe’s great capitals is your thing. Or is something more laid back your style – strolling along a white sand beach in the Caribbean perhaps?Whatever type of holiday you want, however large or small, I can certainly guide you. I deliver expert advice and take care of all your travel arrangements and needs; from the moment you leave home to the moment you get back. I hope to hear from you and start to help you create your next special memories.

Over the past 12 years we have visited many hotels and attractions across the island, so I know it really well and love sharing those first hand tips. I have also travelled to Dubai and to Doha in Qatar. Qatar in particular is very up and coming, and I would highly recommend both destinations, even if it is just for a stopover on a longer journey. I am also a big fan of European city breaks. Christmas markets are a favourite of mine, and Bruges and Prague are wonderful options for a festive escape.A little about me: I have been travelling for over 20 years and in all that time I have only had one flight cancelled. Thanks to the support and “thinking outside the box” approach of Travel Counsellors, we only missed one night of our holiday. Experiencing that level of care first hand made a huge impression on me. It showed me how important it is not just to create amazing holidays, but also to make sure that if something does go wrong, you are never left feeling alone or abandoned. There is always someone ready to help and go the extra mile. That is exactly why I became a Travel Counsellor: to offer that same reassurance and support to my own customers.Whether you are dreaming of a once in a lifetime escape or simply a much needed short break, I can create a bespoke itinerary that is tailored just for you. You will have the security of booking with the Travel Counsellors family, so you can relax knowing your holiday is in safe hands. I have access to flexible flights and trusted travel partners all over the world, as well as local tour guides who can help you discover the real culture of your chosen destination. With our easy to use MyTC app, you can view quotes, make payments and access your travel documents all in one place, ready for when it is time to go.The world feels more accessible than ever, with so many incredible places to visit and unforgettable experiences to enjoy. Whether you are travelling solo, as a couple, with family, or as part of a group, there are options made just for you.I feel very lucky to have travelled to many different countries and stayed in a wide variety of hotels and accommodation types. I have experienced travel as a couple, as a family, and with extended family of different ages and mobilities. I know first hand how these different dynamics can change what you need from your holiday, and this is where I can really help.As a Travel Counsellor, I pride myself on offering a truly personal service.

My goal is to help you discover destinations in a way that feels personal, authentic, and memorable.

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.

  • Brian Costello

    02071250008 London

    Hi and thank you for taking the time to view my profile.My passion for travel started back in 1993 when after six years of working for National Westminster Bank, I decided I wanted to see the world. I travelled to Africa, India, Nepal, Thailand, Mexico, Guatemala and finally Canada where I stayed for three years working in an art gallery in Toronto, and worked my way across to Vancouver with the same company.On my return to the UK in 1997, I started a position with Fidelity Investments but quickly realised my bug for travel was not satiated and in 1998, embarked on a trip to the Philippines, Fiji and Australia where I worked for St George Bank for nine months. I visited Guatemala for the second time travelling by bus through Mexico up to San Francisco where I stayed for five years. I travelled extensively across the west coast visiting Oregon, Utah, Idaho, Wyoming and Nevada and of all the places I visited, Lake Tahoe is my favourite. I returned to the UK in 2003 and naturally it made perfect sense to me to embark on a career in travel so I joined Flightcentre UK, firstly in the direct stores in New Malden, then moving to Sutton Surrey store where I remained until 2007. I was sent on numerous educational trips to destinations such as South Africa, New Zealand, Rio, New York and countless European countries all of which were fantastic and enabled me to gain an extensive knowledge of how travel operators and hotels work. I happily share this knowledge with customers and colleagues alike with the aim of benefitting their travel experience.In 2007 I decided to move to Corporate Traveller. I was spending more and more time with corporate clients, establishing their needs, cementing business relationships, making recommendations and thus making savings. I managed a number of very high profile accounts, examples including Aston Martin, BBVA bank, Celebrity Speakers, Circassia Pharmaceutical and many others and I always maintained the relationships with both bookers and travellers to a very high standard. I have won customer service awards and was the only consultant in the company to attend the Global Ball in Berlin in 2018, (runner up in 2019) based on customer excellence survey results and pride myself on the relationships I have with my clients. I have now embarked on a career with Travel Counsellors, a company founded in 1994, with full ATOL protection, over two thousand staff, full out of hours protection, Queens award winner three times, a five star trust pilot rating, British Travel awards winners and most important of all for me, a company with a truly holistic approach to customers and consultants. Our priorities will always be your safety and your travel experience.Kind regards,Brian Costello.

    Thank you so much for visiting my page. You might not realise it yet, but by being here, you’re supporting a genuine small business. One where every holiday I plan, starts with truly listening to what matters to you. After 17 wonderful years working in the travel industry, I took a leap of faith in 2025 and launched my own travel business. Those years were filled with incredible opportunities, from coordinating large group getaways and overseas weddings to working alongside tourism boards across the USA, Caribbean and Canada, helping travellers discover new destinations. Early in my career, I was the friendly face at your high street travel agency, and more recently, I supported exciting digital projects at Travel Counsellors’ head office.Now, I pour all of that experience into designing holidays that are unique to you. I take the time to truly get to know my clients... asking the sort of questions that many travel companies simply won’t. My aim is to understand not just where you want to go, but what you love and what you’d prefer to avoid. There is no ‘one size fits all’ with me, it’s always personal, always tailored, and you can always expect a prompt reply, whether you reach out by phone, WhatsApp, email, or DM.If you’d like to learn more, please have a look at my blogs, scroll through my socials, or read some of the lovely testimonials from people I’ve helped before. However you prefer to get in touch, I’m here, ready to chat through your ideas and help you plan a holiday as individual as you are.Your booking is always protected by a 100% financially secure Trust Fund, and the reassurance of a 24/7 Duty Office, just in case. With my approach, you’ll always feel safe, valued, and genuinely cared for, from our first conversation until you return home. I can’t wait to help you design your next adventure...

  • Fiona Bell

    02890 080 016 Holywood

    My name is Fiona and I live near the lovely town of Holywood on the County Down coast.Thank you so much for visiting my website and here is a little bit about myself!My great love of travel started at the early age of 5 when my Dad used to take me to watch the planes taking-off and landing at Dulles Airport in Washington DC. I can also remember a game we played whereby he would ask me to name the capital city of various countries and I just got hours of amusement from this.After completing my degree in French at the Queens University of Belfast, I took a year out during which I spent 4 months in the beautiful city of Vancouver with my aunt and uncle. It was just an amazing time and, after that, I finally made my mind up that I wanted to start my working career in the travel industry.I now have over 30 years of experience in mainly business travel and it really is hard to believe where the time has gone! I started in the travel agency environment before I moved into the IT industry nearly 18 years ago where my expertise was, for the most part, used to manage corporate travel programs. I guess, therefore, that I can say I’ve worked on both sides of the fence so have an excellent understanding of the needs of both the client and the supplier.The company which I most recently worked for has 5 core values: integrity, passion, innovation, humility and transparency and I genuinely believe that I live my life in accordance with these values. They are of a great help to me in my workplace and personal life.I am absolutely delighted to now be at the stage in my career of running my own business and helping corporates to manage their travel programs. That said, I’m passionate about all aspects of travel and, in the knowledge that personal holidays are so important to us all, I would be more than happy to look after these too. I have travelled widely on long haul trips as well as weekend breaks and longer holidays within Europe.I pride myself in offering a personal, cost-effective and time-saving service. My working hours are flexible and I research each and every trip thoroughly to ensure best value, suitability and convenience are obtained. The term “that’ll do” just does not come into my vocabulary.I do hope that my service may be of interest to you. I really would appreciate the opportunity to work with you with the aim of creating that “perfect trip” over and over again!Best Wishes, Fiona

    Hello, thanks for taking the time to visit my webpage. Travel and exploring our big wide world has been my great passion since I first put on a backpack in my 20s. Fast forward 30 years and I still love exploring new countries and destinations; I find the different sounds, smells, culture, food and people of a new place fascinating. Travel rarely fails to put a smile on my face and while I fell into the travel industry by chance, I feel grateful and privileged to still be a part of it 25 years later. Sharing the excitement of my clients' trips is nearly as good as getting away myself! I'm lucky to still head overseas at least a few times each year and have been very fortunate to have visited over 40 countries across six continents so far, including extended trips across the USA, Australia and South East Asia. * Australia * New Zealand * Fiji * * USA * Mexico * Belize * Costa Rica * Guatemala * * Cuba * St Lucia * Antigua * Dominican Republic * * Europe * Morocco * Egypt * * Kenya * Uganda * Rwanda * South Africa * Namibia * * Mauritius * Maldives * Sri Lanka * India * * Thailand * Malaysia * Cambodia * Indonesia * * Singapore * Hong Kong * Japan * It’s impossible to pick a favourite, and the list gets longer each year, but some of my more memorable travel experiences are: - Meeting orangutans and watching spectacular bat migrations in Borneo - Watching a family of mountain gorillas and getting a little too close to a silverback in Rwanda - Playing with local children while waiting on a border crossing between Uganda and Rwanda - Waterfalls and paddy fields in Indonesia; eating Nasi Goreng from banana leaves with my fingers - Swimming in the waterholes above and beneath waterfalls in Kakadu NP and Edith Falls in the outback of Northern Australia - Driving at about 5mph to avoid the many rock wallabies hopping onto and across the road at dusk in The Grampians NP, Victoria - The fountains and fireballs at Southbank Casino, Melbourne - Springtime drives in the South Island of New Zealand with tiny newborn lambs in the fields - Incredible snorkelling and beautiful beaches in Fiji and the Maldives - My first taste of octopus, cooked over a fire in a beachside homestay in Fiji - Bright lights and fun fuelled evenings with friends on Hong Kong Island - Hearing the harrowing tsunami recollections of so many Sri Lankan locals just a year after the event - Savouring the perfect truffle risotto in Verona - The ethereal beauty of a wintry Iceland - Stargazing in Australia with shooting stars galore! - Cocktails, jazz and dancing at Frenchmen Street, New OrleansTaking the time to list the memories drives home how very fortunate I've been. Travel for me is all about new experiences and lasting memories, and that's what I endeavour to bring to each trip I help to create for my customers. I've booked all kinds of trips over the years, but nothing beats crafting a bespoke holiday. It's a joy to combine my firsthand knowledge of destinations with fresh research to help create that perfect trip for you. I haven't been everywhere, but with over 2000 Travel Counsellors to consult, there's not much I can't find out. My advice to you: stop trawling the myriad options online and let an expert guide you. I do the hard work so you don't have to! One size never fits all. I’ll ask the right questions to understand fully what makes you tick. Whatever the occasion, whatever the budget, I will ensure we find the right trip for you.Before, during and after booking, I'm on hand to answer your questions and my personal service is always just a phone call away. Everything booked through me has 100% financial protection for your complete peace of mind, and I have the support of Travel Counsellors' 24/7 Duty Office monitoring world events and entry regulations for our peace of mind.

    Our free time with our loved ones is precious, and we need to get it right.During exam revision at university, I spent every lunch break in the local travel shop, browsing the magazines and dreaming of where I would go when I had finished. I completed my degree, travelled for a year, and qualified as an accountant, working in London. But what started as a way to escape my studies grew into a passion for researching and planning travel. As a result, I took extensive training in the Travel Counsellor Academy, and started my own independent travel business in May 2016.I take time to get to know my clients, their travel dreams and their absolute must-haves. I listen to the details of what works for them and what needs to be avoided. I genuinely care that they have the best holidays possible, and that the planning process is as smooth and as fun as it can be.I can help you with travel plans for all worldwide destinations, and all holiday styles. I have travelled extensively, and with great variety, staying in $4 guesthouses in Phnom Penh, and 5* resorts in St Lucia. In 2016 I returned from four years living in Barbados, so I would consider myself an expert on this location, and the surrounding islands. I love to attend and participate in sporting and musical events as I travel. I’ve golfed in Patagonia, dived with sharks in Saba, partied at Coachella festival, and cheered on the Heat in Miami. Not that you need an excuse, but if you want to travel for a specific interest, I look forward to hearing all about it, and building your holidays accordingly.My hours are flexible and I can discuss your travel requirements at a time that suits you, including weekends and evenings. Location permitting (I am based in Sevenoaks), I am happy to meet you face-to-face, or to communicate by skype, email or phone. It’s your choice; my aim is to make your travel planning as stress-free as possible.Whatever your travel requirements, please get in touch. You’ll be talking to someone who listens, who cares, and who can make it happen.“Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.” - Ferris Bueller’s Day Off

After returning to the UK we decided we wanted to go and live in Australia, and moved to Perth where I opened a dog sitting/walking business.Since returning to the UK, I have been on a variety of different holidays from budget city breaks to luxury beach holidays, from backpacking to skiing through snowy mountains.

  • Ian Gifford

    01865987310 Chalgrove

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

    Hi, I’m DanielleI’m a luxury travel consultant based in Luton, living with my husband, our children, and our dog, Ozzie. Travel has always been more than something I enjoy. It has been a constant part of my life, and for the past nine years it has been my full-time career.I work with clients who want their holidays to feel effortless, considered, and genuinely special. Not rushed. Not generic. And definitely not one size fits all. My role is not just to book flights and hotels. It is to listen properly, understand how you want your trip to feel, and then design a journey that fits you perfectly.As part of Travel Counsellors, I have access to a worldwide network of trusted partners, suppliers, and in-destination experts. This allows me to create tailor-made holidays that go far beyond what you will find online. That might be a beautifully balanced multi-centre itinerary, a luxury beach escape, a once-in-a-lifetime cruise, or a family holiday where everything simply works.I plan everything from honeymoons and anniversaries to bucket-list trips, city breaks, cruises, and luxury family travel. I also work with leading travel brands such as Jet2holidays, TUI, EasyJet Holidays, Royal Caribbean, MSC Cruises, P&O Cruises, and many more, alongside specialist operators for tours, cruises, and bespoke itineraries worldwide.One service I am especially proud of is my Honeymoon Gift Registry. It allows couples to create a personalised honeymoon fund where wedding guests can contribute towards the cost of your Honeymoon. It is simple, beautifully presented, and takes one more thing off your plate during wedding planning.I also offer travel gift vouchers and experience gifts, which make a thoughtful alternative to traditional presents and create memories that last far longer than things.What truly sets my service apart is the level of care and attention I give every booking. I manage every detail from start to finish, including flights, transfers, hotels, experiences, and timings, so everything flows exactly as it should. You will always have a real person to talk to, honest advice, and support before, during, and after you travel.For peace of mind, all bookings are protected by ATOL and Financial Trust Protection. Just as importantly, you will know someone is looking after your holiday as if it were their own.If you are looking for a travel expert who genuinely cares about getting it right, whether you are planning something simple or something truly special, I would love to help.Let’s create a trip you will talk about long after you are home ✨Danielle

    Hi, my name is Natalie, and I am your local travel counsellor based in Glasgow, where I live with my partner Scott, daughter Zoe, and the wonderful Daisy dog. My travel journey started at age 18, when I went to work in Mallorca and fell in love with the island as a whole.

I have been living in sunny Glasgow for many years now, and since having Zoe, my travels have been more family-friendly holidays around Europe to Spain, Greece, Portugal, and Turkey, along with cruising the Mexican Riviera, so you can say that I am fairly knowledgeable in different areas and no stranger to overseas adventures. I absolutely love anything associated with travel and would be delighted to assist you in your travel plans with whatever takes your fancy, from a city break to a cruise around the Caribbean or a tailor-made multi-centre trip.
