  • Annette Allmond

    01865 374758 Oxford

    Hi,My name is Annette and as your Travel Counsellor, I am here to help you find your dream holiday.I am based in Oxford, a beautiful city, and I have worked in travel now for 25 years. Before becoming a Travel Counsellor in August 2000, I worked for a local independent agency and prior to that a well-known high street agency. In this time I have experienced a number of wonderful places including the Caribbean, South Africa, Dubai, Mauritius, Bermuda, Australia, Israel, the Far East, America, Canada and Europe to name but a few! Some of them have been educational trips through work.Whether you are thinking of a weekend break in Paris, a Honeymoon in the Seychelles, an Alaskan Cruise or a family holiday to Disneyland Florida, I have lots of information and helpful tips to make sure your next holiday is exactly what you are after. Importantly I can ensure I give you value for money. I benefit from being part of a large company so their buying power helps me to secure some fantastic deals. I am also independent so not tied to selling any one operator or supplier, so you’ll get more choice and end up with a holiday that is selected because it is right for you.My favourite destination is the Caribbean - closely followed by Mauritius and the Maldives. I am a Caribbean specialist and any chance I have, I try to expand my knowledge even further!! There is such diversity as all the islands are different, so you’ll find something for every taste. I have to admit that personally I go on a lot of sun and sand holidays. However, I also enjoy active holidays such as a South African safari. To stay at Shamwari which is Malaria free and then travel the Garden Route ending up in Cape Town is absolutely amazing!!I pride myself on my excellent customer service and commitment to finding the right holiday for you. I will always go the extra mile for you! The unique concept of having your own Travel Counsellor means you are able to arrange your next dream holiday in the comfort of your own home or office. You’ll always talk to the same person, and I’m available at a time to suit you, even if that’s a late evening or weekend. So whether it’s that dream holiday you have been promising yourself, a weekend break, honeymoon or a business trip - give me a call or send me an email.I look forward to hearing from you soon.Kind regardsAnnette

    Hi I'm Michael, thanks for reading my webpage.I am a travel expert based in Leeds with 37 years’ experience and I offer a bespoke service tailored to my clients' individual requirements. I arrange group, leisure and corporate travel to all parts of the world. My areas of speciality include travel to Europe, Southern Africa (especially amazing South Africa where I can offer a range of unique, sustainably focussed experiences that no one else in the UK travel trade offers), and also the Caribbean, United States & Asia. I am committed to playing my part in seeing that travel becomes more sustainable. Tourism is a key driver of many countries' economies, and we need to ensure that the benefits of it are shared fairly. In partnership with UK charity The Travel Foundation, I have undertaken training on sustainable travel practices, and conducted research into this subject in order to develop a range of tourist experiences in South Africa. These are focussed on ensuring there is the maximum possible economic benefit in the destination, and that this is shared as widely as possible. I am also recognised as a South Africa Specialist by South Africa Tourism in London. If you're looking for something a bit more personal and bespoke than what the high street chains and internet offer, and if you like the idea of having a professional look after your travel arrangements, saving you time, hassle and money. please give me a call for a chat - or send a message from the link on my webpage.Best wishesMichael

    Planning a holiday can feel overwhelming - from countless tabs and endless research to juggling family needs and finding the right experiences for everyone. That’s where I come in.I’m Rebecca - self-confessed travel addict and your personal guide to unforgettable holidays. Based in North London, I specialise in crafting tailor-made trips for families, professionals, and adventure seekers throughout the UK. I design holidays that are stress-free, seamless, and full of memories, ensuring every moment of your journey is perfectly planned for you. When you work with me, you’ll never have to worry about the details. I handle everything from researching destinations and finding the best flights, to booking accommodation, planning activities, and providing 24/7 support while you’re away.Travel has been my passion for as long as I can remember. As a child, I spent hours poring over holiday brochures, dreaming of faraway places and adventures. That curiosity never faded. Over the past two decades, I’ve explored 49 countries (and counting!), from bustling street food markets in Thailand and Vietnam, to tranquil beaches in Bali and Malaysia; from the cultural richness of India and Sri Lanka, to safaris across Southern Africa and the snow-dusted magic of Lapland. I’ve wandered through ancient cities in China, hiked dramatic landscapes in New Zealand, and gathered all the top tips you’ll need for Disney in Orlando and Paris. Each journey has deepened my understanding of what makes a holiday truly special, and what can make it stressful if not planned right.Whether it’s a luxury family escape, a small group adventure, a multi-generational trip, or a once-in-a-lifetime safari, I design holidays around your needs. I know first hand the joys and challenges of travelling with children. As a mum, I understand how family needs evolve - what works for toddlers won’t always suit teens, and different generations often have different ideas of fun. From flights that maximise sleep, to accommodation that keeps everyone comfortable, to activities that engage all ages, I make sure your trip works for every member of the family. My goal is simple: to create holidays that are as relaxing and joyful for parents as they are inspiring and exciting for children.My expertise doesn’t stop at family travel. For adventure travellers, I work closely with leading small group operators such as Intrepid Travel, G Adventures, and Exodus, with no extra cost to you when booking through me. If you prefer to set your own pace, I can tailor every detail to suit your interests and sense of adventure, from exploring hidden corners of Southeast Asia, to tracking wildlife on safari, or venturing off the beaten track in Australia or New Zealand.With 19+ years in the travel industry and nearly a decade as a Travel Counsellors, I am proud to be one of our Top 100 Gold Advisors. I combine personal insight with professional connections, giving my clients access to trusted partners, insider tips, and experiences you won’t find online. I guide you from the first spark of inspiration, right through booking, pre-travel prep, and 24/7 support while you’re away.I love what I do because it’s never just “a holiday.” It’s the laughter of a family reunited on a beach, the awe of a first safari sighting, the quiet joy of seeing your children experience a culture or adventure you’ve dreamed of for them. These moments are why I travel myself, why I keep learning, and why I’m passionate about sharing the world with my clients.So, if planning your next holiday feels overwhelming, let’s talk. I’ll listen, I’ll guide, and I’ll take care of the details so all you need to do is enjoy the journey. Call me on 0203 432 4720 or email rebecca.berzins@mytc.com and let’s start creating your next unforgettable adventure.

    Hello! My Name is Sheena and I have been a dedicated travel professional for almost 20 years.

After studying an International Tourism Management degree, I started my career as a long-haul tailor-made travel expert 19 years ago and have never looked back. I feel so lucky that my job is to help people create their dream honeymoons, weddings abroad, special occasion holidays and travel itineraries where the most amazing memories are created.

Personally, I love exploring Europe these days too, so I enjoy arranging closer to home holidays for my customers as well.Of course, I love travelling and visiting wonderful destinations myself (68 countries and counting…). Australia, New Zealand and Southern Africa are 3 destinations that I have visited frequently as well as having lived in Florida and then Australia for a while. I have also travelled extensively in South America, North America & South East Asia as well as Russia, Mongolia and China. Being a homeworker means that I can be available to talk to you when you are not busy working or looking after the children, whether that’s on an evening or a weekend. How convenient - a Personal Travel Consultant available at times when you are!

Plus, to make sure your holiday is extra special, I will help arrange all the little extras that make it perfect, such as finding a romantic spot to propose, or the best seafood restaurant in the area, as well as any unique experiences.

    I don’t know about you but travelling is like a collection of moments, a journey through time – journeys and experiences that become etched into the fabric of our memories. As we wander through bustling markets, stroll along quiet beaches, and marvel at ancient wonders, we are not merely witnessing the world but creating memories. These memories, like cherished artifacts, are carefully packed into the suitcase of our minds, ready to be unpacked at the slightest hint of nostalgia.The beauty of travel memories lies in their ability to transport us. A single photograph can unleash a flood of emotions, carrying us back to that quaint café in Paris, snow in New York, sitting having tea with the Bedouin tribe in Petra, queuing for the best street food in Singapore or just sitting on that sunbed with a cocktail – bliss! There is no doubt though, that planning that perfect trip can be a daunting task so if you are dreaming of embarking on your next journey, exploring new destinations, and creating unforgettable memories I’d love to help. I’ll work with you to understand what you really want from your next trip, research every aspect of your holiday and look after the complete booking process – from flights, hotels, activities and all the little things so you don’t stress before or during your holiday. My own passion for travel started when I was 16 – I managed to persuade my mother that it would be really educational to live in Paris (on my own) for the summer holidays and that started my wanderlust. To this day I can’t believe she agreed but I am so glad that she let me spread my wings and have that experience. Since then, I haven’t stopped and I’ve been lucky enough to visit 53 wonderful countries and even live in places like the Netherlands, Belgium, Qatar, Oman, Thailand and Cambodia. I admit that some have been quick visits for work but I still get a buzz when I arrive in an airport and see all those destination monitors – oh the places we could go!My own wonderful memories include kayaking with dolphins on Milford Sound, snorkelling in the Great Barrier Reef, whale watching off Martha’s Vineyard, bathing elephants in Thailand, and seeing my daughter's look of wonder at Angkor. I could go on, but I’d actually rather hear about your own memories and the places you plan to travel to next. Why me? What sets me apart as a travel consultant is my commitment to delivering exceptional service. Whether you're seeking a relaxing beach getaway, an adventurous expedition, a romantic honeymoon, a cultural exploration, or anything in between, I can help you curate a journey that works for you. I work under the umbrella of Travel Counsellors. This means that I have access to thousands of carefully chosen suppliers to ensure you always receive the highest level of service. With 5-star Trustpilot reviews, 100% financial protection on everything you book with us and 24/7 support, wherever you are in the world, why would you go elsewhere?Ready to embark on your next great adventure?

    Hi, I’m Becky, your personal Travel Counsellor.I’m based in Walkern, Hertfordshire, where I live with my husband, daughter and our dog. Travel and fitness are my biggest passions, and I love nothing more than combining the two: think sunrise hikes, mountain summits, and active adventures balanced with a touch of luxury and relaxation.I also love a challenge, especially when it means raising money for causes close to my heart. In September 2025 I completed a summit of Mount Toubkal in Morocco in support of Reuben’s Retreat, and this year I have signed up for a midnight marathon in April to raise funds for our local hospice in Letchworth. These experiences reflect how I travel too: with purpose, determination and a big dose of heart.Recent travels have taken me from husky sledding through snowy forests in Finland and exploring the cities of Sweden and Paris, to soaking up the sun in Turkey, Ibiza and Crete, and setting sail on a Disney cruise to Belgium. I’ve also hosted a group trip to Morocco, hiked the breathtaking High Atlas Mountains, and summited Mount Toubkal, the highest peak in North Africa. It was such a highlight that I am planning to host another group trip there again. Closer to home, I have enjoyed time in Ireland, Dubai, the Lake District, Norfolk and cruising on Independence of the Seas.As you can probably tell, I truly live and breathe travel, and I bring that same energy, care and curiosity to every itinerary I design.I am passionate about creating all styles of holidays: • Relaxing beach escapes where you can fully switch off • Luxury, long-haul adventures and tailor-made itineraries • Family and multi-generational trips that keep everyone happy • Ocean and family cruises with plenty of built-in fun • Culturally rich journeys that go beyond the typical tourist trailBecause I run my own travel business from home, I am fully flexible and work around you. You might find me working from a local café with my laptop and a coffee, designing bespoke itineraries and responding quickly when my clients need me.When you book through me, you save yourself time, stress and endless scrolling. I have access to an extensive range of trusted travel partners around the world, as well as valuable local contacts to add those special touches: from a memorable restaurant reservation to a private guide or a surprise treat on arrival.Every trip you book with me is 100% financially protected through the Travel Counsellors Financial Trust and ATOL, providing some of the best protection in the industry.

    Congratulations, you have found me! I would love to show you just how passionate I am about your holidays.Yes, I love to travel. Yes, I have been around the world and back. Yes, I have decades of experience and knowledge, and I promise I will use all of this, along with my time and expert research, to create perfectly bespoke holidays that are totally tailored to your needs and desires. That is why I am a Travel Counsellor.I have always loved a challenge. Before children, I never chose a straightforward package holiday. I was forever looking for somewhere a little different, venturing off the beaten track, travelling by various modes of transport and soaking up the buzz of city breaks and cosmopolitan life.Now, with two teenagers, our holidays have simply evolved into a different kind of adventure. Instead of nap times and paddling pools, we are making memories on thrilling water slides, tackling theme parks together, trying new activities, and hunting down the best food spots and sunset viewpoints. I understand first-hand how family travel changes as children grow: from kids clubs and mini discos to older teens who want a bit more independence, Wi-Fi, space and experiences they will remember long after the selfies fade.That is why I am so passionate about designing holidays that work for your family at your stage of life: whether that is a special all-inclusive where everyone can relax, a multi-centre adventure, a once-in-a-lifetime trip further afield, or a city break carefully balanced between culture, fun and downtime.Just to name-drop a few destinations I have experienced in various ways: Australia and New Zealand, the Far East including Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore and Laos, the Indian Ocean including the Seychelles, India, Sri Lanka and the Maldives, the Middle East, the Americas including Brazil, Mexico, various Caribbean islands, the USA including Hawaii and Alaska, and Canada. And of course, Europe is right on our doorstep, perfect for a quick weekend away, a midweek escape or a classic sunshine break.Back to you: please do get in touch by filling in the form below so I can contact you, or simply pick up the phone and give me a call. I would love to hear from you and help turn your holiday ideas into reality. Whatever is on your bucket list, we can start ticking it off together. You will never be alone throughout your holiday: you can contact us 24 hours a day, every day of the year. I am here for you.

    Laura Sigsworth

    01223 929061 Cambridge

    I’m Laura, your personal Travel Counsellor, mum of two and long-time travel obsessive. I’m here to design journeys that really reflect you, your life and the way you like to travel.I’ve lived and worked abroad and fallen for places far away from the usual tourist spots. Over the years I have learned that the best memories come from real, everyday life; the tiny café you stumble across, the train ride where the landscape changes outside your window, the welcome you get in a small, family-run hotel. I love connecting my clients with those kinds of experiences, in ways that support local people and respect the places you visit.Slow, immersive travel is what I love most. I design trips so you can really get to know each place you visit, rather than rushing from sight to sight. My holidays are rich in local flavour and culture, but still feel comfortable, relaxed and easy to enjoy. Wherever possible, I look for choices that are more thoughtful for the planet too, whether that is travelling by rail, staying longer in fewer places or choosing partners who care about their communities.Family adventures are a big part of what I do. As a mum of two, I know the best trips with children are the ones where everyone gets to explore, try something new and still have space to unwind. I plan journeys that feel like genuine adventures, not routine holidays, with memories you will talk about for years.When you book with me, you are looked after from the first idea to the moment you arrive back home. You have one dedicated point of contact, recommendations shaped around what you love, and the reassurance of travelling with an experienced Travel Counsellor by your side every step of the way.If you are ready for something a bit different, I would love to help you plan your next adventure.

Your holiday isn't just about the destination, it's about your experience from our very first conversation, to the moment you arrive home. Along the way, things don't always go the way we expect and booking with me means you don't have to solve any issues - simply leave it to me.

    Travel is my passion. If you are here because you are looking for help with a holiday, you have come to the right place! My love for exploring the big wide world and discovering different cultures was sparked at a very young age when travelling with my parents. Roll on 30 years and my husband and (now teenage) children will tell you that no holiday of ours is ever the same – they don’t get to stay in one place for long and there are always a few excursions and adventures thrown in for good measure! The world is a big place to explore and the bucket list never stops growing ….With 30 years of travel industry experience behind me in both leisure and corporate business travel covering a variety of skills and roles, making the decision to create and build my own business with the backing of the well respected and established ‘Travel Counsellors’ has been the highlight and best decision of my career.I enjoy nothing more than really getting to know my clients and digging deep to understand their desires so I can bring their dreams to life. The service I provide is truly personal, friendly, caring and comprehensive and this is what I am proud to boast sets my business apart from other holiday booking companies and platforms, particularly the internet! After all, who wants to be treated as just a number/transaction!?To get the very best out of your holiday, I believe every trip should always be approached with careful thought and guidance as well as in depth research along with thorough comprehensive planning – it should never be anything less that just perfect! After all, whatever dream and whichever continent you are searching for, be it the exhilaration of conquering a piste in an Alpine Ski Resort, soaking up the dazzling lights and unbeatable vibe of N.Y.C, an adventure to the Masai Mara to experience the great migration from a Hot Air Balloon, watching the magic on your families faces as they meet Mickey Mouse and Co at Disney, indulging the Eastern Charm of Dubai, exploring the mysterious Mayan underworld in Central America followed by a dive into the 2nd largest Barrier Reef in the world in Belize, or perhaps a restful retreat to a luxury beach resort to simply lay back with a cocktail and soak up the sun or maybe just snatching a few days R&R on a City Break – I will help you find the perfect destination. There is nothing too big or too small that I can’t help you with, and I will endeavour to create a holiday that delivers lasting lifelong memories you will cherish forever.Rest assured that with my industry expertise and my own extensive travel experiences and advice, I will be available at the end of the phone to discuss your desires and provide support and advice from the planning stage all the way through your trip to your arrival home along with the support of our 24/7 Duty Office should you need us when you are overseas.Additionally and most importantly, everything you book is 100% financially protected against supplier failure either by ATOL or the unique Travel Counsellors Trust, giving you absolute piece of mind.I look forward to speaking to you soon, Caroline.

    It's Nice To Meet You Hello! I’m John. I have been a Travel Counsellor for over 5 years now. In that time, I have built a wealth of knowledge and experience about the travel industry that I use daily to help my customers. I love holidays and get a real sense of satisfaction at providing exceptional trips for my customers. WHY USE ME? My customers return to me because I really care about both the customer and customer service. I’m very easy to talk to and discuss ideas with. I pride myself on going above and beyond with every booking, taking the service to the next level. It’s the little things that count; checking you in online, the extra checks to make sure everything is in place for your arrival and that all special requests have been fulfilled and seeing what I can provide for you over and above and beyond your booking. Your holiday is not just another transaction; I am available 24/7 if you need me to sort out any query or request before, during or after travel. WHY TRAVEL COUNSELLORS? With the backing of Travel Counsellors, you are assured of a wider choice of holidays. I am not bound to any operators and I do not have targets which means my only priority is you, the customer, and making sure I find you exactly the right holiday every time. And most importantly, if you book with a Travel Counsellor, all aspects of your holiday are fully protected 100% of the time. And that's guaranteed. Travel Counsellors offer the best financial protection in the industry and it is offered free of charge to all our customers. WHAT HOLIDAYS DO I LIKE? I am asked to book all sorts of holidays and trips, but I am building a reputation for bespoke travel. This goes above and beyond the usual holidays and involves searching out solutions to personally create the right itineraries, travel and accommodation for those wanting to do something a bit different. I love an adventure; over the years I have organised my own wildlife expeditions including seeing the “Big Five” in Kenya, South Africa and Botswana as well as Black Bears in the Canadian Rockies, Orangutans in Borneo and Pandas in China. Still to do are tigers in India and Black Gorillas in Rwanda. I’ll keep you posted… So, if you like the idea of having one dedicated person manage the whole of your booking with the care and attention it deserves, I’d love to hear from you.

    01629 888950 Derbyshire

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

    Soozie Wilson

    01372 240 056 Surrey

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

    Hello, I’m Sarah Stevenson, your personal Travel Counsellor. My journey in travel began in the early 2000s when I lived and worked in beautiful Mallorca. Fresh from completing my degree in Spanish and Catalan, I found myself immersed in resort operations—supporting customers, solving problems, and ensuring everyone enjoyed the holiday they’d worked so hard for. That early experience shaped my belief that great travel starts with great service. Travel later took me into education, where I taught HNC and HND Travel & Tourism before qualifying as a Primary teacher. Teaching global citizenship and learning for sustainability allowed me to bring the wider world into the classroom—something I’ve always been passionate about. Now, I’ve come full circle, returning to the travel industry where my love for exploring different countries, cultures, food, and people truly belongs. I want to share that passion and help others fill their own lives with unforgettable experiences. Trust and genuine relationships are at the heart of how I work. I take the time to get to know my customers because I care—about your wellbeing, your expectations, and creating memories that will last a lifetime. Whether you’re looking for a chic city break, a blissful beach escape, an all inclusive, a ski adventure, a luxury cruise, or long haul exploration, I’m here to design a trip that feels just right for you. I’ve been fortunate to travel extensively—from most of mainland Europe to Iceland, Morocco, Egypt, the UAE, Singapore, Australia, New Zealand, Chile, Argentina, Brazil, the Caribbean, the USA, Canada and more. The UAE is my favourite sunshine boost getaway, and Switzerland holds a special place in my heart for its mountain air and snow sports (and my sister lives there too). With the financial protection and personal support of Travel Counsellors—plus tools like the myTC app and our 24/7 Duty Office—you’ll always have peace of mind.

    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.

    Hi, I'm Grant - welcome to my webpage!I have 25 years' experience working within the travel industry, working for a well known UK travel brand. I started my career in Kensington, London, before relocating to the Nottingham area nearly 15 years ago. I have worked particularly in the field of First and Business Class travel, but am well versed in arranging all types of travel arrangements, individually building holidays for clients to all corners of the globe.My passion for travel has always been there from a young age, when my uncle who worked in the airline industry used to tell us tales of his travels around the world... his adventures struck a chord with me that never left. I set of on a journey around the world in 1999 which was to last nearly two years, and included over 50 countries with countless experiences - from snowmobiling in Norway, watching golden eagles swoop into Lake Dal in Kashmir, India at sunset, then sitting in Olympic Stadium during the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games.I have experienced so many different types of holiday, including several cruises, group tours, individual touring, motorhome holidays, beach holidays, which I think gives me a great insight into the holidays my clients are planning. My service includes visa advice for the countries you plan to visit, along with information on immunisations.My mission is to constantly exceed the expectations of my clients, be it arranging a meal on a mountaintop in Oman, or a special anniversary dinner at an underwater restaurant in the Maldives - nothing is too much trouble.I live in Castle Donington, Derbyshire, with my wife (who I met in Fiji 25 years ago during my travels...) and two children aged 15 and 13 years. My kids also now have the travel bug - in 2014 we took them to Australia for a month, where they had a magical time, getting around on planes, trains, boats, bikes... and even a helicopter on the Great Barrier Reef.So, whether you are looking for a short break to one the great European capitals, a cruise in the Caribbean, a trip on the Orient Express, relaxing on a beach in Mauritius, or the trip of a lifetime around Australia, please get in touch.I look forward to hearing from you - feel free to contact me during office hours or in the evening, at a time that suits you.

    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!
