Memorable long haul holiday destinations include Australia, the Caribbean and Dubai. Over recent years I have also enjoyed some European city breaks and have taken in some of the breathtaking sites in Paris, Rome, Barcelona, Vienna and Amsterdam.

Hi, my name is Julie. I am based in Bingley, West Yorkshire. With over 30 years experience in the travel industry, I am part of a network of over 1800 travel consultants. I joined Travel Counsellors as I wanted to concentrate on giving my customers the highest possible levels of personal service and independent travel advice. We give you the opportunity of selecting your holiday from the comfort of your own home, coupled with a degree of expertise you will not find elsewhere. Travel Counsellors is one of the largest independent travel agencies in the UK. As your own professional Travel Counsellor I can use our award winning technology and my personal expertise to tailor make exactly the right holiday to suit your needs. Rather than selling you a standard tour operator package, I can quickly search through hundreds of different flight, accommodation and transfer alternatives to find something that suits your needs exactly. Quite often this means I can build you a bespoke holiday at a cheaper price than the standard holiday package you might get elsewhere. So whether you just need a flight to Barcelona or a last minute holiday to Florida I can help and of course I can help with any other travel arrangements you may have, including holiday car hire and holiday insurance. My aim is to build long term partnerships with all my clients based on trust, understanding and the honesty of independent advice and I will offer you the best value available from a wider range of operators than any high street agency can offer. I can provide you with any details you require quickly by email or telephone, I work flexible hours so can be contacted when you need me. My business is based purely on providing my customers with the highest possible levels of personal service and I would be delighted to assist you with your holiday plans.I hope to hear from you soon.

For those that don’t know…travel is simply in my DNA. I also happen to know an awful lot about it having spent almost 15 years working for a range of major travel companies, including 10 years at Tripadvisor. A particular highlight was launching Travalyst, Prince Harry’s ground-breaking sustainable travel initiative.Helping clients find their dream trip and making memories that last a lifetime is far more than just my job – it’s my passion. I’m also proud to be part of Travel Counsellors - a world leading, independent travel company which provides customers with 100% financial protection.

Attention to detail is critical; sometimes it’s the small things that can make the difference between a good holiday and an exceptional one. Yes, the last few years have been tough for travel, but the Covid crisis has also demonstrated how important it is to have a trusted expert to help you navigate the ever-changing travel landscape, decode the latest requirements and ultimately provide the reassurance and peace of mind you deserve.I have been at the coalface of Covid travel restrictions and government updates since the start of the pandemic, living and breathing every traffic light regime change, complex testing rule and country entry requirement. It might seem daunting, but I’ll be with you every step of the way and I’m right here at the end of the phone 24/7.It’s almost impossible to name my favourite travel destination as there are so many contenders, but Italy’s Amalfi Coast is somewhere I always return to. As an avid foodie it’s probably easy to work out why. Food and wine typically play a leading role in my own travel choices!I also have two primary school aged children and firmly believe that incredible holidays shouldn’t stop just because you have little ones. There are many fabulous family-friendly destinations I can show you where parents and children will come away with precious memories. The luxury Greek resorts of Sani and Ikos are personal favourites of mine.So, if you’re looking (or just dreaming) about your next escape, let me take the research, planning and worry off your hands. Perhaps it’s a luxury tropical holiday, a shopping trip to New York, a special occasion large family getaway, or a spectacular safari. Or maybe you’ve always fancied skiing or a cruise but just don’t know where to start. Whatever type of trip you’re looking for let’s have a chat and get you one step closer to that dream holiday.

From discovering hidden corners of the world to experiencing moments you’ll never forget, every journey is an opportunity to see, feel, and experience something extraordinary.I’ve been lucky enough to explore some incredible destinations. I’ve watched the northern lights dance across the skies of Lapland, enjoyed reindeer rides and husky sleds through snowy forests, and met Santa in his magical hometown—a truly unforgettable experience for all ages. I’ve felt the wonder of Disney, proving you’re never too old to believe in magic. I’ve backpacked Thailand, from bustling cities and ancient temples to lush jungles and serene beaches, soaking up its vibrant culture and energy. And I’ve explored Europe’s stunning coastlines, charming villages, and iconic cities rich in history, culture, and cuisine.These adventures inspired me to help others create their own amazing journeys—without the stress.

Hei, Thanks for taking time out to let me outline my and my partner's experience.I learnt my trade working for and with, amongst others, Colin Murison Small who more or less invented the alpine ski 'chalet girl’, Colin Trigger a one time Chairman of ABTA & ATOL, and the legendary Vladimir Raitz who held the country’s first ATOL when in 1949 he sent 21 people to Corsica for £35 a head!! I’ve watched the sun rise over Table Mountain, sink beneath the horizon in the Aegean and stay above it all night in the Svalbard Archipelago. I’ve slept in a mountain hut on the edge of an Icelandic glacier and a staffed villa on a coconut plantation in the Dominican Republic. I've organised family holidays, culture tours, a product launch on an Icelandic glacier, weddings in the sun and snow, sales incentive meetings and more. My partner Anna ( Hyndman Lahna) spent 3 decades working in tour operation, retail travel, repatriation and for Singapore Airlines & South African Airways. What she doesn’t know about airline ticketing isn’t worth knowing. She has equally eclectic experiences to mine having white water rafted on the Zambezi River, trekked by camel across the Gobi desert, flip flopped over the Piranha River Bridge into Paraguay, and trained elves for Father Christmas in Lapland.Together we fuse our collective experience (and experiences) with Travel Counsellors' state of the art technology to plan, polish and perfect your holiday the way you want it to be. To see to it that everything works flawlessly for you from beginning to end. 'With us its Personal' is more than the company strap line its how we work so you get the travel arrangements you want. And if things go wrong we've dealt with disruptions caused by everything from snow storms to volcanic eruptions.Our offices are wherever we are 24/7 so both Anna and I are always just a phone call , Whats App message , e-mail or text away so get in touch by whichever method suits you and let us show you what 'With us its Personal' can mean for you.Travel Counsellors is a 650m turonover company with a unique personalised business model, 24/7 availablity and a Trust Fund 100% guaranteeing your money's safe in all circumstances.

Hi, thank you for taking the time to visit my web page. My name is Julie Welfare and I am your Travel Counsellor based in Walton On Thames. I have been in the travel industry for over 30 years.

I have been lucky enough to visit many exciting destinations around the world; the USA, Mexico, the Caribbean islands, Hong Kong, Singapore, Bali, Thailand, Malaysia, Japan, China, India, Sri Lanka, Mauritius, Dubai, the Maldives, South Africa, Botswana, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Australia, New Zealand and the South Pacific, as well as many destinations a little closer to home such as Iceland, the Azores and many of the popular skiing and summer sun destinations in Europe.Just a few of my treasured memories include riding camels towards a vibrant sunset at Ayers Rock, swimming in the jade-coloured ocean off Western Australia with wild dolphins swooping below us, marvelling at the view from the top of Sydney Harbour Bridge with a majestic cruise ship, blindingly white in the sunshine, gliding beneath the ironwork below, and feeling the surge of adrenalin as I launched myself off the original bungy bridge in New Zealand accompanied by the blare of rock music - the lyrics still make me smile and my heart race!One of my favourite holidays was to Africa where the highlights of my trip included a thrilling microlight flight over the magnificent Victoria Falls, almost being upturned out of a tiny boat by a hippo in the Okavango Delta and tracking a lioness on foot.I can help you with your dream holiday whether it is your Honeymoon, a holiday to celebrate a special occasion, or a once-in-a-lifetime round the world trip.

It’s a collaborative journey: we shape each trip together until it’s just right, and I take care of everything else, right down to the finest details.Before launching my own luxury travel business, I worked with British Airways in Sales, Marketing, and Commercial roles, including time on the Concorde Brand Management team – a personal highlight was landing in the cockpit of Concorde into JFK!Today, I bring that same passion, insight, and precision to every journey I create. If you're looking for a trusted travel partner to support your adventures with care, creativity, and world-class connections – I’d love to chat.Let’s create something truly special together.

I love my job. Why? How many people can say that they sell dreams? That they sell the world?Being an independent travel advisor franchisee, but working with a multi award winning global company, I provide a unique travel service, using award-winning technology to tailor make travel plans, both leisure and corporate. From UK breaks to around-the-world personalised itineraries, from honeymoons, weddings and package holidays, to school, skiing and golfing trips: I book them all. All tailor made to suit your exact requirements.I have an extensive knowledge of the travel industry but specialise in both personalised itineraries, as well as accessible travel. I am a firm believer that everybody, irrespective of ability/disability, should have equal access to the joys of travel. I am also a nominated South Africa and Vancouver Specialist.But how am I different? Unlike many high street travel agents, I am completely independent and have links to 1000s of airlines, cruise lines and hotels globally, all at the click of a button. Because we have hundreds of directly contracted hotels globally, we are therefore very competitive. My doors don’t close at 5.30. I am available to talk through your travel plans at times to suit you, whether that be weekends or outside of normal office working hours. No anonymous, uncaring (and expensive) call centres; just me from beginning to end.I take care of every part of your booking, from all pre-travel documentation, administering your APIs, liaising with the hotels and cruise ships directly, prior to your arrival to ensure everything is in tip-top condition for you. I take care of all medical assistance needs and requests; I hand deliver tickets to your door and a few little extras too. (However, I draw the line at packing your suitcase; and yes, I have been asked that question a few times!) Most importantly, I am available 24/7 whilst you are away in resort, should any unforeseen eventualities crop up. You will have a direct dial button to me, via our mobile app on your phone. Tell me again how you book your travel arrangements? Once you’ve experienced Travel Counsellors, you will really wonder why you hadn’t done it sooner. Bon voyage!

I understand the importance of wonderful holidays with loved ones. Those special moments—exploring new places, sharing experiences, and creating lasting memories. But I also know how much time and effort it takes to plan the perfect trip. Researching destinations, comparing options and making the booking is time consuming. That’s where I come in. I can give you that time back and maybe even a little bit more. Having access to a vast network of travel knowledge and resources, I can bring your ideas to life and take any stress out of planning. As your Travel Counsellor, I’ll take the time to get to know you and your travel companions, so I can design a bespoke, tailor-made itinerary that reflects exactly what you’re looking for. From family adventures and romantic escapes to once-in-a-life time journeys, I’ll ensure every detail is carefully thought through and maybe come up with some ideas you’ve never even thought of! My support doesn’t end once your holiday is booked. I’ll be on hand before, during, and after your trip to make sure everything goes smoothly, giving you complete peace of mind. Whether it’s handling unexpected changes or simply offering reassurance, you can count on me to be there when you need me. In addition, I am backed by ATOL and the Travel Counsellor’s Trust so you also have 100%, no ifs no buts, financial protection. As a Mum of 3 I understand not everything can fit neatly into a 9-5 day. I can make myself available at times that suit you—during the day, in the evening, or at weekends. We can chat over the phone, or if you’d prefer, meet for a coffee to bring your travel ideas to life. So, what are you waiting for? Get in touch today and let’s start planning your next fabulous getaway.

Whilst currently London based, I divide my time between visiting friends in Yorkshire and family in Bournemouth. However, from many years of leading tours and living abroad I have clients from all across the UK and further afield, many who have travelled with me and become great friends.Thirty years ago I started working in Greece in summer, skiing in Austria in winter, then progressed to guiding tours to North America, Asia, the Indian sub-continent, the Middle East as well as Central Europe and Italy from my base of almost 15 years close to Salzburg in Austria. Until becoming a Travel Counsellor I spent over ten years as Head of Product, at niche tour operators, creating tours worldwide including tours for music and opera fans, single travellers and specialist religious pilgrimages.When asked where my favourite place I have travelled to is, that changes often as I recall many experiences and each outshines the other. When you are ready to make plans or want inspiration I will happily enthuse and bring iconic sights and descriptions of scenery to a table of ideas and add those special hidden extras and touches that you won't always find in travelogues.My belief is that a holiday or cultural experience is personal and means something different to us all. We replenish and revitalise our body, soul and mind, immerse ourselves in fascinating foreign cultures, absorb the surroundings and enrich our lives spiritually. The experiences and memories travel gives us have immeasurable value that no material possessions can offer.I'll work with you to find the perfect holiday for you. We can arrange a call, video call or a friendly chat over coffee (or something a little stronger!) to get to know one another. I believe a face-to-face meeting helps gauge your reaction to ideas and suggestions so much better.Let's spend time discussing what you and your companions want from your travels; your likes, hobbies, bucket list and any previous travel stories you wish to share. Then, armed with that understanding, utilising my knowledge from more than 30 years’ experience working in the travel industry, I will work to find or create that holiday, cruise, travel or cultural experience that is just right for you. Whether it be a bespoke specially created itinerary or an off the shelf package holiday, time away is precious and needs thought. As an independent personal Travel Counsellor, I am not tied to any one company or ‘preferred partners’ and have the freedom to select airlines, hotels, cruises, sights and attractions based on personal experience, previous guest and client enjoyment. All backed with full financial protection with ATOL or the Travel Counsellors Trust, giving you peace of mind. It is the best in the industry.As your personal Travel Counsellor I'll ensure you have all information you require leading up to your departure, with passport, visa and health information including any necessary updates and follow your journey until you return home ensuring you are never left ‘high and dry’ should anything unexpected occur. All this is backed by our Travel Counsellors support team who are available 24/7. Having witnessed how other tour operators or travel agents fall short in serving their guests, this award-winning support is something I am extremely proud of.Call me or email me and let's get your journey started!

It's Nice to Meet YouHi, I am Katy and have recently set up my own franchise with Travel Counsellors based in Tunbridge Wells.Having the freedom to travel as an unaccompanied minor to California - sparked a lifelong love for adventure and the thrill of flying. I started my career working with TUI and Simply Ski, gaining first-hand experience in ski resorts, and crafting unforgettable holiday experiences. Later, I ran my own travel business, helping clients turn their travel dreams into reality.After taking a career break to focus on raising my two boys, my travel style evolved to embrace family-friendly holidays. Our adventures took us across the Caribbean- Trinidad, Tobago, Jamacia, and St Lucia - thanks to family work commitments. We then relocated to Dubai, where travel became even more enticing, opening doors to explore South Africa, Thailand, India, Sri Lanka, Kerala, The Maldives, and Mauritius, Croatia amongst many others.Now, I am thrilled to return to what I love most, creating tailor-made travel experiences as part of the Travel Counsellors team. The depth of care and attention given from researching, processing and delivering your quotes is what I love. If you have any questions during your holiday experience I am here to help. Whether you are dreaming of a relaxing luxury beach escape, a cultural city break, or a once-in-a-lifetime global adventure. I bring an individualised touch and a wealth of global insight. I am here to guide you every step of the way in planning your perfect holiday, offering a bespoke service tailored to your interests, needs, and budget.

Imagine being no more than 2 feet away from a pride of lions, including 5 frolicking cubs, at Ngorongoro Crater in Tanzania as we quietly watched from the safety of our vehicle or a kill in South Africa? The list is endless and YES… I can take you there. You want to know the person you are booking your travel with, has all the right tools at their fingertips to act swiftly for their clients - yes that is me your personal Travel Counsellor !The travel industry has had some very challenging times and I have been there for my clients throughout their travel affected by the ash cloud, the pandemic, 9/11, the tsunami, tour operator and airline collapses, in fact I would not be a multi award winning travel expert if had not been there for my clients every step of the way – you should never be abandoned if something goes wrong.

I love to personally communicate with my clients on a friendly, unbiased one to one basis and most importantly listen to what you are wanting and ask the right questions !I look forward to speaking to you soon...

My favourite memories include camping out in the wilderness of the Australian Outback, being awestruck at the vastness of the Grand Canyon, drinking in rooftop bars in Ho Chi Minh City, perfecting my pose in front of the Taj Mahal, living a life of luxury in an over-water villa in the Maldives and most recently watching my young daughter enjoy the warm Mediterranean Sea in Andalucia.

From Marcel Proust – ‘The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking landscapes, but in having new eyes’(let me be your planning eyes!)I live in a village in West Sussex called West Chiltington located approximately 30minutes from Gatwick and the coast of Brighton. I have lived here in the village for over 30years and just love country life.I originally hail from New Zealand which is where I had the best travel education facilities afforded to me. I started from the ground (in 1979 – just a baby) as just an office assistant in a VFR travel agency dealing mainly with the Dutch and Belgian expats. I learnt most of my formative trade there and quickly moved up the ranks to consultant and tour guide. I became a member of the New Zealand Institute of Travel which enabled me to expand my knowledge.I started travelling at the age of 16 with my sisters and we were lucky to be able to travel to Europe and some of the Pacific Islands. From there my itchy feet started. In 1986 I moved to Holland (where my Dad is from). In November 1986 I joined British Airways and worked for them in reservations and sales at Heathrow and Gatwick for 17years. I was fortunate to travel a great deal to all four continents (more than once) and forged some lasting life long friendships and experiences. I did all the required exams in sales, marketing, ticketing and operations. I won most sales prizes every month for highest productivity and an Award For Excellence.I left BA to work in a Travel Agency specialising in Cuba and the Caribbean where I was a Manager. I gained invaluable experience and made very useful contacts (who still book with me to this day). I did a two year stint with Qatar Airways at their Heathrow ticket desk and I then set up on my own, and so here we are. I love everything Caribbean and Latino and have extensive and personal knowledge of this region , especially Cuba, Jamaica and Grenada, but I am not limited to these areas and can sell any type of dream. Everything I sell is 100% financially protected and completely impartial, and tailormade to you.I am contactable 24 hours a day and you only deal with me.Contact me and let me unlock your dreams – ‘One’s destination is never a place but a new way of seeing things’(Henry Miller)

My name is Emma and I am a friendly, dedicated Travel Counsellor based in South London. On completion of my university degree I decided to set off on an adventure and explore the world solo, before moving to London to begin my professional journey in travel. Fast forward 10 years and I’ve built myself a successful and fulfilling career in the travel industry. I am so grateful for the opportunities this line of work has given me, and that my expertise has enhanced other people’s travel experiences; It is incredible that I’ve been able to form a profession from what I love doing most in the world. My career thus far has had numerous highlights, including earning my spot on tons of incentive trips all over the world, and winning multiple performance based awards. Having worked in various roles, including management, I have gained insight into the process, product and customer service aspects of the industry. I definitely attribute my success to my underlying passion for travel and learning, but also my love of talking to people and forming relationships - many of my customers feel like friends and being sent holidays snaps from their trips never fails to make me smile.I’ve personally travelled to 47 countries across 6 continents (just Antarctica to get to!) and have specialised in Asia, North & Latin America, the Middle East and Africa, but feel confident that I can tailor the perfect trip in any destination worldwide. I have experience in booking a wide variety of customers, from corporate clients to backpackers, honeymooners to family holidays, and city breaks to long awaited trips of a lifetime. Speaking of corporate clients, I have numerous business accounts within the Media space, assisting with travel for TV and production purposes. I have experience in dealing with VIP/high profile individuals/Influencers and organising large groups; projects so far include Searching for Mexico with Eva Longoria, TOWIE’s season in the Caribbean, and multiple docuseries.As a Travel Counsellor I can’t wait to assist you in all your travel needs (flights, transfers, accommodations, cruises, tours, car hire) whatever they may be. I can be available outside of working hours so as to fit in with your schedules, and am also always happy to meet in person and holiday plan over a coffee (on me) if you’d prefer this to phone/email. I am so excited to hear from yourselves, your families and friends, and am looking forward to creating itineraries that will surpass your expectations and keep our working relationship going for years to come.

Welcome everyone. I’m Deborah and I live in South Northants close to Milton Keynes along with my husband Steve and son Sebastian.My interest in travel was sparked at the age of 12 by a school project about ancient Egypt. I was fascinated and promised myself that I would one day see this mysterious place for myself and that I would definitely have a career in travel. I have done both and have had the most amazing time working in the travel retail sector as a travel consultant and a store manager and I have won various awards both individually and as part of the teams I have been fortunate to work with over the years. Consequently I have had 40 years of holidays and work trips (all in the line of duty) and therefore have a wealth of knowledge of this wonderful world which I love to share with my customers.I have enjoyed everywhere I have visited but my favourite is Italy so much so that we have bought a little renovation project down in Puglia.

Hi and welcome to my Travel Counsellors webpage.I have over 30 years of experience in the travel industry, in a variety of roles from airline reservations, airport ticket desk, leisure and most recently (for the last 12 years) business travel - both corporate (on the Morgan Stanley Roadshows team) and in entertainment (on EMI and Universal music accounts). I have gained a wealth of on the job experience over the years working in different areas of the industry, but I have also gained a great deal from my own personal travel experiences from walking the Great Wall of China, Kenyan safaris, swimming with turtles in Barbados, trekking the rainforest in St Lucia and sampling the delights of the wine route in Capetown - to name but a few! One thing that has remained consistent throughout is my passion for customer service. I will always go the extra mile for my customers and I am always available at the end of the phone day or night.I can discuss your trip at a time convenient for you (including evenings and weekends) so that you will receive a truly personal experience.With the help of Travel Counsellors award winning technology I am able to uniquely package holidays at competitive rates searching from over 400 approved suppliers. This means you get the best deal while saving you the time and hassle of various internet searches.I can also handle all your business travel requirements from flights and hotels to car hire and trains. I am quite used to travellers whose plans change constantly, even en-route (after my time on the roadshow desk) and also very familiar with handling very specific requests (after looking after arrangements for famous artists).Whatever your requirements just let me know and I will do my utmost to help make your trip everything you want it to be and hopefully more!

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.

Hello, thank you for taking the time to view my webpage.I fell into travel as a profession accidently as it happens. In what was supposed to be a stopgap between a career switch, I found a position in a busy travel agency reservations department. That was 26 years ago. It turned out that was exactly what I loved to do. During those years dealing with customer requests & enquiries, one thing stood out to me, above & beyond everything else, what is most important; I hear you, the customer.Working collaboratively with the independent network of Travel Counsellors, I offer my own brand of impeccable personal service whilst leaning-into their reservoir of travel products. This enables me to select without favour to any suppliers, therein never be required to compromise on what is best for you. I have access to trade-level negotiated airline, hotel, transfer, tours, private jets, helicopter transfers; access to everything & anything travel related. I vet all products meticulously on your behalf so that all offerings meet your exact requirements & expectations.In me, you have your own one-to-one personal travel assistant and fully ATOL licensed bespoke tour operator. I do the heavy lifting, all the stuff that slows down your life:- searching, speaking to airlines, speaking to hotels/villas, checking terms & conditions, making bookings, making special requests. I offer guidance on country-specific border restrictions & regulations so that you can travel seamlessly.All payments are completely protected by Travel Counsellors' own unique trust-fund arrangement within Lloyds Banking Group whereby all monies paid are held & ring-fenced, so your travel plans & payments are fully secure.I very much look forward to looking after you.

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

Hi! I’m Veronique and I am an Independent travel advisor based in Thurrock, Essex. I offer a unique tailor made travel service, using award-winning technology to create your dream holiday including: *Beach holidays * skiing holidays * Tailor Made Itineraries * Weddings & Honeymoons * Luxury Escapes * Cruises * City Breaks * Adventure Holidays * multi-centre holidays * Disney * Lapland *About me.. I have always been interested in learning about other cultures and languages, and this is how my love of travel started and developed. Originally from Belgium, I have now been living in the UK for over 20 years with my husband who I married in beautiful Mauritius. We have 3 children, one of whom has a severe nut allergy and therefore I am understanding and mindful of additional needs or adjustments you or members of your party may require.As a family, we are keen travellers and love discovering new places which led me to plan many of our bespoke holidays over the years. One of our most unforgettable memories was our Iceland trip due to the wide range of experiences which met all our individual needs including a puffin encounter, glacier hiking, geothermal bread baking, zip lining, walking inside a volcano and relaxing in the Blue Lagoon. Some of my travel highlights are: hiking through the Canyons in Southwest USA including Zion and Bryce national parks, husky sledding in Lapland, taking a boat trip on the Glacier lagoon in Iceland, snorkelling amongst turtles and nursing sharks in the Maldives, watching the fireworks in Euro Disney, swimming with the dolphins in Florida, feeding elephants and sleeping on floating tents in Thailand, enjoying a seaweed bath in South of Ireland, water rambling in Gorges du Verdon in South of France, learning to ski in Austria and Switzerland, zip lining in Snowdonia in Wales, driving through Glencoe in Scotland, scuba diving in Corsica, exploring Northern Italy including lake Garda, the Dolomites & Venice, sunrise hot air balloon experience over the desert, and finally saying “I do” on the beach in Mauritius.What I can offer you… As a travel counsellor, my mission is to give you a highly personal travel service build on trust, care and honesty. I am committed to ensure that your holiday is a memorable and meaningful experience by getting to know you personally, making sure that your trip is tailored to you own personal needs and preferences and taken care of for you from start to finish. Working from home means that I am also available at a time to suit you. As I am an independent consultant, I give completely impartial advice and a personal service that you won’t get from booking via the internet . In addition to this, your bookings are 100% financially protected by the Travel Counsellors’ Trust and are ATOL protected to give you complete peace of mind.Remember, as Travel counsellors… “we take care of everything… from travelling the world to being the centre of ours from far and wide to going above and beyond from relaxing your mind to theirs entertained from planning the finest holiday to looking after the finer details from finding the big five to planning your big surprise!”I always manage my clients’ bookings with the same care, attention to detail and passion as if it were my own holiday. If you would like any further information, or an informal chat about your travel plans, now, or at any time, please contact me by phone or email.

I’m Karen and I’m an adopted northerner living in Sale, Manchester. I’m passionate about travel and love to share my experiences (and photos) and inspire others to do the same. The joke amongst my friends and family is that ‘I am always on holiday’ (if only that was true). I’m lucky to have travelled widely over the years and have been to over 50 countries. Favourite destinations include Brazil, Mexico, Japan, Australia, Italy and Spain with Cambodia having a special place in my heart as I lived there for several months whilst volunteering.Before becoming a Travel Counsellor I worked in marketing for 25 years, for big names such as Virgin and most recently for Marketing Manchester, the tourist board promoting the city region to the world. Now it’s the other way around and I hope I can promote the world to the lovely people of Manchester (btw you don't need to live in Manchester for me to be able to help you with your travel plans). I would love to hear about your holiday ideas and what’s important and of interest to you to then enable me to create a bespoke travel itinerary. This might be a beach holiday in Europe, a short city break, a long-haul once in a lifetime trip, off the beaten track somewhere, an all-inclusive cruise and not forgetting breaks in the UK too. Flexibility and availability are important – I am available on the phone, email or to meet in person and this can be outside of ‘normal business hours’ if that suits you better. You will get great personal service from me along with the 100% financial protection of Travel Counsellors. Please get in touch to see how I can help you to plan and book your next trip. Happy holidays!
