It’s Nice To Meet You My name is Berni and I’m a Travel Counsellor based in Abbots Langley, HertfordshireI am lucky to have worked in the travel industry for 30 years now. It has been full of incredible experiences and I have met wonderful people on my journey.Travel helps us press that reset button, stepping back and switching off. However you like to travel, by Rail, Sail, Drive or Fly. Maybe you are looking for a city break, beach holiday, a small adventure tour or on an ocean or river cruise. I can help you get there. I love city breaks. Immersing myself into the why what and when of the city. A taster of its culture without needing 2 weeks of baggage – depending how you pack of course. Cities, like any other break, can be as gentle or as busy as you want them to be. They have a unique rhythm and can be a gateway to journey further. Maybe you could consider extending your stay and exploring beyond, the villages, the mountains, the coast. You choose and I can tailor make it for you. I love the Caribbean, so far I have travelled to Barbados, St Lucia and Antigua – I too have a wish list. I’ve also travelled to Australia, Canada, USA, Turkey, Italy, Greece, Portugal, Cyprus, Spain, Malta and Gozo, France, Italy, to name a few. Planning in advance offers choices but not everyone is able to do that. As your Travel Counsellor I am able to find what is available at short notice too – Passports, Visas and Vaccinations permitting. I will take the time needed and do all the planning with you, all I need is your wish list to work with.I look forward to hearing from youTravel Counsellors is an award winning Independent Travel Company which is 100% financially protected by The Travel Counsellors Financial Trust

I’m that person who can’t help but lean in whenever I overhear someone talking about their holiday plans.Travel has been my lifelong passion. I’ve solo-travelled, flash-packed, backpacked, scuba-dived (150+ dives logged), road-tripped across the USA, island-hopped through South-East Asia, toured five African countries in one trip, lived in Seychelles for four years, visited New York City more than 22 times, and even organised my own Ibiza wedding for 150 guests.

Being able to give 100% customer service to my clients and not working a mundane 9-5.30 day.I have visited 68% of the world and will continue to keep travelling. On my bucket list are Ethiopia, North Korea, Namibia, Botswana, Borneo and Falkland Islands, I had a great time in Albania when I travelled there in October!

Hi, I’m Phil and I am a Gold Travel Counsellor based in Christchurch where I live with my partner and our two beautiful girls. I joined Travel Counsellors in August 2018 and was proud to win the 'Best UK Leisure Newcomer' award in 2019 before reaching the Gold accolade for the first time in April 2022.Prior to joining Travel Counsellors, I had over 13 years of experience as a Sales Consultant and a Product Executive for an award winning travel company working out of both the London and Bournemouth offices. I have experience of putting together a multitude of different itineraries all over the world ranging from self drive holidays, private touring holidays, beach holidays and organised private or group safaris. To name just a few!My own travels have taken me to all four corners of the globe and that really helps me to offer educated, impartial advice and tailor the itinerary to suit the individual needs of my clients. A beach is not just a beach and the style of a hotel/resort can have a huge impact on your enjoyment of your holiday. I am also a sports fanatic so have a canny way of piecing a holiday around a sporting event, such as an Ashes series down under.For the last 8 years, I have also specialised in cruise which is the largest growing sector within the travel industry. With a variety of cruise lines targeting an ever wider range of guest on board, cruising really does have something for everyone now but again it is so important to take expert advice to find the cruise line for you as needless to say, with ships ranging from 150-6000 guests on board, the whole experience can be very different.My comprehensive travel service includes advice on flights, accommodation, visa information and immunisation requirements. I have access to the best offers in the industry and for comprehensive peace of mind, everything you book with me is 100% financially protected by either the Travel Counsellors Financial Trust or ATOL, it is the best financial protection in the industry.So whatever kind of trip you are looking for, whether it’s a trip of a lifetime to some exotic destination or simply just a short break to one of Europe’s finest cities, please call me!I look forward to hearing from you.

Hello, and welcome to my page. I run an independent, tailor-made travel business powered by Travel Counsellors. That means I deliver a uniquely personalised service. Every call, every customer, every booking matters to me. It is my business, after all. And you would be in good hands. I have over 20 years’ experience in a variety of roles in the travel industry, having been a tailor-made travel agent, an Australia and New Zealand specialist, an airline executive and a corporate account manager. I have lived and worked in America, Australia and New Zealand and have explored many places in Africa, Asia and Europe. I have often been asked what my favourite destination is and it is so hard to answer. I loved living in New Zealand, which is a country of such outstanding beauty. Another favourite destination is Laos, where the people were just so friendly. I love wildlife, so seeing gorillas up close in Rwanda and baby pandas in China are fond memories. While I adored the completely alien nature of my trip to Tibet, the sheer luxury of my hotel in Antigua is hard to top. Travel is my passion. I love exploring new places, learning about different cultures and enjoying new experiences. But as we have seen this past year, travel can be impacted by any number of outside issues. But this is not new to me. I have helped my customers through some tough times, such as 9/11 cancellations, Icelandic volcanic ash clouds, SARS and Ebola breakouts, airline strikes and airline collapse and now a global pandemic with COVID 19. All of these experiences have shown me the true value of using an agent that you know and one that you know you can easily get in touch with. Let me sit on hold to the airline to get your refund; let me search for new flights home when your airline call centre isn’t answering. More importantly, though, let me recommend the right holiday for you. As I work from home, I am on call 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. This means I can provide unparalleled personal service and care before, during and after your trip, offering you the high-end VIP service... without the high price! Call me today for a quote on your next trip

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!

Hello!My name is Nick, and I am a Travel Counsellor, and I am based in Andover, Hampshire. I have been in the travel industry for the last 15 years. I started working in travel in a retail location in Toronto, Canada, where I really fell in love with the industry. During this time, I have managed to travel extensively, one of my favourite places to travel is Vietnam! The buzz you get from cities like Hanoi is immense, and the relaxation that some of the beach destinations offer is so diverse - not to mention the fantastic food and amazing people!I also love a good beach holiday - just pass me a Pina Colada! If you need anything, please let me know, and I would love to help you plan your next trip!I look forward to working with you!

If you are reading this, the chances are you are contemplating booking your perfect holiday or short break very soon. So let me tell you a little about myself...My name is Kay and I live on the beautiful North Yorkshire east coast in sunny Scarborough. I have been married to my husband John for 30 years, and we have one adult son, Jay. Being brought up in my parents’ family-run hotel, I learnt at an early age the importance of customer service. This continued throughout my career in hospitality. I have worked in 5* hotels in London and Harrogate, I was an Event Manager in Sheffield and also a Business Travel Consultant with a large manufacturing company. Here, I had to source the best and most cost-effective way of travelling from A to B, booking worldwide flights, negotiating hotel rates, trains, ferries, car hire - creating itineraries to ensure busy schedules were adhered to.I have been on interesting holidays - driven across the volcanic landscape of Fuerteventura and micro climate Gran Canaria, ridden through Holland, Germany, Switzerland, Italy, France and Spain on a motorbike, dog-walked through stunning Southern Ireland, enjoyed family holidays in Egypt, Kos, Lanzarote, Croatia, Crete, Corfu, Cyprus, Mexico, Dubai and shared the ocean with great whites in stunning South Africa! I have trapezed with Club Med in Greece, skydived in Florida, cruised the Med, driven along the PCH in California, seen the Northern Lights in Norway, lazed on beautiful Barbados and Mauritian beaches, experienced a traditional Hammam in Kalkan, enjoyed the culture of Bangkok, Koh Samui and Phuket, gambled in Vegas and swum with dolphins in Walt Disneyworld, Orlando - one of my specialist areas of the world!So why book with me? Quite simply, ‘it’s personal'. I care about ensuring your holiday is perfect from start to finish - there is no charge for my expertise and I'm available at a time to suit you including evenings and weekends. Rather than selling you a standard tour operator package, I can quickly search through hundreds of different flight, accommodation and transfer alternatives to find a bespoke holiday that suits your needs exactly. I also offer you 100% financial protection through the Travel Counsellors Financial Trust - guaranteed peace of mind. Travel Counsellors is one of the largest independent travel agencies in the UK. We are the only UK travel company to have been awarded the Queen's Award for Enterprise - three times now! So, if you are interested in a luxury Maldivian escape, a short fun European city break, a skiing adventure, meeting Mickey and Minnie in Disneyworld or taking a cruise or an African safari, contacting me will only cost you the same as a local call - alternatively just text, tweet, instant chat, Facebook or email me! I look forward to speaking with you!

Hi, my name is Rachel, thank you for visiting my webpage - I look forward to helping you with your dream holiday. As an experienced travel consultant, I know how important it is to provide a personalised service and ensure that I go the extra mile to not only meet your needs but go beyond all expectations!I currently live in Dudley having moved to the area in December 2014. I am originally from Halesowen and previously lived in Netherton for 8 years. I am happily married and have three beautiful girls so family life is very active to say the least!Before becoming a Travel Counsellor in 2015, I was a travel agent for a main high street travel agency for over 14 years. Starting as a modern apprentice at 16 years old, (I always knew I wanted to work in travel) I then became a travel consultant after completing NVQ levels 2 & 3 in travel services before eventually completing my management training. In the time I have been in the travel industry, I have also completed different training courses to ensure my knowledge remains in first class and, unsurprisingly, I have travelled all over the world either on my own, with work or with my family.I regularly get asked: "What is your favourite destination?". There are so many and for so many different reasons. I love helping people plan their perfect wedding as I got married in Nissi Bay in Cyprus, so I do have a soft spot for this beautiful island and its luxurious hotels and amazing sights. My most adventurous trip though has to be when I planned an exciting and, at times, breath-taking world tour which covered parts of Asia, Australia, New Zealand and America. I have also been lucky enough to cruise down the Nile in Egypt, meet the big five on safari in Kenya, as well as take in popular destinations in Canada, the Caribbean, Dubai, Hong Kong, an throughout the Mediterranean. I have a great fondness for city breaks with my husband and girls having visited, amongst others, Dublin, Barcelona, Rome, Bruges, Lapland, Iceland as well as getting engaged under the Jet d’Eau in Geneva, one of my personal favourites Reykjavik! I regularly do exclusive group led tours with myself as your guide, So far I have taken groups to Iceland several times, Finland and Italy with many more to come.Being a Travel Counsellor allows me to make it more personal for my customers and being available at convenient times for them, offering them a service that not just anybody can. It makes booking a holiday an exciting job, not a time consuming inconvenience.I would be delighted to hear from you and help to make your dreams become reality.

I’m Adam, your local Travel Counsellor and I love what I do which is creating and booking your perfect getaways. Whether it’s an all-inclusive family sun holiday, a solo adventure or anything in between I am here for you, your friends and family.My passion for travel started early when I backpacked through India and Sri Lanka, ending my adventure with a week in the Maldives.Since that journey eighteen years ago, I find solace in all travel whether it be dining barefoot on the sands of the Caribbean, wandering cobble lanes through historic European cities or the sensory overload as I take in the bustle of everyday life in the Far East.I feel very fortunate to have been to some incredible destinations so far and if I had to name just two stand out experiences, it would be India with Argentina & Brazil as a twin-centre holiday.I immersed myself into the backpacker way of life in India. Waking each morning with a loose plan of where I was heading, finding amazing eateries on side streets all whilst taking recommendations from people I meet along the way. I’m still mesmerised by the people, the history and culture of India. My first experience of South America was venturing from Buenos Aires to Rio De Janeiro via Iguazu Falls. One word sums up my experience, WOW! From the outstanding natural beauty of Argentina to the colourful festivities of Carnival in Rio, this is a trip I’ll never forget.I know just how important seamless planning, booking and travelling abroad is. I also understand the travel landscape changes and using a trusted travel agent makes all the difference. This is where I help, from our initial meeting the focus is all about you, your ideas and what will make your holiday perfect from the get-go. I can assist with hotels, car hire, flights, ski, cruise, fly & drive & island hopping. You name it, I will make it possible bringing your dream holiday to life. You can rest assured knowing whilst you are on holidays, I am only a phone call, email or text away, no matter the time of day or night. I am here for you.Your positive experience abroad makes being your Travel Counsellor the best job in the world. Please follow me on Facebook & Instagram where you’ll find travel inspiration, updates and news with amazing offers too good to be missed.I am excited to speak with you to bring your travel dreams alive.

As a mum, I understand the realities of family travel, and I also work closely with clients who have additional needs or medical considerations. Travel should be accessible to everyone, and having the right support makes all the difference.I’ve been fortunate to explore some incredible destinations including the Maldives, Sri Lanka, Mauritius, Dubai, Singapore, Hong Kong, Australia, Mexico, Thailand, Antigua, St Lucia, Jamaica, Barbados and Grand Cayman, to name just a few.

My name is Natasha. I worked for Thomas Cook for 6 years before becoming a Travel Counsellor, giving me over 11 years experience. I have also been really lucky to have done a lot of travelling with my husband Martin too! There are now 3 of us in the Butler household. Myself and Martin, and Charlie we also have 26 cows that really do like to have their ears scratched. Martin and I have travelled most of Europe, Egypt, Tunisia, Turkey and then some longer ones like the USA, Caribbean, and Canada. So far I have two favourite destinations – they are a bit chalk and cheese though – Mexico and Florida! They both amazed me for very different reasons but the service, culture and standards were phenomenal! Mexico offers the heritage, people and beaches that seem to come from dreams. Florida was like a return to childhood, meeting the Disney characters, watching the amazing fireworks displays and chilling out in what can only be described as brilliant facilities at Disney’s onsite hotels. I don’t tend to go to the same place twice, but I would go to both of these several times! Though I still have many more places to visit, I am determined to travel the world. I am a firm believer that a holiday can solve anything, especially when you find the perfect one! I will make sure that every holiday you book will be done with the highest level of personalised service, tailored to you and your requirements. I will also be able to do this at a time that suits you over email, phone or even catching up for a coffee. I can’t wait to help you get your holiday arranged and help you make some memories. 2021: Iceland 2022: Tenerife + Tunisia 2023: Dominican Republic + Cyprus

Planning a holiday should be exciting, not stressful. That’s where I come in. With years of experience in the travel industry and access to an extensive network of over 2000 travel counsellors worldwide, I am here to make your dream trip a reality. Whether you're looking for a relaxing beach retreat, an adventurous safari, or an unforgettable city break, I have the insider knowledge to make it happen seamlessly.Traveling to exotic destinations can come with its own set of challenges and navigating travel logistics can be complex. You might be surprised by some of the details that can make or break a trip. Did you know that: In countries like Italy and France, hotel rooms often don’t include tea and coffee facilities as standard? Or that many hotels in the Hawaii charge resort fees payable upon arrival, something most people aren’t aware of when booking online? In Botswana, for example, many safari camps have private landing strips that aren’t listed on online booking sites, making it difficult to arrange flights without expert help. In Dubai, hotels often expect children to share beds with their parents unless an additional roll-away bed is requested in advance. And if you’re heading to South Africa for a safari, there are specific clothing restrictions to ensure you don’t disturb the wildlife. Long layovers can be an opportunity rather than an inconvenience—airports like Singapore Changi and Istanbul offer free city tours for transit passengers, a perk that many travellers are unaware of.These are the kinds of insights that make all the difference—and why having a travel expert by your side is invaluable.For those seeking unique experiences, I can help you discover unforgettable moments you might not find in a standard guidebook. Imagine waking up in Cappadocia and watching hot air balloons drift by from your terrace at sunrise. Or enjoying breakfast in Kenya while giraffes poke their heads through the windows to say hello. Perhaps you’d like to arrive in New York and take a seven minute helicopter transfer straight to Manhattan, buzzing past the Statue of Liberty? These are the kinds of experiences that turn a holiday into a lifelong memory.When you book with me, you’re not just getting a travel agent—you’re gaining a trusted partner who will take care of every detail. From checking you in and arranging restaurant reservations to organising private tours and ensuring you have a point of contact during your trip, I’ll be with you every step of the way. I only recommend destinations and experiences that meet my own high standards, ensuring that every trip I plan is one I would take myself. And if I haven’t experienced a destination personally, I go the extra mile to conduct thorough research, ensuring it fits your needs perfectly.My clients return time and time again, and I treat every holiday like it’s their dream come true. Whether you have a clear idea of where you want to go or are looking for inspiration, I am here to take the stress out of planning and create an experience that exceeds your expectations.Life is short and the world is wide. So, what are you waiting for? Get in touch to plan your next adventure.

Hello, I'm Katie, and I've recently taken an exciting new step to turn my passion for travel into a career as a Travel Counsellor. I grew up in the beautiful green countryside of Ireland, surrounded by perfect beaches and so much natural beauty, the kind of place that inspires love for adventure and the outdoors. Over the years, I've been lucky enough to explore parts of Europe, including France, Greece, Spain, Portugal, Hungary, Denmark and the Netherlands, and once made it across the Atlantic to New York! Each destination has given me unforgettable memories and a deeper passion for travel. Before starting this journey, I worked in retail, and later qualified as a veterinary nurse and spent many years caring for animals. Caring for people and animals has always come naturally to me, and I love bringing that same care and attention to detail into planning holidays. I'm also a proud mum of two little boys, who remind me every day how precious shared experiences and memories are. I believe travel is one of the best ways to learn about ourselves, it opens our minds, enriches our lives and helps us see the world, and ourselves, in a new light. I'm especially excited to help my clients make memories that will last a life-time, whether it's a romantic escape, a family adventure, or a once in a lifetime trip, I take pride in creating something truly special for every client. Let's make your next holiday one to remember!

Since then I have been lucky enough to explore many incredible destinations. I also love cruising, as it allows you to see multiple destinations in one journey making each day a new adventure.

Hello and thank you for visiting my webpage. My name is Sandra and I live in Stamford, a stunningly beautiful and vibrant market town in south Lincolnshire.As a Travel Counsellor I’m here to take away the stress of organising your holiday. I’ve never been a 9 to 5 person so feel free to contact me when it suits you - I’ll work with you to fully understand what you want from your trip and take care of every detail from start to finish, so that you can focus on the other important things in your life and start your holiday relaxed.Travel has been my life, from my early days working on a campsite in France, through living and working in Spain, Greece, Malta, India and Cuba to finally being UK based, travelling frequently and focusing on giving customers the best holiday ever in places as diverse as Las Vegas, Bali and Kenya, as well as the more familiar European holiday resorts. Over the years I’ve organised some fantastic bespoke getaways for myself and others including celebratory weekends in the English countryside for 20+ people, exploring the whole length of Vietnam and a once in a lifetime private tour around Namibia. It was therefore a logical step to become a Travel Counsellor and to share my knowledge and experience to help others have holidays that are just as amazing.The hardest question for me is ‘what’s my favourite destination?’ as I’ve visited over 70 countries and each has its own special charms. You can read more in my blogs but some of the most memorable moments of my travels have been micro lighting over the Victoria Falls, swimming with whale sharks in Mexico, seeing the stars in the vastness of the Kalahari and most recently taking a truly incredible and life affirming cruise in Antarctica.You can trust me to find the trip that’s right for you, whether that’s a multi generational family holiday, a luxury cruise, a romantic city break to pop the question, the ultimate honeymoon or a blow the budget round the world trip. Let me know your bucket list destinations and I’ll find the best way to realise those dreams. And if all you want is to chill on the beach then I can arrange that too.In the words of St Augustine, ‘the world is a book and those who do not travel read only a page’. Get in touch and let me plan your next travel chapter!

Whether you are seeking adventure, discovery, rejuvenation or simply somewhere special to relax with your family, I would love to help you create your own wonderful memories.Over my long and varied travel career I have seen many changes in the way that holidays are presented and bought. The internet may have enabled people to create their own trips, but the process is fraught at the best of times, and ultimately you travel without support. We have all had the irritation of unmanned email addresses and no contact numbers when seeking assistance from a human being.

I appreciate that all stages of the booking cycles are equally important, this means I’ll be with you every step of the way to ensure everything runs smoothly.

My name is Elaine Simpson: I live in Hebden Bridge, West Yorkshire with my husband, Rod Bailey, who is a retired fine art lecturer. My passion is Australia - I’ve been a Tourism Australia Aussie Specialist for many years, visiting over 20 times; plus I’m a New Zealand Kiwi specialist and an expert in Round the World journeys. Closer to home I love to sail on Star Clippers traditional sailing ships and have crossed the Med with them several times. My 40+ years travel experience started in university travel offices which gave me an unrivalled knowledge of airline and rail routes and off-the-beaten-track destinations, as many of the students and lecturers came from, or travelled to, some far-out places! In 1989 I started my own travel agency for independent travellers and was presented to HRH the Prince of Wales having won a competition for start-up businesses in the Calderdale area. Late in June 2008 I joined Travel Counsellors and closed that business down and – one of the best decisions I have made in my career. I’ve travelled widely throughout Australasia, North America, Asia, Europe, Mexico and South Africa; have specialist accreditations also for Singapore, Hong Kong, Dubai etc, so I can offer a comparable service to all regions with the extensive and highly professional support of Travel Counsellors. Despite travelling extensively, my own wish-list never gets any shorter: in the past few years I have spent most winters in Tenerife and have visited India, Morocco, Australia, Greece, Turkey, Italy, Holland, Denmark, Barbados, Mexico, Thailand, New Orleans: and I’ll go anywhere else given half a chance! When I’m not booking travel, or travelling, I love to draw and paint and many of my pictures are inspired by the people and places I have met and seen along the way. When travelling I like to get off the beaten track and try out new experiences with a combination of action and relaxation and that is the kind of trip I excel in arranging. Therefore, whatever your idea of a good time, talk to me about it and together we’ll find the perfect trip for you! There’s a place in everyone’s life for a little self-indulgence and hedonism - we all need times to chill out - whether you find it in 5-star luxury or in a simple beach hut, I’ll go that extra mile to find the perfect place for you to relax and recharge your batteries. Whatever your travel needs I’d be delighted to help and can either meet you or arrange it via email or phone- so distance is no object in more ways than one! I look forward to hearing from you.

Hello, I’m Claire, I am here to curate seamless journeys for both your leisure and business travel. I am a Scottish lady based in Belfast with a global outlook and a life long passion for travel and high end service. For you this means I do the time consuming research and booking whilst you get to relax with the reassurance that every detail has been thought through. Before joining Travel Counsellors, I built a career in international marketing, leading global teams and campaigns and hosting corporate events across the world. That experience sharpened my attention to detail and the importance of a VIP service and care — skills I now bring into creating bespoke travel for all my clients.My own personal, family and corporate travels have taken me across the globe — from Asia, Africa, Canada, the Caribbean (where my grandparents lived on St Lucia- and yes I have been a few times!), the Canaries, Mauritius, Norway (where I lived as a child), and the USA, to countless destinations across Europe, the UK and Ireland. I’ve skied in the Alps, Norway, Canada and the USA, sailed around Europe, climbed many mountains and swam in many seas. These experiences fuel my curiosity and give me a deep appreciation for the memories that travel creates.As a Travel Counsellor, I want to bring my experience and passion to others. It’s about designing journeys — whether for work or wonder — that are seamless, personal, and full of joy. With the backing of Travel Counsellors’ award-winning expertise, technology, financial protection, and global network, you can feel confident you are in safe hands.Whether you’re looking for a luxury escape, a short trip away, a family adventure, a cruise, a ski holiday, a special celebration, or a business trip handled with meticulous care, I’ll take the time to understand what matters most to you and curate a journey worth remembering — and one that inspires many more. I look forward to hearing from you and creating those moments of wonder for you.

Hi, I'm Soozie, Welcome to my webpage. I am your personal Travel Counsellor based in Bookham in Surrey where I live with my husband, son and 2 dogs Max & Dexter.I have been travelling from a young age on family holidays, then got the bug as a teenager to travel further afield to more exotic destinations such as the Far East and the Indian Ocean. I also said "I DO" in Las Vegas as we wanted to do something different, and visited the Gran Canyon which is another great experience! Favourite Destination?This one is tough as each holidays are so different but I loved the Maldives for the white sands and for the Marine life watching the Manta Rays gliding around in the water gracefully in the evening was so beautiful, and seeing baby sharks while stood at the water edge! The fish were amazing while snorkelling and beaches are stunning of course! The adventure does start on the seaplane landing on the pristine white beaches which takes your breath away..But also I think Mauritius is just as good and also one of my top sellers .. here you have the advantage of being able to hire a car and explore the island and be totally safe! Here I also sell lots of weddings. I also love the far east for culture and diversity and Thai food! So where will your favourite destination be..? I have been working in travel for over 20 years and it's always been my passion! Starting off on the High Street, until I took the plunge and worked from home, which was the best choice for me, Travel Counsellors are an award winning company, and have a unique Travel trust which means everything I book is 100% safe and my customers are covered. This is the reason I chose this company so that I have lot's of suppliers at my fingertips, I offer bespoke tailormade itineraries to a day trip to Lapland to more adventurous trips trekking in the far east or even cruising in Alaska, I also do a sporting trips too from Cycling holidays to Golf breaks & sports to the usual ski holidays.... There isn't really any holiday I can't do!Why Book Through Me ..?Not only to support a local small business but so that you don't spend tireless hours looking through the internet, most large touring holidays can't be found on the internet that I put together. Booking with me means your money is 100% financially secure, and also I am always available at the end of the phone, Wassap or email to answer questions etc, I will personally deliver tickets to you when I can if close to me, as I believe in personal service, I can arrange appointments out of normal work hours if easier for my customers too, making it more convenient for you. so rest assured your holiday is protected and your in safe hands! I have over 20 years of expertise in Travel, I use my time when not booking holidays keeping up to date with training.
