It’s Nice to Meet YouHello there! I'm Charlotte, your local travel advisor in the quaint village of Holt, nestled between Bradford-on-Avon and Melksham in Wiltshire. My passion for travel blossomed early on, from childhood getaways to exploring new places with friends. After starting my career in 2001 at a travel agency, I've since worked with luxury brands, airlines, and high-end corporate clients. Along the way, I've explored extensively - from the tropical beaches of Asia to the historic sites of Europe. A volunteering stint in India redirected me to work with animals for a few years, before the travel bug bit once more. Now, I combine my decades of industry experience with insider knowledge to design deeply personal, transformative trips for discerning travellers like you. Whether you seek a family vacation, romantic honeymoon, or an off-the-beaten-path adventure, I'm here to listen and bring your travel dreams to life. My goal is to craft unforgettable journeys that immerse you in the incredible beauty, cultures, and wonders of our world. I look forward to getting to know you and planning your next memorable trip! Let’s talk soon, Charlotte Booking with a Travel Counsellor means that your booking is 100% financially protected and you will also have our complete support when you’re on holiday. As well as myself there is a 24/7 duty office who you can contact should you need to from wherever you may be in the world. In the words of Hans Christian Andersen ‘To Travel is to Live’

My passion for travel has led me here, making a career out of something I love and I am so excited to have this opportunity. As a huge travel enthusiast, I have been lucky enough to visit some of the most amazing places in the world, and there so many more I can’t wait to see! After all they say the key to happiness is to always have a holiday booked (or at least that is what I tell my husband anyway!)

There is nothing I love more than all things travel, and I want to share that passion with my clients, making dreams come true and helping to create memories that will last a lifetime.

Whether it be a chat on the phone or to meet up for a coffee, I am there to suit you and your needs - something that is invaluable particularly in the busy world we live in!My personal touch is what really sets me apart from your typical online or high street booking avenues, and you can be sure I will take care of every little detail to give you the perfect trip. From couples trips, family holidays, sun, sea & sand, city breaks or winter getaways, long haul or short haul - whatever it is you need I can take care of it all for you!

My name is James Comrie, I have been in the travel industry since 1983, so this year I am celebrating 37 years in the travel industry. When I started in 1983 until 2003 I worked in an award winning travel agents in Dundee, Perth and Stirling, however by 2000 I realised that this great industry was changing.More and more customers were looking to arrange trips that were not always from a conventional brochure, more customers were realising how easy it was to visit family and friends in far-off destinations like Australia and New Zealand. My expertise was now required to help them in a different way, it was becoming clear to me that relationship building with clients was the way forward. I started to look for a new exciting challenge.I joined Travel Counsellors in 2003, I have just celebrated 17 successful years with this awesome company. Travel Counsellors allows me to run my own business from home but it also has the most amazing support structure in place, so much so that you never ever think you are working alone. During the last 15 years, I have been lucky to visit so many great places: Australia, India, Hong Kong, Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Oman, New York, Florida, and most countries in Europe.I arrange a lot of cruises for my clients ranging from Mediterranean to Caribbean, as well as ocean and river cruises with many well-known companies including Regent Seven Seas, Scenic River Cruises, Celebrity, Royal Caribbean, and P&O.Many of you will know me from my time in Crieff and Dunblane in Scotland, however I now live in Welton, Brough, East Riding of Yorkshire. I still travel to Scotland on a regular basis to look after my many-established clients face to face so I am also available for home or workplace visits where necessary both in Scotland and the East Riding area. When you are thinking of planning your next overseas trip, please get in touch - I am available when most travel agents are closed, you can also contact me any evening or weekend.I look forward to hearing from you to help plan your next adventure.Best Wishes.

I am honoured to be your chosen Travel Counsellor and thank you for trusting me with your dream holiday. I have a wealth of travel experience to share with you and there is nothing I love more than to talk about all things travel! I have travelled the world extensively from a young age and my love of travel has taken me to many far-flung destinations including backpacking in Australia to cruising around the Norwegian Fjords. I have been lucky in my youth to have also lived and worked in several destinations of which I have a few highlights:- Spending 2 years in Southern Egypt including exploring the Nile Delta and Cairo. One of my particular highlights was exploring the Tomb Of The Kings...I am a bit of a history buff so this felt so special and is truly to be seen to be believed. - Working alongside Santa himself in Finnish Lapland and spending my days on husky and reindeer rides, snow mobiles and seeking the Northern Lights. There's something just purely magical about seeing the Northern Lights from a frozen Arctic lake.- Working on theatrical tours that took us to stunning destinations such as the Swiss Alps and Hong Kong. Experiences such as performing at the Royal Hong Kong Yacht Club and being a 'survivor' at their 24 hour party will stay with me for life.- Exploring Tasmania from top to toe…From wine regions to hiking up mountain ranges to white water rafting it was quite the adventure! This wilderness destination is a must for your bucket list!Each destination along the way has given me a deeper understanding of the local culture, people and the many ways in which to explore. I am a huge advocate of emerging and engaging oneself into local life and I can assist you in truly doing this on your next getaway.In the past few years, I have specialised in cruise holidays, and I have been fortunate enough to travel on and explore various cruise lines and routes that I can happily help guide you to the perfect fit. I have sailed with a number of lines including Cunard, Fred Olsen, Ambassador, Royal Caribbean and my next cruise is with Celebrity where we will be exploring Malaysia, Thailand and Indonesia. Travel has always been more than just a hobby for me; it’s a way of life. I’ve built a career out of inspiring others to discover the joy and transformation that comes from exploring the world. Whether it’s your first time abroad or your fiftieth, whether it’s a Caribbean cruise or a weekend in Whitby, I love helping travellers create unforgettable getaways. When you plan your holiday with me, you’ll get far more than just a travel agent. I’ll take the time to truly get to know you, your interests, your priorities, your needs and I will tailor make your hand-picked recommendations. I’ll ensure that your holiday is entirely personalised and catered to you. Having lived and travelled extensively around the world I understand that travel is not one-size-fits all. Some of us crave tranquillity and relaxation, others want adventure and to immerse ourselves in a destination. Together, we will design a trip that reflects you and your personality that hopefully you will love. So let’s start planning your next adventure together, that’s designed around you. I look forward to hearing from you!

Hi and thanks for visiting my webpage. My name is Sean and I live in the wonderful city of Liverpool with my partner Louise and our 3 children. My journey in travel started in 1999 when I joined the industry aged just 16 as an apprentice, a year later I was fortunate to win the first of many awards in my career when I was crowned “apprentice of the year” out of 650 other candidates. That journey has now taken me to setup my own independent travel business supported by Travel Counsellors. I still get the same buzz today as I did back all them years ago when I started out in travel at hearing how much a client has enjoyed their trip and the life memories they have made. For all my clients, I’m available day and night, offering a true one-to-one personalised travel service. In addition to this, everything you book is 100% financially protected against supplier failure by either ATOL or the Travel Counsellors Trust, giving you absolute peace of mind. Above all, I pride myself on the highest quality of service and quick response to your every need. From the time of planning, to booking, to dealing with emergency situations should they arise, I will always be available to you at the end of the phone or email to ensure your experience is as stress free and enjoyable as possible. I look forward to hearing from you

I have visited Antigua, St Kitts & Nevis, The Bahamas and the Turks and Caicos Islands in the Caribbean and travelled extensively through Europe, including a visit to Santa in Lapland. I have also been able to take some ocean cruises in the Mediterranean and the Caribbean and also cruised from Iceland to Denmark. I've just recently returned from an Artic expedition cruise around Norway with Hurtigruten which was amazing! I love to do river cruises as well in Europe - though the Nile is booked for 2026! I really enjoyed the Christmas market river cruises and have just returned from a Douro sailing. I love to travel by train and Canada is high on my bucket list having visited Vancouver, Toronto and Niagara Falls I plan to visit more of this beautiful country in the future.These experiences combined with being an independent Travel Counsellor, where I have access to hundreds of different suppliers and DMCs help me to source the best options to suit your individual requirements and budget and to bring those dreams alive!

Hi everyone, Welcome to my page! My name is Gaynor, and I live in Southampton, Hampshire with my new husband, Paul !.From an early age, travel has always been a passion of mine, and whilst I started my working life in Retail, Travel was always a big part of my life - I was always the one out of my girlfriends to look for holidays, the one my parents turned to for 'where shall we go this year' advice, and then latterly the natural choice once I had a family with, 'Mum, can we go here?? ...' So imagine how lucky I felt when I was able to follow my heart, and I now have over 25 years' experience in the Travel Industry, with visits to over 60 countries and destinations! We're not meant to stay in one place, are we?....... Being able to travel and experience things beyond the 'everyday' is exciting - can be challenging - but ultimately fulfilling. We all dream of feeling the warm air on our face as soon as we step out of the plane, or that first step onto the beach feeling the sand in our toes, or the smells and tastes we associate with being on holiday and trying something for the very first time.......Which is where I can help - I can apply all my years of 'experiences' and help you fulfil yours, be it a fun-filled action-packed weekend break in that city you've always wanted to visit, a recharging break at a Spa or country retreat, that longed-for Beach or Cruise getaway, or even to tick off a 'bucket list' trip, I'm here, and I can make all those dreams of finding new places to explore, and new people and cultures to experience, become a reality. I will look after you from your initial enquiry stage to your return, every step of the way, ensuring the worry, stress and time spent trawling through endless confusing and unfriendly websites becomes a thing of the past !I'm also lucky to be part of an award-winning company that has shown how, and what it means to look after it's clients - we didn't come Top of a recent MoneySavingExpert Poll for nothing! Your money is safe with us - it's 100% financially protected in our Trust, along with ATOL Protection, and a flexible booking policy.You can also forget about long call centre queues, as you have a direct link straight through to me, 24/7, either phone, email or Social Media. I work from home, so I'm available when it suits you, so I guess you can refer to me as your very own Travel Concierge ! So, please drop a line when you're ready - I can't wait to hear from you !" A Ship In a Harbour Is Safe, But That's Not What Ships Are Made For......" John. A. Shed

Hi, I’m Laura Finlay, and I’m still pinching myself that I get to call this work! I live in Greater Manchester, am married to a wonderful husband and, fun fact, I do double duty: I’m still teaching and running my Dance Studio while also channeling my lifelong passion for travel by helping others plan theirs.My journey into travel truly took flight with Emirates as Cabin Crew, where I was whisked away to countless cities and countries. Each new airport code, every culture I experienced firsthand, and the joy of serving others inspired me; sparking both wanderlust and a commitment to extraordinary customer care.Dance has been another constant in my life. For nearly twenty years, I’ve taught and managed my own Dance School and Studio. That experience has taught me to nurture creativity, precision, and joy, and those same qualities now shape the itineraries I craft. Over time, friends and clients started coming to me for travel advice, unsolicited. They trusted me to help them choose where to go, where to stay, and how to make their travel dreams feel personal and seamless. After years of doing it for those I care about, I finally decided to follow that nudge and become a Travel Counsellor - and to continue teaching dance, too!I absolutely love creating journeys that resonate deeply. Maybe you dream of the roar of lions and wide-open skies on safari in Kruger National Park, or maybe you're craving ultimate serenity in an overwater bungalow in the Maldives, where every sunrise paints the ocean. Or, perhaps, you want to wander through smaller Spanish towns, hopping from tapas bar to boutique shop, soaking up local charm. I specialise in safari adventures, luxury escapes, and family-friendly trips that feel effortless yet extraordinary.What sets my approach apart is the blend of educator and aviator: precision meets warmth. I plan with creativity and care, founded in my teaching roots, refined by years of in-flight hospitality and customer service, and rooted in authenticity. Planning should never feel overwhelming: instead, it should be about excitement, discovery, and those “yes, this is exactly what I wanted” moments. And since I still teach and run my Studio and am an independent Travel Counsellor, I deeply understand time, balance, and creating something meaningful, whether in movement or in travel: offering flexible availability to suit your schedule whilst proudly being ATOL-protected; enabling you to travel with complete peace of mind knowing that your holiday is financially secured. So simply send me an email, DM on Instagram, or give me a call: whether you're planning a family reunion, a luxury getaway, or a wildlife adventure, I'm here every step of the way, from initial chat to landing back home with lifelong memories, I can't wait to help!

After being out of the travel industry for a while, it is a pleasure to be back in the industry I started in and fell in love with, especially as an Independent Travel Counsellor.I studied travel & tourism at the Bournemouth & Poole college, where a achieved a Diploma. After leaving college I worked for an independent travel agent in my home town of Swansea, gaining 10 years’ experience. Over my time working as a travel agent I was fortunate to see some fantastic places like the Canneries, Balearics, Greece, France, Finland, Germany to name a few but my favourites being the Maldives, Sri Lanka and Seychelles.Although I have been out of the travel industry, the passion has never left me. My wife and I love going on city breaks, our favourites are New York and Reykjavik and for our summer holidays we love going to our family home on the Costa Blanca in Spain. We either fly out or we take the ferry and drive stopping off in places on the way down through France and Spain taking different routes each time.Being a Travel Counsellor gives me the flexibility to book your perfect holiday and give you the personal experience you won’t find with an online provider with full financial backing. Whatever your requirements weather it’ll be a London hotel or a Round the World trip I can organise it all, even visa’s and transfers.Other than travel I love my rugby, I have organised group bookings to the 6 nations games. I also booked my own tailor made trip to New Zealand for the 2011 rugby world cup and for the British & Irish Lions tour in 2017, I took my youngest son with me in 2017, he loved it.So stick a pin in a map, give me a call and see where I can take you. “I want to go to places I’ve never been before”

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 Judith and I live in the beautiful village of Elmton with my partner Roy and our West Highland terriers Daisy and Rosie.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 love of travel started 27 years ago when living in Greece. I lived around the Greek islands, mainly Corfu, Kos, Crete and Rhodes. Looking after holidaymakers on their special holidays helped me to realise how important your well deserved break away is, and when returning to the UK my desire was to continue to help my customers find the perfect holiday. I worked in a high street agency for a while but quickly began to realise that customers needed an agent who could offer any holiday, anywhere in the world, at anytime of the day especially in the evening after work, an independent agent they could get to know and trust with their travel plans. I became a personal Travel Counsellor 19 years ago and have not looked back.I now create holidays anywhere in the world. I believe that your holiday should be unforgettable. Everything will be tailored to suit you. The personal contact I have with you through the booking process makes sure we miss nothing. It’s like having a friend book your holiday for you. All you need to provide is the idea, even if it is vague!I still get excited about all my customers’ travel plans, whether it be a luxury/bespoke tailor-made holiday, long haul destination, package trip, cruise or an adventure tour.As your Personal Travel Counsellor you will find that I’m refreshingly different from most other travel agents as I work from home, so I am available as times that suit you.Planning a holiday really is this easy. I am also available 24/7 whilst you are away on holiday and with the myTC app you have access to all your travel documents and my contact details in one place – great ways to give you that all important peace of mind.Please do not hesitate to call me and I will help you with your holiday requirements, or if you just need some friendly advice on your travel plans. Get to know me and you’ll love the difference I make when planning your perfect holiday.

A little about me - I was bitten with the travel bug from four years old when my parents took me on my first skiing holiday to the Austrian Alps. Since then, I have travelled the world for work, sport and pleasure – from backpacking around the world during my University gap year, to competing internationally for the GB Team in water-skiing and wakeboarding, to living and working in Dubai and the Middle East, to luxury resort holidays in long-haul destinations such as Bora Bora, Hawaii and Mauritius. I have personally travelled to 43 countries so far, and in 2023 I will be adding the Maldives and Croatia to my tally.I can assist you with door to door travel arrangements – from your flights, transfers, and accommodations, to detailed multi-stop itineraries, cruises, day tours, car hire, golf tee times, ski lessons and many other special requests. Meanwhile, you can sit back and relax and think about what to pack in your suitcase. (I have some helpful hints for packing too!)Throughout my previous careers I have worked in Brand management and International events. I bring with me an attention to detail and a love of planning and creating the WOW factor to a given budget. I am available beyond standard office hours at a time to suit you, so please call or email me at anytime. Thank you for taking the time to visit my page and I look forward to organising your dream trip soon!Emma

I have over 17 years’ experience as a front-line sales consultant for a leading travel company. Based in Kensington, I worked in the First and Business Class department since 1997, where I managed both corporate and high-end leisure clients’ travel arrangements. This comprehensive service has included flights, accommodation, passport and visa information and relevant immunisation requirements.Over this period, I have built up a strong relationship not only with my clients but also with leading airlines and hotels around the world. I have an extensive knowledge of the aviation industry and how the seemingly complicated fare structures work. I pride myself on simplifying the most complicated itinerary, and will always go the extra mile to exceed my clients’ expectations and requirements.The most rewarding part of my job has been providing nothing less than the full package; an efficient, prompt, accurate and friendly service, no matter how demanding or urgent the request may be.I have travelled widely across the world, and have been lucky enough in my career to have visited many memorable places. Some of the highlights have included hot-air ballooning in Northern Queensland, sand boarding on the dunes in Namibia, viewing glaciers and camping in the High Arctic and crossing 9 time zones on the Trans Siberian Railway. Although beach holidays in the Caribbean and Oman never fail to recharge my batteries!I have lived in London all my life and am now a father of three young children, so my travel is less long-haul, and more UK and European. As a home-based Travel Counsellor I will always be on call and here to assist you with all your travel needs. I look forward to hearing from you and making your travel arrangements as seamless as possible.

With a lifetime spent discovering the world, I offer far more than off-the-shelf holidays and generic travel advice. I bring authentic insights, personal experience and a genuine passion for helping you uncover those “wow” moments that make every journey truly unforgettable.MY PASSION FOR TRAVEL After studying French and German at university and spending an amazing year living in the beautiful Danube Valley, I headed off to Japan for a year where I truly learnt the joy of immersing myself in a different culture. I was lucky to be in the same prefecture as the iconic Mount Fuji from whose summit I saw the most spectacular sunrise. From there, my adventures have spanned the globe from climbing Mount Kinabalu in Borneo, snorkelling on the Great Barrier Reef and trekking the Aussie Outback, exploring the stunning islands and ancient sites of Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia, standing on the Great Wall of China, sipping a Singapore Sling in the iconic Raffles Hotel, marvelling at the Taj Mahal and driving coast-to-coast across the USA. I have been fortunate to venture off the typical tourist path with work too, exploring places like South Korea, Taiwan and Zimbabwe. I also have a real passion for scenic cruising and for me, there is nowhere quite as mesmerising as the Norwegian fjords.MY EXPERTISE My background first as an export sales manager and then as a global event manager means that you benefit from years of professional planning, first class customer service and meticulous attention to detail.

This has always been the most enjoyable part of the industry for me, to really find out what a client wants and then the fun of finding it. Being able to suggest a certain restaurant, on the sea front somewhere as I had the best steak there can’t be offered by an online website so makes us stand out from the rest.I strive to provide a high touch & personal service and be dedicated to all your travel needs.

Thank you visiting my webpage. Just a little insight into my Travel Journey.... Packing our suitcases, stepping off the plane and sipping a cocktail at the beach or pool is my idea of heaven! It all began as a child (not the sipping cocktails!) when I first visited Florida and the ‘Magic’ of Disney grabbed a hold of me. It gave me my first cherished holiday memories and I have been fortunate to have collected many more since my childhood. We all love a holiday but over the years it has also become a passion of mine to find the best deals out there for myself and customers . This has resulted in trips to some fabulous countries and allowed us to stay in beautiful hotels, villas and apartments all around the world. My travels have included trips to Spain, Balearic Islands, Portugal, Greece, Turkey, Tunisia, Florida, Las Vegas, Mexico, Dubai, Singapore, Barbados, Antigua, Australia and New Zealand. I have probably forgot some along the way! I understand how important our holidays are to us and would love the opportunity to help you create lasting memories for you and your loved ones. I love nothing more than making clients happy, seeing their holiday pictures and hearing all about the amazing time they have, its the reason I came into Travel. A personal service is very important to me and I love to build relationships with customers along the way. This is the best way to give customers that dream holiday. This is truly a passion of mine and it would be a pleasure to help you find that perfect holiday for you.

If I haven't travelled to a destination I have probably taken a tourism course in that area to increase my knowledge.I have been to many Greek Islands, most of the Popular Caribbean Islands, itineraries in Thailand including Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Koh Lanta, Krabi, Khao Lak, Koh Yao Noi & Koh Samui. A few islands in the Philippines. Maldives is my favourite place of all time as I love to Scuba dive. Mauritius & Seychelles great for scuba diving too. Most of the popular city break destinations in Europe. I have taken a couple of cruises. Canada was also one of my favourite places taking in the Rockies on the Rocky Mountaineer with an itinerary including Vancouver, Vancouver Island, Banff and an Alaskan cruise,,, amazing !!! I got to visit Cape Town and do a couple of Safari's in 2022 which has always been on my bucket list and didn't disappoint. I also recently visited Malaysia in my own tailormade trip to Kuala Lumpur, Langkawi & Penang which was great.My favourite holiday was in December 2023 safari in the Serengeti, then a trip to Mafia Island where I completed my life long dream of swimming with Whale Sharks and then onto Zanzibar which is beautiful.I fit my holidays around looking after my clients and creating their dream holidays. Just ask me about a destination and hopefully I have it covered with my own experience or a course I have completed.

Which is always a bonus!Many people are still unaware that most high street agents are restricted in selling a limited number of tour operators but here at Travel Counsellors we are completely independent, and this allows me to offer you the best choices while benefiting from the buying power of being part of such a large company. I know that our lives have become busier and not everyone is free to discuss their travel arrangements during working hours therefore you will be able to contact me at a time convenient to you when most travel agencies are unavailable.

Welcome! Bienvenue! Willkommen!Living mainly in Surrey, I also spend time in Beaujolais (near Lyon) and adore the fact that both are in the beautiful countryside, yet within easy reach of wonderful cities.Travel has always been my passion. I started working in a major tour operator where, during 8 years, I learnt all about creating package holidays. Then I moved into the more demanding world of corporate events – constructing and delivering programmes on all continents with a much greater focus on outstanding service.Over the past three decades my work has earned several national and European industry awards, but more importantly, it has provided invaluable experience of the art of travel (whether by air, sea, rail or road) and knowledge of an amazing range of countries, destinations and cultures.With travel, the key is not learning how to get it right, but how to avoid getting it wrong!The most rewarding aspect of my work has always been the reactions of participants after experiencing a programme that I helped to create.Now I want to deliver similar experiences for individuals who want to avoid the hassle of high street travel shops, or endless online searching with little advice on what may or may not suit. Our sophisticated IT systems give me access to the widest imaginable range of flights, hotels, transport and sightseeing options. I can, therefore, provide you with great value, coupled with truly impartial advice.The little touches make all the differencePackages can consist of so many features, and yet I know very well that small things add more pleasure and delight than the effort involved in arranging them.Of which happy memories are made….It doesn’t need to be a complicated itinerary or far-away destination. You may want a holiday in Europe, a wedding/honeymoon package, a family gathering or simply a short break. You’ll get 100% effort from me to tailor-make your arrangements – at no extra cost, with no stress or hassle. Plus everything I book is fully insured and financially protected (payments are held in separate trust accounts).Give me a call at any time, or drop me a message. You deserve the maximum value and enjoyment – I can help you get it.

Hello, I’m Sharon.I live in Arundel, West Sussex with my husband and our gorgeous Cyprus rescue Poodle who has travelled extensively with us on nearly every mode of transport and has held 3 different passports – Cypriot, UK and France. He is most certainly quite the little globetrotter.My love for travel began with my very first flight at just three years old. From that moment, I knew this was the industry I wanted to be part of. Over the past 40+ years, I’ve worked across many sectors of the travel and tourism industry, gaining invaluable experience & knowledge , of most elements that make up your holiday such as airlines - both on the ground and in the air, cruise lines, hotels - as well as co-owning a coach travel business for 20 years with my husband, and owning a Chambres d'hotes in Brittany, France .I grew up in beautiful South Africa, moving to the UK in my mid twenties. During my childhood, due to the size of South Africa, it was never necessary to travel abroad, so as a family we travelled extensively within the country. As well as visits to smaller countries in Southern Africa such as Botswana, Lesotho, Swaziland and Zimbabwe. As a young adult, after a few years with South African Airways, I then embarked onto my travel agent journey, selling inbound as well as outbound holidays. So my knowledge of South Africa is extensive, should this be a destination you are interested in. I have also lived in Brittany, France, and my travels have taken me to incredible destinations including the Caribbean, Canada, New York, Iceland, Mauritius, Dubai, and India — to name just a few. I also have a passion for cruising - where else can you be in a luxury hotel, unpack once, yet visit multiple destinations. What I love most about my job is helping bring a customer’s travel vision to life. I’m passionate about creating unforgettable holidays that are as unique as each of my clients. From our first conversation, we’ll talk about your ideal trip — your likes, dislikes, and those special little touches that will make it truly memorable. From there, I’ll craft a bespoke itinerary just for you. Whether you’re dreaming of relaxing on a beach, exploring a vibrant city, or setting sail on a luxury cruise, I’m here to help you every step of the way — from the moment you book until you return home. And with 24/7 support, you're never on your own.With my exceptional customer service, care, attention to detail, and the backing of Travel Counsellors — a globally recognised and trusted brand — you’ll have complete financial protection and total peace of mind.So, whether it’s a cosy UK getaway or a grand, round-the-world adventure, I’ll work closely with you to make sure your trip is everything you’ve dreamed of — and more.For me, travel isn’t just about getting from A to B. It’s about the stories, the memories, and the joy of discovery. I’m your personal Travel Advisor, here to turn your travel dreams into reality.

Hi there and thank you for taking the time to check out my webpage. Let me introduce myself, my name is Lara Jackson and I am excited to say I’m a Travel Counsellor based in Cheshire. A bit about me: I am married with 1 teenage son and as you can imagine their passion is football but mine is very much travel so the more football they do the more travelling I do (it’s only fair) meaning I have been lucky enough to visit some amazing destinations over the years.Travel has not only been my passion but fortunately it has been my profession and since leaving education 20 years ago (where does the time go?) I have worked for some of the leading travel organisations in the UK dealing with a wide variety of different travel requirements from, cheap and cheerful breaks to tailor-made holidays of a lifetime as well as more recently diversifying into business travel helping companies making the most of what they spend on travel. I have always wanted to work for myself but at the same time I wanted to ensure I had the infrastructure to make sure I could offer the best deals whilst delivering exceptional service to my clients and being part Travel Counsellors has given me the platform to do that. I always go above and beyond and particularly in these uncertain times, like me, you’ll always want to make sure you can pay for your holiday with the confidence that should anything go wrong then you are 100% financially protected.So why book with me? I’m well-travelled, what I mean by that is I have travelled to over 51 different countries and 5 continents, including; Europe, America, Hawaii, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Cook Island, Asia, Kenya, India, United Arab Emirates, Indian Ocean, Caribbean, Costa Rica and Egypt. Also if you’ve missed a connection or lost a document there’s no need to be caller number 872 on a travel website’s customer service line, I’ll be there to assist you 24/7 365 days, I’ll always endeavour to find you the best deal whether it’s a 1-stop beach holiday or for every aspect of a complicated multi-destination trip. Travel means everything to me and I know your holiday does to you, it isn’t just selling you a holiday it’s hopefully the start of a long-term relationship so whatever your needs my aim is to make your trip as simple and stress-free as possible.Thanks for considering me and hopefully look forward to speaking to you soon.

Hi! I’m Kathy and I’m ready to turn your travel dreams into a bespoke holiday, uniquely tailor-made for you. I have a very international background & a real passion for travel. I was born in Argentina, my mother in Peru and my father in South Africa. I have lived in England, Italy, Dubai, Florida, Hong Kong & Singapore before now calling Scotland my home. Prior to starting a family, I worked in luxury hotels, was Cabin Crew for Japan Airlines & employed by a large travel agency in London. I love experiencing and delivering consistent & personalised five-star service. I have backpacked around South East Asia, cruised the Galapagos Islands & been privileged to relax on numerous luxurious beaches stretching from the Caribbean to the Great Barrier Reef. I’ve enjoyed awe-inspiring road trips to discover iconic American canyons & cities and treasured family holidays in the Scottish Highlands & Islands. ‘Gross National Happiness’ in the Himalayan Kingdom of Bhutan and the history of countries like Egypt, Italy & Jordan have captivated me. Australia and New Zealand hold special memories too! Despite visiting over 50 countries around the world I still have a long travel wish list. My inquisitive mind would love to hear about your holiday ambitions and I will enthusiastically research less-familiar destinations whether in the U.K. or overseas. Whether you are travelling solo, as a couple, with over-energetic young children, hard-to-please teenagers or young-at-heart grandparents, I will listen carefully to your needs and take the time to discuss individual details. I will always go the extra mile to turn your travel dreams in to memorable & truly personal, bespoke experiences from start to finish ensuring you feel safe & excited about your travels, especially during this time of constant change. I work flexible hours and can arrange meeting in person or over the phone to fit in with your busy schedule. Diversity is the spice of life! I look forward to helping you with your next travel plans be it domestic or international. The stress-free start of your journey is only a call away.

Whether you are planning a chic city break, family getaway, honeymoon escape or once in a lifetime adventure I am here to make the whole experience seamless.I pride myself on offering genuine advice you can trust every time. No matter how big or small, I always manage your trip with the same attention to detail as I would my own. Through the years I have built up a 'little black book' of hotel, supplier and airline connections, all my contacts are invaluable when offering my clients that extra VIP touch or requesting that room with the best view.I have been a travel agent for over 19 years, but my real passion for travel started as a child. Before my five siblings and I were born, my parents travelled extensively. I can remember sitting for hours flicking through the enormous photo albums from their travels throughout Europe and on to Asia. Maybe it was the glamour of the 70s VW Camper set into the Italian Alps, or my parents in their matching Ray-Ban’s at the top of the Great Wall... either way, I was hooked and couldn’t wait to travel the world myself!I joined the industry as an apprentice in a high street Thomas Cook store in Sussex. Within two years I was working in their City of London flagship store where I won a Customer Service Award. After five years at Thomas Cook I took the leap into an independent leisure and business travel agency in Blackfriars - they were later acquired by an American travel management company. Here I ran the Luxury Leisure department, where I booked tailor-made leisure and business trips till I left five years later. During this time, I took the opportunity to work from the New York head office to expand on my global knowledge. Prior to starting my business I worked in Roadshow, Events & Marketing roles across different financial services sectors in the City of London. As well as time spent at a boutique hotel specialist and luxury villa agent.I can’t wait to help plan your next adventure, whether that’s a hopper flight to Dublin for business or a round the world cruise, you can rest assured you are 100% financially protected through Travel Counsellors Financial Trust and ATOL.I am contactable 24/7 so please do pick up the phone or drop me a message to chat over ideas and inspiration for your next trip.

Firstly, congratulations for landing safely on my page, which means one of two things, you misspelt ''Kuoni Kettering" in Google, or you’re very serious about your holidays and you're looking for travel done differently. If it's the former, then there isn't one in Kettering (see I'm helping already). If it's the latter, then let's grab a coffee and make a start... It’s a travel service, travel agency type-thingy but it’s different? Essentially yes, it's about fantastic personal service. Which means you can contact me at any time and you'll always get me. It means that I remember that last year you wanted to go to Borneo but your eldest broke his leg on the stupid skateboard that you told your mother she shouldn't buy him for Christmas. I remember that you prefer American Airlines business to BA... because of the ice cream sundaes... Right, well that's all good then. But it's not really just me looking after you and the two of us chatting endlessly on WhatsApp over which is the nicest bit of Bali when I should actually be getting my son ready for school. I'm in cahoots with the multi-award winning Travel Counsellors, a company that provides a global network of travel goodness (GNTG, it's a thing, promise) that means you and I can just relax and get back to discussing Disney Dining packages while they sit quietly in the background, doing what they do. They use their financial muscle so that I can offer you incredible deals, and absolutely guarantee every penny you spend through their financial trust. And as we debate why some of the lounges at Dubai airport really are so much better than others, they’re doing exciting things like the ATOL bonding, and making sure there’s always someone on the end of the phone for you if you need it. No matter what the time, or the time zone. You don’t do ‘normal’ holidays then? I most certainly do but I suppose in essence what I do is make normal trips amazing! That Virgin South Africa trip where you liked everything except day 6 of the itinerary? Then I'll break the whole thing down for you and we'll get rid of 'day at leisure', build in a Blue Safari and repackage it all up for you. I've got access to all the major travel suppliers and can add all the extras too, so the car that means you can get you to Gatwick while you finish the presentation you've been procrastinating over for 3 weeks, or the lounge that takes you closer to gin, and further from the airport Frankie and Benny's. We’ve got this far then, and you’re probably thinking why me? Not in the unexpected-item-in-the-bagging-area-for-the-fourth-time-kinda way, but in the who-is-this-woman-who’s-made-me-a-fake-coffee-and-rambled-on-about-holidays-for-three-paragraphs-kinda-way. I’m Beth (Hi!) Without giving too much away, I started my career in travel back when everyone thought Let Loose were the new NKOTB. Travel makes me me, and I’ve visited dozens of countries across five continents. Bluntly it’s an obsession I bore my husband with every evening. So if it can’t be me experiencing what it’s like to peer over the grand canyon, or feel the bounce of the seaplane skimming the azure that surrounds my paradise Maldivian island then I’ll do all in my power to make it feel for you like it did for me. So, with coffee dwindling and muffin finished (there was a muffin?!), I hope I've given you a sense of what travel done differently with me and with Travel Counsellors can mean.PS: You can contact me about literally any kind of trip, that honeymoon you’re finally planning (can’t believe he took so long to ask you!), that annual cruise around the Caribbean (I’m a bit of a cruise expert/bore to be honest – love a cruise), a romantic weekend getaway to New York, that long imagined Canada road trip, or just a beach to plonk yourself on (anywhere) for two weeks in the Summer.Maybe worth saying as well, there is no fee for my service. The many many travel suppliers I use sort me out, which is why I had a coffee AND a muffin!

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. Otherwise I have such special memories of family holidays to Disney, Lapland, beautiful beach breaks across most of Europe, exciting city breaks around the world, Caribbean treats, relaxing and indulgent cruises, and tailor made trips to Canada, the Far East, USA, Brazil, New Zealand and Australia. I look forward to hearing about your experiences and helping you plan your next adventure. I will work tirelessly to find the perfect holiday and look for ways to make it extra special. I will be honest and offer unbiased advice and above all I will never underestimate the size of your emotional and financial investment. I will support you throughout.So whether you are looking for a UK break, a tailor made worldwide itinerary, a city break, a relaxing week on the beach, a river or ocean cruise I would love to help you. I am available when and how it suits you. We all have different life schedules and I can work around yours.Please feel free to contact me by phone or email. The details are below. We already have our passion for travel in common so I know this will be fun.
