After being in the travel industry for over 30 years, I still get excited when I get a bespoke itinerary to quote on to a new or exotic destination.

Over the past twenty years, I have pieced together some amazing trips for customers, from trips on a dogsled to meet Father Christmas in his log cabin under the Northern Lights, Hiking to glaciers in Patagonia's Torres del Paine national park, dream honeymoons on the Eastern & Oriental Express and of course magical Safari's under the African sky to name a few. Having lived in South Africa for more than 20 years, I have been very fortunate to travel to many places in Africa as well as the Indian Ocean Islands, Madagascar, Seychelles and Mauritius and the Maldives.My ability to go the extra mile and pay attention to the detail is what matters most to me and my happiness rests in the knowledge that I have made every available effort to get to know your expectations, personal likes and dislikes as well as your budget.

Hello and welcome to my webpage. My name is Jasmine and I live in Bretby, Burton Upon Trent with my two children and husband who I met while working as holiday reps at a campsite just outside of Paris.Since an early age, travel has always been an important part of my life. I was born in Darwin, Australia and then moved to the UK as a child. Family holidays spent in Australia or Europe, camping in the Australian outback and adventure trips to Iceland helped to form a life long love of adventure.After studying for a BA in Travel and Tourism in Edinburgh, I took a year out, travelling extensively in Asia, Indonesia, Australia and New Zealand. When I returned to the UK, I joined an award winning international travel company and spent 10 years as a travel consultant creating tailor made holidays.

These experiences, coupled with a commitment to understanding your wishes and expectations, help me tailor individual packages which will hopefully create memories that last a lifetime. As a travel counsellor, any holiday is possible, from bespoke UK breaks to orangutan safaris in Borneo, I have the resources to book any type of itinerary. With over a decade of industry experience, a keen interest in unusual destinations, multi stop trips and, most recently, family holidays with two young children, my aim is to remove the stress from booking your holiday.I work from home and am available at times which can suit you.

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 with Thomas Cook in a role that entailed 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. For as long as I can remember I’ve enjoyed organising 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, following the collapse of Thomas Cook, to become a Travel Counsellor and to use my knowledge and experience to help others have holidays that are just as amazing.The hardest question for me is ‘what’s your favourite destination?’ as I’ve visited 75 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 more recently going to the ends of the earth on truly incredible and life affirming expedition cruises to the Arctic and 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!

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

Welcome to Travel Counsellors. My name is William and I live in Norwich, where I have been based in between bouts of travel for the last 45 plus years. Now in my thirteenth year with Travel Counsellors, I am passionate about travel and have been lucky enough to visit all seven continents, spending time in over one hundred countries; from Australia to Zimbabwe, Austria to Zambia. I am married with a fifteen year old daughter, who already has her fair share of passport stamps! Alex is now twelve and doing his best to catch up with his big sister, although he does prefer it at home!I joined Travel Counsellors as I wanted to concentrate on giving my customers the highest possible levels of personal service and independent travel advice. Travel Counsellors is one of the largest independent travel agencies in the UK. Before becoming a Travel Counsellor in January 2009, I was a travel consultant with another large independent agency in the UK and prior to that I worked as a flight attendant with British Airways and Air UK. I studied Interpreting and Translation (French and German) at the University of East Anglia, and can also converse in Spanish, Dutch and Italian, should the need arise. This can be very helpful when making special requests for clients directly with hotels, tour companies and airlines.After my studies, I spent nearly three years roaming the globe on an ‘extended’ honeymoon incorporating a special wedding gift of an Antarctic cruise from the southern tip of Argentina. Other trips include extensive travel through Southern and East Africa, USA, Canada, South America, Australia, New Zealand, numerous smaller islands in the Pacific (Fiji, Cook Islands, Tonga and Samoa, among others) and time in South East Asia (Malaysia, Thailand, Laos to name but a few) and the Far East. The cruising bug has also caught me - I have first-hand experience of A-Rosa, Riviera Travel's river cruise boats, AMA Waterways, Regent Seven Seas, Fred Olsen, Azamara Cruise Club, Silverseas, Royal Caribbean, Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL), Princess, Gap Adventures and Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC).I can offer you up to date, first-hand knowledge of many countries, can guarantee to be enthusiastic about your booking (and only a little envious!) and save you the time and stress of carrying out your own research. So, be it short stays in the UK and the rest of Europe, honeymoons abroad, fly-drives in the USA or complicated round-the-world itineraries, please do contact me; I look forward to hearing from you.Best wishes,

I have worked in the travel industry in both leisure and corporate travel for over 20 years now. A gap year desire to travel became three years of living and working in various far-flung places, but I found I was always working for small tour companies, at hotels and once even on a yacht around Madagascar!My desire to travel and work within this industry lead me first to leisure and tailor-made trips. The conversation of where to go and what to do when there, to make every trip full and unforgettable with someone is always a great experience. I still travel as often as possible as there is no substitute for real first experience of that feeling when you walk into an amazing lobby or just warm and charming hotel. There is no way to describe the sand between your feet or a wonder of an ancient temple without the feel and sense of awe. That’s what I get to sell. While I have a passion for these trips, my long career lead to a focus on corporate travel over the last 8 years. The fast pace and often complicated logistical nature is something I found I really enjoy. While the travel may be corporate, I believe the service should be personal and in a friendly manner. I have experience with meetings, groups, conferences and can assist in writing and implementing travel policy and booking process if needed.

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.

I am Teresa Jones. I’m married with two grown up stepdaughters and 16 year old daughter. After living in London for twenty years I returned to my home county of Nottinghamshire where we now live a very different life in a small friendly village outside the pretty and historic minster town of Southwell.Before I became a Travel Counsellor, I spent twenty-five years in The City working in a demanding role for a global financial services company. Anyone who knows me will tell you that I have an absolute passion for travel. If I’m not actually travelling, I’m talking or reading about it, planning my next trip or advising friends and family with their own adventures. Being a Travel Counsellor and helping others realise their own travel dreams is my ultimate job.From my first ever overseas holiday to Malta aged ten and experiencing the azure waters of The Blue Grotto, eating fresh fish by the harbour and walking the hot and dusty streets of Valletta, I knew I was addicted to travel.Since then, through both work and personal life, I have been fortunate to visit over forty countries. From road trips through California drinking in the sights and the Pinot Noir, to snorkelling in the Maldives with the clownfish, to skiing corduroy slopes under vivid blue Alpen skies, to sunrise safaris spying lions in South Africa or gazing at Sydney Opera House; it would be impossible to choose a favourite. However, Bali and its charming people and Portugal and its vast expanses of golden beaches are both very dear to my heart.My whole career has been spent striving to exceed the expectations of highly demanding corporate clients. I’ve turned these skills to arranging bespoke travel experiences that perfectly match my clients’ requirements. I’m not tied to office hours so happy to speak at a time that suits you.So, whether it be long or short-haul luxury beach breaks; family getaways; exotic adventures; road trips; winter sports; honeymoons; cruises; exquisite city breaks or staycations; I’d be delighted to share my experiences with you to help you plan your next expedition be it near or far.So, what are you waiting for? Let’s go!“Travelling – it leaves you speechless, then it turns you into a storyteller.” Ibn Battuta

Hello, I’m Claire – and I’m here to make your travel dreams a reality. Whether you’re planning a once-in-a-lifetime adventure or a well-earned weekend escape, I’ll take care of every detail to ensure it’s seamless, memorable, and completely tailored to you.My love for travel really took off 15 years ago when my husband and I tied the knot on the beautiful Caribbean island of Antigua. We hadn’t been before, so there was a leap of faith involved — but it turned out to be unforgettable for us and every one of our guests. If you’ve not experienced it yet, I’d definitely recommend adding it to your list!Since then, we’ve been fortunate enough to travel far and wide — from cruising the Caribbean by catamaran and road-tripping in a Winnebago from San Francisco to Las Vegas, to experiencing luxury train travel and safari in South Africa. We’ve snorkelled with manta rays in the Maldives and explored all that Australia has to offer. Let’s just say... we live by the rule: never come back from one holiday without having another one booked!With a strong background in customer service, I’m passionate about building relationships, understanding your travel style, and delivering the kind of thoughtful, detailed service that takes the stress out of holiday planning.When you book with me, you’re not just getting a travel agent — you’re getting a personal travel expert who’s with you from the very first conversation to the moment you return home. You’ll have access to my experience, recommendations, and the peace of mind that comes with knowing everything’s been taken care of.So, whether you're dreaming of a UK mini-break, a Mediterranean beach escape, or a far-flung adventure of a lifetime — I’d love to help make it happen."The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step..." — let’s take that step together.

“A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step” Planning your next trip away? Let me help you create your dream holiday with a bespoke and tailor-made itinerary. I pride myself on my customer service and being personal, working with you to find the best holiday for you, whilst using my knowledge and passion for travel. Hello and welcome to my page. My name is Lucie and I am originally from North Yorkshire in the UK. I recently relocated back to South Manchester, after spending 13 years in Dubai. I moved to Dubai in 2011, with my Husband, to follow our dreams of living abroad. Our son was born in Dubai 8 years ago and has also developed a passion for travel, going on his first cruise around the Mediterranean in 2019. I had a break from working in the travel industry to have my son, however, prior to that, I worked in the industry for 10 years, in various roles from Leisure to Corporate travel. I also studied an AVCE in Travel and Tourism and have lived in Germany as a child and explored Germany and other countries close by, I feel this set me on the path to having the travel bug.I went on to study German at university and lived there whilst studying. When I finished my studies, I took a year out to go backpacking around Australia and Asia. Whilst working for an international airline my Husband and I travelled to over 26 countries and over 100 cities. Travel really is my passion, and I have been lucky enough to enjoy all sorts of holidays from backpacking around Australia, to cruising the Mediterranean, to a safari in Kenya on the Masai Mara and even attending a friend’s wedding in Las Vegas. More recently we have taken up skiing as a Family. My son learnt to ski on the sunny slopes of Dubal Mall's indoor ski area, so he developed a passion for skiing. Since then, we have travelled to Azerbaijan and most recently New Jersey for ski holidays. During the pandemic we were limited in terms of travel, however we managed to experience lots of amazing staycations in Dubai. Since then, we have travelled to the Maldives, Mauritius and Ski Lanka, as well as enjoying the ski trips. Having worked in the travel industry my whole career, I have strong knowledge about various destinations and can create tailor-made packages to suit your budget, so please do get in touch with me. I look forward to hearing from you and planning your next trip!

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

I became a Travel Counsellor in 2023 when I started a new chapter in my career after 40 years in hospitality and tourism. I am currently based in Silsoe, in Central Bedfordshire, having moved back from Antigua in the Eastern Caribbean where I had been living for the past 20 years with my family. During my career, I have worked in Europe, the United States, and Africa, before moving to the Caribbean gaining extensive experience in the hospitality field, a journey that has taken me to 57 countries so far with hopefully more to be added to the list. It is now time to share this knowledge and passion with others. I could consider myself a Caribbean specialist having spent time in most of the islands of the Eastern Caribbean. I believe that the Caribbean is a place that offers something for everyone and I can provide advice to anyone looking to explore this region from helping to plan a dream vacation, to creating custom itineraries tailored to your specific needs and budget. However, I would not like to think of myself as only selling the Caribbean and can help you put together a bespoke vacation in many other destinations. I have travelled extensively in the US and Canada in recent years from LA to Boston and Las Vegas to Florida as well as across the border into Canada. There are a lot of great places to visit on this side of the Atlantic which I know also very well having lived and worked in France and Belgium. In France I had the privilege of working at the ultra-luxury Hotel Le Bristol in Paris for eight years and was part of the opening team of Euro Disney as it was know back then, in 1992. I am now looking forward to helping others with their travel plans. Having worked in the luxury hotel sector I am passionate about providing excellent personalized customer service and ensuring that you have an enjoyable and stress-free experience planning and booking your vacation. Whatever your budget I will create your perfect holiday. So whether it be a family beach holiday, a weekend break, a tailor-made trip, a cruise, a wedding overseas or honeymoon, or just a business trip, you can reach out with confidence knowing that with Travel Counsellors’ award-winning technology, I have access to hundreds of suppliers and airlines ensuring you a holiday that is tailored just for you. For your peace of mind, everything you book through me is 100% financially protected by the Travel Counsellors Financial Trust and ATOL. No ifs, no buts, you won’t find this anywhere on the internet. It is the best financial protection in the industry. Feel free to call or email me with your requirements and I will respond immediately, I really look forward to hearing from you!

I know first-hand how important it is to have a wonderful holiday and make memories to last a lifetime.

Hi everyone!I’m a Travel Counsellor based in Exeter, Devon in the UK.I have grown-up children. We’ve spent most of the last fifteen years in the Middle East, where my husband works, and have used both that region as well as our home in the UK as our starting and finishing point for international travel.I’ve been in the travel business for many years and previously ran my own travel website, helping clients to enjoy the best destinations available worldwide. I pride myself on my ability to communicate with people and helping them to share my enthusiasm for optimising their travel experience with the right choice of destination. Advice on how to do that cost-effectively and without loss of quality is a vital part of my service.One of my personal favourite destinations is the Caribbean. What a place! Sun, sea, sand, great attractions, both day and night, and lovely people. People who have honed to a fine art the ability to extend genuine friendliness and a welcoming way to tourists visiting their lovely tranquil countries and idyllic tropical islands.I love my work as a Travel Counsellor. The satisfaction that comes from being able to advise my clients about how to get the best from their holiday aspirations is obviously a great feeling. At the same time, however, I’m aware of the great responsibility which rests on my shoulders when seeking to ensure that disappointment isn’t an option. Most people only have a few weeks a year to get away from it all and they want to spend their hard-earned cash on the best leisure experience they can possibly get. The number of clients who have returned to me again and again has given me confidence that I must be doing something right!I’m also proud and pleased to announce that my daughter, Sophie, has now joined me in the business and is looking forward to helping me to help you even more efficiently. She’ll be doing her bit to ensure your experience from initial enquiry to your completion of a wonderful vacation is as smooth and carefree as possible.So, if you want to make the world your oyster, from cruises to sun and beach destinations, or skiing and more adventurous holidays all over the world, contact me (and Sophie!) so we can get together to get it right.“To travel is to live” – Hans Christian Andersen

Hello, I'm Samm a Travel Counsellor based in Essex.I am passionate about travelling and visiting new places. I care about my clients, taking the time to listen to their wishes to plan the best experience and build a long term professional relationship with them. I put together bespoke holiday quotes searching a vast choice of travel operators and suppliers. Your holiday is 100% financially protected and covered by ATOL. I take care of everything from initial enquiry, right up until the moment you return home. I'm always available to talk. I can help you with anything from skiing, cruise, family, Disney, UK breaks, short and long haul.I've always loved travelling; from a young age my parents stopped telling me when we were going away as I would get too excited so they'd just wake me on the morning of the holiday to tell me we were going away. I've travelled alone from a young age, visiting a pen pal in France at age 14 and work experience in Germany at 17 years old. I then went away to University in Devon and also a semester in the USA. After University I went to the Philippines to work and travel. I've had some amazing experiences in Asia, USA, Africa, South America, Australia and Europe. I love to experience different cultures and meet the local people.I'm happiest when I am planning my next adventure or writing a list of what I need to do for my next trip. I love being outdoors and keeping fit. My husband and I have a campervan and I love our short trips exploring the beautiful countryside. I enjoy writing, especially travel blogs. The only thing I don't love about travel is leaving my lovely cats behind!Please do get in touch if you are thinking about your next holiday or adventure. I can't wait to hear from you!

If you have trouble finding the perfect holiday or simply don’t have the time or energy I can help. My passion for travel began after buying my first Inter-railing ticket around Europe. During those four weeks I learnt so much about different cultures, cities and food. I was hooked! From that moment on I decided to work in travel and help others fulfill their travelling dreams.After graduation I worked for one of the leading travel agents in Kensington, London where I specialised in long haul, tailor-made holidays. My fondest memories were creating bespoke holidays for different people, with different budgets and different dreams; be it long haul, short haul, budget, luxury, backpack or family break.I have been fortunate enough to experience many different types of holidays, having backpacked around the world after University, had luxury trips whilst working in the travel industry, and more recently (now I understand what it’s like travelling with children) family holidays closer to home in Europe. Some of my highlights include white water rafting down the Zambezi river in Africa, paragliding and bungee jumping in New Zealand, walking the Inca Trail in Peru, a desert safari in Dubai and relaxing on the fantastic beaches in Portugal.I am delighted to have joined Travel Counsellors. In our increasingly busy lives I feel holidays are so important but we rarely have enough time to find the perfect one. I can help you. I am committed to using my experience and contacts to go the extra mile and bring together an experience that you won’t forget.I look forward to speaking to you soon.Thanks

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.

Hi My name is Dave Jopling and I have recently joined Travel Counsellors working from my home town of York. I have lived in the York area on and off for over 40 years. If I have ever had to move away for whatever reason I have always had the urge to move back as it's just a great place to live and work.I have been employed in the Travel Industry for 34 years in both the Leisure and Business travel sectors. During this time I have lived and worked all over the country and have been providing all the various travel products from the more complicated flight itineraries with hotels and car hire etc to passport and visa information and everything in between. Because of a combination of my Business Travel background and my knowledge gained over the years of air fare structures and the independant hotel rates that Travel Counsellors have at their fingertips I firmly believe that I can give a new dimension to the long haul leisure travel market.You can stay for as long as you want or even extend stays if you so prefer and you can travel in First, Business or Economy class or any combination and much more. It really does open new doors for you. I have been very fortunate over the years due to being in the travel industry to have travelled all over the world. These experiences have enabled me to gather invaluable knowledge on a vast array of destinations. My favourite part of the world is definitely the Far East as it has such an array of different experiences. You can just relax on some of the best beaches in the world or you can shop 'till you drop in places such as Hong Kong, Singapore, Kuala Lumpur or Tokyo. Anything is possible.With Travel Counsellors you have an organisation with global buying power, security, reliability and a name you can really trust. I think the service you will receive, you will find is second to none.If you need any more information about either myself or Travel Counsellors, please either email or telephone me on the details above. I look forward to hearing from you soonKind RegardsDave

I am Jenni and travelling the globe in a creative and alternative way is my passion. I am here to introduce YOU to my way of experiencing the world and all it has to offer. From a young age, I was always fascinated by holidays and hotels. Lucky enough to have experienced many a hotel and holiday by the time I was making those oh so important life choices, I decided to follow my passion and study hospitality at one of the world’s leading hotel schools. This only served to fuel my passion for travel and top notch service and working at places such as The Gleneagles Hotel and The Four Seasons Hotel, London at Park Lane really opened my eyes to many different reasons that people travel. These experiences also helped hone my skills and aptitude for creating truly magical and memorable moments. Following an early career in the hospitality and travel sector, I realised that my passion for helping people plan their travels; from short breaks to lengthy adventures, knew no bounds and that is when my travel business was born.

Hello, and Welcome to my webpage.I am an independent Travel Counsellor based in Toddington, Bedfordshire. With over 30 years working in the Travel Industry, I think it is safe to say Travel is my passion, and not just my personal trips but also my career. For the last 23 years I worked for a major Corporate Travel Company and during my time there I was extremely proud to be named Employee of the Year 2013 and receive a Pacesetter Award for Outstanding achievements. I have travelled extensively and with my knowledge and personal experience I would love to be able to help create your dream holiday, whether it be a long-haul adventure, skiing, cruising, a fun city break, time out on a beach or a week in the English countryside. My personal trips have taken me far and wide – Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia, Sri Lanka, Dubai & Bali. Many parts of the USA (from trekking in the Rockies to skydiving in Las Vegas and much more in between!) Canada, Cuba, Jamaica, Cyprus, Turkey, Greek Islands, many parts of Spain, The Algarve, and countless other European cities and beach destinations. A couple of cruises and a fair bit of skiing in Bulgaria, Austria & France as well, so I have been busy in my 35 years of travelling, have loved every minute and still it continues! The flexibility of being a Travel Counsellor means that I am available to you whenever is convenient, be it during the day, evenings or weekends to speak on the phone or a face-to-face chat. We can discuss your travel plans so we get it just right – for you.Thank you for reading my webpage and taking the time to find out about me. I look forward to hearing from you.As Mark Twain quoted - Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbour. Catch the trade winds in your sail. Explore. Dream. Discover.

Starting my own business and setting up with Travel Counsellors is something that feels so natural, I wonder why I didn’t do it sooner. Having spent my career to date in events and luxury hospitality, I feel so passionately about delivering a personal service to clients to make their lives easier and less stressful. I love everything about travel from a fly and flop holiday to backpacking around the lesser known parts of South East Asia, travel has always been a part of my life and a true passion of mine.To me, the idea of having a Travel Counsellor that you know and trust, is like having a personal assistant to manage any and all aspects of what travel and holidays mean to you. Getting to know clients, understanding their needs and requirements, what makes them tick and learning about what they want from a trip is what makes me love doing what I do. For me, researching a new place or putting together an itinerary for a client doesn’t really feel like work and when I say I can research, I will find out everything there is to know to ensure it really will deliver what you’re looking for. As a working mum to 2 young children, having the flexibility to work when and where I want is also a dream come true. I am available to chat (on the phone or online) whenever it suits you, and where possible, would always suggest a meeting in person so I can really get to know you. In the current day, where life sometimes seems impossibly busy, and the internet, whilst it has it’s many benefits, can also leave us feeling overwhelmed and caught in a rabbit hole, I am here to take away any stress that booking a holiday or a trip away may cause. Taking time out of our busy lives has never been more important. Booking with Travel Counsellors doesn’t just mean working with me; you also have the full support of our award winning head office team so if there’s ever a problem, we are all here to support and make sure you get sorted so you can get back to relaxing. All bookings are ATOL protected and have full financial protection.Whatever the enquiry, large or small, I would be delighted to help so I look forward to hearing from you soon.

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!

My name is Sharon Messett and I have more than 30 years’ experience in the travel industry, including 20 working as a Travel Counsellor. It’s a role I love, as it gives me the chance to embrace my passion for travel on a daily basis, exploring new destinations through my research as well as returning to old favourites. I find it enormously rewarding helping my clients find the best experience possible for the type of holiday they want, whether it be a ‘flop and drop’ family beachside holiday, or a luxury retreat.I have been fortunate to have travelled extensively myself; including trips to Australia, New Zealand, the South Pacific, Southeast Asia, Africa, North America and the Caribbean, and have gained intimate knowledge of these long-haul destinations. Now that I have children, I am enjoying discovering more short-haul destinations around Europe including some amazing road trips with them to central Europe. For me, one of the best things about travel is the freedom that it gives you – travel brings anticipation, education, excitement and the joy of adventure into your life!TRAVEL WITH A CONSCIENCE My travels have also shown me the positive and negative effects of tourism; at its best when it is supporting communities who rely on visitors for their income, and at its worst where over-tourism has had a detrimental effect on locals and the environment. Over time, this has given me the opportunity to reflect, and I have realised that I have a growing interest in sustainable tourism. I would like to help you to find holidays and destinations which are amazing experiences and have a minimal impact or preferably offer positive environmental footprints.Travelling sustainably and responsibly is becoming increasingly more and more important for many travellers, and as your Travel Advisor I can carefully consider how to assist in building your perfect itinerary to make your trip kind to both people and our planet. I believe that sustainable travel also helps us to have more authentic travel experiences – visiting unspoilt places and immersing in the local culture is one of my passions, and one that I share with many of my clients.BOOK WITH ME AND I’LL LOOK AFTER YOU When it comes to travel, it’s important to know that you are booking with someone dependable, who you can trust, and who understands your precise needs every step of the way. The close relationships I build with each and every one of my clients, and the levels of care I can provide as your Travel Advisor, means that no-one can look after you better than I will. It makes me extremely proud to know that so many of my customers have recommended my services to their family, friends and associates. Being an independent Travel Advisor means I am not restricted to using only major holiday companies and allows me to create the perfect trip for you. Booking through Travel Counsellors also gives you security, as your money is completely financially protected against supplier failure by ATOL and the unique Travel Counsellors Trust.LOOKING AHEAD – PLAN YOUR GETAWAY I am sure that many of you, like me, want to plan a holiday for 2025/2026 - to have something to look forward to. Let me provide you with first-hand expertise and information to inspire your next adventure and let's see where the next year takes you.If you are unable to travel yet, then the next best thing to travelling is talking about it and planning it. Therefore, if you can't yet go where you want to just yet, let's discuss your plans instead. Please give me a call or send me an email and we can have a chat!

My experience in the travel industry is far-reaching having worked for over 16 years for a leading luxury UK tour operator and prior to that, two years at a successful independent travel agent. My travel highlights have included travelling to Venice on board the Orient Express, swimming with dolphins in Bermuda, sailing the Norwegian fjords, sampling afternoon tea at the Peninsula Hotel in Hong Kong, arriving in Monaco by helicopter and marvelling at a performance of Cinderella at the Mariinsky Theatre in St Petersburg. My travel inspiration started from a young age when I lived in the south of France and East Germany for a year as part of my language degree. In later years, I took a sabbatical in South Africa, where I volunteered at a rehabilitation centre for sick and injured animals and took the opportunity to explore the Gauteng & Limpopo provinces. I am a self-confessed USA addict and for our honeymoon back in 2019 we travelled to Boston, Cape Cod and the gulf coast of Florida. I am fortunate to have family on the West Coast of the States, have extensive knowledge of California (In September 2025 I clocked up my 17th trip!) and am adept at arranging coastal road trips. Everything is entirely personalised according to your tastes, budget and sense of adventure! I am a veritable ‘foodie’ in my free time (as my past travel blogs have always attested to) and my concierge expertise extends to recommending local restaurants and making reservations in advance to enhance your travel experience. My wealth of experience and personal knowledge, together with exceptional patience will ensure I source the correct holiday according to your exact requirements. This is reflected in the consistent positive feedback I have received from longstanding clients and past awards I have been given for customer satisfaction.I was born & bred in Horsham, West Sussex and after London adopting me for 15 years, returned to my home roots with my husband and dog Sammie. My personal circumstances allow me to work flexible hours and I am more than happy to discuss travel plans outside of normal office hours. Perhaps once the children have been put to bed or when you have more time to yourself at weekends.Building my business from the ground up has been hard work and pressurised at times but as I reach my 8-year landmark as a business owner, I feel a huge sense of achievement and excitement for the future. So.....where will 2026 take you?I very much look forward to hearing from you.

With over 21 years experience of working front line sales for a leading travel company, I've decided to take my career to the next level. Working with global award winning Travel Counsellors has given me the opportunity to have my own franchise, setting my own high standards of both service and product, using my vast experience to deliver a high standard of industry expertise.For you, this will begin at enquiry stage, leading you through some of the options available, you can then settle on which of the tailor-made travel itineraries best suit you. I'll provide personal recommendations where required, all to deliver a service that exceeds your expectations, and travel experience that will leave you with un-forgettable memories.During my 19 years I've acquired some stand out travel experiences, most recently, taking in the stunning natural beauty of the Maldives with my wife, where I was able to fulfil a life long ambition of swimming with manta-ray. Spotting the Big five at South Africa's Shamwari Game reserve along with skydiving over Table Mountain in Cape town, marvelling at the patient craftmanship of the Taj Mahal followed by exploring the backwater's of Southern India to name a few highlights of my travels. Not wanting to keep the world to myself, I've also taken my wife and four children, aged between 8 and 18 to Barbados, Dubai, Thailand and across much of Europe, so I can certainly pre-empt the considerations you'd need to make when travelling with a family. A particularly memorable occasion has to be my shopping and show trip to New York with my two teenage girls, never a dull moment! To list all the places, and diverse cultural experiences I've had will take up half this page, but from the shows and nightlife of Vegas and New York to the Thai markets and Indian temples, I can bring much experience to your tentative enquiry. Over the last 5 years, I've also focused on corporate travel. The challenge of catering for the fast paced high demand is where I come into my own. Finding route and ticket solutions that you'd maybe not see possible with your own planning, I take the strain out of booking business travel, a little more of this is highlighted on my Business travel page via the link.

I’m Paula, mum to two adventurous boys and we love to travel. Plain and simple. I started my career in travel over 35 years ago and during that time I’ve soared through the treetops in the Dominican Republic, swam with dolphins in Mexico and ascended the giddy heights of Corcovado Mountain in Rio. When I’m not hurtling down a zip line, I’m equally as happy experiencing the local culture and relaxing by the pool.Over the years I’ve worked for various travel companies arranging bespoke travel for leisure, corporate and VIPs. I’m passionate about fulfilling your travel needs, and by taking the time to find out what’s important to you I’ll provide you with a personal and professional service. Whether you are travelling for business or pleasure, I can take care of all your travel arrangements including airport parking, lounge passes and car hire.I love holidays and been fortunate to have visited many wonderful destinations including: USA and Canada, Central and South America Caribbean Far East Africa Australia plus, European countries closer to homeI don’t have set traditional working hours, I work from home and you can contact me at a time that suits you! No longer will you need to spend hours trawling the internet - let me give you back that valuable time and do the searching for you. Planning your next trip or looking for inspiration on where to go? Please call or message me. You can also connect with me on LinkedIn or like my Facebook page @PaulaSaundersTC and let me know what’s on your bucket list!I look forward to hearing from you soon.

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.
