    01823 813750 Taunton, Somerset

    I’m Em, I’m based in the beautiful South West of England, but I work with clients all over the UK. Booking a holiday can be exhausting: firstly you have the destination – with so much of the world out there to choose from and so many places more accessible now than ever before, just deciding where to go can be a headache! And once you know where you want to travel to, you have to manage everything else - the flights, the accommodation, the activities, the transfers – all whilst working to budget and often whilst trying to ensure that the needs of your entire party are met. In today’s environment where we are all time-poor and working harder than ever, a holiday is more important than ever before, and we all want to get every detail just right. This is where I come in. As a Travel Counsellor, I make it my business to make your holiday as stress free as possible. From the moment you make your initial enquiry, I will work closely with you to custom build a bespoke trip from start to finish. I can plan an itinerary that encompasses every single element, or you can simply use me for the basics – it’s completely your choice. Whether you’re looking for a girls trip, a couples getaway, a family holiday, a solo tour or the adventure of a lifetime, I will work with you at every stage of the process, paying close attention to your wishes, needs and budget and adding those extra touches that a traditional travel company won’t do. When you work with me I will do everything I can to make sure that your trip is something that you remember forever – all you have to do is pack a bag and a Passport!To contact me, you can use my contact details on this page. You can also message me through my socials or direct via Whatsapp.

    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

    Hello and a big thank you for taking the time to visit my webpage, I love to travel and by visiting this webpage hopefully you do too! I am a highly experienced travel agent based in Macclesfield, Cheshire, with global destinations at my fingertips.I trust you will find the below introduction helpful and that I can inspire you to pick up the phone or drop me a line for a chat about where in the world next awaits you.My passion for travel really took off when I booked a round the world flight ticket in 1997. I largely lived, worked and travelled in Australia, also taking in Fiji and Hawaii on the way home. I have always loved adventure and this opened a whole new world of excitement, experiences and many life-long friends.Ever since, I have been fortunate to travel to many worldwide destinations and experience some magical places. From mountaineering and jungle trekking in Borneo, cruising the Egyptian Nile and riding donkeys to the Valley of the Kings, snowboarding and husky sledding in Canada, scuba diving with sharks in Fiji, hang gliding in Brazil, safaris in Kenya, honeymooning in Zanzibar, crayfish parties in Sweden, to road trips across the USA taking in some of the most breath-taking scenery imaginable.One of my favourite memories is proposing to my wife whilst scuba diving in Tobago, using an underwater slate and a makeshift ring. Thankfully she ticked the ‘Yes’ box and we returned to the surface to cheers from our fellow dive buddies. As of 2018 there are 195 countries in the world and I find it amazing that whilst I feel well travelled, I know I have only really scratched the surface (and occasionally gone underneath when diving!) To fuel my passion for travel, I worked for seven years for two bespoke travel companies, immersing myself further into new destinations, sharing my knowledge and experience and what it can do for the human spirit. I am highly experienced helping business and leisure travellers, designing bespoke trips whilst offering an exceptional level of care and service, whatever your travel requirements and aspirations, big or small. I am available 24/7, before, during and after your trip, to help and assist with recommendations and solving those unforeseen hiccups.In a world of computers, robots and technology, there is still nothing like a personal touch. Let me help take you on your next journey and make it an even more memorable experience.

    Hi my name is Dan and I am a Travel Counsellor in London.I have successfully worked in the travel and leisure industry for 20 years and it is something that really ticks a lot of boxes for me.Discovering new places, meeting different people and cultures are important for one’s personal growth. Ever since I started working in the industry my eyes have been opened to a huge world out there to explore and helping people discover and book trips to those far off lands gives me a great sense of satisfaction in that I might have helped someone discover something new in this world.As well as leisure travel, I also offer corporate travel. I have honed my skills in designing and managing travel itineraries that optimize efficiency, comfort, and cost-effectiveness. From arranging complex multi-city trips to ensuring last-minute changes are handled smoothly, I thrive in fast-paced environments where attention to detail and adaptability are crucial.I started working in the travel industry in the cruise sector which brings to the table another exciting world of opportunities to see several parts of the world in one holiday. It is a unique type of travel that allows a customer to experience several destinations and cultures in one holiday. This was closely followed by the tailor making of unique holidays, custom made for the travellers so if there is something that you would like to experience more of then that can be arranged.Although it sounds cliché I would never book a holiday for someone that I would be averse to taking myself. One should always put themselves in the customers shoes and imagine, as best as you can, what they want to do and how they want to do it. One’s work is a reflection of a person’s personality and the enjoyment and success I have achieved in travel holds me in good stead so don’t hesitate to call for a chat to see what adventure I can help you go on next.

    Danielle Hewitt

    07921 376334 Bolton

    Well, Hello There, My name is Danielle, I am super pleased you have taken the time to pop over and check out my profile. I would like to say a warm welcome to you and introduce myself. I am a Travel Counsellor and I live in (not so) sunny Bolton, Manchester. Given my locations, is it really any wonder I have a passion for travel and getting away to those warmer and sometimes colder climates! As the tale goes, everyone who works in travel loves to travel and I am no exception to this. From dream destinations, amazing city breaks, cruises, relaxing sunshine holidays, far east expeditions through to ski trips, I have been on, and love them all. So, a bit about myself, after spending over 10 years over in the IT side of the world working with Travel Companies on their travel systems, travel websites and travel products focussed on smoothing out the ever-complicated holiday customer journey, it is safe to say I know how challenging it can be to sort your own holiday. Trawling through multiple websites, pouring over Tripadvisor reviews, looking endlessly at hotels and holidays, seeing different flights over here and different hotels over there, to then, when you eventually decide on 'the one' and you hover over the all-important ‘Book’ button, you find the price increases putting you right back at square one. Well here I am, I can take all that hard work away, and create amazing holiday experiences for you and the ones you love whilst you sit back and relax. I’ll work with you to understand your travel dreams, wants and needs and then work my magic to explore and find the perfect destination and itinerary just for you ticking all of your boxes and more. So, whether you have a destination, hotel, or tour in mind, or if you are ready to be inspired, let me take care of all your travel needs. Given my own personal travel experiences and industry knowledge, I can support you in any and all destinations and experiences. Whether your ideal holiday is relaxing and re-charging on a beach, exploring a city and all it has to offer with friends, making magical moments with little kids and those big ones, starting married life in style with the most luxurious honeymoon, finally doing the once in a lifetime trip you have been dreaming of, or exploring a little closer to home in the UK, I can arrange every single aspect and take the hassle away for you. My previous IT life still stays with me, meaning I am all about the details, making sure nothing gets missed or overlooked.

    Hi, I’m Nigel and my goal is to make sure you have a fantastic holiday! I can find you the very best family/luxury/cruise/adventure or any other type of holiday, and I can also arrange just flights or accommodation if you prefer.Many of my customers return to book with me time after time. This is because they trust my judgment (I will only book holidays that I would go on myself!) and they get peace of mind that if anything should go wrong while they are away, the Travel Counsellors and myself are here for them 24/7. I live in the quaint Oxfordshire village of Souldern near Bicester. My passion for travel and my love for experiencing exotic places led me to a career in the travel industry. I have over 14 years’ experience as a Top Performing Manager for a well-known high street agent, winning two National Travel Industry Awards, one in Outstanding Customer Service and the other in Travel Industry Innovation and Service. I have a wealth of knowledge, expertise and personal recommendations, all of which I share with you, helping to make sure you have the best time and come home with some wonderful memories. Over the years I have visited a vast array of countries and experienced some beautiful places such as the fabulous Versace hotel on the gold coast of Australia, the magnificent Bellagio in Las Vegas, the breathtaking Chateau Lake Louise Canada - and my overall favourite, the elegance of Cunard’s Queen Elizabeth cruise ship to name just a few.I have end-to-end expertise in booking all different types of holidays, from honeymoons in the Maldives to chasing the Northern Lights, family fun in the Balearics to a weekend break in New York, or even a bespoke private tour of China. I have every piece of information you need at my fingertips ensuring I book the right holiday for you. Ask me anything you like! Are there enough sunbeds? When is hurricane season? What’s the area like outside the hotel or are there lots of steps? What about free child places? I’ll know the answer, so with me you really do get far more than you would by just booking online.

    Samantha Lee

    01524576015 Heysham

    I've always been the "go-to travel person" in my circle - the one people message at 10pm asking "What's the weather like here?" or "Can you check my itinerary?" After working in travel before and planning more holidays than I can count, turning that passion into something I get to do every day just made sense. Travel has always been a huge part of my life. I genuinely believe it's one of the best things you can do for your mental health - whether that's switching off on a beach. exploring somewhere new, or finding a place that makes you feel a bit more like yourself again. That feeling is exactly why I love what I do. Seeing someone return home relaxed, refreshed and full of memories, knowing I played a small part in it, is something I'll never get tired of. I'm a solo traveller at heart and have explored Europe, Thailand and Canada. My next bucket list trip is Antarctica next year, which I'm super excited about. Greece, though, is the place that has my whole heart - and where I hope to live one day with my Golden Retriever, Digby. Speaking of Digby...he's officially my Head of Marketing and Chief Happiness Officer. He specialises in morale boosting, attention-seeking, and reminding me when it's time for a holiday. He also keeps me well-trained in finding the best dog-friendly spots - we're planning a trip to France after Christmas so if you're wanting to travel with your pet, you're in very capable hands. My approach is simple: no pressure, just honest advice and thoughtful, tailored travel planning. I take the time to understand what matters to you and make sure every detail feels 100% perfect. Wherever you're dreaming of next, I'm here to help you get there - stress-free, excited, and ready to make those unforgettable memories.

    Welcome and thank you for visiting my webpage.I became a Travel Counsellor after a long and distinguished career at two of the UK's leading tour operators and wanting to re-introduce the values of what a tour operator/travel agent should be offering you. Booking a holiday or a business trip is more than a simple retail transaction. It is more important than that to you and it is more important than that to me. It is something that is personal and should be handled with the care and attention it deserves.Being a Travel Counsellor means that we can offer you what you require – it isn’t limited to one supplier or one product, it is a means to be independent and offer you what you want, be that a speedy process, an in-depth discussion about a destination, a hotel or a mode of transport, the most luxury or the best value. Each requirement is different but we are experienced in understanding travel. More often than not you will want to discuss and plan your holidays and business trips over the phone/videocall although I am happy to meet in person too.My own personal travel experience spans approximately ninety countries from the incredibly exotic Maldives and Mauritius (including my own wedding) to the more adventurous India, Sri Lanka, Vietnam, Guatemala and Japan, to the business hubs of New York, Hong Kong and Singapore. So, whether you are looking for a once-in-a-lifetime trip to Australia and New Zealand, your annual winter holiday to the Caribbean, a family holiday to USA or a romantic weekend in Paris there are a multitude of holidays that can be arranged to suit you for your next adventure. As you can probably tell I am passionate about most places I have travelled to (and places still on the to do travel list) but do give me a call and we can even discuss my other favourites that I haven't even mentioned here. I also enjoy documenting my travels in the journals that you can read below along with trying to improve my photography which you can see within them.With all Travel Counsellors, we pride ourselves on the service we provide and the value this brings to our customers. We are all independent, meaning we can provide you with the holiday you require and we can design it to suit your needs and desires. All types of holidays can be catered for from cruises to adventure tours to tailormade holidays to business trips and private tours.It may be an itinerary that you find daunting to put together yourself, or you just want the reassurance of being able to contact someone at any time either before you go or while you are away or it may be that you like to have that feeling of being financially protected or someone to help with giving you good value and inspiration and ideas, we can do all this and more.I very much look forward to hearing from you and discussing your travel plans.

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.

I was lucky enough to find a partner who was also as passionate about travel as I am and we went on a backpacking trip around Asia, Malaysia, Australia, New Zealand, Fiji and America at the age of 20.

    Hi, I’m Amy. Mum to my adventurous two‑year‑old, Ruben, partner to my favourite travel companion, Ben. Travel has shaped so many of our happiest memories, from spontaneous escapes before becoming parents to discovering new places through Ruben’s curious eyes. Becoming a mum has only made my love for travel stronger. For years, the Maldives was my favourite destination. Then Mauritius came along and completely surprised me. That feeling of discovering somewhere that captures your heart is exactly what I want to help create for my clients. I’ve always loved the excitement of planning a trip, but I know not everyone feels the same. Many people simply don’t have the time to research every detail or the confidence to know they’re making the right choices. That’s where I come in. When I discovered Travel Counsellors, I realised how powerful it is to have someone in your corner who listens, understands and handles everything with care. Now I offer that same support to my clients. My approach is personal and completely tailored to you. I take the time to understand what matters most, whether that is relaxation, adventure, family time or a once‑in‑a‑lifetime experience. From the first conversation to the moment you return home, I handle every detail so you can focus on making memories. With full financial protection through ATOL and the Travel Counsellors Trust, you can travel with complete peace of mind. Whether you are dreaming of a far‑flung escape, a family holiday or something totally unique, I am here to make it seamless. When I am not planning holidays, you will usually find me chasing after Ruben, exploring new places as a family or daydreaming about our next adventure. So, let’s turn your travel dreams into reality and discover the world with confidence and ease.

I just adore Spain, which I think started from my childhood from the fabulous family holidays we had but then I went on to study Spanish at School, College and then University where I spent each summer working a full season in the gorgeous sunshine. My Uni Placement was in a Spanish Travel Agency and then my first job after Uni was with Iberia Airlines where I spent 3.5 fabulous year and my career had only just begun. Fortunately for me, my parents have an apartment on the South Coast, so I get to spend a lot of time in Andalucia. Aside from Spain, I am a big skier and have had the pleasure of skiing in the Alps, Pyrenees, Sierra Nevada, Milky Way. I haven’t just restricted myself to Europe, I have been to various US States, UAE, Mauritius, Seychelles, Malaysia, Vietnam, South Africa & the Caribbean.I love a good City Break, a beach holiday, a touring holiday, winter break, a cruise – you name it, I love it. Pinch me trips for meare always my ski trips but I loved Lapland and still get goosebumps from the South African Safari.

    Planning a holiday should be fun, right?If you’ve happened across my page, then I’ve probably come recommended to you (hi!), or you’re going round in circles looking for advice you can trust.I know there’s a million ways to book out there, but I also understand it can be totally over-whelming, time-sapping and infuriating.And whilst saving you from all those admin headaches is a part of what I do, having a Travel Counsellor is also about so much more…Back in 2018, after a decade working for various big names in the travel industry, I decided to take the plunge and put everything I’d learned into starting my own thing.From the off, my little business has been about personal, warm and truly human service. I’m not here for selling and targets, I’m not going to push a certain thing on you because it suits me. I’m small-scale, I know my clients by name, not by booking reference. I’ll find out about you: what you love, what you hate, what’ll make things extra special and then I’ll work to bring it to life, all wrapped up in a level of 24/7 care that you know you can rely on.So, what can I help you with? Well, the world’s your oyster, really. You might have an idea, or just an inkling of the kind of thing you’d like. I’ll take your lead and work in the best way to suit you.First and foremost, I’m a fully ATOL-protected tour operator, meaning I can design you anything and everything with complete financial peace of mind. Whether that’s a city or a beach break, an ocean or river cruise, or a complex multi-centre adventure, I’ll suggest locations, hand-pick hotels and tweak and tailor until it’s just right for you.I’m also an independent travel agent, so, depending on what you fancy, I can help you choose from a wide choice of tried and trusted third party suppliers too. That means I’ll do all the legwork to compare the options, and present you with a whittled down list of what works and why.I’ve found that you can’t have this conversation without talking about price. I’m always completely transparent that while my prices are fair, I’m not here to try and beat online or DIY arrangements where there’s little to no care, service or protection involved. However, with direct relationships with a whole world of hotels, airlines, cruise companies, adventure specialists, experience providers and much more, I’ll work my socks off to get the right thing, at the right budget. If you’re not sure if I can help, please just ask. I’ll always give you an honest answer.Ready to stop reading, and start planning? I’d love to help. I’ll work flexibly around you, so get in touch and we can arrange a time to chat.

I’ll take the time to thoughtfully create a trip that’s tailored to you and your family or friends, leaving you free to concentrate on making memories!Some of my own best holiday memories are the joy of wall to wall sunshine in Portugal, hearing the roar of lions on safari in South Africa, tasting the best pad Thai in Thailand, seeing my 3 children outside all day on the slopes in Norway and feeling like I’m on a movie set in Las Vegas!I’ve appreciated the value of travel since my very first job as a receptionist at the YHA on Oxford Street in London, where I loved meeting people who were travelling for every possible reason! Since then, I’ve enjoyed relaxing holidays as a break from corporate life, been lucky enough to experience the luxury of a first class flight to New York whilst working for British Airways and had fun with my children marvelling at the freedom of a resort, the joy of an all-inclusive buffet and the magic of a private swimming pool. I'm passionate about travel bringing joy and being a force for good in building connections, seeing new perspectives and even improving cultural understanding. It’s a privilege to help people see the world, find their ‘wow’ moments, and enjoy something special.From long before you travel until the moment you return, I’ll help you make the most of your precious time and resources on the holiday that’s right for you. Being part of Travel Counsellors gives me the independence to choose what suits you best from hundreds of different destinations, hotels and experiences, provided by trusted suppliers, and gives you financial security and 24-hour support if anything should not go to plan whilst you are away. I love to talk travel and I'll be available at a time that suits you. I’m looking forward to hearing from you.

They each hold their own budgets, dreams and personalities and I take great care in ensuring that every expectation is exceeded. I take great pride in offering exceptional care and customer service right the way through from our initial contact until after the return from your trip. Meticulous detail is part of every booking. Having worked for some major tour operators and contracting with some of the very best hotels worldwide, my knowledge is excellent. These areas include the Far East, The Maldives and Southern Africa each of which I have had the pleasure of going to many times. However, whether you’re off on a short UK break or looking for somewhere further afield, I also have a great level of worldwide experience. I am personally a very demanding traveller and would offer the same high levels of service to my customers as I would expect to receive.

    Welcome and thank you for taking the time to read thisBeing a Travel Counsellor has been my dream job for many years and I’ve had the privilege to be able to work in the Travel Industry for over 35 years. I remain passionate about what I do and take immense pride in serving my clients to the very best of my ability in order to meet their specific needs and wishes. Overall, I am committed to going the extra mile in order to create the perfect trip to suit their requirements. Getting to know my clients is really important to me, either by phone, Zoom or in person. This enables me to gain a deeper understanding of what is needed to put the perfect holiday together. I work very differently to the High Street and the online companies and am able to work with you at a mutually convenient time but largely at a time which suits you. I also specialise in tailor made itineraries and bespoke holidays. However, I must stress that no enquiry is too small. Being a Travel Counsellor means that I work individually so you only get myself at the end of the phone or email. In support of my personal and focused service, we have a fantastic customer service backing from Travel Counsellors Head Office. This provides the Travel Counsellors 100% financial guarantee in that all holidays are financially secured. It’s a real privilege to work with an award-winning company and for one of the largest travel providers in the UK with 5 star Trust Pilot reviews and having been established over 30 years. Being a Travel Counsellor allows me to work independently with many tour operators, and as we have a trusted and long-standing relationship with many ground handlers all over the world, I can put together those unforgettable holiday moments for you. A key part of my job is to enhance and suggest amazing and awesome moments that will stay in your memories for years to come. A few examples which I’ve worked on include arranging for clients to sit amongst 100,000 king penguins in South Georgia, to ‘live local’ on Lake Titicaca in Peru, to island hop in Indonesia or to go rafting on the Zambezi River in Zambia. I can arrange all of these experiences and so much more. In addition to holiday experiences, I have also worked closely with groups and business travelers over many years. This is an important part of my service and I often work with bespoke needs for travel across a number of continents for both short and lengthy duration trips. I have worked through many of the challenging times which have impacted countries and the travel industry. This includes the impact of 9/11, the Ash Cloud, Tsunamis and of most recently COVID-19 and related Government travel policy decisions. None of us could have imagined the level of disruption on travel which we’ve encountered. I have been able to provide advice on changes to travel, respond to client needs and navigate through the range of often complicated policy restrictions. but being available for my clients allowed me to advise and rearrange around the restrictions in place, giving them the reassurance that they are not alone.I look forward to arranging trips for this year and beyond. It is a pleasure and a privilege to do the job I do. Travel has been a huge part of my life and I would be delighted to hear from you, whatever your travel enquiry. Finally, I am reminded of the words of Saint Augustine: "The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page".I look forward to hearing from you soonThank you

    Hi, my name is Nikki and I am your local Travel Counsellor based in Cuckfield in West Sussex. I have been a Travel Counsellors for over 7 years now, although I have worked within the travel industry for over 25 years (it’s so hard to comprehend how quickly time flies). I have been lucky enough to have worked for a number of different tour operators over the years and have travelled to some truly amazing places, both on business and on holiday. As your personal Travel Counsellor, I am able to provide a unique travel service, using award winning technology to tailor-make holidays, with the support of a world leading, independent travel company. As I work from home, I can speak to you at a time that suits you, even if it is outside normal working hours. The way in which we are booking holidays has changed dramatically over the last 20 years, but the need to tap into expertise and the ability to contact your individual travel consultant with any questions (with no delays or waiting on the phone for hours) is something I have found customers really want - particularly for those with more complex and specialist holidays.I specialise in long haul, tailor-made and luxury travel and am able to create magnificent holidays all over South East Asia, Africa, Australasia, the Americas and around the world. Whether it’s a Tanzanian safari you’re after, a fully escorted tour around Indochina or a leisurely self-drive around the beautiful islands of New Zealand, I can help to create a magical holiday for you by taking away all the pressure and providing valuable and impartial advice on the best places to stay and visit.I have access to some of the best hotel, tour and airline rates in the industry and can also provide piece of mind when it comes to your money as all of the holidays I create are 100% financially protected by either ATOL or the Travel Counsellor Financial Trust. If you book a Travel Counsellors' package with me, you will also benefit from a unique flexibility and free amendments up to 8 weeks before travel. So there really is no need to be concerned about booking in advance.After the blip in 2020-2021, travel has really bounced back, and I'm guessing your desire to travel the world is as great as it's ever going to be so why not give me a try – I pride myself on treating everyone’s holiday as if it was my own and will do my utmost to provide you with the dedicated service you deserve.Nikki
