Naturally all aspects of this would be fully protected, even low cost flights. I believe in honesty and integrity at all times, and won't give you the 'hard sell' on an unsuitable holiday just for the sake of it! If I wouldn't go there myself I'd tell you.

    “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!

    My name is Michael, I’m a Travel Counsellor and I live in Radlett, a commuter village located between Watford and St Albans in Hertfordshire. My family have lived in Hertfordshire since at least the 1600s. That’s probably why I felt the need to escape and see a bit more of the world; travel after all broadens the mind.Sport and travel have always been passions of mine and I have combined the two by arranging and selling skiing holidays for many years and I have also been involved in running cricket and rugby tours to both the UK and Europe.I’ve been in the travel industry for over 30 years and have experienced and enjoyed many different roles so I have a great understanding of what you, the customer wants from every aspect of their holiday.From being an overseas representative in destinations as diverse as Ibiza and Switzerland and contracting hotels, apartments and villas in Cyprus, Turkey, the Canary Islands, mainland Spain, Greek Islands and many, many more fabulous holiday destinations, my main ambition has always been to ensure that everything is right for the customer!I’m often asked what my favourite holiday destination is and it is so difficult to pick just one place from all the great and varied opportunities out there. However here goes with a few favourites: for skiing I love Italy, as much for the food and atmosphere as the skiing, Australia and India are places I must visit again as there is so much more to see. I have a particular soft spot for Cyprus, its history and its people. My favourite cities must include Florence, New York, Lisbon and Sydney.I look forward to helping you visit some of your personal favourites or even better discover your own brand new “dream destination”.

I have also been on most cruise ships. Hello, my name is Michelle Leonard as you can see I really do love travel. I have travelled extensively and can confidently pass on my knowledge to help fulfil your holiday dreams. In 2022 I travelled to Majorca , Morocco , Cyprus to participate in a beautiful Wedding, Malaga City , Chania ( Crete ) Canada visiting Toronto Niagara Falls , Quebec , Montreal and Ottawa and was also very lucky to sail on Regent Seven Seas Voyager with a stay in Rome - what a great year catching up on amended and cancelled trips from the last few years. My favourite place has to be Mauritius - my idea of heaven. Beautiful hotels, beaches, service and standards all in all perfect and a very special destination. I have also been on many cruises both European and in the Caribbean, through the Panama Canal which was a truly amazing experience which I will remember forever. Antigua and Grenada came very close to Mauritius both amazing special destinations. I also love Florida I have been around 15 times so know it very well, I could talk to you about Florida for hours! I became a Personal Travel Counsellor because quite simply I take pride in offering the highest level of personalised customer service to my many clients. I love my job which I think is what has helped me build such a successful business as a Personal Travel Counsellor over the last 20 years. I am proud to be a Travel Counsellor, we offer a great service and huge commitment to our customers and now as a company have a 24 hour duty office so there is always someone there for you as well as myself.I have worked in the travel industry for 39 years now, originally working for two multiples on the high street where I progressed to management levels prior to starting a family. I chose to join Travel Counsellors 20 years ago because they care about their customers, working with state of the art technology and offer fantastic head office support to assist me in my role. I have a huge client base now and most of my customers have become personal friends. They help me by passing my details to their colleagues, friends and family which now means I am busy most of the year and as my children are now 28 and 27 years old and need less attention I have more time though our Grandchildren aged 11 , 4 and 1 do keep me busy. I do love the fact that I can work much more flexible hours to suit my customers' needs as they can contact me at any time of the day or night whichever suits them best whether that be a weekend or an evening.I aim to give the highest possible customer service and to ensure that every travel arrangement meets and better still, exceeds your expectations. Allow me to turn your dream holiday into reality. I really will look after you. The industry changes constantly but a key aspect now in travel is that you are looked after if you need us whilst overseas ....I feel this has brought many clients back to me over the years as there is nothing worse than something going wrong whilst you are away and you have no one to discuss it with, all my clients have my personal mobile number as I do theirs to keep an eye on them whilst they are away.I very much look forward to speaking to you , please feel free to give me a call.

  • Carter Laffan

    0207 125 0009 Croydon

    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.

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.

These are focussed on ensuring there is the maximum possible economic benefit in the destination, and that this is shared as widely as possible. I am also recognised as a South Africa Specialist by South Africa Tourism in London. If you're looking for something a bit more personal and bespoke than what the high street chains and internet offer, and if you like the idea of having a professional look after your travel arrangements, saving you time, hassle and money. please give me a call for a chat - or send a message from the link on my webpage.Best wishesMichael

    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.

    I am an independent travel consultant working with award winning Travel Counsellors, based on the north coast of Cornwall. Travel is more than places to me, it’s about the people you meet, the moments you treasure and the stories you bring home.Having had a keen interest in travel from a young age, this has grown into a career spanning over 30 years in various sectors of the industry, most notably luxury self catering holidays and specialist tour operation - where I spent 10 years curating long haul itineraries for both individuals and groups to South and Central America. I love being a Travel Counsellor because it allows me the time to understand exactly what you’re looking for from your holiday — whether that’s a UK escape or a long-haul adventure. Using my expertise and the latest industry technology, I’ll design a bespoke itinerary just for you, refining it together until it’s exactly right. As part of Travel Counsellors, I have access to a wide network of airlines and trusted travel partners, and being independent, I can tailor every detail to suit your unique requirement, without being tied to specific suppliers. There is no fee for my time, my help in researching your trip is simply part of the service.Once you book, I can take care of many of the pre departure arrangements such as booking airline seats, travel insurance and airport parking. I will personally be on hand to answer any queries or questions you may have about your trip before you travel and you will not be held in call centre queues when you contact me. To give clients complete peace of mind, Travel Counsellors offer 100% financial protection regardless of the type of holiday you book and offer a 24/7 emergency contact whilst you are away - wherever in the world you may be.I can meet clients in person to discuss their holidays and can be available at times to suit you.Throughout my career I have been fortunate to have travelled to many countries, both personally and professionally. I draw on these experiences when creating itineraries for clients, some key ones have been cruising the Galapagos Islands, safari in Kenya, hiking the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu, trekking in the Simien mountains in Ethiopia, spotting jaguars in Brazil, road trips in the USA, Canadian Rockies and New Zealand, seeing the Taj Mahal at dawn and staying in remote lodges in the Amazon rainforest. Since having children our holidays have predominantly been closer to home, but still as rewarding with unforgettable adventures to Lapland, Disneyland, Marrakech and Albania.Growing up in Cornwall and throughout my career, I’ve seen both the positive impact and the challenges tourism can bring to a destination. That’s why I love creating itineraries with care — recommending experiences that support local communities while offering meaningful, authentic moments that enrich your holiday.I would love to help you plan your next adventure, so please do not hesitate to get in touch.

    Our free time with our loved ones is precious, and we need to get it right.During exam revision at university, I spent every lunch break in the local travel shop, browsing the magazines and dreaming of where I would go when I had finished. I completed my degree, travelled for a year, and qualified as an accountant, working in London. But what started as a way to escape my studies grew into a passion for researching and planning travel. As a result, I took extensive training in the Travel Counsellor Academy, and started my own independent travel business in May 2016.I take time to get to know my clients, their travel dreams and their absolute must-haves. I listen to the details of what works for them and what needs to be avoided. I genuinely care that they have the best holidays possible, and that the planning process is as smooth and as fun as it can be.I can help you with travel plans for all worldwide destinations, and all holiday styles. I have travelled extensively, and with great variety, staying in $4 guesthouses in Phnom Penh, and 5* resorts in St Lucia. In 2016 I returned from four years living in Barbados, so I would consider myself an expert on this location, and the surrounding islands. I love to attend and participate in sporting and musical events as I travel. I’ve golfed in Patagonia, dived with sharks in Saba, partied at Coachella festival, and cheered on the Heat in Miami. Not that you need an excuse, but if you want to travel for a specific interest, I look forward to hearing all about it, and building your holidays accordingly.My hours are flexible and I can discuss your travel requirements at a time that suits you, including weekends and evenings. Location permitting (I am based in Sevenoaks), I am happy to meet you face-to-face, or to communicate by skype, email or phone.

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.

    Hi, I'm Scarlett, a Travel Counsellor based in Newcastle upon Tyne.Travel has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. From family holidays growing up to planning my own adventures the moment I could, discovering the world has always felt natural to me. After studying Travel and Tourism as a school leaver, my career initially took me into the legal sector and later higher education administration, where organising corporate and academic travel became part of my day-to-day work.It was there I realised the part I loved most wasn’t the paperwork or logistics, it was crafting the travel itself.In 2021 I stepped into the travel industry professionally and haven’t looked back since. Today I help my clients create travel experiences that are completely personal to them, whether that’s a once-in-a-lifetime honeymoon, a much-needed sunshine escape, or a meaningful bucket-list trip.A big part of my work is helping travellers find options that align with their values. I specialise in sourcing ethical, cruelty-free and inclusive travel, whether that means avoiding animal exploitation experiences, recommending LGBTQIA+ friendly destinations, or finding suppliers who take sustainability seriously.Some of the wonderful trips I’ve helped plan include a bespoke honeymoon to Costa Rica, a dream trip to Minneapolis for a Prince superfan, and countless sunshine getaways to favourites like Tenerife and Benidorm. Personally, Mexico has completely stolen my heart and remains one of my favourite destinations in the Caribbean.I live in Newcastle with my partner Dean and our daughter Lilith. Becoming a parent has given me a whole new appreciation for travel that is both memorable and manageable, especially when life is busy.When you book with me, you’ll have a personal travel expert looking after every detail.

    Travel has always been so much more to me than simply getting from A to B. It is the thread that runs through my life: the thing I work for, dream about and always have on the horizon. I am a passionate believer in the power of “the next trip” to bring joy, connection and something truly special to look forward to. For families, I also see travel as one of the most enriching forms of education for children: a way to open their eyes to different cultures, wildlife, history and landscapes in a way no classroom ever could.As an independent Travel Counsellor, my clients are at the heart of everything I do. I offer a highly personal, concierge-style service: from private transfers and handpicked hotels to immersive experiences and those thoughtful touches that make a holiday feel truly “yours”. Whether you are dreaming of, I take time to understand what matters most to you and design every detail around that.I know that luxury means something different to every person. For some it is barefoot time together on a white-sand beach, for others a meticulously planned family adventure, a once-in-a-lifetime honeymoon, an intimate wine-tasting escape, an exclusive safari or a restorative break after a demanding year. Whatever it means to you, my role is to remove the stress and complexity of planning and to curate journeys that feel effortless, personalised and unforgettable.My own travels began in South Africa, where countless safaris and wine tours sparked a lifelong love of nature, wildlife and wide-open spaces. Since then I have explored much of the world: from the snowy slopes of Scotland and the timeless pyramids of Egypt, to the landscapes of Italy and Portugal, the forests and temples of Bali, the magic of Walt Disney World, and vibrant cities across Europe, Russia and beyond. I have a particular soft spot for islands and beaches, with favourites including Zanzibar, Mauritius, Hawaii, and the Maldives.I am also an avid scuba diver and snorkeller, and some of my most cherished memories are in or under the water: coming face to face with a whale shark in the Red Sea, listening to dolphins in the waters around Zanzibar, drifting alongside green turtles off the coast of Maui, and witnessing the magical glow of bioluminescence on a night-time experience in Tobago. These encounters give me a deep appreciation of how powerful travel can be, and I bring that same sense of wonder to the itineraries I create for my clients.From our first conversation to the moment you return home, I am on hand to guide, support and inspire you, with help just a call or message away while you are away.I would be delighted to work with you to design your next luxury escape and create travel memories you and your family will treasure for years to come.

    With almost 40 years in the travel industry and personal journeys to 58 countries, I bring a depth of experience that only time, curiosity and genuine passion can create. Over the decades I have seen how travel has evolved, and I firmly believe that the most meaningful trips are those that are carefully crafted around you and that leave a positive footprint on the places you visit.Some of my favourite places in the world are South America, Italy and Vietnam, where vibrant cultures, unforgettable food and beautiful landscapes come together so effortlessly. I also have extensive first‑hand knowledge of New Zealand, India and Japan from designing some truly incredible itineraries for my clients, from epic road trips and rail journeys to in‑depth cultural adventures.I specialise in designing bespoke itineraries that go far beyond the standard brochure: trips that reflect your interests, your pace and your dreams. Whether it is a multi‑centre adventure across New Zealand, a Caribbean island‑hopping escape, a culinary journey through Italy, or a once‑in‑a‑lifetime tour of South America or Asia, every detail is thoughtfully considered so that your holiday feels effortless, seamless and truly personal.Responsible travel sits at the heart of everything I do. For me, it is about more than just ticking the “sustainable” box. It is about taking care of both people and planet, choosing experiences and partners that respect local communities, culture and the environment. I believe the best travel memories come from genuine interactions: sharing stories with a local guide, tasting home‑cooked food, supporting small independent businesses, and returning home knowing your visit has had a positive impact.When you travel with me as your dedicated Travel Counsellor, you are not just booking a holiday. You are gaining a trusted expert who listens, advises and supports you every step of the way, using decades of knowledge to create a journey that is uniquely yours.I am looking forward to getting to know you and planning your perfect trip.

    My insatiable wanderlust first began back in 2004 as I stepped barefoot on the sugar white sands of Koh Samet in Thailand. If I close my eyes, I'm right back there in a flash. Since then I've travelled to some of the world's most untouched places, collecting an encyclopedia of knowledge along the way. I've sailed to the remote Indonesian island of Flores to see Komodo dragons and swam in the incredible Kuang Si Falls of Luang Prabang. I've sipped the finest wines in South Africa's Delaire Graff Estate and shopped for spices in India's colourful markets.It’s these life-enriching moments that I love to create for my clients. Being fully independent means it's less about the corporate bottom-line and more about the client experience. Before you book, I spend time getting to really know you - the things you love and anything you loathe. Prefer a window seat on your flight? No problem. Keen to steer clear of crowds? Noted. I'll build a relationship with you that can be likened to a trusted friend, with the back-up of full ATOL financial protection should something go wrong. When it comes to the type of travel I organise, tailormade trips, luxury long-haul, honeymoons and family-friendly holidays are my expertise. For anything else, my network of 2,000+ Travel Counsellors are on hand to help me find the perfect holiday to suit your needs.If this sounds like the type of service you're looking for, I'd love to chat. Call or email me anytime and I'll be in touch!

    Emily Flynn

    01278 618787 Somerset

    I’m Emily and I live in Somerset with my husband, three children, and Rusty the Border Terrier. I specialise in thoughtfully designed, experience-led journeys for families and couples who want their travel to feel meaningful, immersive, and beautifully tailored.My own travel experiences are at the heart of how I plan for my clients. From growing up living abroad and exploring European cities, to travelling through Thailand and Australia, sailing around the Greek islands, and spending extended time working on a ranch in the mountains of Montana, USA, I’ve experienced travel in many different forms. Alongside this, I now regularly design trips to some of my most booked destinations, including the Maldives, the USA, and Greece - giving me a deep, practical understanding of how to shape very different types of journeys, from barefoot luxury and island escapes to road trips, national parks, and cultural exploration. As an animal lover and horse owner, I’m particularly conscious of how travel experiences interact with wildlife, communities, and the natural world. When it’s relevant to your plans, I can guide you towards experiences and partners that take a thoughtful, responsible approach - without ever limiting the kind of travel you want to enjoy.The value of working with a professional travel planner is in the detail - matching you to the right places and experiences for what you’re really seeking. A ranch stay, for example, can mean very different things depending on whether you’re seeking wellness and space to slow down, hands-on horse riding, or food, culture, and connection. Choosing the right fit makes all the difference to how the experience feels.As a mum to three, I also understand how precious time away can be, especially for families balancing busy lives. Holidays are often the moments we look back on most fondly, the space where we reconnect, slow down, and create memories that stay with us for years to come. Whether I’m planning a family adventure, a special celebration, or a once-in-a-lifetime escape, I approach every trip with the same care I’d give my own.My role is to take the weight of planning off your shoulders, so you can enjoy the excitement of travel without the stress. From our first conversation to the moment you return home, I’m there to guide you, support you, and make sure every detail has been thoughtfully taken care of.With Travel Counsellors’ industry-leading partnerships and technology behind me, I’m able to offer a complete, expert service with full financial protection and exceptional aftercare. Between myself and the duty office, you’ll have round-the-clock support while you’re away so you can travel with confidence, knowing help is always there if you need it.Talking travel is my favourite thing! I can make myself available whenever it works for you, whether you’re ready to start planning or just want to explore some ideas. I’d love to hear from you!"Wherever you go becomes a part of you somehow." — Anita Desai "It's not the miles, it's the memories"

    01872722666 Cornwall

    Nestled on Cornwall’s rugged north coast, I share life’s adventures with my husband, a pilot whose routes often take him to the Isles of Scilly and the Channel Islands, and our two children. Surrounded by wild coastline and big skies, I am constantly reminded of the power of a place to inspire, restore and stay with you long after you return home. It is that same feeling I aim to create for my clients, particularly in the destinations that have captured my heart most deeply: New Zealand and Australia.My love of travel began early, shaped by parents with a strong sense of adventure. A round‑the‑world journey took me through the Far East, Australia, America and, most memorably, a month exploring New Zealand by campervan in the depths of winter. Waking up to snow‑capped peaks, empty roads and star‑filled skies ignited a lifelong passion for these two remarkable countries and I have returned to them at every opportunity ever since.Although I specialise in New Zealand and Australia, my experience is firmly rooted in extensive worldwide travel. I have spent four months exploring India and Nepal, immersing myself in their vibrant cultures, landscapes and traditions, as well as spending time across the United States, the Indian Ocean and Europe. This breadth of global experience gives me a wider perspective when designing trips, so even when we are focusing on New Zealand or Australia, your itinerary is shaped with a deep understanding of how to create a truly exceptional long‑haul journey.With over 25 years of experience in the travel industry, I have devoted much of my career to creating extraordinary journeys across New Zealand, Australia and the South Pacific. I have spent extensive time on the ground, from road‑tripping New Zealand’s South Island and discovering hidden wineries and coastal walks, to exploring Australia’s diverse regions: its vibrant cities, reef‑fringed coasts, wilderness lodges and remote outback. This first‑hand knowledge allows me to design itineraries that go far beyond the obvious, weaving together iconic highlights with special places you might never find on your own.I am proud to be accredited as both a ‘100% Pure New Zealand Specialist’ and an ‘Aussie Specialist’, recognition of my deep, up‑to‑date destination expertise. Whether you are dreaming of a self‑drive adventure through New Zealand, a luxury lodge retreat, a family campervan holiday, an island escape on the Great Barrier Reef, or a multi‑stop tour combining Australia, New Zealand and the wider South Pacific, I can offer authentic insight, honest advice and thoughtful recommendations tailored to you.Travel is deeply personal, and I believe your journey should feel as unique as you are. I take the time to understand what truly matters to you: your pace, your interests, your non‑negotiables. From carefully chosen boutique stays and characterful B&Bs to handpicked experiences such as wildlife encounters, wine tastings, scenic flights and guided walks, every detail is considered to create a seamless, enriching and memorable trip.My service goes far beyond simply booking a holiday. You will have my support at every stage, from our first conversation to your return home, and I am on hand while you are away should anything unexpected arise. Your travel plans are fully protected for complete peace of mind, so you can relax and focus on enjoying the journey.There are no call centres or long waits on hold. You will always have a direct line to someone who knows you, understands your plans and genuinely cares about your experience. Whether this is your first long‑haul trip, or a return visit to explore deeper, it would be a pleasure to help you make the most of every moment.If you are ready to start planning your next tailor‑made journey, whether a once‑in‑a‑lifetime adventure, a short break or an inspiring escape in Europe, I would be delighted to chat. Contact me today to begin crafting a journey you will remember for a lifetime.

    Hi, I’m Steven Christie, an independent Personal Travel Counsellor based in Edinburgh.Thank you for taking the time to visit my page. I’m here to help you plan unforgettable travel experiences and tailored holidays that you and your loved ones will treasure for years to come.Travel has always been more than a job for me — it’s been my life for over two decades. With 20 years of aviation experience, including 16 years as an inflight manager for both British Airways and Virgin Atlantic, I’ve gained invaluable insight into the world of travel. I know what to expect onboard and how to make every journey as smooth and memorable as possible.I’ve been fortunate to explore much of the world’s beauty first-hand — from South Africa’s vineyards and the dazzling energy of the Las Vegas Strip, to countless adventures in Orlando’s theme parks, the breath taking views of the Amalfi Coast, the beauty of cherry blossom season in Japan, and the glittering skyline of Shanghai, to name a few. From vibrant cities to tranquil escapes, each destination has given me lasting memories and invaluable insight. I bring this knowledge and passion into every journey I design, so you can relax knowing your dream trip is crafted with care, expertise and attention to detail.My time in the airline industry taught me the importance of exceptional service, attention to detail, and seamless planning. These values now guide how I work with every client. I take the time to get to know you personally so I can design holidays or any travel needs that reflect your unique preferences — whether that’s recommending the best local dining, uncovering hidden gems, or suggesting activities that bring your trip to life.As an independent Travel Counsellor, I offer peace of mind with full financial protection on all bookings, as well as dedicated support before, during, and after your journey. With my experience, up-to-date travel knowledge, and access to a vast range of suppliers, flights, hotels, and experiences, I’m committed to creating stress-free, personalised holidays tailored just for you.No request is too big or too small — so please feel free to get in touch.

    Thank you for visiting my web page.I'm Julie, an independent travel agent based in Beverley, East Yorkshire - a beautiful market town famous for its Minster and racecourse. I'm originally from Sheffield, and married with two daughters. I have over 24 years of travel experience, 13 with a high street travel agent, and will only give you my honest, best advice.I have first-hand knowledge of many exciting destinations and still have many more to see. I have experience of European beaches, especially those throughout Spain, the Canaries and Turkey. I've cruised Mexico, the West Med and Adriatic. I have travelled to the West and East coasts of America - and absolutely love Florida (I can give you the best tips!)I've been to Australia, visited Perth, Adelaide, Sydney and Melbourne, so much to see and do, once returning via Fiji. I have been skiing in Canada, visiting Banff, Jasper, Lake Louise and Vancouver. I have travelled through Italy by rail - visiting Venice, Florence and Rome - and driven the Amalfi Coast ,Sorrento, an absolute must! I have also been to many of the Caribbean islands. Even a Sound of Music bicycle tour in Salzburg, essential for any film fan. In February this year i was lucky enough to visit India, travelling through northern India to see Shimla, Dharamshala, and the ceremony of the guards between India and Pakistan. We flew down to Jaipur, then onto Ranthambore to see the Tigers then onto the beautiful Taj Mahal. This year brings a few lovely trips , Lake Garda, River cruise along the Rhine, Malta , Vienna and Zurich...with an overnight train, this will be interesting. I love football, and have supported Sheffield United for many years, unfortunately relegated this season, lets see what the 24/25 season brings. Bramall Lane is my second home. My bucket list included Hong Kong which I visited eight years ago. It was fabulous and lived up to my expectations. Next on the list is South America, Sri Lanka and the Maldives., possibly 2025 ( obviously inbetween my football matches) I'm very passionate about all things travel and will always ensure you get the very best service and attention at all times as if it was my own holiday.If you need someone who will take great care for your holiday from beginning to end, you need look no further.
