Hi, I’m Louis – your personal Travel Counsellor. With over five years’ experience in the travel industry, I specialise in creating luxury holidays for families and couples who want something truly special. My expertise lies in destinations such as Dubai, the Indian Ocean and Asia, where I’ve developed in-depth knowledge to design seamless, unforgettable trips tailored to each client. Travel has always been a huge part of my life. I’ve been fortunate enough to travel extensively, including spending time living in both Australia and America, and I continue to explore the world whenever I can. From travelling around Australia to returning to Dubai time and time again, my personal experiences allow me to offer honest advice and first-hand insights. What began as a lifelong passion has grown into a career I genuinely love—helping others plan incredible journeys is something I find incredibly rewarding. What I enjoy most about my role is getting to know my customers and understanding what really matters to them. No two trips are the same, and I take pride in finding holidays that truly suit each individual or family. Helping my clients achieve their travel dreams is a privilege, and I’m proud to have built my business from the ground up through trust, care and attention to detail. When you book with me, you’ll receive a highly personalised, concierge-style service. I’m personable, reliable and available 24/7 to support you before, during and after your trip. I’m flexible in how I work—whether that’s face-to-face meetings, phone calls or messages—and I’ll always tailor my service around your needs. Using Travel Counsellors’ world-class systems, trusted relationships and full financial protection, I strive to find you the perfect holiday with complete peace of mind. I would be delighted to assist with your enquiry and help you make the most of your travels, just as I have done.

Hello, I’m Louise, and I chose a travel career because I have always believed that our most joyful memories are created by leaving behind the day to day and being free to explore. It’s a huge privilege to be able to provide this happiness to my customers by working hard to fully understand their specific requirements and tailor their dream trip! **Why work with me? ** After several years spent travelling and working abroad, I developed a love of learning languages and exploring cultures. I like to get off the beaten track, absorb what a place and its people are really like, and then share this know-how with my clients. I also love to go a step further and do the little things that others don’t, like booking good spots in restaurants using my Spanish, French and Portuguese! Above all, I will always endeavour to meet or chat with you to fully understand your unique requirements so I can provide a variety of holiday options that really hit the mark. If it is not right first time, I will fine tune the search to meet your needs until I find the very best trip for you. ** How I like to work with you** I run my travel business from my home in Stockport and love to meet customers face to face whenever possible, or virtually for locations outside of Greater Manchester and the UK. I take a personal approach, so expect lots of questions aimed at understanding exactly what kind of holiday you want! What I really enjoy is getting to know people and their families so that I can take care of them and ensure they have a wonderful experience. This means I can then grow my business by asking for referrals based on doing an excellent job. ** 24/7 care and financial protection ** Travel Counsellors is a globally recognised, independent travel company offering complete financial protection (ATOL Certification) and 24/7 back-office support should you require this, from the moment of booking through to your return home. Over time, the company has gained invaluable experience of navigating major challenges, such as airline collapses, volcanic eruptions and Covid cancellations, always ensuring the customer comes first and removing the need for you to wait on never-ending calls to customer service lines! You will also have access to all the details of your holiday, as well as important travel updates and payment facilities, in the TC travel app. The app also acts as a handy record and reminder of the detail of all your trips abroad. ** Let’s connect! ** Whatever your holiday plans are, I would love to meet you and further explain the value I can add and the unique support I provide. I will save you time and ensure you get the holiday you want by drawing on both my own experience and that of my 1,900+ Travel Counsellors colleagues who are specialists in every location. Please drop me a line or send me a message at the contact details below. See you soon!

Hi, I'm Suvi, your personal Travel Counsellor with over a decade of experience in the Hospitality and Travel industry. I am definitely happiest when exploring the world or helping others do the same. After years of working in a high street travel agency, I decided to take the plunge and become a home-based Travel Counsellor. Why? So I have the freedom to create truly personal, stress-free holidays that are as exciting to plan as they are to take.I’ve explored the world from both ends of the travel spectrum - whether it’s sleeping on night buses through Vietnam, or sipping cocktails at ultra-luxurious resorts in the Maldives and Dubai.

I'm here to take the stress out of travel planning and create a trip that's tailored to you.My Travel Specialities:- Australia: During my 2 years there, I worked in luxury hotels and venues and travelled when I could in my own car. 40,000km later, I'd driven through every mainland state, camped under the stars and fallen in love with the diverse landscapes - from the vibrant cities, to the breathtaking outback.- Disney World Orlando: I spent a year working in the most magical place on Earth! Which means I know a few secrets and still have great relationships with people on the ground, including incredible VIP Tour Guides who can look after you while you're there.- Fly-Drive Adventures: The Florida Keys are my top pick for a relaxed, yet adventurous drive. Plus, a drive that I'll never get bored of recommending - The Canadian Rockies. Whether it's winding through the mountain roads, or relaxing on a luxury train and taking in the views. I love helping my clients explore stunning scenery at their own pace.- Adventure Holidays: I’ve swam with whale sharks in the Philippines, hiked up a volcano in Indonesia for sunrise and explored Madagascar on an adventure tour. If your dream is off the beaten track, I'd love to hear about it!Between my own experiences and those within my TC community, I can offer those unique, first-hand hints and tips for almost every destination, that you can't find elsewhere.Whether you’re dreaming of an adventure-packed getaway, a magical family holiday, or a relaxing beach escape, I’ll make sure you are looked after from the moment of your enquiry, to the day you return home.With the backing of the Travel Counsellors brand, I have access to thousands of amazing suppliers and you get full ATOL financial protection.So, let’s chat and create a trip that’s as unique as you are!

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.

From the minute you send me your enquiry and if you then book I am available until you return home from your holiday.What do you find most stressful about booking your holidays?If it’s the time it takes or not knowing where to start then if you contact me you have the luxury of not having to trawl through hundreds of brochures, spend time sitting in the travel agents or endlessly searching the internet. You can either call or e-mail me, or if local I am happy to meet for a coffee to discuss your requirements. This will save you precious time that you can then spend doing what you enjoy.Am I more expensive? - No - so please contact me to find out more.If you want to take the next step then please do not hesitate to contact me and we can start the process of finding you your dream holiday.Thank you

I chose an exciting and interesting career 40 years ago. Originally I managed a couple of high street agencies before becoming a Travel Counsellor in 1996. Being a Travel Counsellor has enabled me to visit some fantastic places. It's amazing to be able to pass on this knowledge when helping others to book their ideal holiday. Be it for business or leisure I can suggest destinations and hotels to suit your budget. Working directly with hoteliers and tour companies around the world I can create bespoke itineraries suited to your needs. I love arranging something a little different 'off the peg' itineraries. I've had a flurry of bespoke safari holidays recently, all of which I am told were amazing! I've also had the pleasure of helping a few 'solo' travellers which is great. There are lots of people in the same situation. Why stay at home, just go and make new friends on holiday.I have travelled extensively around the Med, USA and Canada, to name a few. It was in Lake Tahoe that I first learned to ski, and have since been to Italy, Austria and more recently Canada, so if you like something a little more exhilarating I can offer first hand advice. These days my holidays are often spent in Kalkan. I love the laid back pace of life and the local people are wonderful.I've had the privilege over the last few years of arranging a number of weddings and honeymoons which have been a great success! A wonderful start to married life!I had lots of holidays before I had my children but I am blessed to have had some fantastic holidays with them too, they're just a lot different. Pleasing them makes the difference between a wonderful holiday and one you would rather forget! Time spent with our families and loved ones is precious. We work hard all year round and deserve the best holiday possible to look forward to.Being a Travel Counsellor for almost 30 years has given me the best balance between home life and work. We all go to work to provide ourselves and our families with a good standard of living, but I am fortunate to enjoy my job so much that I never get the Monday morning blues! I am always keen to talk about travel to anyone that will listen! I pride myself that my clients come back to me year after year and I love to hear from them when they return from their holidays to let me know what a wonderful time they've had.

Hi, I’m Charlotte and I am a Travel Counsellor living in North London with my husband and two children.I have had the pleasure of working in the travel industry, gaining over 10 years experience. I began my travel career working on the high street as a trainee travel advisor, progressing to Assistant Manager and then acting Branch Manager, working in various locations throughout UK.My passion for travel has given me a great opportunity to visit some amazing destinations and I would love to share my experiences with you. I have been fortunate to visit some inspiring travel locations such as, Austria, Switzerland, New York, The Caribbean, Mexico, Costa Rica, Italy, Spain, Greece, Turkey, Cyprus, Canaries, Balearics, Gambia, India, Egypt, Morocco, Seychelles, Thailand and the magical Euro Disney.I have zip lined through the treetops of Costa Rica’s rainforest, had an incredible adventure travelling through Thailand, visited the mythical Mayan ruins in Mexico, skiing in Austria and Switzerland, and made magical memories with my children watching their favourite Disney characters come to life at Euro Disney. Whether you’re after an all inclusive holiday, last minute deal or family holiday there’s an array of breaks on offer but, with our lives being increasingly busy, booking a holiday – and getting the best deal can feel like a daunting task. You could easily spend weeks searching the most suitable options, jotting down the best places to visit, trying to figure out where you’d most like to go. Sound exhausting? My role as an independent travel counsellor is to help you keep the holiday planning as stress free as possible, and don’t forget that my expert travel advice is only a phone call away. I will remain your point of contact throughout the whole booking process. I’ll be working from home, which means I’m available at a time that suits you, including evenings and weekends.As a Travel Counsellor I have access to the high street tour operators, thousands of hotels, flights and experiences that affords me the flexibility to tailor make your dream holiday or build a bespoke package at a competitive price, whatever your requirements might be and at no extra cost. I have head office support and over 1800 other Travel Counsellors around the world who share their destination knowledge.Whatever you choose, you can relax knowing your money is 100% financially protected either by Atol or the Travel Counsellor financial trust, offering the best financial protection in the industry.

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.

My experiences began early. My Dad started his own travel business in the 1970s and I've been absorbed by the subject ever since. I went down another road for a while – a degree in accountancy, a Masters in IT – but the family business was way more interesting. I've never looked back. Travel has so many benefits. I'm proof of that, and have been lucky to see so many countries, cultures, resorts and… experiences. After more than twenty years in the industry, I've been running my own business since 2015. Edinburgh is my home.Please feel free to have a nosey around my website for some inspiration! www.gillianstewartholidays.com

Hi, I'm Sarah. I live in Widnes, Cheshire, with my husband and the youngest of our adult children.Travel has been my obsession since 1992, when 20‑year‑old me and my future husband took our first independent trip abroad: across the Atlantic to Florida. Instantly hooked on travelling, we quickly followed this with holidays to Mexico, Thailand and a Grand Tour of Italy, and we have visited over 40 different countries together since.I love travel because of the awesome experiences it can offer: walking on the Nigardsbreen Glacier in Norway; riding Flight of Passage in Walt Disney World; joining the pilgrims in Lhasa's Jokhang Temple; following the Iguaçu Falls trail in Brazil: all moments etched into my memory forever.In 2017, after 25 years successfully organising our own adventures, I started a new chapter in life by joining Travel Counsellors. Now, as a full-time travel professional, my mission is to share my knowledge and expertise to help you go beyond the average holiday and embark on extraordinary journeys, creating your own cherished memories.I specialise in putting together personalised touring holidays to all corners of the planet. I go beyond the basics of flights and accommodation to create complete itineraries that incorporate not‑to‑be‑missed attractions and under‑the‑radar experiences, all underpinned by my detailed pre‑travel advice and in‑resort support.Since that first trip in 1992 I have visited Orlando many times, and it is safe to say that I have become a Disney fanatic! I know the parks like the back of my hand, and I have lots of insider information and tricks to share. As part of my service, I provide a personalised day‑to‑day plan which helps minimise queuing and turns what could be an overwhelming holiday into the most enjoyable and memorable trip ever.As a Travel Counsellor, I manage my own business from home, so you have direct access to me at a time to suit you. I use award‑winning technology to connect with 1000s of trusted global suppliers and, because I am not tied to specific companies or products, I can use my expertise to craft the perfect holiday for you.I offer exceptional attention to detail, the best financial protection in the industry, and 24/7 worldwide emergency telephone support, ensuring that a trip booked with me is straightforward, seamless and stress‑free.Get in touch and let me work with you to plan the best possible experience for you and your loved ones.

It does not matter where you’re thinking of as I can help with any destination, such as the Indian Ocean, Vietnam, Thailand, the Maldives, USA or Caribbean islands like St. Lucia, Antigua and Barbados.Family holidays are also a speciality of mine. Whether that’s a half term jaunt across the channel to Disneyland Paris or a holiday of a lifetime to Orlando or beyond.I will enjoy the challenge of finding the best holiday to suit all your needs whether it is shopping, cultural or relaxing on a beach or even just flights to visit family and friends.

Hi I’m Simon, also known as ‘TK’, a very obvious nickname that has stuck with me from my years spent in the military. I am a Travel Counsellor, and after a life of living in many towns and countries, I now live in a small West Yorkshire village located between Pontefract and Wakefield. When time and weather allow, I enjoy a ride-out on my motorbike through the beautiful Yorkshire Dales.My passion for travel stems from my work which has always had a significant travel element, and I have lived in Europe, Scandinavia and Hong Kong with shorter stays stretching all the way from Canada, through the Balkans to the Middle East. A regular and enjoyable feature of my life has always been helping friends and family organise their travel, and now I am building a travel business doing the very thing that I am passionate about, travelling.I chose to join Travel Counsellors because of their ethos of personal service and the genuine care that is taken in arranging all aspects of our clients individual travel arrangements. For me, this is the absolute standout feature of the business, and the past couple of years has shown just how important it can be to have the right travel professional when you need them. When problems do happen you can be confident that you will deal directly with me, your personal Travel Counsellor.With a passion for food, culture and architecture, I enjoy discovering some of the less well known destinations, whether by plane, train, hire car or motorbike. So, if you fancy white water rafting in Bosnia, ice fishing in Finland, camping under the stars in Namibia, or perhaps trying some street food in Oaxaca on your way to dive in Belize, then please give me a shout and we can make it happen. So, whether you are thinking about a once in a lifetime trip, something fabulous and high end, a multi-centre itinerary or perhaps a fabulous cruise, let me save you some of your most precious resource; your time, and we can have a chat and source some exciting options for you.Thanks and I hope to hear from you soon.

Hi, my name is Heather and I live in Standish, Wigan with my husband and our two children. I’m an independent travel consultant, creating bespoke itineraries to dream destinations. I have over 18 years’ experience working in the travel industry as long haul cabin crew for Virgin Atlantic, a career which afforded me the opportunity to travel all over the world. Having a young family and a husband working overseas, unfortunately put an end to my globe-trotting career, however I have recently put my travel knowledge and experience towards my business as a travel counsellor, allowing me to plan and organise your holiday at a time that suits you. Throughout my career in the travel industry, I would always take pride in providing outstanding customer service with acute attention to detail to ensure my customers always received a unique experience. This mindset is at the very heart of my business. I have travelled extensively with my work and also with family and friends from exploring destinations such as Borneo, Mexico, Australia, the Caribbean and Canada to the bright lights of New York, Las Vegas and Paris. I visit Dubai frequently and love to ski in the French alps as often as I can. My children adore all things Disney and Universal which is where we have spent numerous family holidays. Last year we extended our Floridian trip with a road trip to the Florida keys and Miami. Last year, I was fortunate enough to tick off a big bucket list trip on board the world famous Orient Express, travelling in opulent style from Venice to Paris was truly the trip of a lifetime. Being a Travel Counsellor enables me to provide a tailor made travel concierge service to my clients utilising first-hand knowledge of a variety of destinations, providing both value and peace of mind for the holiday you want. I am entirely self-employed which permits me to be available when my clients need me. Whether that’s in the evening or over the weekend and you will never have to communicate with a chat bot or a call centre, I will be there for you every step of the way, from planning your trip to answering any queries you may have along the way. I can arrange bespoke multi-destination itineraries, car hire, lounge passes, attraction tickets and much, much more. All that’s left for you to do is pack your case! Being a member of the Travel Counsellor family means I have connections to hundreds of suppliers including all major tour operators as well as smaller independent suppliers which can’t be booked online. Having the backing of Travel Counsellors also means all holidays are 100% ATOL protected, clients have 24 hour access to a support team should any unexpected problems happen in resort and all payments are kept in trust until you return from your holiday. For me, creating your perfect itinerary is more than just booking a holiday, its creating memories and experiences for you and you loved ones to cherish for a lifetime. So whether you’re looking to book a city break, a road trip or something completely off the beaten track, contact me today. It will be my pleasure to make your dream holiday a reality. I look forward to talking with you soon. Heather

Hi, I’m Greg — a Travel Counsellor based in Hertfordshire, and travel truly is my passion.With over 27 years’ experience in long-haul leisure and corporate travel, I specialise in creating tailor-made itineraries to every corner of the globe.

Clients often ask me for my favourite destination — an impossible choice! Each place offers something unique: from swimming with manta rays in the Maldives to sea kayaking in Antarctica; quad biking across the Namibian dunes to photographing polar bears in the Arctic; trekking in Nepal to micro-lighting over Australia. If you want to go there, chances are I’ve been — and first-hand expertise will always beat hours spent scrolling online!As part of the new generation of smart-workers, I can dedicate my time fully to your needs. My goal is simple: to exceed your expectations.

I started showing the world to my daughter from a young age — by six, she had already visited 40 countries! This experience has made me something of an expert in family holidays, though I’m equally at home planning honeymoons, cruises, USA road trips, luxury Indian Ocean escapes, adventures across Australia or New Zealand, Asian explorations, South American highlights, or European city breaks. The world is a big place — and I know it well.Great trips don’t just happen; they’re crafted. Let me take care of the planning so your next journey is truly unforgettable.Feel free to contact me during office hours, evenings, or at a time that suits you.

Hi, my name is Sarah and I am your Travel Counsellor based in Highgate, North London. I have a young family but still love to travel and I have a passion for organising everything from bespoke long haul and short haul holidays to flights only or a few nights in a hotel.I specialise in Luxury Travel: Tailor-made... Family Holidays… Honeymoons... Ski... Weddings... Disney Holidays... Groups... City Breaks... Australia… Florida... New York... Dubai... Mexico.... The Caribbean… Las Vegas... Mauritius... Africa… Europe... India.... the list goes on!I help create memorable trips for my clients. By taking the time to get to know you personally I will build a detailed picture of the places you like to visit and the things you love to do on holiday, allowing me to truly tailor-make your trip.I provide a personal service which is simply not available when booking your travel online. Client satisfaction is tremendously important to me and I pride myself on personal care, treating every holiday as if it were my own and going the extra mile for my clients. You will always speak to me and with flexible hours I am available at times to suit you, including weekends.I know how difficult it can be travelling with children and I can advise how to make your trip go smoothly and help with making things easier on arrival. My personal service will take away those doubts we all have on going somewhere new.

Imagine having a travel expert in your corner who treats your holiday with the same care and precision as a world class performance. That is what I offer. When you work with me, every detail of your trip is thoughtfully choreographed around you, from the moment you start dreaming of going away to the moment you arrive home.My journey began as a professional figure skater, performing worldwide and for more than a decade at sea aboard luxury cruise ships. I hold a First-Class Honours degree in International Tourism Management and Marketing, worked with over 60 nationalities, visited 65 countries and islands, explored 4 Wonders of the World (and counting) and experienced around a third of the globe first hand. These experiences have given me an insider’s understanding of what truly exceptional travel feels like. With 23 years of experience in luxury hospitality, entertainment and client management, I bring a unique blend of professional discipline, creativity and genuine care to every journey I design.I am deeply passionate about personalised service, something I am proud to say aligns with the core values of the Travel Counsellors philosophy: putting people at the heart of every trip. I have seen how generic, one size fits all itineraries can leave travellers underwhelmed, and I am driven to change that by creating truly bespoke journeys that reflect each client’s personality, pace and preferences. Whether it is luxury transport, breath-taking scenery, cultural immersion or a sense of adventure, I believe the journey itself is just as important as the destination. I bring an eye for detail, a dedication to high quality guest experiences in luxury settings and a warm, service focused approach to every itinerary I craft.If you are looking for a travel professional who combines global experience, industry insight and genuine passion for tailoring trips around you, lets get our skates on and plan your next unforgettable escape together, the TC way.

Planning a holiday should be exciting, not stressful. That’s where I come in. With years of experience in the travel industry and access to an extensive network of over 2000 travel counsellors worldwide, I am here to make your dream trip a reality. Whether you're looking for a relaxing beach retreat, an adventurous safari, or an unforgettable city break, I have the insider knowledge to make it happen seamlessly.Traveling to exotic destinations can come with its own set of challenges and navigating travel logistics can be complex. You might be surprised by some of the details that can make or break a trip. Did you know that: In countries like Italy and France, hotel rooms often don’t include tea and coffee facilities as standard? Or that many hotels in the Hawaii charge resort fees payable upon arrival, something most people aren’t aware of when booking online? In Botswana, for example, many safari camps have private landing strips that aren’t listed on online booking sites, making it difficult to arrange flights without expert help. In Dubai, hotels often expect children to share beds with their parents unless an additional roll-away bed is requested in advance. And if you’re heading to South Africa for a safari, there are specific clothing restrictions to ensure you don’t disturb the wildlife. Long layovers can be an opportunity rather than an inconvenience—airports like Singapore Changi and Istanbul offer free city tours for transit passengers, a perk that many travellers are unaware of.These are the kinds of insights that make all the difference—and why having a travel expert by your side is invaluable.For those seeking unique experiences, I can help you discover unforgettable moments you might not find in a standard guidebook.

Hello, I’m Sally and I love my job designing bespoke travel plans for my leisure and business clients. Why use a Travel Counsellor? Are you trying to avoid the standard ‘package deals’ and create your own special holiday experience? But you’re too busy to spend precious hours searching comparison sites, only to end up even more confused by all the deals on offer. Using a Travel Counsellor is the sensible option if you prefer to benefit from the expertise and experience that working with an accomplished professional brings. Planning your holiday should be full of excitement – not a stressful slog – and that’s why I’m here. What you get You don’t have the time to research, negotiate and finalise all the different elements of your travel arrangements. I simplify the process for you and manage the entire journey; from actively listening to your unique requirements, to handing over your finalised travel pack. I save you the time and stress, so you can enjoy the anticipation of your trip knowing that everything’s taken care of. Everything is bespoke It’s your holiday, your business trip, so your priorities and preferences are our starting point. Perhaps you know precisely what you want, or maybe you have a more general idea of ‘something different’ and would like some inspiration and guidance to the specifics. I combine my 20 years’ industry experience, the latest technology and access to over 400 global suppliers to design your perfect holiday or business trip. Every little detail makes a big difference Seamless, stress free travelling is the result of efficient organisation and meticulous attention to detail.

People’s journeys are often driven by similar reasons – wedding, honeymoon, family holiday, ‘big’ birthday or anniversary celebrations – but everyone’s experience is unique. I specialise in more complex travel arrangements, including; long haul, long duration holidays (over two weeks), trips requiring different modes of transport and ‘split components’ when clients stay at multiple destinations during the same holiday.

Hi everyone and welcome to my personal Travel Counsellors webpage! Fun fact: loading this up is your first step towards creating lifelong memories and the best holidays that you've ever been on.That's a pretty big claim and I'm sure there were a few eyes being rolled and some sceptical tutting, but helping you experience things that stay with you forever is why I started on this journey, it's my passion and what all of the Travel Counsellors team and suppliers fully buy in to. Caring about you and your travel companions more than you ever thought a travel agent or tour operator possibly could is what makes the business viable. If you're the kind of person that loves to research, plan & book everything themselves then why not challenge me to see if I can do better? If you don't know where to start, where you want to go, or even what a passport is then I can help with all of that. Use my expertise as little or as much as you want, and if I don't know the answer then I'll ask one of the thousands of colleagues or suppliers I have that are living, working & travelling all across the world. That's the great thing about being a Travel Counsellor - I'm totally independent. You're all different, with unique personalities and things that make you tick so I can use that to match your desires up with the perfect holiday. Remember that whatever your budget, whatever your circumstances, whatever you class as luxury, I will create trips that are for YOU at amazing value. I can create your two-week summer beach holidays, city breaks, honeymoons, cruises, stag/hen parties, road trips, safaris, back-packing, Kilimanjaro climbs, a hotel in Newport for a random FA Cup 3rd round tie and everything in between. However, if it's Disney/Universal/Orlando related then I'll be extra excited on your behalf.What about financially, can you trust me as your Travel Counsellor? Absolutely. Customer funds are held in a trust and we only work with suppliers that agree to be paid once you're home. If things aren't delivered then no ifs, no buts, your money is paid back. Packages are ATOL protected and when Covid-19 hit, guess which company was voted best by MoneySavingExpert for how they dealt with their customers during the pandemic? Travel Counsellors, and by some margin.I could type all day about what sets Travel Counsellors apart, and if you have any other questions about the business then please get in touch. Now a little bit about me. I love to be methodical and plan everything. If a spreadsheet can be made to assist then you can bet your bottom dollar I'll be creating one. This mentality has been fully invested in becoming a Travel Counsellor and should give you the confidence that each part of your itinerary is there for a very well-considered reason. In my spare time I operate a personal chauffeur service for my two wonderful kids to ensure they never miss any of their activities. You may hear me question how often the car needs filling with diesel but watching them train and play for their grassroots teams is probably my 'happy place'. As a family, we love to travel, anything from a Spanish all-inclusive, Orlando theme parks or to sporting events and gigs. We recently transformed a room within our house into a pub including a big screen, memorabilia and dart board where we spend a lot of time with our friends whilst losing to our 10-year old at darts with ever increasing regularity. My contact details can be found on this page and I can make myself available whenever suits. Want to talk holidays after you've put the kids to bed, not a problem. Fancy meeting for a brew and cake whilst going over your requirements - champion! Let's do this.

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.

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

Hello and welcome to my Travel Counsellors web page, my name is Juli and I live in Clayton-Le-Woods, Lancashire. I am married with two grown up children.I have always loved to travel and wanted to be a travel agent since I was at school. I joined a high street travel agency not long after leaving full time education and spent twelve happy years there. I love everything about travel from the initial planning to the jetting off, reaching the destination and finally enjoying the holiday.As well as visiting the popular destinations across Europe I have loved travelling to various other destinations including Los Angeles and New York, Africa and over to the gorgeous stunning island of Bali, a road trip around California, Nevada, and Arizona taking in the sites of Las Vegas, Grand Canyon, Death Valley, Yosemite and San Francisco - definitely a bucket list trip. I have also experienced the hustle and bustle of Hong Kong, being completely chilled on the island of Jamaica and my new favourite destination the Maldives - such a beautiful destination with so many different islands to choose from, what is not to love.I hope that my knowledge and enthusiasm may help you plan and take your next holiday. I understand that your time is valuable and would like to take the pressure off you by searching for your perfect holiday whether this is a family trip around the UK or overseas, a cruise or a bucket list destination. I am based from my home which provides me with the flexibility to chat at a time that suits you, including evenings and weekends, so please do not hesitate in giving me a call and allow me to help you with any aspect of your travel arrangements.Why book through Travel Counsellors?

My name is Muriel Morgan and I am an independent travel agent in Slamannan. I joined Travel Counsellors in 2005 and before that I was employed by Thomas Cook. I joined Travel Counsellors as I wanted to concentrate on giving my customers the highest possible levels of personal service and independent travel advice.As your own Travel Counsellor I can use our award winning technology and my personal expertise to tailor make exactly the right holiday to suit your needs. Rather than selling you a standard tour operator package, I can quickly search through hundreds of different flight, accommodation and transfer alternatives to find something that suits your needs exactly. Quite often this means I can build you a bespoke holiday at a better price than the standard holiday package you might get elsewhere.Travel Counsellors recognises that not everyone is free to discuss their travel arrangements during the working week. My company’s award winning technology enables me to work from home and means you can contact me at times when most other travel agents are unavailable, including evenings up to 11pm and weekends.I love holidays and have been very lucky to travel extensively all over the world. I have visited Spain, Turkey, France, Portugal, Bulgaria, Iceland, Greece, Malta & Gozo to name a few. I have also visited Australia and New Zealand multiple times, stopping off in various countries like Dubai, Singapore & Bali. I have experienced various cruises including Mediterranean, Caribbean, South Pacific & the Emirates which are a fabulous way of seeing more than one place and can be really good value for money. I have also experienced a skiing holiday to Banff in Canada and found Cuba, Mexico, Jamaica, Dominican Republic and Grand Cayman which are all really interesting holiday destinations. My first trip to Egypt took me to Sharm el Sheikh in November 2004 and I was so impressed I returned again a number of times. For non-swimmers it is excellent, as you only need to walk out into the sea about knee deep and you can look down into the beautiful clear turquoise water and see an array of fish and coral in every colour imaginable. Ive visited many destinations in the USA including Las Vegas, Miami, Los Angeles, Kentucky & Florida. European city breaks have also played a part in my travels & Ive been lucky to have visited Barcelona, Paris, Amsterdam & Warsaw to name a few. In 2025 I travelled to Australia, Switzerland, Salou, Vancouver, Frankfurt & Yas Island in Abu Dhabi. All very different experiences which have given me great insights into these amazing destinations that I can now share with my clients.I can help you arrange any part of your travel arrangements – so whether you need a flight to Barcelona or a last minute holiday to Florida I can help.

Travel has been a central part of my life for as long as I can remember. My own adventures began at the age of four, with magical family holidays to Orlando and journeys across US states such as Georgia and Texas. As I grew older, travel became even more ingrained in my world especially when I was fortunate enough to explore incredible places like Colorado, New York City and Australia during work trips. Now, as a busy mum of two wonderful children, I want to make the most of every school holiday and long weekend, creating treasured memories for us all. With most of my career spent in technology sales, I’m genuinely delighted to bring that experience to my work as a Travel Counsellor. The advanced systems at my disposal make it easier than ever to create, tailor, and seamlessly manage memorable holidays for my clients, all presented through our innovative myTC app. This technology allows me to focus on what really matters providing excellent customer service, ensuring you enjoy a smooth, enjoyable experience from our very first conversation.

Welcome to Travel Counsellors and thanks for visiting my page.I’m based in Tonbridge, Kent and I absolutely love travel, however, I can fully appreciate that booking your holiday can be time consuming, frustrating, stressful and the choice can be overwhelming; which is where I come in.My travel has taken me all over the world, with the most recent trip being a week in Sri Lanka. Last year I had a fabulous two-month tour of Japan, New Zealand and French Polynesia. Other favourite destinations in the last few years have been Antarctica (yes, it was amazing!), Costa Rica, Singapore and the Seychelles. I have had the privilege of spending a year in Australia and three months travelling in South America, visiting Argentina, Chile, Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador (including the Galapagos) and Colombia. I combined backpacking with five-star hotels, trekked to Machu Picchu and boated down the Amazon - incredible experiences that will stay with me forever. I try to learn a few words everywhere I go and love to experiment with the local food, although being vegetarian, that has sometimes been slightly disastrous (especially in Japan!)I put my knowledge and experience into planning your perfect trip – whether that’s a weekend away in the UK, to a week in the sun, to the trip of a lifetime; let me take care of it to get it tailored just for you. I am an independent travel adviser and I want to get it right for each and every one of my clients, so there’s no hard sell.As well as benefitting from my expertise, you can rest assured in the knowledge that your booking will have full financial protection of Travel Counsellor’s unique Financial Trust, as well as being ATOL protected.

Hi, I’m Becky, your personal Travel Counsellor.I’m based in Walkern, Hertfordshire, where I live with my husband, daughter and our dog. Travel and fitness are my biggest passions, and I love nothing more than combining the two: think sunrise hikes, mountain summits, and active adventures balanced with a touch of luxury and relaxation.I also love a challenge, especially when it means raising money for causes close to my heart. In September 2025 I completed a summit of Mount Toubkal in Morocco in support of Reuben’s Retreat, and this year I have signed up for a midnight marathon in April to raise funds for our local hospice in Letchworth. These experiences reflect how I travel too: with purpose, determination and a big dose of heart.Recent travels have taken me from husky sledding through snowy forests in Finland and exploring the cities of Sweden and Paris, to soaking up the sun in Turkey, Ibiza and Crete, and setting sail on a Disney cruise to Belgium. I’ve also hosted a group trip to Morocco, hiked the breathtaking High Atlas Mountains, and summited Mount Toubkal, the highest peak in North Africa. It was such a highlight that I am planning to host another group trip there again. Closer to home, I have enjoyed time in Ireland, Dubai, the Lake District, Norfolk and cruising on Independence of the Seas.As you can probably tell, I truly live and breathe travel, and I bring that same energy, care and curiosity to every itinerary I design.I am passionate about creating all styles of holidays: • Relaxing beach escapes where you can fully switch off • Luxury, long-haul adventures and tailor-made itineraries • Family and multi-generational trips that keep everyone happy • Ocean and family cruises with plenty of built-in fun • Culturally rich journeys that go beyond the typical tourist trailBecause I run my own travel business from home, I am fully flexible and work around you. You might find me working from a local café with my laptop and a coffee, designing bespoke itineraries and responding quickly when my clients need me.When you book through me, you save yourself time, stress and endless scrolling. I have access to an extensive range of trusted travel partners around the world, as well as valuable local contacts to add those special touches: from a memorable restaurant reservation to a private guide or a surprise treat on arrival.Every trip you book with me is 100% financially protected through the Travel Counsellors Financial Trust and ATOL, providing some of the best protection in the industry. You can relax knowing that your money and your holiday are in safe hands.With over 25 years of customer-focused experience, I pride myself on exceptional service and genuine care.
