    After 15 years experience working in London for an award winning high street travel agency, I'm now excited to be running my own travel consultancy with Travel Counsellors.My expertise is in arranging all levels of travel for both corporate and leisure clients. This comprehensive service includes everything you would expect - flights, accommodation, tours, cruises, visa and passport information and immunisation guidelines.The aspect of my job I enjoy the most is the relationships I build with my clients, and the challenge and interest of exploring your travel requirements. During my career, I have built up a vast amount of industry knowledge and I hope to draw on this experience to assist you in your travel plans. From an initial enquiry through to a completed booking, my priority is to provide the highest level of service and to make the booking process enjoyable and personal.My initial introduction to a life in travel was in my early 20s, at a time when I had the chance to take a year off and take my time visiting Asia, Australia, New Zealand and central America. This gave me a passion that I wanted to take in to working life, so on my return I ditched other possible career plans and applied for my number one option!Having subsequently embarked on my career, I have been lucky enough to experience even more destinations, in a variety of different styles. From trekking holidays in Bhutan, Nepal and Corsica, to luxury safaris in Tanzania & Kenya, beach holidays in Thailand, Turkey and the Greek Islands, plus tours of Uganda, Lebanon, India, Brazil and Argentina. I consider myself extremely fortunate to have travelled so widely, and to take these experiences in to my work. I've enjoyed my time so much along the way, working with great colleagues and especially meeting my brilliant clients.So, if you are thinking of a future trip of any sort, please get in touch and we can look at a trip together, and I can add you to that list!

    Hi, I’m Michaela, a Manchester based Personal Travel Counsellor with over 23 years of experience in the travel industry.My love for travel started young, thanks to my grandparents’ shipping business, as I got to travel the world with them. I was lucky enough to explore the world before tourism took off in places like the Middle and Far East. Those early adventures sparked a lifelong passion for discovering new destinations, cultures and unforgettable experiences.Today, I specialise in creating tailormade holidays for all types of travellers, whether it’s a once in a lifetime USA road trip, a family beach escape, an escorted tour, or an intricate multi-centre adventure across the globe.

These are the moments that make travel unforgettable, and I love helping others create memories just as special.What really drives me is getting to know my clients and understanding what they’re dreaming of, and then building something personal around it. I love nothing more than chatting through your ideas, and turning them into the kind of trip you’ll talk about for years to come.As your Travel Counsellor, I offer a one to one service from start to finish, I’m here to take the stress out of planning and give you complete peace of mind.Away from work I’m also a wife and mum, and I truly value the flexibility this role gives me, not only to be there for my family, but for my clients too.

    “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!

    Hello, thanks for taking the time to visit my webpage. Travel and exploring our big wide world has been my great passion since I first put on a backpack in my 20s. Fast forward 30 years and I still love exploring new countries and destinations; I find the different sounds, smells, culture, food and people of a new place fascinating. Travel rarely fails to put a smile on my face and while I fell into the travel industry by chance, I feel grateful and privileged to still be a part of it 25 years later. Sharing the excitement of my clients' trips is nearly as good as getting away myself! I'm lucky to still head overseas at least a few times each year and have been very fortunate to have visited over 40 countries across six continents so far, including extended trips across the USA, Australia and South East Asia. * Australia * New Zealand * Fiji * * USA * Mexico * Belize * Costa Rica * Guatemala * * Cuba * St Lucia * Antigua * Dominican Republic * * Europe * Morocco * Egypt * * Kenya * Uganda * Rwanda * South Africa * Namibia * * Mauritius * Maldives * Sri Lanka * India * * Thailand * Malaysia * Cambodia * Indonesia * * Singapore * Hong Kong * Japan * It’s impossible to pick a favourite, and the list gets longer each year, but some of my more memorable travel experiences are: - Meeting orangutans and watching spectacular bat migrations in Borneo - Watching a family of mountain gorillas and getting a little too close to a silverback in Rwanda - Playing with local children while waiting on a border crossing between Uganda and Rwanda - Waterfalls and paddy fields in Indonesia; eating Nasi Goreng from banana leaves with my fingers - Swimming in the waterholes above and beneath waterfalls in Kakadu NP and Edith Falls in the outback of Northern Australia - Driving at about 5mph to avoid the many rock wallabies hopping onto and across the road at dusk in The Grampians NP, Victoria - The fountains and fireballs at Southbank Casino, Melbourne - Springtime drives in the South Island of New Zealand with tiny newborn lambs in the fields - Incredible snorkelling and beautiful beaches in Fiji and the Maldives - My first taste of octopus, cooked over a fire in a beachside homestay in Fiji - Bright lights and fun fuelled evenings with friends on Hong Kong Island - Hearing the harrowing tsunami recollections of so many Sri Lankan locals just a year after the event - Savouring the perfect truffle risotto in Verona - The ethereal beauty of a wintry Iceland - Stargazing in Australia with shooting stars galore! - Cocktails, jazz and dancing at Frenchmen Street, New OrleansTaking the time to list the memories drives home how very fortunate I've been. Travel for me is all about new experiences and lasting memories, and that's what I endeavour to bring to each trip I help to create for my customers. I've booked all kinds of trips over the years, but nothing beats crafting a bespoke holiday. It's a joy to combine my firsthand knowledge of destinations with fresh research to help create that perfect trip for you. I haven't been everywhere, but with over 2000 Travel Counsellors to consult, there's not much I can't find out. My advice to you: stop trawling the myriad options online and let an expert guide you. I do the hard work so you don't have to! One size never fits all. I’ll ask the right questions to understand fully what makes you tick. Whatever the occasion, whatever the budget, I will ensure we find the right trip for you.Before, during and after booking, I'm on hand to answer your questions and my personal service is always just a phone call away. Everything booked through me has 100% financial protection for your complete peace of mind, and I have the support of Travel Counsellors' 24/7 Duty Office monitoring world events and entry regulations for our peace of mind.

    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 enjoy a very high level of repeat business (over 80%) and my business has grown enormously over the years, almost exclusively from word of mouth recommendations (you won't find me on Instagram or posting offers on facebook).I’ve always (since 1998) adored working in this wonderful industry and I live and breathe travel. My most recent long haul adventures been to Namibia, South Africa, Costa Rica, Maurituis and Thailand.

I was also lucky enough in the 2010s to spend three long and memorable summers with my young family travelling round Canada, USA and Brazil respectively. I’m a keen skier too, and I’ve matched many happy skiers with their perfect resorts in Europe, Canada, USA and Japan.So, whether you’re looking for a special family holiday, a honeymoon, a last-minute city break, a ski trip, luxury cruise, or planning the tailor-made holiday of a lifetime, please do get in touch. I know how easy it can be to lose hours of your life trawling the internet searching through a minefield of information. If you’d just like to talk to a real human being who will curate all that online information for you and distil it into what’s right for you, your travelling companions and your budget then I’m here to take the hassle out of booking your next holiday.I look forward to talking travel with you!

    Hi…      I’m Wayne and I have been in the travel industry now for over 40 years. The last 30 years, I have been selling cruises…    a great passion of mine from when I was a young boy. I have cruised and travelled extensively as you’ll see. I am married to Pam and we have two gorgeous daughters, both married to wonderful boys… four adorable grandsons, two courtesy of each daughter, and a beautiful granddaughter too. Nearly forgot.. we have a cheeky little dog as well.I have seen so many places on my cruise travels and many who know me have caught the bug too. Some of the more memorable trips have been a QE2 Transatlantic crossing, Fred Olsen’s Black Watch Amazon, Silversea’s Silver Cloud Red Sea, Crystal Serenity’s Caribbean, Regent Navigator’s New York and Bermuda, Holland America’s Maasdam Panama Canal, APT‘s AmaBella Danube…   and numerous other trips to the Baltic, Fjords, Spitsbergen, Mediterranean, South Africa, Far East and more.I live in Manchester and have worked from home for many years now. You cannot cruise and travel as much as I do without building up an extensive and varied knowledge base of all the sights, sites (yes, a little bit of a tongue twister), and places I’ve visited on my travels. I get excited at the thought of sharing my first-hand knowledge and experiences with people I talk to. I am no “tick box” traveller. To me, every single trip is full of the memories we create from them.I have to confess that my evenings out with friends invariably end up in us talking travel and I love hearing as much about their experiences as they do about mine. What free time I have I love being with family, reading, listening to relaxing music or walking our dog. Cruising remains my passion, as you will realise when you speak to me. If it’s cruising, cruises, cruise ships, cruise destinations…. in fact, just about anything cruise related, then get in touch with me.My many clients trust my no-nonsense, professional and “say what I do, do what I say” approach. You’ll be in good hands with your cruise and travel arrangements being handled by me personally.

  • Elaine Simpson

    01422 897490 Hebden Bridge

    My name is Elaine Simpson: I live in Hebden Bridge, West Yorkshire with my husband, Rod Bailey, who is a retired fine art lecturer. My passion is Australia - I’ve been a Tourism Australia Aussie Specialist for many years, visiting over 20 times; plus I’m a New Zealand Kiwi specialist and an expert in Round the World journeys. Closer to home I love to sail on Star Clippers traditional sailing ships and have crossed the Med with them several times. My 40+ years travel experience started in university travel offices which gave me an unrivalled knowledge of airline and rail routes and off-the-beaten-track destinations, as many of the students and lecturers came from, or travelled to, some far-out places! In 1989 I started my own travel agency for independent travellers and was presented to HRH the Prince of Wales having won a competition for start-up businesses in the Calderdale area. Late in June 2008 I joined Travel Counsellors and closed that business down and – one of the best decisions I have made in my career. I’ve travelled widely throughout Australasia, North America, Asia, Europe, Mexico and South Africa; have specialist accreditations also for Singapore, Hong Kong, Dubai etc, so I can offer a comparable service to all regions with the extensive and highly professional support of Travel Counsellors. Despite travelling extensively, my own wish-list never gets any shorter: in the past few years I have spent most winters in Tenerife and have visited India, Morocco, Australia, Greece, Turkey, Italy, Holland, Denmark, Barbados, Mexico, Thailand, New Orleans: and I’ll go anywhere else given half a chance! When I’m not booking travel, or travelling, I love to draw and paint and many of my pictures are inspired by the people and places I have met and seen along the way. When travelling I like to get off the beaten track and try out new experiences with a combination of action and relaxation and that is the kind of trip I excel in arranging. Therefore, whatever your idea of a good time, talk to me about it and together we’ll find the perfect trip for you! There’s a place in everyone’s life for a little self-indulgence and hedonism - we all need times to chill out - whether you find it in 5-star luxury or in a simple beach hut, I’ll go that extra mile to find the perfect place for you to relax and recharge your batteries. Whatever your travel needs I’d be delighted to help and can either meet you or arrange it via email or phone- so distance is no object in more ways than one! I look forward to hearing from you.

    Thank you for visiting my page. Let me introduce myself. I have worked in travel for over 36 years. I used to manage a local high street agency and I have also taught travel part-time at the Isle of Wight College.I have been fortunate to visit many countries including New Zealand, Australia, Peru, South Africa, Sri Lanka, the Maldives, Argentina, Brazil, Thailand, North America and Canada plus a host of destinations closer to home.It is hard to pick my favourite destination because there are so many. All countries offer their own history, diversity and culture which is what makes travel so enriching. Each trip becomes a personal discovery. Some of my most memorable experiences include visiting Machu Picchu in Peru where I climbed Huayna Picchu (Young Mountain); another includes taking a jet-boat ride on the Shotover River and a balloon flight over the Canterbury Plains during a visit to South Island in New Zealand. Similarly, witnessing the dramatic Iguazu Falls on the Brazilian/Argentine border by helicopter rates equally as memorable.During my career, I have seen many changes within the travel industry and as an agent, it is important to adapt to these changes. In 2015 I joined Travel Counsellors to offer a more bespoke, flexible service and to be part of a network of travel professionals, where customer service is a core value.Not only am I passionate about my job I am dedicated to it. I enjoy doing the research to give my clients competitive options with reliable suppliers coupled with a more personal service. A holiday, after all, is often a considered purchase and it is important to know it is in safe hands.So whether you are planning a long-haul itinerary or a short UK break or considering an ocean cruise or a boating holiday or taking to the slopes for a winter ski trip or a relaxing get-away-from-it-all beach holiday, I am on hand to help find that holiday that best suits your needs. I have experience in arranging anything from school groups, family holidays or an emergency last-minute flight. At Travel Counsellors I have access to award-winning technology and resources and moreover, I am on hand at hours to suit you. Even if you just need impartial, unbiased advice, please contact me.

    Hello and thank you for visiting my Travel Counsellors web page. As you’re reading this page, you’d like to know how I can help you? Do you love to travel, but haven’t got either the time or inclination to research? That’s only part of the free service I provide, I’ll create your holiday according to your requirements, however simple or complex you would like. With access to thousands of hotels, airlines, excursions, airport parking and insurance I’m literally a one stop travel shop – all at a time to suit you and from the comfort of your own home.Love the research, but can’t be sure whether the company you’re using online is legitimate? I offer 100% financial protection – your money is secure and will only be used for your holiday.What if things go wrong before you travel or while you’re away, would you like someone to speak to; someone who will act in your best interests? Recent events have reinforced the need to use an experienced travel provider. I promise I will always be available for you to speak to, right up until the moment you return from your holiday.My decision to become a Travel Counsellor was born from a love of travel and a desire to help others realise their travel dreams. I’m passionate about good customer service – something which is sadly lacking in this transaction led online environment. I provide my customers with a personal service; they only ever deal with me and I’m delighted I have some wonderful customers I now call friends.My love of travel goes back a long way; sparked by my first holiday abroad, a two-week Mediterranean cruise with school. As soon as I could I went to work for an airline – only leaving to bring up my two, now grown up, children. They both had their first holiday abroad when they were 3 months old and still love to travel. When the children were younger, we had lots of family trips to Europe (particularly Germany) and USA. More recently my husband and I have had some real ‘bucket list’ holidays – visiting Morocco, Singapore, Vietnam, Cambodia, India, Uganda, Tanzania, Hong Kong and Australia. We’re still busy planning more trips, but the list just gets longer!If you’re considering your next holiday why not get in touch for a chat – I promise you won’t regret it.

    01798 850 027 West Chiltington

    From Marcel Proust – ‘The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking landscapes, but in having new eyes’(let me be your planning eyes!)I live in a village in West Sussex called West Chiltington located approximately 30minutes from Gatwick and the coast of Brighton. I have lived here in the village for over 30years and just love country life.I originally hail from New Zealand which is where I had the best travel education facilities afforded to me. I started from the ground (in 1979 – just a baby) as just an office assistant in a VFR travel agency dealing mainly with the Dutch and Belgian expats. I learnt most of my formative trade there and quickly moved up the ranks to consultant and tour guide. I became a member of the New Zealand Institute of Travel which enabled me to expand my knowledge.I started travelling at the age of 16 with my sisters and we were lucky to be able to travel to Europe and some of the Pacific Islands. From there my itchy feet started. In 1986 I moved to Holland (where my Dad is from). In November 1986 I joined British Airways and worked for them in reservations and sales at Heathrow and Gatwick for 17years. I was fortunate to travel a great deal to all four continents (more than once) and forged some lasting life long friendships and experiences. I did all the required exams in sales, marketing, ticketing and operations. I won most sales prizes every month for highest productivity and an Award For Excellence.I left BA to work in a Travel Agency specialising in Cuba and the Caribbean where I was a Manager. I gained invaluable experience and made very useful contacts (who still book with me to this day). I did a two year stint with Qatar Airways at their Heathrow ticket desk and I then set up on my own, and so here we are. I love everything Caribbean and Latino and have extensive and personal knowledge of this region , especially Cuba, Jamaica and Grenada, but I am not limited to these areas and can sell any type of dream. Everything I sell is 100% financially protected and completely impartial, and tailormade to you.I am contactable 24 hours a day and you only deal with me.Contact me and let me unlock your dreams – ‘One’s destination is never a place but a new way of seeing things’(Henry Miller)

    Jenny Igoe

    0203 627 2660 Whetstone

    It’s Lovely to Meet YouI’m Jenny, an independent Travel Counsellor based in Whetstone, North London. I’ve worked in travel for over 20 years and have been running my own travel business for the past nine years, helping clients plan holidays and trips that are well thought out, personal, and genuinely enjoyable from start to finish.I believe travel planning should feel exciting, not overwhelming. My role is to take the stress away, handle the details, and make sure everything runs smoothly. I work closely with my clients, getting to know what they like (and what they don’t), so every trip is tailored properly rather than feeling like a one-size-fits-all booking.My love of travel started early thanks to my parents, who made sure we travelled abroad every year. At 20, I headed off on my first big adventure to Thailand, followed by a year living and working in Sydney. On the way home I travelled through Fiji, Hawaii, LA and Las Vegas — which completely cemented my love for seeing the world.I began my career with a Modern Apprenticeship at Thomas Cook, before spending ten years at Flight Centre in London. During that time, I gained solid experience in tailor-made, business and long-haul travel, and was lucky enough to visit some incredible places, including Tanzania on safari, Zanzibar, and the US.In 2008, my husband and I travelled through South and Central America — from Brazil and Argentina to Peru, Bolivia and Costa Rica — trekking the Inca Trail and experiencing some truly unforgettable moments along the way. Those trips shaped the way I plan travel today: focusing on experiences, not just destinations.Now we travel as a family of five, with three teenagers, and our trips range from skiing holidays and European breaks to long-haul adventures like Australia, Dubai and next year we are off to Asia. Travelling with teens has given me a very practical understanding of what works (and what doesn’t) when planning family holidays — especially when comfort, pace and flexibility matter.Whether you’re planning a big trip, a special celebration, or simply want someone you trust to organise your travel properly, I’d love to help. Just get in touch with your ideas and we’ll take it from there.Jenny

    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. It’s your choice; my aim is to make your travel planning as stress-free as possible.Whatever your travel requirements, please get in touch. You’ll be talking to someone who listens, who cares, and who can make it happen.“Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.” - Ferris Bueller’s Day Off

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

    Sharon Bennett, Travel Agent, Bushey, Hertfordshire.Hello, my name is Sharon and I would like to welcome you to my personal webpage. I am based in Bushey, Hertfordshire and have been helping my clients with their travel arrangements for almost 30 years.I joined Travel Counsellors as I wanted to concentrate on giving my customers the highest possible levels of personal service and independent travel advice. Working from home without the distractions of the high street I am able to offer you exceptional customer service, 7 DAYS A WEEK and at a time convenient to you, listening to your needs to ensure that I find you a holiday that meets and exceeds your expectations.To me travel is not a job, but a passion and having visited many places talking about them is a joy!Early in my travel career I booked a lovely retired couple on a round-the-world trip. The itinerary I designed was so interesting, amazing sights to visit, first class hotels throughout that it inspired me to want to do the same! The following year I embarked on a similar journey visiting Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Australia, New Zealand, Fiji, the Hawaiian Islands and America. I stayed in first class hotels and visited the places that up until that point I had only dreamt of. I returned home 11 months later with a ridiculously high credit card bill, but no regrets and I was now armed with a wealth of information, and amazing memories and stories that I would one day tell my children.I honeymooned in Barbados, spent my first wedding anniversary in Jamaica, and have travelled to many places around the Globe as a single, couple and with my children. I know the importance of keeping the whole family amused , the hotels must have excellent kids clubs and are either on, or very close to the beach with good food and first rate adult facilities so that I can unwind and enjoy too! My top 3 favourite Mediterranean destinations are Italy Portugal and Greece.My career has taken me through all of the avenues that make up the travel industry, which include Retail High Street travel agencies, tour operating, Business Travel and even teaching Travel and Tourism at various London colleges.As a Personal Travel Counsellor I can take this experience, together with the knowledge gained from the numerous countries in the world that I have visited, to offer a full comprehensive service for my clients both holidays and Business travellers.Working as part of a network of independent travel consultants, I am not tied to selling one particular company’s holiday. In fact I have access to over four hundred companies. There is a unique system in place which no other travel agency or tour operator has access to, which enables me to book flights, accommodation and transfers separately - more often that not far cheaper than tour operator packages. I am a far better Travel Agent than webpage writer, so, whether your needs are that Business trip to secure contracts and network, or that weekend away to recharge your batteries, a special holiday with family and friends, sun, city, ski, or cruise, give me a call and let me personally help you to turn your travel needs and dreams into reality.Thank you for taking the time to visit my web page and I look forward to hearing from you soon.Sharon

For over 25 of those years I have focused on leisure travel, designing everything from relaxed beach escapes and family adventures to complex, once-in-a-lifetime itineraries. I like to say I am a bit of a jack of all trades when it comes to destinations, which means my clients benefit from a broad perspective as well as deep, first-hand knowledge.I launched my Travel Counsellors business in February 2020 and today it delivers an annual turnover of more than £2 million. Corporate travel is my main area of focus, but as our business has grown, so too has our leisure offering. With our expanding team, we now have dedicated colleagues who support my leisure clients, as well as continuing to look after the travel needs of our corporate travellers and their families.Within the team we have specialists across the globe: from South Africa and the wider African continent to the Caribbean, the USA and South America, Asia and Australasia. We also have expertise across a wide range of holiday types, including ski, golf, safari, beach, luxury and premium escapes. So whether you are dreaming of a Maldivian overwater villa, a family ski trip, a self-drive through South Africa or a luxury Caribbean cruise, there will be someone in the team who knows it inside out.What originally inspired me to become a Travel Counsellor was the opportunity to build genuine relationships with my clients. By taking the time to really get to know you, I can understand what truly matters: the kind of hotels you love, how you like to travel, and the little details that make a big difference. That might be arranging a particular room type with a sunset view, planning a surprise for a special celebration, or recommending a seafront restaurant where I know from experience they serve an exceptional steak. These personal touches are simply not something an online booking website can offer.I pride myself on providing a high-touch, friendly and very personal service, handling every stage of your trip from the first idea to your return home. You will have one point of contact who knows you and your preferences, backed up by my growing team and a 24-hour UK-based duty office for those times when I am unavailable or when you need support while you are away.Travel Counsellors as a business has been recognised many times for the way we look after our customers. We are Queens Award winners for Enterprise for the third time, finalists for Luxury Homeworking Business of the Year, and were voted the best travel firm for looking after their customers during the COVID-19 pandemic by readers of MoneySavingExpert. Our strapline is “With us… it’s personal” and I am proud to live that every day, whether I am arranging a complex corporate itinerary or a much-needed family holiday.If you would like some holiday inspiration, access to the best options without the stress of searching, or simply honest advice on where to go next, I would be delighted to help you plan your perfect trip.

    Just imagine the horror on my Mum’s face when, at the innocent age of 7, I announced to all and sundry that “I want to be a new age traveller”. Shortly followed by the proclamation that actually, “I don’t care as long as I can just travel anywhere I like!”Who would have known that over 30 years later I would have travelled around the world twice, visited over 80 countries, spent three summer’s teaching sailing and water sports abroad and forged a career in marketing and accountancy. After volunteering in a South African township for six months, I made the biggest decision of my life so far - to transform my life of travel into a productive future of inspiring, planning and creating holidays and breaks away for other people.Having lived in the Stratford upon Avon area and Evesham for most of my life, I have incredible support from friends, family and clients throughout Warwickshire and the neighbouring counties as well as worldwide. Since July 2020, I now have idyllic Keswick to call home and have created a beautiful network of friends up here who share similar passions and interests and definitely keep me fit and active!I love being ‘the one to call’ for advice, top tips and inspiration for all travel requirements – no matter what type of trip it is!
