However, there is still plenty of the world left for me to discover.I’ve worked in travel for almost 5 years, up until recently in a store. I tailored packages for hundreds of satisfied customers, very many of these returning to me year after year to rebook. Through this I built up a personal understanding of what holidays they liked and what new adventures I would could make possible for them and others in the future.I believe holidays are not only a break from the normality of life, they also play an important part of your life and I personally feel these experiences should be treasured and remembered forever.

I love to engage with people and my aim is to ensure that every aspect of your valued break is exactly what you require. My priority is you.I will do everything to accommodate your wishes and will be available to offer you help, advice and give you the best service possible.I can cater for all types of holidays from a weekend break in England to an all around the world cruise. I will be able to help you with not only just packages, but flights (business and personal), accommodation, ancillary extras such as attraction tickets, car parking, insurance and hire cars to anything else you may need travel related.If there’s somewhere you’d like to visit – then I can help to make those dreams come true and turn the fantasy into reality.

Hello. I am Christine and I live in Berkshire in the heart of Newbury Racecourse.Some would say I am addicted to travel. I prefer to call it a passion for seeing the world, from as close to home as Cornwall to as far afield as Indonesia. When it comes to arranging my clients holidays, I am just as passionate, and get a real excitement knowing that some of them will be visiting the beautiful places I have been lucky enough to visit myself.I have been travelling the world for 40 years and been to more than 35 destinations. I can offer first hand knowledge and experience of both the East and West coast of America, Hawaii and the Caribbean islands I have stayed at or visited whilst cruising. Asia is somewhere I return to again and again and have been to Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand. I have had the most amazing experiences, visiting an elephant experience followed by the madness that is Bangkok and enjoyed white water rafting and jungle bike rides in Bali.I was also lucky enough to visit Russia way back in 1987 when life was very different. I also have a very good knowledge of Europe. If you are planning a holiday closer to home, I am also on hand to assist you with anything from UK and European weekend or city breaks and if you prefer more of a home-from-home holiday I can arrange luxury Villa holidays across Europe, Florida and the Caribbean.Being a mother of three grown up children and with two very energetic grandchildren, I can also offer personal advice on family holidays. My favourite place for a family holiday is Disneyworld in Florida. I have lasting memories from the first time my children met Mickey Mouse to more recently watching my grandchildren’s faces light up as they saw Cinderella’s Castle for the first time.I want to make your holidays as perfect as mine have been. Using my knowledge and expertise, I can arrange all kinds of trips, breaks, holidays, honeymoons, mini moons, cruises and bespoke holidays. All with the peace of mind that you will be 100% financially protected.I look forward to becoming your Travel Counsellor, providing personal service and arranging all your holiday needs to suit you.

Hello, I’m Norman and I’m happily married to Janet and we have a wonderful Golden Retriever Freya.So you may ask, why choose me to arrange your travel plans?To answer that I’d first like to tell you a little bit about why I started working in the travel industry, way back in 1975.As a young boy, I dreamed of becoming an airline pilot, having been fortunate to travel extensively with my family to some of the far flung corners of the globe, well before tour operators or even travel packages were conceived. As a 12 year old I would often be found sitting in the cockpit with the pilot, asking hundreds of questions and getting my Junior Jet Club Frequent Flyer log book signed.Sadly due to colour blindness, my dream job could never be realised, but that didn’t fade my love of travel and so in my early twenties I took ownership of a local travel agency; in Wigan, learning the trade from the bottom up.Since that date in 1975 I have been responsible for arranging thousands of holidays and business trips for individuals, couples and families, major corporations, a leading TV company and broadcaster, celebrities and professional sports clubs, including their players, backroom staff and an army of devoted fans. I have been known to charter private jets, trains and dare I mention organizing the travel plans of a major political party during a general election.My clients come from all walks of life; have different expectations and budgets, which I try my utmost to fulfil. From room or seating requests, to the dietary requests of a famous TV chef, I’ve learned that nothing is impossible. Sure I still love to travel; who doesn’t?, but I get enormous satisfaction turning dreams into reality and the feedback I receive helps me keep abreast of the constantly changing world in which we live.So, whether you want a mini break or beach holiday, a river cruise, a Caribbean or round the world cruise, a trip to Antarctica, a safari, or journey on The Rocky Mountaineer or Trans Siberian Express. Do you dream of skiing or snowmobiling, or desire a bespoke multi-centre trip to Australasia or the Far East. Don’t worry, I’ve arranged them all.No trip is too big or too small, so with over 45 years in the travel business, give me a call and experience my experience.Norman

Hello! I am Charlotte and thank you for taking the time to visit my page!I have over 10 years’ experience in the travel industry and have been lucky enough to travel to some beautiful destinations during this time; some of my favourites include Canada, Iceland, Mexico and Australia. Most recently I have specialised in the Caribbean spending 7 years working with hotels in Barbados and St Lucia.We have all spent countless hours searching the internet for that perfect holiday and know how stressful it is, so let me take the stress out of that for you. I can arrange any type of holiday from that once in a lifetime dream trip to the Maldives, a city break in Amsterdam, an adults only Caribbean cruise, a family summer holiday in Europe or even Greek island hoping. Nothing is off limits; everything can be personalised to suit you and your budget.Over the last few years, I have seen first-hand that now more than ever it’s so important to have that extra bit of security when travelling and booking your holidays. As an independent Travel Counsellors, I have the opportunity to get to know you personally and ensure your trip goes exactly to plan from the moment you make your booking till you return back. A unique benefit of booking with Travel Counsellors is that every element of your holiday is 100% financially protected by either ATOL or the Travel Counsellors Trust, giving you full peace of mind.I love nothing more than the excitement of booking a new holiday so feel free to give me a call or send me a message anytime you are considering a trip away. I look forward to hearing from you!

Hi, I’m Soozie, your personal TC based in Bookham, where I live with my husband, son and our 2 dogs.Travel has been part of my life since I was young, from UK & European family holidays to more exotic adventures in the Far East and Indian Ocean. I even said “I do” in Las Vegas, followed by an unforgettable visit to the Grand Canyon, because I have always believed that travel should be personal, memorable and a little bit different. Over the last 25+ yrs in the industry, I have turned that passion into a career, helping clients create trips that feel truly special, from simple beach breaks to once‑in‑a‑lifetime journeys.My favourite destinations are hard to choose, as every trip is unique, but a few stand out. The Maldives has a big piece of my heart. The white sands, crystal‑clear water and incredible marine life are simply breath-taking. Watching manta rays glide through the water in the evening, spotting baby reef sharks at the water’s edge and snorkelling with colourful fish are memories I will never forget. Even the seaplane transfer feels like the start of the adventure as you fly over tiny islands and land beside the pristine beaches.Mauritius is another firm favourite and one of my top‑selling destinations. Here, you have stunning beaches plus the freedom to explore safely, perhaps by hiring a car and discovering waterfalls, viewpoints and local markets. It is fantastic for weddings, honeymoons and special celebrations - which I can help with.I also have a real love for the Far East. Thailand, with its delicious food, friendly people and mix of culture & beach, is always popular. I work a lot with touring and adventure holidays across Asia, India & Japan, as well as South America and bucket‑list destinations such as Antarctica.Most recently I travelled on an escorted tour of Saudi Arabia and a tour in Jordan, which were both incredible. From ancient sites and dramatic desert landscapes to warm local hospitality and lesser‑known cultural experiences, these trips have really deepened my knowledge of the Middle East. I now love helping clients who are curious about these emerging and more adventurous destinations.As a Travel Counsellor, I am part of an award‑winning company with a unique financial trust, which means everything I book is 100% financially protected. This peace of mind is one of the key reasons I chose to join Travel Counsellors. I have access to a huge range of trusted suppliers and can put together almost any kind of trip: tailor‑made itineraries, escorted tours, adventure and small‑group journeys, Indian Ocean and beach escapes, USA and city breaks, Alaska and cruise, Lapland and winter wonderland breaks, ski holidays and sports travel including cycling and golf.I am also proud to have been selected as a Tour Ambassador within Travel Counsellors, reflecting my particular expertise in touring, adventure and bucket‑list travel. I regularly train with our suppliers, keeping up to date with new tours, routes and best sellers, so I can match you with the right style and pace of trip, whether you are travelling solo, as a couple, with friends or as a family.When you book through me, you support a local small business and gain your own dedicated travel expert. I save you time by doing the research, compare the options for you and design holidays that are tailored to your tastes. Many of the complex tours and combinations I create are not easily found online. I am at the end of the phone, WhatsApp or email, and for local clients I will often hand‑deliver tickets and documents where I can. I can also arrange appointments outside normal office hours to suit your schedule.I genuinely care about getting it right and I love the challenge of finding the perfect holiday, whether that is a relaxing beach, a cultural tour, an epic road trip or a once‑in‑a‑lifetime expedition. If you are starting to dream about your next escape or that big bucket‑list adventure, I would love to help bring it to life.

Welcome everyone. I’m Deborah and I live in South Northants close to Milton Keynes along with my husband Steve and son Sebastian.My interest in travel was sparked at the age of 12 by a school project about ancient Egypt. I was fascinated and promised myself that I would one day see this mysterious place for myself and that I would definitely have a career in travel. I have done both and have had the most amazing time working in the travel retail sector as a travel consultant and a store manager and I have won various awards both individually and as part of the teams I have been fortunate to work with over the years. Consequently I have had 40 years of holidays and work trips (all in the line of duty) and therefore have a wealth of knowledge of this wonderful world which I love to share with my customers.I have enjoyed everywhere I have visited but my favourite is Italy so much so that we have bought a little renovation project down in Puglia. Otherwise I have such special memories of family holidays to Disney, Lapland, beautiful beach breaks across most of Europe, exciting city breaks around the world, Caribbean treats, relaxing and indulgent cruises, and tailor made trips to Canada, the Far East, USA, Brazil, New Zealand and Australia. I look forward to hearing about your experiences and helping you plan your next adventure. I will work tirelessly to find the perfect holiday and look for ways to make it extra special. I will be honest and offer unbiased advice and above all I will never underestimate the size of your emotional and financial investment. I will support you throughout.So whether you are looking for a UK break, a tailor made worldwide itinerary, a city break, a relaxing week on the beach, a river or ocean cruise I would love to help you. I am available when and how it suits you. We all have different life schedules and I can work around yours.Please feel free to contact me by phone or email. The details are below. We already have our passion for travel in common so I know this will be fun.

Hi, I'm Scarlett and I'm a Travel Counsellor based in Newcastle upon Tyne. Thank you so much for stopping by!Travel has been part of my life for as long as I can remember, from family holidays as a child to planning my own adventures the moment I was old enough to book them myself. That early passion led me to study Travel and Tourism as a school leaver, but life took me on a slightly different path… until 2021, when I finally joined the travel industry professionally and haven’t looked back since.Before becoming a Travel Counsellor, I spent much of my career in the legal industry and higher education administration – both roles where organising corporate and academic travel was part of my day-to-day. It was in those moments, booking everything from business trips to conferences, that I realised just how much I loved crafting travel experiences for others.Now, I help clients create travel experiences that feel truly personal – with a focus on sustainability, cruelty-free choices, and inclusive options for all. I’m passionate about making sure every trip aligns with your values, whether that means avoiding animal exploitation, seeking out LGBTQIA+ friendly stays, or finding destinations that prioritise ethical tourism.My mission is simple: to create meaningful travel experiences that are personal, inclusive, and aligned with your values. I believe travel should be a source of joy, connection, and discovery – never compromise. Whether you're planning a once-in-a-lifetime honeymoon, a family escape, or a soul-soothing solo break, I’m here to take the stress out of planning and replace it with confidence, care, and a touch of magic. Travel is more than a destination – it’s a feeling. Let’s make yours unforgettable.Since stepping into the world of travel full-time, I've had the pleasure of helping a couple arrange their bespoke dream honeymoon to Costa Rica, organising a once-in-a-lifetime trip to Minneapolis for a Prince superfan, and booking plenty of well-deserved weekend getaways to favourites like Benidorm and Tenerife. Personally, I’ve fallen in love with Mexico – my favourite Caribbean destination.I live in Newcastle with my partner Dean and our daughter Lilith, and I understand the importance of travel being both memorable and manageable – especially when life is full on. I bring warmth, empathy and attention to detail to every booking, treating your holiday as if it were my own.With Travel Counsellors’ unique Financial Trust protection, every penny you spend is 100% financially secure. I’ll be by your side from that first chat to safe return and beyond, making sure your journey is smooth, special and full of joy.Let’s make your next adventure unforgettable – I’d love to help you plan it!

Hi, I'm Karren Fulgoni, your personal travel expert.Originally from Somerset, I now live and run my business from my home in St Mary Bourne in the stunning surroundings of rural Hampshire.I have a passion for travel. I think this stems from spending school summer holidays camping in France. I have been very fortunate to have travelled and toured in many countries but a particular favourite area of the world is South East Asia; I have spent time in Bali with its stunning paddy fields and temples, Japan with its iconic red Torii gates and Mount Fuji, Thailand, Borneo, Cambodia and Vietnam. I love the Indian Ocean, having married my husband in Mauritius and then developed a particular soft spot for the Maldives, snorkelling off of the beach with the local turtles and stunning marine life. I have family in Australia so visiting them is always a great excuse to add on extra locations such as the Great Barrier Reef, Tasmania, Fiji, Hong Kong and Singapore.I am passionate about providing a personal, trusted service, on hand whenever you need me, helping you to make memories of a lifetime to treasure forever. I understand that 9-5 doesn't suit everyone and I am happy to talk at a time convenient to you, whether that be evenings, weekends or just over a coffee.

I can help with small bookings such as a flight, UK experience or hotel but equally a complex multi-centre tour or cruise.

My name is Nicola Rawlinson and I am an independent travel agent. I have been in the travel industry for over 20 years. I joined Travel Counsellors in 2004 and before that I was Manager at Travelworld in Guiseley.I joined Travel Counsellors as I wanted to concentrate on giving my customers the highest possible levels of personal service and independent travel advice without targets. Therefore I can now ensure that I can focus on booking the right holiday for my customers.I have travelled to many many places throughout the world. In addition I have participated in a number of training programmes.

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.I recognise that not everyone is free to discuss their travel arrangements during the working week, which is why working from home means you can contact me at times when most other travel agents are unavailable, including evenings and weekends. This has also proved invaluable in the very unlikely event that you have a problem whilst in resort.I can help you arrange any part of your travel arrangements - so whether it be a theatre break to London or a round the world cruise - I can help. As part of a large organisation I can also get you great deals on accommodation so if you need to know the best Paris hotels for a last minute holiday to France or the best Dubai hotels for a luxurious weekend in the sun please contact me. Of course I can help with any other travel arrangements you may have, including holiday car hire and holiday insurance.

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.

-Bringing American hospitality to global adventures-Hi, I’m Christina. I’m a personal travel concierge ready to take the stress out of planning your trip. Originally from Chicago, I now call the U.K. home, a journey that has given me invaluable insight into both American and British travel perspectives. My hospitality expertise, combined with my varied experiences allow me to understand the unique needs of all of my different customers. I aim for the whole experience of planning and travel to be tailored to you. Most importantly, I’m here for you before, during and after travel via phone, email or the MyTC app. That is the benefit: a real person who cares. Instead of letting the internet sell you what it wants to sell you, why not set up a time for us to chat about what works for you? -What do I mean by tailored to you?-Are you a planner that’s just in need of some inspiration? Or are you looking for a more detailed concierge approach? I will accommodate either, or anywhere in between! When it comes to the details of your trip, tell me about your likes, your loves, your sensitivities and your aversions. I want to hear it all! I welcome and embrace these preferences, and my goal is to curate itineraries around them. -What kind of travel are we talking?-Whether you're planning a weekend getaway, a business trip, or a once-in-a-lifetime adventure, I will leverage my industry connections and knowledge to create personalized trips that go beyond the ordinary. -A personal touch, powered by Travel Counsellors-Every Travel Counsellors holiday comes with ATOL and Traveller Counsellors Trust protection, meaning your trip is 100% financially protected.

Welcome to my page. Let me tell you a little bit about me...As a Travel Counsellor I'm passionate about travel, and working hand in hand with my clients I can tailor the perfect holiday around you – whether it be a family holiday, a bucket list trip of a lifetime wedding abroad, city break, or even a UK staycation. I just love anything out of the ordinary, and will always take on a challenge. I can also book packages with the major tour operator brands such as Jet 2. I've worked in the travel industry for over 20 years ago, starting with Thomson Holidays (now Tui) and then the good old days of teletext holidays …how things have changed! I spent 15 years as an event and wedding planner working at some of the most prestigious hotels and venues, including Weston Park in Shropshire. I have arranged over 1000 weddings and lost count of the number of private parties, corporate events and activity days. I returned to travel in 2012 specialising in weddings abroad and luxury travel, and then started my travel business with Travel Counsellors at the end of 2019. There were so many reasons why I chose Travel Counsellors as my business partner. Spanning over 25 years they are a multi-award winning company with offices worldwide and support which is second to none. Their ‘with us it's personal‘ promise struck a chord with me too. My clients are my business and I treat every booking or enquiry as if it were my own. I look after your booking right to the very end. If you need to make a change to your itinerary, or add on excursions whilst you are on holiday, I can do that for you - a true travel concierge service. I relax knowing that you have arrived safely at your destination, and then again when you arrive back home. I work from home so there are no call centres to deal with. This also means that I’m available to discuss your plans at a time to suit you including evenings and weekends. I’m based in Staffordshire but have clients all around the UK. If you are close by we can meet for a chat over a coffee or glass of fizz…and for those further away then calls, emails and face to face via zoom etc is just fine.... whatever works best for you! I have access to thousands of trusted travel providers at my fingertips and as a company we continue to increase the direct contracts we have with hotels and specialist suppliers around the world. This means that I can personally tailor your plans knowing that I am working directly with the local suppliers, and ensuring that I'm securing the most competitive rates for you. Travel Counsellors offer the best financial protection in the industry and whilst you are on holiday we also have a 24 hours Duty Office to assist with difficulties out of hours, so you are always in contact with a person. For piece of mind your holiday is also fully protected financially through ATOL. So now you know who I am, I look forward to hearing from you and sending you off on your next adventure....wherever it may be

Hello, I’m Katie May – your trusted Travel Counsellor, based in the heart of Lincolnshire. Boston is home to me, my husband, our teenage son, a lively dog, and a muddy cob (horse, for anyone not in the know). Life here is full of energy and warmth – and that’s exactly what I bring to every holiday I create: a wholehearted commitment to helping you craft life-long memories.My passion for travel ignited as a solo adventurer in Australia during my first gap year after school. The travel bug truly took hold during a second gap year post-university, when I embarked on a round-the-world backpacking adventure with my then-boyfriend (now husband): we partied under full moon skies, lived on remote outback cattle stations, soared above the Grand Canyon, and woke to lions’ roars on safari under canvas.Since then, I’ve snorkelled in the crystal-clear waters of the Maldives, marvelled at the ancient majesty of Machu Picchu, and been immersed in the vibrant culture of India. These, and many more experiences have gifted me memories to last a lifetime and inspired my career helping others do the same. Years with a leading luxury tour operator allowed me to specialise in crafting journeys that truly mean more – from exhilarating ski adventures and sun-drenched Mediterranean escapes, to dreamy winter-sun retreats across the Indian Ocean, Middle East, and Caribbean. Yet, the Seychelles remains a personal favourite: a paradise where those once-in-a-lifetime moments seem effortless, thanks to icing-sugar sands and idyllic lagoons.As your Travel Counsellor, I’ll guide you towards a Better Journey at every step – whether you’re chasing bucket-list experiences, seeking total relaxation, craving cultural adventures, or longing for meaningful family time. I’ll help you build a holiday that sparks pure joy and creates life-long, joyful memories. My personal service and meticulous planning mean you can truly relax, knowing every detail is in safe hands.Because I’m a flexible homeworker balancing family (and muddy cob) life, I’m here whenever you need – daytime, evenings, or weekends. Let’s make your next holiday not just a trip, but the first chapter in a story of cherished new memories.Let’s start planning your Better Journey today. Get in touch, and let’s create life-long memories you’ll treasure forever.

My name is Charley and I’m based in Wells, Somerset where I live with my partner, children and two giant ginger cats.With over 13 years of travel industry experience, I’ve worked for both a high-end bespoke touring company and a luxury high street travel agent. What sets me apart from both companies, and certainly from online booking agents, is that I’m here to offer my clients unrivalled support throughout their entire holiday experience, from the first time we speak to after they’ve returned from their travels. I’ll be available to advise and answer any pre-travel questions, assist with all the extras that make a vacation truly special, such as room requests, dining reservations and experiences, and I’ll be there to help in worst-case scenarios, if anything goes wrong. Essentially think of me as your own personal travel concierge!My favourite place on earth is New Zealand, where I was lucky enough to live for nearly three years. In my opinion there is nowhere more visually beautiful, with its mountains, glaciers and lakes, white sand beaches and wineries, and honestly the friendliest locals you could meet. My other favourite travel memories are being within a couple of metres of three rhinos in Kruger National Park, seeing bears in Sequoia National Park (California) and travelling solo through the Tibetan mountains of southwest China – which hosts some of the most stunning scenery I’ve seen.I could talk about travel and my experiences for days, but my other passion is creating bespoke and personal itineraries to share with my clients so they can explore the places they’ve always dreamt of visiting. From luxury rail travel across Canada, to complex multi-stop cities in the USA, to your first safari in Africa or beach hopping in Thailand and Malaysia, I love the challenge of piecing it all together.As well as tailormade touring, I also work with a huge range of suppliers and resorts and can arrange everything from skiing to Caribbean beach holidays, from a weekend away in Europe to a cruise around the arctic or the Mediterranean. Anything booked through me (no matter how big or small) is fully protected financially and any flight inclusive trips are ATOL protected as well.As I work from home I am able to speak with clients at a time that suits them – whether this is during standard office hours, in the evenings or at weekends. I’m happy to arrange video calls or can even catch up for a chat over a coffee somewhere – my flexibility means I can work around them.I can be contacted over the phone, Skype, Whatsapp, Facebook or Instagram – give me a shout anytime as I can’t wait to discuss your next trip!

Travel and holidays are what I have worked and lived for all my life, and I am a firm believer of always having my next holiday booked to have something to look forward to. Holidays mean something different to every person, maybe it is quality family time or a romantic breakaway, exploring a new destination, a honeymoon or a well-deserved break after hard work. Whatever holidays mean to you, I am here to take the headache out of holiday arrangements and make your dream vacation come true. As an independent Travel Counsellor, my customers are at the heart of what I do and your needs are my top priority. From staycations to exotic destinations, a couples retreat to family get-togethers, safaris to cruises, skiing trips to diving excursions…I am passionate about creating your perfect trip, whilst providing a professional and personal service. Whatever time of the day, I am available to contact for help, and when you are on holiday my assistance is a touch of a button away. Having grown up in South Africa, I have been on countless safaris and wine tours and have found my passion for nature and animals in my beautiful home country. Once I had spread my wings beyond the South African borders, my journeys took me to the snowy slopes of Scotland, the pyramids of Egypt, the amazing landscapes of Italy, the coast of Portugal, the crazy rides of Walt Disney World, France, Russia, and countless more. I found I had a serious soft spot for islands and beaches and have been to Zanzibar, Mauritius, Hawaii, Maldives, Sharm El Sheikh, Mozambique and Miami to name but a few! In addition to travelling within most continents, I also discovered the exciting world of scuba diving! Words cannot describe the wonder of being face to face with a whale shark in the Red Sea, hearing dolphins under water in Zanzibar or swimming peacefully next to green turtles off the coast of Maui. I look forward to working with you to create your perfect travel experience!

I’m Adam, your local Travel Counsellor and I love what I do which is creating and booking your perfect getaways. Whether it’s an all-inclusive family sun holiday, a solo adventure or anything in between I am here for you, your friends and family.My passion for travel started early when I backpacked through India and Sri Lanka, ending my adventure with a week in the Maldives.Since that journey eighteen years ago, I find solace in all travel whether it be dining barefoot on the sands of the Caribbean, wandering cobble lanes through historic European cities or the sensory overload as I take in the bustle of everyday life in the Far East.I feel very fortunate to have been to some incredible destinations so far and if I had to name just two stand out experiences, it would be India with Argentina & Brazil as a twin-centre holiday.I immersed myself into the backpacker way of life in India. Waking each morning with a loose plan of where I was heading, finding amazing eateries on side streets all whilst taking recommendations from people I meet along the way. I’m still mesmerised by the people, the history and culture of India. My first experience of South America was venturing from Buenos Aires to Rio De Janeiro via Iguazu Falls. One word sums up my experience, WOW! From the outstanding natural beauty of Argentina to the colourful festivities of Carnival in Rio, this is a trip I’ll never forget.I know just how important seamless planning, booking and travelling abroad is. I also understand the travel landscape changes and using a trusted travel agent makes all the difference. This is where I help, from our initial meeting the focus is all about you, your ideas and what will make your holiday perfect from the get-go. I can assist with hotels, car hire, flights, ski, cruise, fly & drive & island hopping. You name it, I will make it possible bringing your dream holiday to life. You can rest assured knowing whilst you are on holidays, I am only a phone call, email or text away, no matter the time of day or night. I am here for you.Your positive experience abroad makes being your Travel Counsellor the best job in the world. Please follow me on Facebook & Instagram where you’ll find travel inspiration, updates and news with amazing offers too good to be missed.I am excited to speak with you to bring your travel dreams alive.

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

Hello, I'm Steve. Welcome to my page! I live in Bushey Heath, Hertfordshire with my wife Tanya and we have two fabulous children. We all know first-hand how precious holiday time is – whether you're seeking adventure, relaxation, cultural immersion, or simply quality time with loved ones.My love affair with travel began with childhood family trips to Spain. From that first taste of Spanish sunshine, different cultures, new flavours and unfamiliar sights, I was hooked. That early spark has grown into a lifelong passion for exploring our incredible world.Over the years, I've been fortunate to travel extensively across Europe – from the vibrant cities of the west to the historic charm of the east, the stunning fjords of the north to the sun-drenched Mediterranean south. My honeymoon safari in Kenya remains one of the most awe-inspiring experiences of my life – there's something truly magical about witnessing nature in its rawest, most magnificent form. I've also cruised through the Caribbean and explored countless destinations that have each left their mark on me.I'm naturally curious about people and places. I love cruises for their effortless way of exploring multiple destinations, cultural experiences that broaden horizons, and those breathtaking natural wonders that simply blow your mind. Norwegian fjords, African safaris, hidden European gems – these are the experiences that remind us how extraordinary our world truly is.My greatest strength? I'm a team player. Throughout my career, I've succeeded by building strong collaborative relationships and leveraging the expertise of those around me. As your Travel Counsellor, this means you benefit not just from my dedication and attention to detail, but from a whole network of colleagues and suppliers working together to create your perfect holiday.I believe every holiday should be bespoke – shaped around your tastes, your dreams, and your budget. From the initial spark of an idea to the moment you return home with a camera full of memories, I'll be there every step of the way. I'll take the time to really understand what you're looking for, handle all the details, and work tirelessly to ensure everything is just right. Whether you're dreaming of an exotic safari, a relaxing cruise, a European adventure, or turning a bucket list dream into reality – I'd love to help make it happen.With the backing of Travel Counsellors' award-winning network, I offer you complete financial protection, 24/7 support while you're away, and access to incredible travel options worldwide.Let's start exploring together. Give me a call or drop me an email, and let's begin planning your next unforgettable journey.

Hi, my name is Maria, I was born and bred in Somerset, and seem to have a strong West Country "Farmer" accent! so people tell me! I always knew since school I either wanted to a a Travel Agent or a Florist and lucky for me, I got a job in Travel at the aged of 16 and have never left the industry! From starting out working in Tour Operations putting together Tailor-made Bespoke Rugby Tours to continuing through the travel agencies on the high Street to now being a Business Owner for the last 20 years. Having my own business gives my the flexibility to work the hours that suit me and my clients and that can look like a Teams call, clients visiting my office in Midsomer Norton (by appointment) or me meeting them for coffee or a breakfast perhaps, or visiting them at home at a time that suits them. My working hours are very different each week but predominately I am in my Office itself 8.30-4.30 Mon-Fri however I work outside these hours to suit. I have been fortunate enough to have travelled to some pretty amazing places in the world and have been able to take my family too. Our Girls , whom are all grown up now and young adults, have seen the world from their early ages so travelling as a family, is something I completely understand and can relate too. As the girls are grown up, My husband and I are now starting to holiday as a couple again and for one it is a lot Cheaper! The one thing I enjoy the most about having a Travel Business, is I get to see many years of a client and watch them grow. I have the Privilege to deal with couples. Solo travellers, and families throughout many years of their lives and go through the changes that life brings, such as an Honeymoon, maybe a wedding abroad, the 1st time travelling with a child/children on a family holiday, or going solo for the 1st time and also later in life taking their grandchildren away and dealing with the whole family through generations. This is what I love- building the relationships and adapting to the needs and desires of the clients at that time in their lives. I must tell you, where I've travelled (but I cant tell your a favourite as there are so many destinations that have captured my heart over the years) However Cyprus is where we got married and that will remain a special place, Morocco is the new favourite, however Croatia is also a favourite too! I love a city breaks and loved Dublin, Krakow, Barcelona and my favourite is Amsterdam!When it comes to further a field, Turks and Caicos' has the most beautiful beach I have ever seen, St Lucia, is the most stunning Island and Thailand was full of the most beautiful Culture and the Elephants were just one of those experiences I will never forget and not forgetting the glorious adventures we had in Canada too! A little about what I do in my personal life- I love watching Women's and Men's Rugby, I am a Bath supporter! I love watching F1 and have been to a few races in my time. I love cooking and a bit of gardening, Most of all, I love food and travelling and for me the two go hand in hand! If you would like to experience any of these wonderful places or experiences in the world and beyond.. do get in touch as I would love to help.

Hello fellow travel lovers,I am Sarah Edwards, a Travel Concierge and Events Specialist based in Cobham, Surrey. I design tailor-made holidays and experiences around the world, from family adventures and weekend getaways to destination weddings, luxury honeymoons, surprise engagements, corporate events, and wellness retreats. Whatever the occasion, I love helping clients turn their travel dreams into unforgettable memories.I am also proud to be a Middle East expert, with particular expertise in Oman, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE. Having lived and travelled extensively in the region, I can offer first-hand insight into its rich culture, diverse landscapes, and hidden gems—whether you are seeking a luxurious desert escape, a cultural journey, or a blend of both.Travel has been a lifelong passion of mine that began in childhood with family holidays every school break. From long road trips across Europe to thrilling safaris in South Africa, cruises around the Caribbean, and magical family adventures in Orlando, travel quickly became a defining part of who I am.I grew up in the South of France and speak both English and French fluently. Over the years, I have lived in France, England, Switzerland, the United States, Monaco, and the United Arab Emirates, which has given me a deep appreciation for different cultures and ways of life. Having explored more than 48 countries, I love immersing myself in local traditions, wandering through neighbourhoods, tasting regional dishes, and uncovering hidden gems known only to locals.Before turning my passion into my full-time career, I spent more than 15 years in banking, most recently as a Managing Director and Chief of Staff. During this time, I managed large-scale corporate events, which refined my ability to manage complex logistics, anticipate challenges, and deliver exceptional experiences. I have also run my own wedding planning business, which has given me a deep understanding of the importance of every detail in creating truly memorable and beautifully executed celebrations, allowing me to craft events of all kinds with care and precision.My personal favourite destination is AlUla in Saudi Arabia, a breathtaking and still largely undiscovered region of dramatic desert landscapes, ancient Nabatean tombs, and immersive cultural experiences. It truly is a place like no other.That said, I will always have a soft spot for Provence, where I spent much of my childhood. The rolling lavender fields, charming hilltop villages, and relaxed pace of life keep me returning time and again. It feels like home.Through Travel Counsellors, I have access to a global network of trusted suppliers and exclusive travel products, allowing me to design bespoke holidays and events to suit every style and occasion, all with full financial protection for complete peace of mind.Because I am completely independent and not tied to any supplier, every journey I create is uniquely tailored to you, with impartial advice, personal attention, and care from start to finish.I cannot wait to help you plan your next unforgettable experience.Warmest wishes, Sarah

Hi, I’m Hayley – a Travel Counsellor with over a decade of experience creating unforgettable journeys. Whether it’s a bespoke luxury retreat, a thrilling adventure, or a memory-making family holiday, I specialise in crafting journeys that are as unique as the people taking them.My love for travel began with a solo backpacking trip at 23 and has taken me all over the world. I’ve lived in Australia, trained as a divemaster, and completed more than 250 dives in some of the planet’s most breathtaking locations (from WWII shipwrecks to swimming alongside hammerhead sharks!) These days, I’m embracing a new chapter: family travel. It’s all about blending adventure, ease and a touch of luxury - my five-year-old has no idea how lucky she is :)I genuinely enjoy getting to know my clients – hearing about their favourite destinations, swapping stories, and sharing ideas. Even after ten years in the industry, I’m always discovering new hotels, unique tours, and hidden gems. The best part? When a client sends me photos from their trip and tells me about the memories I have helped create.Whether it’s luxury lounging, wild adventures, or making magical memories with your family, I’ll help you find the perfect trip – tailored to you, with honest advice and zero sales fluff.

Firstly, congratulations for landing safely on my page, which means one of two things, you misspelt ''Kuoni Kettering" in Google, or you’re very serious about your holidays and you're looking for travel done differently. If it's the former, then there isn't one in Kettering (see I'm helping already). If it's the latter, then let's grab a coffee and make a start... It’s a travel service, travel agency type-thingy but it’s different? Essentially yes, it's about fantastic personal service. Which means you can contact me at any time and you'll always get me. It means that I remember that last year you wanted to go to Borneo but your eldest broke his leg on the stupid skateboard that you told your mother she shouldn't buy him for Christmas. I remember that you prefer American Airlines business to BA... because of the ice cream sundaes... Right, well that's all good then. But it's not really just me looking after you and the two of us chatting endlessly on WhatsApp over which is the nicest bit of Bali when I should actually be getting my son ready for school. I'm in cahoots with the multi-award winning Travel Counsellors, a company that provides a global network of travel goodness (GNTG, it's a thing, promise) that means you and I can just relax and get back to discussing Disney Dining packages while they sit quietly in the background, doing what they do. They use their financial muscle so that I can offer you incredible deals, and absolutely guarantee every penny you spend through their financial trust. And as we debate why some of the lounges at Dubai airport really are so much better than others, they’re doing exciting things like the ATOL bonding, and making sure there’s always someone on the end of the phone for you if you need it. No matter what the time, or the time zone. You don’t do ‘normal’ holidays then? I most certainly do but I suppose in essence what I do is make normal trips amazing! That Virgin South Africa trip where you liked everything except day 6 of the itinerary? Then I'll break the whole thing down for you and we'll get rid of 'day at leisure', build in a Blue Safari and repackage it all up for you. I've got access to all the major travel suppliers and can add all the extras too, so the car that means you can get you to Gatwick while you finish the presentation you've been procrastinating over for 3 weeks, or the lounge that takes you closer to gin, and further from the airport Frankie and Benny's. We’ve got this far then, and you’re probably thinking why me? Not in the unexpected-item-in-the-bagging-area-for-the-fourth-time-kinda way, but in the who-is-this-woman-who’s-made-me-a-fake-coffee-and-rambled-on-about-holidays-for-three-paragraphs-kinda-way. I’m Beth (Hi!) Without giving too much away, I started my career in travel back when everyone thought Let Loose were the new NKOTB. Travel makes me me, and I’ve visited dozens of countries across five continents. Bluntly it’s an obsession I bore my husband with every evening. So if it can’t be me experiencing what it’s like to peer over the grand canyon, or feel the bounce of the seaplane skimming the azure that surrounds my paradise Maldivian island then I’ll do all in my power to make it feel for you like it did for me. So, with coffee dwindling and muffin finished (there was a muffin?!), I hope I've given you a sense of what travel done differently with me and with Travel Counsellors can mean.PS: You can contact me about literally any kind of trip, that honeymoon you’re finally planning (can’t believe he took so long to ask you!), that annual cruise around the Caribbean (I’m a bit of a cruise expert/bore to be honest – love a cruise), a romantic weekend getaway to New York, that long imagined Canada road trip, or just a beach to plonk yourself on (anywhere) for two weeks in the Summer.Maybe worth saying as well, there is no fee for my service. The many many travel suppliers I use sort me out, which is why I had a coffee AND a muffin!

If you fell in love with the beauty of Brazil and the stunning scenery of South America while watching the BBC’s Race Across The World…then I could be the perfect Travel Counsellor for you! I grew up to the rhythm of the Samba beat, have been on the best beaches in Rio like The Girl From Ipanema, and have actually sipped cocktails on the roof terrace of The Hotel Unique in São Paulo where the TV celebrity contestants reached one of their destinations. I may come from Brazil, but South America is my passion. Only last year I planned my own solo two-week trip to the wonders of Machu Picchu in Peru. Now, I would love to organise an amazing adventure for you…and unlike the TV stars, I promise not to send you on 21-hour overnight coach trips! Travel and exploration have been in my blood since I left my home and came to the bright lights of London nearly 30 years ago. These days I am happy living in the rolling Chiltern Hills, high above High Wycombe in Bucks, with my three children. But if I am a country girl at heart, I also have a penchant for City breaks across Europe, or once in a lifetime family trips off the beaten track, like sleeping on a river boat in Vietnam. My idea of travel is to indulge in all the senses. Local food and cookery courses; fashion shows, shopping and spas, and of course the history and culture of the people we meet along the way. Studying maps, scanning brochures, and scrolling through endless hotel apps only gets you so far. Having a Travel Counsellor expert on hand, with hot tips on where’s good to go and – just as importantly – where to avoid, can make all the difference. My business background is long and varied, from retail to restaurants, to teaching and healthcare. I have been my own boss and worked in a team, but when I look back the common thread has been dealing with people and delivering the best service, tailor-made to each individual requirement.
