    Katie Clarke

    01926291340 Southam, Warwickshire

    Hello, I'm Katie, and I've recently taken an exciting new step to turn my passion for travel into a career as a Travel Counsellor. I grew up in the beautiful green countryside of Ireland, surrounded by perfect beaches and so much natural beauty, the kind of place that inspires love for adventure and the outdoors. Over the years, I've been lucky enough to explore parts of Europe, including France, Greece, Spain, Portugal, Hungary, Denmark and the Netherlands, and once made it across the Atlantic to New York! Each destination has given me unforgettable memories and a deeper passion for travel. Before starting this journey, I worked in retail, and later qualified as a veterinary nurse and spent many years caring for animals. Caring for people and animals has always come naturally to me, and I love bringing that same care and attention to detail into planning holidays. I'm also a proud mum of two little boys, who remind me every day how precious shared experiences and memories are. I believe travel is one of the best ways to learn about ourselves, it opens our minds, enriches our lives and helps us see the world, and ourselves, in a new light. I'm especially excited to help my clients make memories that will last a life-time, whether it's a romantic escape, a family adventure, or a once in a lifetime trip, I take pride in creating something truly special for every client. Let's make your next holiday one to remember!

I arrange group, leisure and corporate travel to all parts of the world. My areas of speciality include travel to Europe, Southern Africa (especially amazing South Africa where I can offer a range of unique, sustainably focussed experiences that no one else in the UK travel trade offers), and also the Caribbean, United States & Asia.

In partnership with UK charity The Travel Foundation, I have undertaken training on sustainable travel practices, and conducted research into this subject in order to develop a range of tourist experiences in South Africa. These are focussed on ensuring there is the maximum possible economic benefit in the destination, and that this is shared as widely as possible. I am also recognised as a South Africa Specialist by South Africa Tourism in London. If you're looking for something a bit more personal and bespoke than what the high street chains and internet offer, and if you like the idea of having a professional look after your travel arrangements, saving you time, hassle and money. please give me a call for a chat - or send a message from the link on my webpage.Best wishesMichael

    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.

With years of experience in the travel industry and access to an extensive network of over 2000 travel counsellors worldwide, I am here to make your dream trip a reality. Whether you're looking for a relaxing beach retreat, an adventurous safari, or an unforgettable city break, I have the insider knowledge to make it happen seamlessly.Traveling to exotic destinations can come with its own set of challenges and navigating travel logistics can be complex. You might be surprised by some of the details that can make or break a trip. Did you know that: In countries like Italy and France, hotel rooms often don’t include tea and coffee facilities as standard? Or that many hotels in the Hawaii charge resort fees payable upon arrival, something most people aren’t aware of when booking online? In Botswana, for example, many safari camps have private landing strips that aren’t listed on online booking sites, making it difficult to arrange flights without expert help. In Dubai, hotels often expect children to share beds with their parents unless an additional roll-away bed is requested in advance. And if you’re heading to South Africa for a safari, there are specific clothing restrictions to ensure you don’t disturb the wildlife. Long layovers can be an opportunity rather than an inconvenience—airports like Singapore Changi and Istanbul offer free city tours for transit passengers, a perk that many travellers are unaware of.These are the kinds of insights that make all the difference—and why having a travel expert by your side is invaluable.For those seeking unique experiences, I can help you discover unforgettable moments you might not find in a standard guidebook. Imagine waking up in Cappadocia and watching hot air balloons drift by from your terrace at sunrise. Or enjoying breakfast in Kenya while giraffes poke their heads through the windows to say hello. Perhaps you’d like to arrive in New York and take a seven minute helicopter transfer straight to Manhattan, buzzing past the Statue of Liberty? These are the kinds of experiences that turn a holiday into a lifelong memory.When you book with me, you’re not just getting a travel agent—you’re gaining a trusted partner who will take care of every detail. From checking you in and arranging restaurant reservations to organising private tours and ensuring you have a point of contact during your trip, I’ll be with you every step of the way. I only recommend destinations and experiences that meet my own high standards, ensuring that every trip I plan is one I would take myself. And if I haven’t experienced a destination personally, I go the extra mile to conduct thorough research, ensuring it fits your needs perfectly.My clients return time and time again, and I treat every holiday like it’s their dream come true. Whether you have a clear idea of where you want to go or are looking for inspiration, I am here to take the stress out of planning and create an experience that exceeds your expectations.Life is short and the world is wide. So, what are you waiting for? Get in touch to plan your next adventure.

    Laura Hawke

    07540 349902 West Byfleet, Surrey

    Hello, my name is Laura and I am based in West Byfleet, Surrey.My passion for travel started back on 9th May 1995 (that’s right – I remember the exact date!) I was 11 years old and I went on my first long haul flight to Florida. I loved the whole experience. The bustle of the airport, the flight, arriving somewhere I’d never been before, the food and then of course, Disney – I loved it all. I’ll never forget that trip – and come the 9th May each year, I remember “what a holiday!” that was. Money well spent, hey!Fast forward (almost!!) 30 years! I now have 2 children of my own and there is nothing we enjoy more as a family than exploring our wonderful world together. My passion for both travel and customer service is second to none, and having been disappointed on occasions with the service I have received, I’ve thought “I can do this so much better”. So here I am, opening myself up to you as your own personal Travel Counsellor. With the support of the award winning Travel Counsellors brand behind me, I’ll take care of all the details, and you take care of the memories. All safe in the knowledge that everything you book with me is 100% financially protected against supplier failure by either ATOL or the Travel Counsellors Trust, giving you absolute peace of mind. I pride myself on offering a full and comprehensive service. From short to long haul; luxury to low cost; multi destinations to all-inclusive resorts; from sun to ski… and sea to sand! Drawing on my own experiences having travelled extensively around the USA, Europe, the Middle East, Asia, Australia and South Africa, I truly believe I can create the holiday of your dreams, whatever that might be.I like to think I have a ‘few’ specialist areas: • Japan. We lived in the heart of Tokyo with 2 small children who both attended the British School in Shibuya. This was a unique and incredible experience giving us the platform to explore this fascinating part of the world. • USA. From East to West coast; the Sunshine State of Florida to Music City in Nashville; to the lights and sounds of New York to Las Vegas; from Route 66 to Pacific Highway 1! • Disney. Having visited parks in Florida, Paris, and Tokyo, I know a ‘few’ things Disney! • Italy – extensively travelled from North to South. Skiing in the Alps, city breaks in Rome, Venice, Milan and Florence, to private villas in rural towns. • Australia – Perth and the wine region of Margaret River on the West coast… to travelling the East coast from Carins to The Great Barrier Reef; Byron Bay to Sydney. • South Africa - I’ve explored the Garden Route, from Table Mountain in Cape Town, the wine tours of Franschhoek and seeing the Big Five on safari. I truly love all things travel, and with me it really is personal. It's time to make your memories, so give me a call and let's get planning.

    After being in the travel industry for over 30 years, I still get excited when I get a bespoke itinerary to quote on to a new or exotic destination. I started my travel career in corporate travel but soon realised after doing a few holidays for my clients that I loved leisure travel. Over the past twenty years, I have pieced together some amazing trips for customers, from trips on a dogsled to meet Father Christmas in his log cabin under the Northern Lights, Hiking to glaciers in Patagonia's Torres del Paine national park, dream honeymoons on the Eastern & Oriental Express and of course magical Safari's under the African sky to name a few. Having lived in South Africa for more than 20 years, I have been very fortunate to travel to many places in Africa as well as the Indian Ocean Islands, Madagascar, Seychelles and Mauritius and the Maldives.My ability to go the extra mile and pay attention to the detail is what matters most to me and my happiness rests in the knowledge that I have made every available effort to get to know your expectations, personal likes and dislikes as well as your budget. I have access to multiple suppliers to package anything from a weekend away to a round the world trip and with your own TC App, I will be with you all the way.Post Covid, it has become essential to have someone by your side 24/7 to ensure that all bases are covered. Having the assurance of someone that cares about you will give you peace of mind throughout every step of your journey.

  • Carter Laffan

    0207 125 0009 Croydon

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

    Welcome to my page. My name is Anne-Marie Banks and I am a Travel Counsellor based in Redditch (although I am able to book you your dream holiday from wherever you may live!) From a young age I have loved and been passionate about travel. I am lucky enough to have travelled across four continents and explored a wide range of destinations (though there are still many more on my “bucket list”). My first introduction into the work of a Travel Counsellor was as a customer trying to navigate the complexities of a Disneyworld trip. I was so impressed by the advice, service and overall experience that I received, that I was inspired into becoming a Travel Counsellor myself. As your personal advisor I can work with you to tailor make and organise a trip which meets your exact travel requirements; from package holidays to bespoke adventures, from city breaks to ski and snow, from cruises to safaris, I really do have it all covered. I can liaise with you at a time and place which fits into your busy schedule and take time to really understand your needs. Additionally, you yourself can rest easy in the knowledge that you have a single point of contact for all aspects of your trip meaning all the small details that transform a break from “good” to “unforgettable” can be guaranteed. As a busy, working mum I know just how precious holidays are and therefore how important it is to get it absolutely right. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Along the way, as well as visiting the most popular European beach resorts, I’ve cruised the ocean with both P&O Cruises and MSC Cruises, said ‘hi’ to Mickey Mouse in Disney and flown to the other side of the world, to Perth, Western Australia. My favourite trip however was to Thailand, where I did a triple centre stay which included Bangkok, Elephant Hills and then a beach stay in Phuket…Elephant Hills is a fab experience!I take pride in finding the perfect holiday for my clients, as they mean much more to me than just a sales transaction.

    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

    I live in Innellan, Argyll, with my wife, 13 year old son, 2 cats and 2 gerbils, but hail from the Isle of Jura in the Inner Hebrides.I first found my love for travel when I was 20 years old and spent 6 months in New Zealand on a study tour as part of my college course. I got the bug! I then went on to travel around Australia and New Zealand again, with visits to the Cook Islands, Fiji, Hong Kong, and Singapore thrown in. After I met my wife, we set off on an almost 2 year adventure travelling extensively throughout America and Canada before ending up in New Zealand and returning home via Thailand. We also attended a wedding on the west coast of Mexico which was an amazing holiday and we did a transatlantic cruise for my 40th birthday. For my wife's 40th we had an incredible holiday based in Mombassa, Kenya, with a 4 day safari included. Latterly it's been more about family holidays. Visiting Florida, touring British Columbia in Canada by campervan, taking several cruises (Caribbean and Mediterranean) plus of course lots of beach holidays in the Canary Islands and Med. Recently, I decided it was time for a career change and to bring some of my passion for travelling to Travel Counsellors.So why book with me? Here at Travel Counsellors we care more than anyone else.

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

    01843 550 040 Palm Bay, Kent

    My name is Jade and I am a Travel Counsellor from the South East corner of the UK. I have lived close to the coast my whole life, growing up in the seaside town of Ramsgate before moving over to a lovely spot in between the coastal towns of Margate and Broadstairs, where I now live with my partner and our two small children.I was bitten by the travel bug from a young age, as I was fortunate enough to go on lots of lovely family holidays across Europe and the USA. At twenty one I pursued a career in travel and became cabin crew for British Airways, flying all over the world, and landing in some places I had never even heard of! I lived the jet-setter life for a few years before deciding it was time to place my feet back on the ground and continue my travel career but in a new direction. After hanging up my wings, I worked for two high-street agents, Kuoni and TUI respectively. Both companies gave me huge insight and experience into all aspects of travel, from tailor-made adventures to package holidays and UK getaways, I gained so much valuable knowledge during my time on the high-street, which then eventually led me to decide to take the leap and launch my own travel business with Travel Counsellors.I absolutely love being a Travel Counsellor, initially because I loved the flexibility around my children, but now because I love the freedom and flexibility I can offer my clients, too. I am not bound by traditional high-street hours and targets, and my clients like to think of me as their personal travel advisor in their pocket, as I am only ever a WhatsApp message or phone call away.Before I had my children I was a real culture-vulture. For my own holidays I absolutely loved to go off the beaten track and explore little-known places, however my current holidays are now more family-focused, and very occasionally I like to visit an adult-only gem for some precious R&R.There really is no limit to what I can offer, from once-in-a-lifetime long-haul trips to a sight-seeing city break, cruise’s and even a relaxing weekend here in the UK, I have the experience, knowledge and technology to enable your dream holidays to come to life.Everything you book with me is 100% financially protected by Travel Counsellors unique Financial Trust and our ATOL bond. I also do not offer a fee for my services.If I sound like I could be the Travel Advisor for you and you would like help planning your next getaway, please do not hesitate to get in touch. I love nothing more than a Whatsapp or email with holiday ideas and plans!I look forward to hearing from you soon.

    I'm Jess and I have a confession I am completely, unapologetically obsessed with travel.For me, it is not just about flights and hotels. It is about how a trip feels. Who you are going with. Why now is the right time. What memories you will still be talking about years later. That is what I care about.My clients often describe me as personable, organised, straight talking and energetic. I take that as a huge compliment. I am someone people feel comfortable with quickly. I am here to excite you about your plans, but also to keep you calm and confident that everything is handled properly.I ask different questions on purpose. Why this destination? Why this year? Why these people? Because travel is emotional. It marks moments in life. And when you come back, I want to hear about the experiences that gave you goosebumps, not just whether the hotel was nice.I specialise in creating experiential, unforgettable holidays across places like Thailand, Vietnam, Australia, the USA (especially the Deep South), and Egypt. These are the kinds of places where you do not just visit, you feel something. I bring a wealth of knowledge from my own adventures, so I can filter through all the options to find the perfect experiences, hotels, and logistics that match your style, pace, and preferences. What makes me different? My energy. Nothing is too much trouble. From our first conversation to when you are home and reliving the highlights, I am with you the whole way. I want you excited before you have even confirmed the booking.When a client books with me, it genuinely means the world. Trust is everything in travel. I feel proud, excited and fully confident that what we have created together is exactly the right fit. I get just as excited confirming your trip as you do receiving it.You are in safe hands with me. Fully financially protected, supported end to end, and backed by someone who cares deeply about getting it right.If you want peace of mind, expert guidance, and a holiday that truly exceeds expectations, let’s start planning.

    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. Your precious holiday will be in safe hands.
