    My name is Emma and I am a friendly, dedicated Travel Counsellor based in South London. On completion of my university degree I decided to set off on an adventure and explore the world solo, before moving to London to begin my professional journey in travel. Fast forward 10 years and I’ve built myself a successful and fulfilling career in the travel industry. I am so grateful for the opportunities this line of work has given me, and that my expertise has enhanced other people’s travel experiences; It is incredible that I’ve been able to form a profession from what I love doing most in the world. My career thus far has had numerous highlights, including earning my spot on tons of incentive trips all over the world, and winning multiple performance based awards. Having worked in various roles, including management, I have gained insight into the process, product and customer service aspects of the industry. I definitely attribute my success to my underlying passion for travel and learning, but also my love of talking to people and forming relationships - many of my customers feel like friends and being sent holidays snaps from their trips never fails to make me smile.I’ve personally travelled to 47 countries across 6 continents (just Antarctica to get to!) and have specialised in Asia, North & Latin America, the Middle East and Africa, but feel confident that I can tailor the perfect trip in any destination worldwide. I have experience in booking a wide variety of customers, from corporate clients to backpackers, honeymooners to family holidays, and city breaks to long awaited trips of a lifetime. Speaking of corporate clients, I have numerous business accounts within the Media space, assisting with travel for TV and production purposes. I have experience in dealing with VIP/high profile individuals/Influencers and organising large groups; projects so far include Searching for Mexico with Eva Longoria, TOWIE’s season in the Caribbean, and multiple docuseries.As a Travel Counsellor I can’t wait to assist you in all your travel needs (flights, transfers, accommodations, cruises, tours, car hire) whatever they may be. I can be available outside of working hours so as to fit in with your schedules, and am also always happy to meet in person and holiday plan over a coffee (on me) if you’d prefer this to phone/email. I am so excited to hear from yourselves, your families and friends, and am looking forward to creating itineraries that will surpass your expectations and keep our working relationship going for years to come.

  • Annette Allmond

    01865 374758 Oxford

    Hi,My name is Annette and as your Travel Counsellor, I am here to help you find your dream holiday.I am based in Oxford, a beautiful city, and I have worked in travel now for 25 years. Before becoming a Travel Counsellor in August 2000, I worked for a local independent agency and prior to that a well-known high street agency. In this time I have experienced a number of wonderful places including the Caribbean, South Africa, Dubai, Mauritius, Bermuda, Australia, Israel, the Far East, America, Canada and Europe to name but a few! Some of them have been educational trips through work.Whether you are thinking of a weekend break in Paris, a Honeymoon in the Seychelles, an Alaskan Cruise or a family holiday to Disneyland Florida, I have lots of information and helpful tips to make sure your next holiday is exactly what you are after. Importantly I can ensure I give you value for money. I benefit from being part of a large company so their buying power helps me to secure some fantastic deals. I am also independent so not tied to selling any one operator or supplier, so you’ll get more choice and end up with a holiday that is selected because it is right for you.My favourite destination is the Caribbean - closely followed by Mauritius and the Maldives. I am a Caribbean specialist and any chance I have, I try to expand my knowledge even further!! There is such diversity as all the islands are different, so you’ll find something for every taste. I have to admit that personally I go on a lot of sun and sand holidays. However, I also enjoy active holidays such as a South African safari. To stay at Shamwari which is Malaria free and then travel the Garden Route ending up in Cape Town is absolutely amazing!!I pride myself on my excellent customer service and commitment to finding the right holiday for you. I will always go the extra mile for you! The unique concept of having your own Travel Counsellor means you are able to arrange your next dream holiday in the comfort of your own home or office.

    Hi, I’m Sarah I live in Greater Manchester and love hiking. I have a sense of adventure about me! My greatest achievements adventuring would have to be, completing a solo parachute jump in Lancaster many years ago, more recently the Everest Base Camp Trek in Nepal. Reaching base camp and climbing up to the summit of Kala Patthar at 5644m for amazing views of the surrounding Himalayan mountains was truly special. I’m a travel counsellor with 29+ years of experience in travel and tourism. That encompasses working as a reception team leader in hotels and at a professional sports club, as well as being cabin crew for a respected airline for 14 years travelling the world. I have been a travel agent/tour operator for four years prior to joining Travel Counsellors. My favorite destinations I have been to, would be Japan, Costa Rica, Mexico, Vietnam, Cambodia, New Zealand and Canada. My number one spot, must go to Chile having seen the glaciers in Patagonia and visited Easter Island (Rapa Nui) to see the Moai was just outstanding. I love multiple destinations for different reasons. Florida is my absolute favorite place to go with kids; you have the weather/water-parks/theme parks/child friendly restaurants and numerous other attractions. What’s not to love! So why book with me: I can’t say I’ve been everywhere, but I’ve been to a lot of destinations and have a passion for curating multi destination complex itineraries. I create personalized authentic travel experiences. I want to provide you and your travelling party with lasting memories and inspire your journey, whether you want an adventure or to laze around a pool in the sunshine for rest & recuperation from your busy life!I’m just on the end of multiple forms of communication from the inquiry stage right the way through until you return home. I’m highly organised with the onus on attention to detail and will have provided you with everything you need. However, should you have any questions or need any assistance I will be there for you - no chat-bot, no auto phone prompts, I’m there if or when you need me. I will stay positive, care about your current situation and do my upmost to find options and solutions.If you don’t know much about Travel Counsellors, we’ve won multiple awards and are rated 5* on Trust Pilot reviews.

With most of my career spent in technology sales, I’m genuinely delighted to bring that experience to my work as a Travel Counsellor. The advanced systems at my disposal make it easier than ever to create, tailor, and seamlessly manage memorable holidays for my clients, all presented through our innovative myTC app. This technology allows me to focus on what really matters providing excellent customer service, ensuring you enjoy a smooth, enjoyable experience from our very first conversation.

    01332 438717 Derbyshire

    Welcome to Travel Counsellors! It's a real pleasure to introduce myself and I'm really looking forward to hearing about your travel aspirations!I had one dream as a young man: Travel the world to learn and experience as much about this beautiful planet as I possibly could. I began that quest by achieving a Diploma in Travel Studies and in the years that passed, the desire to fulfil my mission never diminished. I 'backpacked' whenever and wherever the mood took me and built my industry knowledge working extensively within the world of travel agencies, airlines and tour operations over many years. Experiencing life living in places such as Australia, Greece, Cyprus and 9 years in Spain only served to enhance this knowledge.Fast forward to present day and, as an independent Travel Counsellor, I now have the opportunity to give something back to my customers. Relying on decades of experience to help them choose, plan and execute their travel dreams is the greatest of pleasures. I care about what and where they book with me and I just love listening to their stories when they return home. Your holiday is my holiday too. My service is bespoke. It is tailored to those looking for a service that gives them an experience from the very first conversation and removes the 'transactional' nature of booking a trip. I have access to fares and pricing that are not always available to traditional agents and you're not restricted by 'pre-packaged' deals, which don't always fully cater for what you really want. Knowing that someone cares about your plans and is there for you throughout the whole process, brings you a service that is second to none.Finally, a Travel Counsellor booking is 100% financially protected. No ifs, no buts! Just peace of mind from the very beginning.Take a look at some of the great itineraries below for inspiration and/or send me a message about where your travel dreams are leading you next. I'd love the opportunity to talk with you about how I can help you turn them into a reality alongside industry leading service.

    With almost 30 years’ experience in the travel industry, I look forward to helping you with your travel arrangements whether that be a short break in the UK, a weekend in a stylish European city, a cruise or even a round the world holiday of a lifetime.I live in Manchester with my husband and two children, my daughter Madison who has now graduated from University and is living the start of her adult life. Jaxon is my musical child playing 3 instruments (drums, guitar and piano) plus he competes in Trampoline.I have worked for various travel agencies. My first one was Going Places many moons ago, and I was bitten by the travel bug. I have worked for a large tour operator and also worked for a corporate business travel house. I left travel briefly to work in the family business, however I found I missed it terribly as travel really is my passion and when I decided that I wanted to go back, there really was only one company I would consider going to and that was Travel Counsellors. They are the best of the best. I have been lucky to have travelled a lot in my lifetime including Europe, Caribbean, USA including Las Vegas, which is one of my favourite places, Dubai, The Maldives, The Far East including Singapore and Thailand. I took my mother to Thailand for her 50th Birthday, she says it was a trip of a lifetime for her. I have been to Australia and the French Polynesian islands including Bora Bora where I worked as a holiday program presenter for a well-known Travel Tour Operator. I have done several cruises and I also achieved captain status award for Royal Caribbean/Celebrity Cruises and Azamara by completing all their product training. One of my ultimate favourite trips was Christmas Eve 2015 I took my children and my mum to Lapland to search for the real Father Christmas, it was magical.A lot of people ask me what my favourite holiday is to organise, and I have to say that an multi-centre holidays get me excited, trying to fit all the pieces together is like a fabulous puzzle. Travel Counsellors have a high standard of customer care and this is one of the most important things for me, I always will go the extra mile for you as my customers, so if there is anything I can do to make your trip even more special please do ask and if it’s in my power, then you can consider it done.A lot of people think using a personal travel advisor is going to cost them a lot more but I can tell you it doesn’t and the best part of all is you have the peace of mind of having someone at the end of the phone if something doesn’t quite go to plan and that is really priceless.I really do look forward to hearing from you and helping you your next trip whatever that may be or wherever that may take you.

    Lianna Shea

    01621 670064 Colchester

    Hello! I’m Lianna, an independent travel advisor based in Essex. I have more than 20 years’ experience of working with some of the industry’s leading leisure and corporate travel companies, and I’m passionate about sharing my expertise with my clients.Helping you to book your dream break is so much more than researching flights and hotels – it’s about ensuring that every moment of your valuable time off is relaxing, enjoyable and memorable. From checking you in for your flights, pre-booking seats, securing your preferred meal choice and confirming your transfer is ready and waiting when you arrive, no stone is left unturned. What’s more, I’m committed to finding you the best possible price for your trip. Think of me as your personal concierge, able to oversee room allocation, make dinner reservations and book day trips. I’ll even ensure Ed Sheeran turns up at the bar to serenade you and your partner on honeymoon (ok – the last point might be a bit of a stretch, but you get the general idea!)

I am based in Newbold and offer both in person and online travel services that are bespoke to you and your holiday.

I have travelled the world extensively from a young age and my love of travel has taken me to many far-flung destinations including backpacking in Australia to cruising around the Norwegian Fjords. I have been lucky in my youth to have also lived and worked in several destinations of which I have a few highlights:- Spending 2 years in Southern Egypt including exploring the Nile Delta and Cairo. One of my particular highlights was exploring the Tomb Of The Kings...I am a bit of a history buff so this felt so special and is truly to be seen to be believed. - Working alongside Santa himself in Finnish Lapland and spending my days on husky and reindeer rides, snow mobiles and seeking the Northern Lights. There's something just purely magical about seeing the Northern Lights from a frozen Arctic lake.- Working on theatrical tours that took us to stunning destinations such as the Swiss Alps and Hong Kong. Experiences such as performing at the Royal Hong Kong Yacht Club and being a 'survivor' at their 24 hour party will stay with me for life.- Exploring Tasmania from top to toe…From wine regions to hiking up mountain ranges to white water rafting it was quite the adventure! This wilderness destination is a must for your bucket list!Each destination along the way has given me a deeper understanding of the local culture, people and the many ways in which to explore. I am a huge advocate of emerging and engaging oneself into local life and I can assist you in truly doing this on your next getaway.In the past few years, I have specialised in cruise holidays, and I have been fortunate enough to travel on and explore various cruise lines and routes that I can happily help guide you to the perfect fit. I have sailed with a number of lines including Cunard, Fred Olsen, Ambassador, Royal Caribbean and my next cruise is with Celebrity where we will be exploring Malaysia, Thailand and Indonesia. Travel has always been more than just a hobby for me; it’s a way of life. I’ve built a career out of inspiring others to discover the joy and transformation that comes from exploring the world. Whether it’s your first time abroad or your fiftieth, whether it’s a Caribbean cruise or a weekend in Whitby, I love helping travellers create unforgettable getaways. When you plan your holiday with me, you’ll get far more than just a travel agent. I’ll take the time to truly get to know you, your interests, your priorities, your needs and I will tailor make your hand-picked recommendations. I’ll ensure that your holiday is entirely personalised and catered to you. Having lived and travelled extensively around the world I understand that travel is not one-size-fits all. Some of us crave tranquillity and relaxation, others want adventure and to immerse ourselves in a destination. Together, we will design a trip that reflects you and your personality that hopefully you will love. So let’s start planning your next adventure together, that’s designed around you.

My role as a personal travel consultant is to remove the stress from planning while creating unforgettable travel experiences.Over the last eight years, Maslen Tailormade Travel has grown thanks to the continued support of my clients. Repeat bookings, referrals and word-of-mouth recommendations have allowed the business to grow naturally, and I’m incredibly grateful for that trust.

I focus on creating personalised trips rather than off-the-shelf packages, taking time to understand how my clients want to travel. As a parent of three, I understand the realities of travelling as a family, particularly for larger families, and I use that first-hand experience to plan holidays that are practical, enjoyable and well balanced.The last few years have shown just how important it is to have a trusted Travel Counsellor looking after your holiday.

Having an experienced travel professional on your side offers reassurance and clarity when plans change, and that level of support remains a key part of my service.My passion for travel began early, inspired by family trips to destinations such as New York, Rome, Paris and Australia. Those experiences sparked a lifelong curiosity for discovering new places and cultures. I’ve now travelled to over 49 countries and continue to explore whenever possible. First-hand experience plays a vital role in how I work, particularly when planning complex or multi-centre itineraries. The USA is one of my key specialist destinations. I’ve visited over 20 times and explored 20 different states, with Florida and Walt Disney World being firm family favourites. I’ve also experienced road trips, major cities and national parks, including recent family trips to Yellowstone National Park and California.Abbie shares the same passion for travel and exceptional service. She has already visited 22 countries and counting, with experience across Europe, Asia and long-haul destinations.

I offer a bespoke, personal service backed-up by years of experience in the travel industry. I have the instincts to recognise what clients want as well as the knowledge of how to find the best bookings for them. The Travel Counsellors network provides all the support necessary to make sure that through me you will receive the best possible care and the best possible deals.In my time I have been lucky enough to travel across almost every continent on the planet – Antarctica remains a goal for the future! My favourite part of the world remains the Far East; not least because it brings back happy memories from my honeymoon in Burma but also due to wonderful trips to Cambodia, Borneo and Thailand amongst others. The levels of service, care and attention to detail that you receive as a guest in the Far East always amazes me and always has me longing to go back.In addition to the Far East I have travelled through India, Australia and New Zealand, the Amazonian rain forest and the Masai Mara. The two most striking places that I have visited must be the awe-inspiring Angkor Wat in Cambodia and Utah’s Monument Valley – not least due to its complete contrast to nearby Las Vegas.It’s not just exotic holidays that I can help you with. I also have extensive knowledge of European destinations as well as within the British Isles and I am here to help you with every type of booking.Like you I expect the highest standards when I travel.

    Hey! I'm Kerry and I'm so excited to be your personal Travel Counsellor. I live in Stevenage, Herts with my husband, son and our beautiful frenchie Dexter. Travel is my absolute passion and I take pride in not just going the extra mile but exceeding all expectations for my clients and creating them the perfect itinerary to suit their needs. I have been fortunate enough to have visited some truly wonderful places around the world, including Florida, Mexico, Cyprus, Greece, Spain, Dominican Republic, Budapest, Belgium, Holland and many more.... I have been lucky enough to tick Canada & cruising off my wish list, first with a trip to Toronto and the very stunning Niagara Falls, which I would highly recommend. Secondly, a fantastic Norwegian Fjords cruise on the Disney Dream and it really was a dream come true. My absolute favourite place to be is Florida, well Orlando to be more exact, to me Orlando is so much more than the theme parks, when I am there, it feels like home. I have also travelled a little further on to Tampa and Clearwater but would really love to head over to the Florida Keys at some point to.Having worked in travel for more than 25 years, I have extensive experience in arranging package holidays including Walt Disney World, Disneyland Paris, Lakes & Mountains, city breaks such as New York, Paris, Belgium, Amsterdam. Being an independent Travel Counsellor means that I am able to offer and abundance of travel options from long haul to short haul destinations worldwide, cruise, accommodation, car rental and attraction tickets, whilst providing you with a personal, yet professional booking experience from start to finish. You will also have complete assurance that every element of your holiday is 100% financially protected through our independent financial trust and ATOL.I have a whole load of destinations that I still wish to visit and explore such as India, more Canada, Thailand, and my dream is to take a helicopter ride over the Grand Canyon, one day soon, I hope. So, when you're thinking of planning your next trip, I would love to help you turn your dream holiday into a reality, I'd really love to hear from you ~ Dalai Lama: "Once a year, go someplace you've never been before"I look forward to speaking to you very soon Kerry x

    Hello and a big thank you for taking the time to visit my webpage, I love to travel and by visiting this webpage hopefully you do too! I am a highly experienced travel agent based in Macclesfield, Cheshire, with global destinations at my fingertips.I trust you will find the below introduction helpful and that I can inspire you to pick up the phone or drop me a line for a chat about where in the world next awaits you.My passion for travel really took off when I booked a round the world flight ticket in 1997. I largely lived, worked and travelled in Australia, also taking in Fiji and Hawaii on the way home. I have always loved adventure and this opened a whole new world of excitement, experiences and many life-long friends.Ever since, I have been fortunate to travel to many worldwide destinations and experience some magical places. From mountaineering and jungle trekking in Borneo, cruising the Egyptian Nile and riding donkeys to the Valley of the Kings, snowboarding and husky sledding in Canada, scuba diving with sharks in Fiji, hang gliding in Brazil, safaris in Kenya, honeymooning in Zanzibar, crayfish parties in Sweden, to road trips across the USA taking in some of the most breath-taking scenery imaginable.One of my favourite memories is proposing to my wife whilst scuba diving in Tobago, using an underwater slate and a makeshift ring. Thankfully she ticked the ‘Yes’ box and we returned to the surface to cheers from our fellow dive buddies. As of 2018 there are 195 countries in the world and I find it amazing that whilst I feel well travelled, I know I have only really scratched the surface (and occasionally gone underneath when diving!) To fuel my passion for travel, I worked for seven years for two bespoke travel companies, immersing myself further into new destinations, sharing my knowledge and experience and what it can do for the human spirit. I am highly experienced helping business and leisure travellers, designing bespoke trips whilst offering an exceptional level of care and service, whatever your travel requirements and aspirations, big or small. I am available 24/7, before, during and after your trip, to help and assist with recommendations and solving those unforeseen hiccups.In a world of computers, robots and technology, there is still nothing like a personal touch. Let me help take you on your next journey and make it an even more memorable experience.

    01637 440 005 Cornwall

    Whether you are booking a quick trip to Europe, at home in the British Isles or planning something special long haul, I can provide you with a quality holiday or business trip with the great attention to detail that is vital in making the trip memorable.I have recently relocated, with my two children and two dogs, back to the UK to live in the beautiful region of Cornwall. Having spent the last 27 working in the travel and hospitality industry living and working in Greece, whilst spending many of my winters in Australia, becoming a Travel Counsellor has given me the perfect opportunity to use my wealth of knowledge doing what I love here. I grew up as a Captains daughter so travel was really in my blood and have always lived close to the sea wherever I have been. My parents were extensively travelled before we were even born and we grew up with tales of Singapore and the Far East, and the wilderness of the African jungle, with my father living ten years in South Africa. My own love affair with travel started over thirty years ago when I moved to Athens at a young age to start my adventures there. I spent many years travelling the country selecting accommodation for an upmarket specialist and have spent the last 12 years running a country retreat for walkers and lovers of the rural countryside on the island of Crete, and have an instinctive understanding of the needs of the more discerning and independent traveller.I look forward to helping you plan anything from the trip of a lifetime to a quick weekend away and can assist you with every aspect of your trip, as well as adding some amazing diversions to enhance any trip you are planning.Although I have contacts and knowledge of a great many places my expertise lies in Greece, I also have a vast knowledge of Australia having spent nearly 2 years of my life there spread over nearly 20 years.With the flexibility of working outside office hours and always being on the end of the phone, it is like having a personal travel agent in your pocket!

    Colette Cooper

    020 3627 4970 South East London

    Hi, I’m Colette — your local Travel Counsellor in Dulwich.I’ve lived and worked in this brilliant part of London for over 20 years, but my real qualifications were earned elsewhere — usually with a backpack, a questionable plan, and a very strong sense of curiosity.I’ve been travelling for over 40 years, long before travel became filtered, airbrushed, and reduced to “top ten must-sees”. My career began in a Greek campsite, peeling potatoes to pay my way — which may not sound glamorous, but it was the moment I fell headfirst into a life of travel.I’ve always travelled properly. And occasionally… bravely.Like in St Anton, where my enthusiastic-but-terrible learner skier self-misjudged a mountain and ended up hitching a ride down on the back of an Olympic skier. Not recommended. Unforgettable.In the Caribbean, I’ve lived the rhythm — salsa dancing under the stars, street dancing during Jump Up in Castries, St Lucia, and learning to roll cigars on my (then younger, thinner, sun-kissed) thighs in Cuba. Research, obviously.I’ve crossed the USA coast to coast on a Greyhound bus, watching the scenery shift from neon city lights to vast, wide-open plains — proof that sometimes the journey really is the point.Asia is where it all really comes alive.In Cambodia, I’ve explored ancient temples, rattled through villages in tuk-tuks, stayed in homestays, and hopped between restaurants and hidden bars on the back of a motorcycle — the best seat in the house.In India, it’s been forts and palaces, ancient history and colourful mayhem — a sensory overload of incense, spices, chaos and beauty, all somehow working in perfect harmony.I’ve surrendered to wellness retreats in Bali and Thailand, floated through the tranquil backwaters of Kerala, and perfected the art of doing absolutely nothing on the beaches of Malaysia, Goa and the Andaman Ocean.This isn’t tick-box travel - this is lived, breathed, slightly chaotic, joy-filled experience.So why travel with me?Because I don’t sell holidays — I design them, using decades of real-world experience and a very good understanding of what makes a trip unforgettable for you.What you get that the internet can’t:• A real human who actually listens • Honest advice (no algorithms, no upselling) • Tailor-made trips — never off-the-shelf • One calm, capable point of contact before, during and after you travelOnline booking won’t help you when flights change, seats disappear or plans wobble. I will. I’m available evenings, weekends — even holidays — because travel rarely behaves itself.Whether it’s a simple hotel stay, a family escape, a solo adventure, or something wonderfully different — like a village homestay, a food-focused itinerary, or a wellness hideaway tucked into Bali’s foothills — I’ll craft it around your style, your pace and your budget.Everything you book with me is 100% financially protected through the Travel Counsellors financial trust — so you can relax and enjoy the fun bits.No bots. No hold music. No “please listen carefully”. Just thoughtful, personal service — with experience, humour, and a healthy sense of adventure.Let’s turn your travel dreams into plans. I’m ready when you are.

    My name is Megan, and I’ve been in the travel industry for 10 years, working in multiple departments from Admin and Customer Care, to Marketing, to Sales.Now owning my own travel business, I have two that keep me driven… 1. My obsession with finding new and unique properties, ships and experiences around the world 2. Using that knowledge to act as match-maker for my clientsI love the task of getting to know you, so that I can filter down our bank of over 750,000 hotels worldwide to your perfect match (…plus many more we can source through both household name and trade-only travel brands). I get to know what really matters, which booking sites do not; which airline your partner refuses to fly with, the fact your teenager has a huge fear of heights, restrictive dietary needs, medical considerations, and even just the “I hate buffets” stuff – All so I can create a trip around you.My mission statement is that your holiday is precious, both financially and emotionally – So with me, it will be built with you in mind, rather trying to shoehorn you into an existing package.My personal service comes at no extra charge to yourself, as I am compensated by one of over 300 holiday suppliers or 750,000 hotels I book your travel with – Giving me the freedom to shop for the product that’s right for you. Once booked, you will never go through to a call centre. I am available pre-travel, during, and post-travel for anything you may need, accessible by WhatsApp. Be that passport queries, airport parking, restaurant bookings, or *touch wood!* travel disruption, I am both your concierge and companion throughout.My hidden talent? I love the finer things, but also a fabulous deal. If this sounds like you, let’s chat!Areas of expertise: Japan - Maldives - Mauritius - South Africa - Thailand - Cruise - Unique Stays

    Planning a holiday can feel overwhelming - from countless tabs and endless research to juggling family needs and finding the right experiences for everyone. That’s where I come in.I’m Rebecca - self-confessed travel addict and your personal guide to unforgettable holidays. Based in North London, I specialise in crafting tailor-made trips for families, professionals, and adventure seekers throughout the UK. I design holidays that are stress-free, seamless, and full of memories, ensuring every moment of your journey is perfectly planned for you. When you work with me, you’ll never have to worry about the details. I handle everything from researching destinations and finding the best flights, to booking accommodation, planning activities, and providing 24/7 support while you’re away.Travel has been my passion for as long as I can remember. As a child, I spent hours poring over holiday brochures, dreaming of faraway places and adventures. That curiosity never faded. Over the past two decades, I’ve explored 49 countries (and counting!), from bustling street food markets in Thailand and Vietnam, to tranquil beaches in Bali and Malaysia; from the cultural richness of India and Sri Lanka, to safaris across Southern Africa and the snow-dusted magic of Lapland. I’ve wandered through ancient cities in China, hiked dramatic landscapes in New Zealand, and gathered all the top tips you’ll need for Disney in Orlando and Paris. Each journey has deepened my understanding of what makes a holiday truly special, and what can make it stressful if not planned right.Whether it’s a luxury family escape, a small group adventure, a multi-generational trip, or a once-in-a-lifetime safari, I design holidays around your needs. I know first hand the joys and challenges of travelling with children. As a mum, I understand how family needs evolve - what works for toddlers won’t always suit teens, and different generations often have different ideas of fun. From flights that maximise sleep, to accommodation that keeps everyone comfortable, to activities that engage all ages, I make sure your trip works for every member of the family. My goal is simple: to create holidays that are as relaxing and joyful for parents as they are inspiring and exciting for children.My expertise doesn’t stop at family travel. For adventure travellers, I work closely with leading small group operators such as Intrepid Travel, G Adventures, and Exodus, with no extra cost to you when booking through me. If you prefer to set your own pace, I can tailor every detail to suit your interests and sense of adventure, from exploring hidden corners of Southeast Asia, to tracking wildlife on safari, or venturing off the beaten track in Australia or New Zealand.With 19+ years in the travel industry and nearly a decade as a Travel Counsellors, I am proud to be one of our Top 100 Gold Advisors. I combine personal insight with professional connections, giving my clients access to trusted partners, insider tips, and experiences you won’t find online. I guide you from the first spark of inspiration, right through booking, pre-travel prep, and 24/7 support while you’re away.I love what I do because it’s never just “a holiday.” It’s the laughter of a family reunited on a beach, the awe of a first safari sighting, the quiet joy of seeing your children experience a culture or adventure you’ve dreamed of for them. These moments are why I travel myself, why I keep learning, and why I’m passionate about sharing the world with my clients.So, if planning your next holiday feels overwhelming, let’s talk. I’ll listen, I’ll guide, and I’ll take care of the details so all you need to do is enjoy the journey. Call me on 0203 432 4720 or email rebecca.berzins@mytc.com and let’s start creating your next unforgettable adventure.

It really is a big wide world out there.We as a company have great relationships with an array of travel suppliers and can without a doubt offer you some of the best deals around, from suppliers which most high street agents do not have access to. So what's it to be? A cruise down the Nile? A relaxing Caribbean break? Skiing down the snowy slopes? Or singing to the sound of music in Austria? Whatever your holiday needs may be, I can arrange them. I have always loved dealing with group bookings and have wonderful memories of meeting new people and the fabulous countries I have visited with the groups. Please let me make those holiday brochure dreams a reality for you.I really do look forward to hearing from you.Tracy “The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page.” - St. Augustine

In fact, I could categorically say Florida is my second home, having been there at least once a year, for the past 20 years! I have worked very closely over the years with Disney, Universal and SeaWorld and would be absolutely delighted to create you a bespoke itinerary for your Florida adventure as I know only too well what a daunting experience this can be for first-time visitors. I am also no stranger to New York, Las Vegas, San Francisco, Los Angeles, New Orleans, Dallas, Chicago and even St Louis (and yes, I did lie beneath the arch)!But of course, it’s not all about the USA, Europe is another big favourite of mine – particularly Spain, France (where I was lucky enough to study) and the Greek Islands. I also visited for the first time this year Mexico and it was certainly love at first sight. Those beaches just blow your mind! In fact, if you are looking for something special in Mexico I will let you into a little secret - please just ask and I will be delighted to share!So hopefully you can sense I am passionate about travel and nothing would give me more pleasure than to create the perfect, bespoke holiday package just for you.

    Helen Maltby

    01908 980018 Milton Keynes

    Hi! My name is Helen and I live in Milton Keynes. I set up my own travel business after leaving my previous career in teaching. I wanted to do something that made people smile and after all, that is what holidays are all about. I was also blown away by the ethos of the company and the fact that with Travel Counsellors, it IS personal. I won’t try and sell you the holiday that a specific company wants me to sell. I will help to create the holiday that YOU want instead. As a Travel Counsellor I have access to destinations and experiences all over the world.I absolutely love cruising – both travelling and selling. A cruise is also fantastic way to holiday and I particularly love Northern European cruising and all things Scandinavia. I am also proud to be a member of CLIA (Cruise Lines International Association) with Masters Accreditation.If you've thought cruising is only for the older generation then it is time to rethink. My favourite, and most sailed cruise line is Disney Cruise Line. If you think they are just for families, then think again - the best cruise I did without the children was a Disney one :)One of my other top destinations is the Maldives which I visited for my honeymoon - absolute bliss! My favourite city destination is New York and I can give great advice on Broadway shows to see while you are there. One of my most travelled parts of the world is Scandinavia and whether you want to visit in the summer or winter, want a nature or city break, I can advise you on where to go and when.I can also help if you need advice when travelling with autistic adults or children. I am autistic and my son who is also autistic has grown up going to Disney and cruising. Both of these types of holiday can be scary for someone who is autistic and I can help you navigate things so you can be best prepared for your holiday.However, whatever you are interested in, big or small, I can help as I have a team of experts around me to draw on. I will listen to what you want and then create an itinerary that is perfect for you. I think the personal touch is really important and if you are local then I’m more than happy to meet you in your home or your office - or even a nice coffee shop. As I’m not in the high street I am free to work around you.By booking with Travel Counsellors you are getting access to a wider range of choice than you will with high street travel agents. You will also be dealing with me rather than a call centre. I will take all of the stress and strain out of the holiday from searching for amazing excursions to checking you in at your resort. We have people on the ground at resorts all over the world who will be there to help you 24/7: they are locals who really understand the destination. Should something go wrong you can be assured that our 24/7 team based in Manchester will sort you out if you can’t get hold of me.We are ATOL affiliated and have the best financial protection in the industry – during the pandemic every Travel Counsellor customer received a 100% refund. No vouchers here!I look forward to helping you create your next set of memories and fulfilling your travel dreams.
