  • Mike Bridges

    01706 507620 Rossendale

    Hi,I am Mike Bridges - I have worked in travel for 36 years with the last 16 as a Travel Counsellor. In that time I have seen a radical change in how travel is sourced, so much so that I am now more of a tour operator than a travel agent, putting together bespoke packages to long haul destinations such as Australia, South Africa, U.S.A., the far east as well as all over Europe and the middle East. I also arrange corporate travel for my business clients.I have personally travelled extensively to most of these destinations over the years both as a consumer on family holidays and also as a delegate on educational/travel agency visits. Some of the places I have visited include:I have particular expertise in the Australian travel market, having just been awarded the status of Premier Aussie Specialist by Tourism Australia.If you are seeking a personalised service from an experienced independent agent/operator then be sure to contact me for:That overseas wedding, your own or as a guest That special weekend treat Where to take some foreign visitors for a typical English experience That exciting first trip abroad The holiday of a lifetime That special cruise to mark your birthday, anniversary, retirement The annual family summer holiday - compare and contrast places, hotels and prices - The winter sports holiday The long haul trip The holiday ‘where you are looked after’ by a resident tour guide Arranging that conference abroad PA’s booking hotels, airlines, meetings for your boss Visiting that trade exhibition in EuropeThese are just a few of the services I can offer you but in short your travel needs become my personalised concern - let me take the hassle away from your time consuming surfing on the net, that thumbing through brochures - leave it to someone who knows - ring for a discussion and together we will create your holiday experience.I look forward to hearing from you soon…

    Dawn Lloyd

    01661560038 Northumberland

    Hi, I'm Dawn and I live in a small town called Prudhoe in the beautiful county Northumberland in North East England. I've been a successful business owner for the past twenty years prior to which I had a fourteen year career working in travel as an overseas representative and manager. This career gave me the fortune to work alongside some of the biggest brands in the industry allowing me to follow my life long dream of visiting fantastic destinations such as The Caribbean Islands (in particular Antigua & Barbados), Kenya, Tunisia, Greece, Spain & the Canaries, North America and many more destinations. Just lately myself and my husband have built a campervan (called Vera) and have recently completed a fantastic tour of Northern Scotland called the North Coast 500, which I have to say was another amazing adventure to add to my collection (and hopefully we have many more to come). That was a little about my past, so let me tell you about my next exciting adventure as a Travel Counsellor. "What are Travel Counsellors" I hear you say, well let me explain. Travel Counsellors are the people who care about you and your holidays, we are the type of people that go above and beyond to make your dream holiday a reality. We can help you throughout the whole booking process ensuring that you are fully finance protected and giving you a peace of mind experience along with 24/7 support. Being a Travel Counsellor allows me to give my customers the highest quality service and the care that they deserve. This may sometimes come at a higher price however these are memories that will be with you forever, and I would love to be the Travel Counsellor to help you to achieve them.

  • Ray Roberts

    01483 284 304 Surrey

    Welcome! Bienvenue! Willkommen!Living mainly in Surrey, I also spend time in Beaujolais (near Lyon) and adore the fact that both are in the beautiful countryside, yet within easy reach of wonderful cities.Travel has always been my passion. I started working in a major tour operator where, during 8 years, I learnt all about creating package holidays. Then I moved into the more demanding world of corporate events – constructing and delivering programmes on all continents with a much greater focus on outstanding service.Over the past three decades my work has earned several national and European industry awards, but more importantly, it has provided invaluable experience of the art of travel (whether by air, sea, rail or road) and knowledge of an amazing range of countries, destinations and cultures.With travel, the key is not learning how to get it right, but how to avoid getting it wrong!The most rewarding aspect of my work has always been the reactions of participants after experiencing a programme that I helped to create.Now I want to deliver similar experiences for individuals who want to avoid the hassle of high street travel shops, or endless online searching with little advice on what may or may not suit. Our sophisticated IT systems give me access to the widest imaginable range of flights, hotels, transport and sightseeing options. I can, therefore, provide you with great value, coupled with truly impartial advice.The little touches make all the differencePackages can consist of so many features, and yet I know very well that small things add more pleasure and delight than the effort involved in arranging them.Of which happy memories are made….It doesn’t need to be a complicated itinerary or far-away destination. You may want a holiday in Europe, a wedding/honeymoon package, a family gathering or simply a short break. You’ll get 100% effort from me to tailor-make your arrangements – at no extra cost, with no stress or hassle. Plus everything I book is fully insured and financially protected (payments are held in separate trust accounts).Give me a call at any time, or drop me a message. You deserve the maximum value and enjoyment – I can help you get it.

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.

Imagine being no more than 2 feet away from a pride of lions, including 5 frolicking cubs, at Ngorongoro Crater in Tanzania as we quietly watched from the safety of our vehicle or a kill in South Africa? The list is endless and YES… I can take you there. You want to know the person you are booking your travel with, has all the right tools at their fingertips to act swiftly for their clients - yes that is me your personal Travel Counsellor !The travel industry has had some very challenging times and I have been there for my clients throughout their travel affected by the ash cloud, the pandemic, 9/11, the tsunami, tour operator and airline collapses, in fact I would not be a multi award winning travel expert if had not been there for my clients every step of the way – you should never be abandoned if something goes wrong.

I love to personally communicate with my clients on a friendly, unbiased one to one basis and most importantly listen to what you are wanting and ask the right questions !I look forward to speaking to you soon...

From coordinating complex itineraries to managing last-minute changes, I pride myself on providing clear communication and fast, reliable solutions. My corporate clients often tell me they value my thoroughness, approachability, and the confidence that everything is handled professionally. As a few of my clients have kindly said, “Fergus always finds time to listen and respond efficiently,” “he makes the whole process smooth and clearly communicated,” and “he’s very knowledgeable and always able to provide a solution.” Those words mean the world to me because they capture exactly what I aim for with every booking – friendly, professional service with a personal touch. Whether you’re planning a luxury beach break, an adventurous dive trip, or managing business travel for your team, I’d love to help make your journey effortless from start to finish.

    Hello there… Thanks for visiting the Travel Counsellors website and my page in particular. I found this Portuguese proverb the other day and it made me laugh - “When the boss is away, work becomes a holiday” - Well, that sorts out a few weeks of the year but what about when it’s your turn for a holiday? I’ve been a Travel Consultant for many years; and before that I trained and worked in hotel management so I understand that travel and holidays are thrilling purchases, and yet can be tinged with a tad of apprehension – have you chosen the right destination? Will it stand up to the glossy pictures? Will it be a good investment and provide you with happy memories for years to come? I can honestly say that by booking through me, with all the knowledge and expertise that I can tap into; we can get you just the holiday you want from package deals to tailor made travels. I absolutely love travelling and holidaying, so I’ve got plenty of personal information to help you make an educated decision as to where and how to spend your hard earned holiday time. Here are my top favourites: Las Vegas - love the adrenalin rush at the tables Dubai - breathtakingly opulent Barbados - for ultimate relaxation Key West - warm welcomes await and Key Lime Pie to die for What are yours I wonder? Let’s have a chat and sort out some great destinations, sights and experiences for you? I’m local to South Cheshire – and because I have independent status I’m on call to answer your queries whenever you need me – at home, or on your travels. It won’t be long before you are having the time of your life on holiday. I wonder if the boss will miss you…? I can also arrange all your holiday extras including travel insurance, foreign exchange, airport parking and transfers.

    Whether you are planning a chic city break, family getaway, honeymoon escape or once in a lifetime adventure I am here to make the whole experience seamless.I pride myself on offering genuine advice you can trust every time. No matter how big or small, I always manage your trip with the same attention to detail as I would my own. Through the years I have built up a 'little black book' of hotel, supplier and airline connections, all my contacts are invaluable when offering my clients that extra VIP touch or requesting that room with the best view.I have been a travel agent for over 19 years, but my real passion for travel started as a child. Before my five siblings and I were born, my parents travelled extensively. I can remember sitting for hours flicking through the enormous photo albums from their travels throughout Europe and on to Asia. Maybe it was the glamour of the 70s VW Camper set into the Italian Alps, or my parents in their matching Ray-Ban’s at the top of the Great Wall... either way, I was hooked and couldn’t wait to travel the world myself!I joined the industry as an apprentice in a high street Thomas Cook store in Sussex. Within two years I was working in their City of London flagship store where I won a Customer Service Award. After five years at Thomas Cook I took the leap into an independent leisure and business travel agency in Blackfriars - they were later acquired by an American travel management company. Here I ran the Luxury Leisure department, where I booked tailor-made leisure and business trips till I left five years later. During this time, I took the opportunity to work from the New York head office to expand on my global knowledge. Prior to starting my business I worked in Roadshow, Events & Marketing roles across different financial services sectors in the City of London. As well as time spent at a boutique hotel specialist and luxury villa agent.I can’t wait to help plan your next adventure, whether that’s a hopper flight to Dublin for business or a round the world cruise, you can rest assured you are 100% financially protected through Travel Counsellors Financial Trust and ATOL.I am contactable 24/7 so please do pick up the phone or drop me a message to chat over ideas and inspiration for your next trip. I have extensive destination knowledge Worldwide, although consider my specialist areas as North America, Italy, the Greek Islands and most of Europe - having travelled extensively here.“A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step.” - Lao TzuLook forward to chatting to you soon!

  • Elaine Simpson

    01422 897490 Hebden Bridge

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

    Ella Price

    01452 290 029 Hardwicke

    Hello my name’s Ella and I would like to extend you a very warm welcome to my Travel Counsellor webpage. My appetite for travel started at a very young age when we would take family camping trips to the south of France and then further afield as we got older. I can still remember the anticipation leading up to the trip and almost bursting with excitement by the time we arrived at the airport. I’m happy to report that, whether I’m booking a holiday for my own family or yours, I still feel this way every time I start planning a trip. If you are wondering why I am so well placed to be entrusted with finding your perfect holiday, then keep reading… Throughout my life I have been lucky enough to have travelled all over the world including Italy where I have spent time in Florence, Rome, Venice and Sardinia, and many regions in France including the Cote D’Azur, Le Mans, Disneyland Paris and several city breaks to Paris. I have visited Amsterdam and, on each occasion, enjoyed spending time in some of the best museums and galleries. I have also been fortunate to take many city breaks, Prague, New York, San Francisco, Las Vegas and Edinburgh are among my favourite. I have travelled extensively throughout Cambodia, Vietnam, Australia, New Zealand, Thailand, and the USA including Florida, California and Hawaii.Most of my travelling has been done making memories with my three children and husband. I therefore completely understand the complexities of travelling with children of all ages (my youngest is 5 and my eldest is 23)! I firmly believe that travelling provides learning and character shaping opportunities giving children an incredible insight to into other cultures and the opportunity for adults to experience the world through their children’s enthusiastic and innocent eyes.My favourite ever quote is by Mark Twain: Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So, throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbour. Catch the trade winds in your sails. EXPLORE. DREAM. DISCOVER.

Africa is my sweet spot: from the wide plains of Kenya’s Masai Mara to the winelands and coastlines of South Africa, I know how to unlock its magic for my clients. Whether it’s luxury safari lodges, hidden gems, or once in a lifetime wildlife encounters, this is where my expertise really shines.Travel isn’t just my job; it’s who I am.

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