    0161 297 0100 Manchester

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

    07871 787 484 London

    With over 21 years experience of working front line sales for a leading travel company, I've decided to take my career to the next level. Working with global award winning Travel Counsellors has given me the opportunity to have my own franchise, setting my own high standards of both service and product, using my vast experience to deliver a high standard of industry expertise.For you, this will begin at enquiry stage, leading you through some of the options available, you can then settle on which of the tailor-made travel itineraries best suit you. I'll provide personal recommendations where required, all to deliver a service that exceeds your expectations, and travel experience that will leave you with un-forgettable memories.During my 19 years I've acquired some stand out travel experiences, most recently, taking in the stunning natural beauty of the Maldives with my wife, where I was able to fulfil a life long ambition of swimming with manta-ray. Spotting the Big five at South Africa's Shamwari Game reserve along with skydiving over Table Mountain in Cape town, marvelling at the patient craftmanship of the Taj Mahal followed by exploring the backwater's of Southern India to name a few highlights of my travels. Not wanting to keep the world to myself, I've also taken my wife and four children, aged between 8 and 18 to Barbados, Dubai, Thailand and across much of Europe, so I can certainly pre-empt the considerations you'd need to make when travelling with a family. A particularly memorable occasion has to be my shopping and show trip to New York with my two teenage girls, never a dull moment! To list all the places, and diverse cultural experiences I've had will take up half this page, but from the shows and nightlife of Vegas and New York to the Thai markets and Indian temples, I can bring much experience to your tentative enquiry. Over the last 5 years, I've also focused on corporate travel. The challenge of catering for the fast paced high demand is where I come into my own. Finding route and ticket solutions that you'd maybe not see possible with your own planning, I take the strain out of booking business travel, a little more of this is highlighted on my Business travel page via the link.

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.

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 thatĀ areĀ 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 forĀ you throughout the whole process, brings you a service that is second to none.Finally, a Travel Counsellor booking is 100% financially protected.

    Sharon Messett

    01580 848640 Tenterden

    My name is Sharon Messett and I have more than 30 years’ experience in the travel industry, including 20 working as a Travel Counsellor. It’s a role I love, as it gives me the chance to embrace my passion for travel on a daily basis, exploring new destinations through my research as well as returning to old favourites. I find it enormously rewarding helping my clients find the best experience possible for the type of holiday they want, whether it be a ā€˜flop and drop’ family beachside holiday, or a luxury retreat.I have been fortunate to have travelled extensively myself; including trips to Australia, New Zealand, the South Pacific, Southeast Asia, Africa, North America and the Caribbean, and have gained intimate knowledge of these long-haul destinations. Now that I have children, I am enjoying discovering more short-haul destinations around Europe including some amazing road trips with them to central Europe. For me, one of the best things about travel is the freedom that it gives you – travel brings anticipation, education, excitement and the joy of adventure into your life!TRAVEL WITH A CONSCIENCE My travels have also shown me the positive and negative effects of tourism; at its best when it is supporting communities who rely on visitors for their income, and at its worst where over-tourism has had a detrimental effect on locals and the environment. Over time, this has given me the opportunity to reflect, and I have realised that I have a growing interest in sustainable tourism. I would like to help you to find holidays and destinations which are amazing experiences and have a minimal impact or preferably offer positive environmental footprints.Travelling sustainably and responsibly is becoming increasingly more and more important for many travellers, and as your Travel Advisor I can carefully consider how to assist in building your perfect itinerary to make your trip kind to both people and our planet. I believe that sustainable travel also helps us to have more authentic travel experiences – visiting unspoilt places and immersing in the local culture is one of my passions, and one that I share with many of my clients.BOOK WITH ME AND I’LL LOOK AFTER YOU When it comes to travel, it’s important to know that you are booking with someone dependable, who you can trust, and who understands your precise needs every step of the way. The close relationships I build with each and every one of my clients, and the levels of care I can provide as your Travel Advisor, means that no-one can look after you better than I will. It makes me extremely proud to know that so many of my customers have recommended my services to their family, friends and associates. Being an independent Travel Advisor means I am not restricted to using only major holiday companies and allows me to create the perfect trip for you. Booking through Travel Counsellors also gives you security, as your money is completely financially protected against supplier failure by ATOL and the unique Travel Counsellors Trust.LOOKING AHEAD – PLAN YOUR GETAWAY I am sure that many of you, like me, want to plan a holiday for 2025/2026 - to have something to look forward to. Let me provide you with first-hand expertise and information to inspire your next adventure and let's see where the next year takes you.If you are unable to travel yet, then the next best thing to travelling is talking about it and planning it. Therefore, if you can't yet go where you want to just yet, let's discuss your plans instead. Please give me a call or send me an email and we can have a chat!

    Hi, I'm Soozie, Welcome to my webpage. I am your personal Travel Counsellor based in Bookham in Surrey where I live with my husband, son and 2 dogs Max & Dexter.I have been travelling from a young age on family holidays, then got the bug as a teenager to travel further afield to more exotic destinations such as the Far East and the Indian Ocean. I also said "I DO" in Las Vegas as we wanted to do something different, and visited the Gran Canyon which is another great experience! Favourite Destination?This one is tough as each holidays are so different but I loved the Maldives for the white sands and for the Marine life watching the Manta Rays gliding around in the water gracefully in the evening was so beautiful, and seeing baby sharks while stood at the water edge! The fish were amazing while snorkelling and beaches are stunning of course! The adventure does start on the seaplane landing on the pristine white beaches which takes your breath away..But also I think Mauritius is just as good and also one of my top sellers .. here you have the advantage of being able to hire a car and explore the island and be totally safe! Here I also sell lots of weddings. I also love the far east for culture and diversity and Thai food! So where will your favourite destination be..? I have been working in travel for over 20 years and it's always been my passion!

This is the reason I chose this company so that I have lot's of suppliers at my fingertips, I offer bespoke tailormade itineraries to a day trip to Lapland to more adventurous trips trekking in the far east or even cruising in Alaska, I also do a sporting trips too from Cycling holidays to Golf breaks & sports to the usual ski holidays.... There isn't really any holiday I can't do!Why Book Through Me ..?Not only to support a local small business but so that you don't spend tireless hours looking through the internet, most large touring holidays can't be found on the internet that I put together. Booking with me means your money is 100% financially secure, and also I am always available at the end of the phone, Wassap or email to answer questions etc, I will personally deliver tickets to you when I can if close to me, as I believe in personal service, I can arrange appointments out of normal work hours if easier for my customers too, making it more convenient for you. so rest assured your holiday is protected and your in safe hands!

    01636 870 010 Nottingham

    I am Teresa Jones. I’m married with two grown up stepdaughters and 16 year old daughter. After living in London for twenty years I returned to my home county of Nottinghamshire where we now live a very different life in a small friendly village outside the pretty and historic minster town of Southwell.Before I became a Travel Counsellor, I spent twenty-five years in The City working in a demanding role for a global financial services company. Anyone who knows me will tell you that I have an absolute passion for travel. If I’m not actually travelling, I’m talking or reading about it, planning my next trip or advising friends and family with their own adventures. Being a Travel Counsellor and helping others realise their own travel dreams is my ultimate job.From my first ever overseas holiday to Malta aged ten and experiencing the azure waters of The Blue Grotto, eating fresh fish by the harbour and walking the hot and dusty streets of Valletta, I knew I was addicted to travel.Since then, through both work and personal life, I have been fortunate to visit over forty countries. From road trips through California drinking in the sights and the Pinot Noir, to snorkelling in the Maldives with the clownfish, to skiing corduroy slopes under vivid blue Alpen skies, to sunrise safaris spying lions in South Africa or gazing at Sydney Opera House; it would be impossible to choose a favourite. However, Bali and its charming people and Portugal and its vast expanses of golden beaches are both very dear to my heart.My whole career has been spent striving to exceed the expectations of highly demanding corporate clients. I’ve turned these skills to arranging bespoke travel experiences that perfectly match my clients’ requirements. I’m not tied to office hours so happy to speak at a time that suits you.So, whether it be long or short-haul luxury beach breaks; family getaways; exotic adventures; road trips; winter sports; honeymoons; cruises; exquisite city breaks or staycations; I’d be delighted to share my experiences with you to help you plan your next expedition be it near or far.So, what are you waiting for? Let’s go!ā€œTravelling – it leaves you speechless, then it turns you into a storyteller.ā€ Ibn Battuta

For the last 20 of those, I’ve been proud to call Travel Counsellors my home. Before that, I worked for both big-name high street agencies and some lovely little independents too — soaking up all the worldly knowledge I could like a travel-hungry sponge to give you independent travel advice.Let’s face it — the travel world has changed a lot.

You get local charm, curated details, and absolutely no compromise.Every trip I plan is researched like I’m going myself — reviews are checked, deals are compared, and recommendations are personalised. Whether you need a Travel Agent or a Tour Operator (or a delightful mix of both), I’ve got the flexibility to build what’s right for you.🌟 My Promise: Honest Advice & Proper ServiceI’m passionate (annoyingly so) about travel.

    I am a Travel Counsellor living in Chalfont St Giles. Chalfont St Giles is a great place to live; a great community, in a lovely area including fantastic Bluebell woods, and great schools. My husband and I have lived in the area for over 20 years and our sons grew up and went to school locally, even though they are grown up one or other or both of them periodically live with us. As someone who loves travel, being close but not too close to all forms of transport, airports, ports, channel tunnel and Central London for the Eurostar and evenings out is an added benefit. I love organising travel and holidays for others. Whether it is a once in a lifetime holiday to New Zealand, a luxury cultural city break for two in Nice, or a big family ski trip (dog and grandparents included) I can organize it, leaving you free to look forward and enjoy your trip. Cruising is one of my specialities and with the number of different cruise lines, destinations and inclusive options available I will be happy to discuss which would be most suitable for your needs. Due to my husband being a very keen sailor, I have organised sailing trips for us to Greece, Turkey, The British Virgin Islands and my favourite, Tobago Cays in St Vincent and the Grenadines in the Caribbean, ( where swimming with turtles and rays was magical). This has given me first hand experience with the logistics of wind powered travel as well as an intimate knowledge of the aforementioned areas.For me being a Travel Counsellor means that I am there for you, and not just during office hours. I will be able to offer you impartial advice and help you find the best travel option to suit your needs as well as exceptional customer service tailored to your requirements. Whether it is a last minute quick getaway somewhere sunny, or a precisely planned trip to Antarctica I will be delighted to find the travel solution to meet your needs. Please contact me to discuss any of your forthcoming travel arrangements.I look forward to hearing from you soon.Best wishes. Annemarie

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.

I joined Travel Counsellors in 2004 and I can honestly say I have never looked back. I have just celebrated my 20th anniversary with Travel Counsellors. I have been on many holidays and educational trips which include most of the Greek Islands, Portugal, Cyprus, Spain, Canary Islands, Turkey, Paris, Barcelona, Venice, Florence, Prague, Dublin, Jersey, Miami, California, New York, Antigua, Dubai, Doha, Bermuda, Antigua, Jamaica and I have been on many cruises and sailing holidays. I have just returned from a fantastic trip to Thailand, wow! What an amazing holiday. The food and hospitality were wonderful but the heart of the experience was the Thai people. I also visited an elephant sanctuary which was a beautiful and humbling encounter.My favourite place I have visited with my family so far is Santorini. It has to be the prettiest place I have ever seen and serves the most delicious cuisine. I would love to visit South Africa which I plan to do sometime in the near future. I love being a Travel Counsellor because I can spend time finding my customers the right holiday, without any targets to meet or any directional selling.

    Are you ready for a journey that combines travel, culture, and great food? If you love discovering new places and flavours, I’d love to help you plan an experience that brings them all together. I’m an experienced traveller and hospitality event planner with a passion for exploring the world and enjoying its many cuisines. My goal is to help you discover destinations in a way that feels personal, authentic, and memorable. After spending over ten years in France, I’ve had the chance to explore much of Europe, North and South America, Asia, and the Middle East. These travels have given me a deep appreciation for the connection between people, culture, and food. I create travel experiences that let you do more than just see a place—you get to truly experience it. That might mean visiting a local market, taking part in a hands-on workshop, or enjoying a private meal that showcases regional flavours. Each itinerary is designed to reflect the spirit of the destination and to make every moment special. My background in hospitality, along with my time living in the south of France and the French Alps, has shaped my approach to travel planning. I bring together culture, history, cuisine, and adventure—whether that means finding a hidden local gem, enjoying the slopes, or discovering a quiet spot away from the crowds. If you’re ready to start your next adventure—one that’s full of discovery, great food, and lasting memories—I’d love to be your guide. Let’s plan a journey that blends exploration, relaxation, and flavour in perfect balance. Get in touch, and let’s start planning your next great experience.
