    01536 738730 Desborough

    Hi. Thanks for visiting my web page.Whether you are looking to take a helicopter trip over (or under!) the Golden Gate Bridge, soak up some winter sun in the Canaries, get up close and personal with the elephants in Sri Lanka or book tickets for the latest West End Show, thanks to my 20+ years in the travel industry I am very privileged to have first-hand experience of a huge range of destinations and holiday types. I have also met some incredible people during my time in travel and have friends and colleagues around the globe so if you are looking to go somewhere I haven’t been to personally, I have a world of local knowledge to call upon.I am often asked where my favourite place is in the world. It would be way too hard to narrow that down to just one so I have lots! My favourite City and shopping venue has to be New York, for total relaxation I’d return to the Maldives any day and my favourite place for a family holiday is the beautiful and unspoilt Puerto Pollensa in Majorca. Not forgetting Lapland and Disney of course for the pure magic! I am also a big fan of UK Holidays and particularly enjoy spending time on the South and East Coasts as well as the Lake District.I have a real passion for travel and being a Travel Counsellor allows me to spend time making sure that I find you the right holiday, or business trip, to suit all of your needs. I am completely independent so can book from a huge range of different tour operators and airlines as well as tailor making itineraries that are completely personal to you. I also pride myself on offering independent and honest advice. I offer a truly personalised service that I am confident you won’t get anywhere else. You will only ever deal with me - right through from your initial enquiry up until you return home and beyond. I am also available at a time and place to suit you.Think of me as your ‘Personal Travel Concierge’. I can take care of every single element of your trip including airport parking, visas and in-resort excursions to name but a few. Plus every penny that you spend with me is 100% financially protected so what are you waiting for?! Get in touch with the requirements for your next trip, however big or small, and I will do the rest!Hope to hear from you soon.Claire x

  • 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. You’ll always talk to the same person, and I’m available at a time to suit you, even if that’s a late evening or weekend. So whether it’s that dream holiday you have been promising yourself, a weekend break, honeymoon or a business trip - give me a call or send me an email.I look forward to hearing from you soon.Kind regardsAnnette

Before having children I travelled extensively, having visited more than 20 countries across 5 continents, so I’m no stranger to overseas adventures. After becoming a parent, my passion for travel didn’t change but my travel needs did - it’s amazing how something seemingly trivial can make or break a holiday with young children (I had 3 under 2 years old at one point!) so I truly appreciate that everyone’s needs are unique. You can rest assured I will research every tiny detail to make your trip perfect for you and ensure you are well looked after, not only before, but during and after your holiday too, and best of all - this comes at no extra cost to you.So whether you are looking for a family holiday, cruise, adventure holiday, overseas wedding, honeymoon or any other trip, I would love to talk to you either in person over a coffee, over the phone, via email or even Skype about what you are looking for.

    Hi there and thank you for taking the time to check out my webpage. Let me introduce myself, my name is Lara Jackson and I am excited to say I’m a Travel Counsellor based in Cheshire. A bit about me: I am married with 1 teenage son and as you can imagine their passion is football but mine is very much travel so the more football they do the more travelling I do (it’s only fair) meaning I have been lucky enough to visit some amazing destinations over the years.Travel has not only been my passion but fortunately it has been my profession and since leaving education 20 years ago (where does the time go?) I have worked for some of the leading travel organisations in the UK dealing with a wide variety of different travel requirements from, cheap and cheerful breaks to tailor-made holidays of a lifetime as well as more recently diversifying into business travel helping companies making the most of what they spend on travel. I have always wanted to work for myself but at the same time I wanted to ensure I had the infrastructure to make sure I could offer the best deals whilst delivering exceptional service to my clients and being part Travel Counsellors has given me the platform to do that. I always go above and beyond and particularly in these uncertain times, like me, you’ll always want to make sure you can pay for your holiday with the confidence that should anything go wrong then you are 100% financially protected.So why book with me? I’m well-travelled, what I mean by that is I have travelled to over 51 different countries and 5 continents, including; Europe, America, Hawaii, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Cook Island, Asia, Kenya, India, United Arab Emirates, Indian Ocean, Caribbean, Costa Rica and Egypt.

    Just imagine the horror on my Mum’s face when, at the innocent age of 7, I announced to all and sundry that “I want to be a new age traveller”. Shortly followed by the proclamation that actually, “I don’t care as long as I can just travel anywhere I like!”Who would have known that over 30 years later I would have travelled around the world twice, visited over 80 countries, spent three summer’s teaching sailing and water sports abroad and forged a career in marketing and accountancy. After volunteering in a South African township for six months, I made the biggest decision of my life so far - to transform my life of travel into a productive future of inspiring, planning and creating holidays and breaks away for other people.Having lived in the Stratford upon Avon area and Evesham for most of my life, I have incredible support from friends, family and clients throughout Warwickshire and the neighbouring counties as well as worldwide. Since July 2020, I now have idyllic Keswick to call home and have created a beautiful network of friends up here who share similar passions and interests and definitely keep me fit and active!I love being ‘the one to call’ for advice, top tips and inspiration for all travel requirements – no matter what type of trip it is!

    If you have trouble finding the perfect holiday or simply don’t have the time or energy I can help. My passion for travel began after buying my first Inter-railing ticket around Europe. During those four weeks I learnt so much about different cultures, cities and food. I was hooked! From that moment on I decided to work in travel and help others fulfill their travelling dreams.After graduation I worked for one of the leading travel agents in Kensington, London where I specialised in long haul, tailor-made holidays. My fondest memories were creating bespoke holidays for different people, with different budgets and different dreams; be it long haul, short haul, budget, luxury, backpack or family break.I have been fortunate enough to experience many different types of holidays, having backpacked around the world after University, had luxury trips whilst working in the travel industry, and more recently (now I understand what it’s like travelling with children) family holidays closer to home in Europe. Some of my highlights include white water rafting down the Zambezi river in Africa, paragliding and bungee jumping in New Zealand, walking the Inca Trail in Peru, a desert safari in Dubai and relaxing on the fantastic beaches in Portugal.I am delighted to have joined Travel Counsellors. In our increasingly busy lives I feel holidays are so important but we rarely have enough time to find the perfect one. I can help you. I am committed to using my experience and contacts to go the extra mile and bring together an experience that you won’t forget.I look forward to speaking to you soon.Thanks

As your Personal Travel Counsellor, I confidently guarantee both.Born and raised in Cornwall, I grew up immersed in tourism and was fortunate to enjoy many holidays as a child. These experiences sparked my passion for travel and my drive to explore new places and cultures. After obtaining a Distinction in Travel and Tourism, I secured a Holiday Representative position with TUI in Lanzarote. After a season, I returned to Cornwall and worked in Events Operation and Wedding Coordination at a local hotel before heading back overseas as a Concierge for Sovereign Holidays.

Through my experience, I am aware that obstacles can arise during travel. I have personally dealt with a spectrum of scenarios, from a simple flight delay to COVID-19 on a cruise ship. You can trust my calm and collected manner and have confidence that I will be there for you every step of the way.In recent years, I have travelled extensively with my business throughout Bali, the Nusa Islands, Gili Island, Singapore, Thailand, and Malaysia. This first-hand experience allows me to enhance my clients' travel experiences while fuelling my own passion for exploration and adding that personal touch to every client interaction.Some of my all-time favourite destinations are New York, Curacao, Singapore, Nusa Lembongan, and some of the lesser-known islands in the south of Thailand.‘A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step’ - Lao TzuThat step can be as simple as contacting me using one of the methods below or following my adventures on social media to see if any destinations catch your eye.I hope to hear from you and assist with booking your holiday very soon!Best wishes,Carol

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 take care of all medical assistance needs and requests; I hand deliver tickets to your door and a few little extras too.

    My name is Joanna and I am based in the leafy Chilterns in Amersham, Buckinghamshire.I have 30 years of experience in travel and am fortunate to have explored many destinations around the world. I craft unique, personalised trips for clients using my extensive travel knowledge and expertise. Travel enriches our lives in countless ways, whether it be through the discovery of new landscapes and cultures, creating cherished family memories or simply broadening our own horizons. I will make your holiday as carefree as possible, providing support and advice before you travel and throughout your trip.My father was a navigator in the RAF, flew private planes and worked for the Civil Aviation Authority. I flew on private planes before commercial ones and ‘assisted’ the inspection of runways in the Scottish Highlands! I embarked on my first own travel adventure at 18, on a six-month backpacking trip to India, Southeast Asia and Australia. On 30-hour bus rides in India, learning to dive the Great Barrier Reef and trekking in Thailand, I made lifelong friends and wonderful memories.I knew that I would never work in any other industry other than travel. After university, where I spent a term at college in the U.S. and traversed the country by Amtrak, I joined STA Travel working my way from long-haul telesales to a regional sales manager. I led a group trip to China, holidayed in Mexico, Belize and Guatemala, continued my diving adventures in the Caribbean, Fiji and the Cook Islands and fell in love with Sri Lanka. Following maternity leave, I worked for a luxury travel PR & marketing agency, representing prestigious small ships, private islands, five-star resorts and boutique city hotels. I also arranged trips for top travel journalists and influencers. I am married with three children (and a lively Labrador) and love nothing more than planning family holidays, whether it is skiing and summer trips to the Alps, holidays under canvas, beach stays in the Caribbean (St Lucia is a family favourite), a Disneyland Florida family celebration, a multigenerational city break to Berlin and an epic family Odyssey across Italy and France by plane, train and automobile! This year I travelled with my youngest son (aged 12) to Sabi Sabi Private Game Reserve, South Africa. It was a joy to see him so engaged and inspired by the incredible conservation and community projects. He learnt more about the exceptional wildlife from his time spent with the outstanding rangers and trackers than from any classroom lesson.I would be delighted to help plan your next travel adventure, whether you are going solo, in a couple or travelling with friends and family. From a ski trip, relaxing beach or cultural/foodie city break, long-haul adventure, spa and wellness holiday to dream honeymoon or cruise, I suggest options to suit your budget that are crafted with care and attention to detail.

I got the travel bug in my late teens and took off for a year motoring across Australia in a beaten-up old VW campervan. I then spent six months backpacking around Thailand, Malaysia, Borneo, Laos, Bali, Singapore and Sri Lanka which was an incredible experience. I am also extremely proud to say that I worked in Disneyworld, and while I was there I was lucky enough to take trips to California, New York and New Orleans and also down to the Caribbean Islands, Bahamas, and Mexico - and of course I know Florida like the back of my hand!People always ask which country is the best that I've visited, and I always give them my 'Top 4' as they all have different reasons for being so awesome and they all have a very special place in my heart... New Zealand for the sheer breath-taking beauty of South Island. Grenada for that little sparkling gem of an island in an already stupidly beautiful Caribbean. Iceland for its surreal landscape, pure air and magical twilight that really does make you question your very existence, and Kenya for a night I will never forget at Treetops Lodge where I was incredibly lucky to stay in the same room where Queen Elizabeth stayed when she visited as a Princess and left as Queen.I look forward to hearing from you and discussing your next travel plans, I am always happy to chat through thoughts and ideas about any country so please do not hesitate to give me a call or drop me an email.With very best wishes & happy travels,

    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.

I chose to join Travel Counsellors 20 years ago because they care about their customers, working with state of the art technology and offer fantastic head office support to assist me in my role. I have a huge client base now and most of my customers have become personal friends. They help me by passing my details to their colleagues, friends and family which now means I am busy most of the year and as my children are now 28 and 27 years old and need less attention I have more time though our Grandchildren aged 11 , 4 and 1 do keep me busy. I do love the fact that I can work much more flexible hours to suit my customers' needs as they can contact me at any time of the day or night whichever suits them best whether that be a weekend or an evening.I aim to give the highest possible customer service and to ensure that every travel arrangement meets and better still, exceeds your expectations. Allow me to turn your dream holiday into reality. I really will look after you. The industry changes constantly but a key aspect now in travel is that you are looked after if you need us whilst overseas ....I feel this has brought many clients back to me over the years as there is nothing worse than something going wrong whilst you are away and you have no one to discuss it with, all my clients have my personal mobile number as I do theirs to keep an eye on them whilst they are away.I very much look forward to speaking to you , please feel free to give me a call.
