  • Debbie Lees

    01457 778520 Glossop

    Hello and welcome to my web page, my name is Debbie and I am a Travel Counsellor based in Glossop.I understand that between working hard, having a busy home life and less and less free time it can be a hassle trying to arrange a well-deserved break by using a high street travel agency. Parking problems, a busy office with long queues and an impersonal service make what should be the start of a fantastic trip, a generally disappointing experience.Well, you don't have to be disappointed anymore! I delight in making holiday dreams come true and making the whole process from start to finish as relaxing and enjoyable as possible. I have over eight years’ experience in travel and customer services, having arranged holidays to many wonderful destinations around the world. As I love to travel myself and have experienced some of my own dream holidays, I look forward to arranging yours.Whether it's a city break, family holiday, cruise, honeymoon or business trip, whatever your requirements I will do my best to exceed your expectations and provide great customer service, while fulfilling your holiday requirements even before you leave home.We now have a unique system in place which no other travel agency/tour operator has access to, which enables us to book flights, accommodation and transfers separately. This, more than often beats standard tour operator packages.I look forward to hearing from you and being your personal Travel Counsellor so give me a call or send me an email, anytime.

    Sam Soulsby

    0115 832 0090 Nottingham

    Being a Travel Counsellor isn’t just my job, it is my absolute passion! I have always been intrigued by exploring new destinations and sampling different cultures and have been fortunate enough to experience some amazing trips. I therefore appreciate first-hand how important it is to make memories that last a lifetime.After obtaining my degree in International Tourism Management at Leeds, I took a gap year to embark on a world trip. Travelling through Asia, Australia, New Zealand, Fiji and America gave me a wealth of first-hand knowledge. Soon after my return, I joined an award-winning travel company in order to continue to indulge my love of travel. I was then fortunate enough to tick many more destinations off my bucket list, with highlights being visits to Iguassu Falls in Brazil, the Taj Mahal in India and viewing the Big 5 in South Africa. I spent 9 years working as a Tailor-made Travel Consultant and Supervisor. My expertise lies in First & Business travel although I’m more than happy to arrange any type of trip.What I love most about working for Travel Counsellors is that I am able to take time to truly get to know you on a personal level and understand exactly what your requirements are. I can then tailor-make a unique and bespoke itinerary especially for you. Booking a holiday is a very personal (and I believe exciting) experience so it’s imperative to get it right! As an independent agent, I have the freedom and flexibility to find you the perfect holiday match as well as offer you impartial advice along the way. I have no ties or loyalties with specific suppliers – my loyalties lie firmly with you.My Mission is to always exceed your expectations. I will offer you an unparalleled level of customer service which in turn will add enormous value to your whole holiday experience. Nothing is too much trouble.I work from my home office in Beeston so have the time and flexibility to devote to you, whatever time of the day you need it. As a busy working mum of 3 young children myself, I fully understand that standard office hours are not always convenient!So whether it’s a luxurious Safari in South Africa, a motorhome self-drive through New Zealand, a cruise around the Mediterranean, or even a simple (yet much needed) family beach holiday, please get in touch. I would love to help you plan your next adventure!

I have taken that passion for travel into my work as I love arranging holidays and booking trips for my clients. 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. As my client you can rest easy knowing that all your travel needs will be looked after to the highest possible degree throughout your booking and holiday experience.

I’ve driven through the dreamy Douro Valley in a camper van, trekked the mighty Annapurna, and road-tripped across the USA with my daughters by my side. Cruised Europes Rivers and Oceans, Hiked many paths and walked on many beaches across the globe.I've explored 39 countries (and counting!) and each adventure has been a chapter in the most beautiful story — one I want to help you begin or continue, too.These days, I split my time between the rolling hills of Cheltenham in the Cotswolds and the calming sea breeze of Hannafore in West Looe — two places that bring me so much joy.

It is so rewarding that you are already allowing me the pleasure to plan and book your future holidays and travel. That means so much.

    Hi, my name is Rachel, thank you for visiting my webpage - I look forward to helping you with your dream holiday. As an experienced travel consultant, I know how important it is to provide a personalised service and ensure that I go the extra mile to not only meet your needs but go beyond all expectations!I currently live in Dudley having moved to the area in December 2014. I am originally from Halesowen and previously lived in Netherton for 8 years. I am happily married and have three beautiful girls so family life is very active to say the least!Before becoming a Travel Counsellor in 2015, I was a travel agent for a main high street travel agency for over 14 years. Starting as a modern apprentice at 16 years old, (I always knew I wanted to work in travel) I then became a travel consultant after completing NVQ levels 2 & 3 in travel services before eventually completing my management training. In the time I have been in the travel industry, I have also completed different training courses to ensure my knowledge remains in first class and, unsurprisingly, I have travelled all over the world either on my own, with work or with my family.I regularly get asked: "What is your favourite destination?". There are so many and for so many different reasons. I love helping people plan their perfect wedding as I got married in Nissi Bay in Cyprus, so I do have a soft spot for this beautiful island and its luxurious hotels and amazing sights. My most adventurous trip though has to be when I planned an exciting and, at times, breath-taking world tour which covered parts of Asia, Australia, New Zealand and America. I have also been lucky enough to cruise down the Nile in Egypt, meet the big five on safari in Kenya, as well as take in popular destinations in Canada, the Caribbean, Dubai, Hong Kong, an throughout the Mediterranean. I have a great fondness for city breaks with my husband and girls having visited, amongst others, Dublin, Barcelona, Rome, Bruges, Lapland, Iceland as well as getting engaged under the Jet d’Eau in Geneva, one of my personal favourites Reykjavik! I regularly do exclusive group led tours with myself as your guide, So far I have taken groups to Iceland several times, Finland and Italy with many more to come.Being a Travel Counsellor allows me to make it more personal for my customers and being available at convenient times for them, offering them a service that not just anybody can.

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

    Hi everyone, welcome to my page.I’m thrilled to have recently become a Travel Counsellor, so that I can use my extensive travel experience and expertise to create unique and exciting adventures for you and your Tribe. I love nothing more than researching new destinations to explore, so please feel free to contact me with any travel requests – I’m always up for a challenge.I’ve been lucky enough to embark on a number of adventures. Backpacking from top to tip of South America, self-driving the stunning routes of Australia and New Zealand and winding my way through South East Asia’s bustling cities and backwaters. This passion for discovery hasn’t abated and as two tickets became five following the arrival of my three young adventurers, I’ve continued to try and see new places and take on new challenges. I firmly believe that travel is good for the soul. No matter where you go; from kayaking at dawn through the Amazon rainforest to relaxing with penguins on a South African beach; from exploring the backstreets of a Moroccan souk to chatting with pickers on the emerald green Sri Lankan tea estates, there are always new and exhilarating places to discover. The possibilities in travel are endless and I try to impart this sense of wanderlust on my children. No matter where we go, we always learn something new and return home with huge smiles on our faces and life-long memories to enjoy. Having spent the last 5 years flying solo at Tribe Family Adventures, I decided to join this supportive team of award winning independent agents so that I can offer my clients a broader variety of trips, alongside the best possible service and financial protection. I whole-heartedly believe that arranging a trip, whether it be a family adventure, honeymoon or a special milestone celebration, should be a fun and exciting experience. Discussing what makes you tick, enables me to create an itinerary exclusively for you, revolving around your interests and passions. By booking with me, through Travel Counsellors, every part of your trip is 100% financially protected either through the Travel Counsellors Financial Trust or ATOL. You’ll also benefit from human contact, 24/7 - I’m here for you whenever you need me – before, during and after your trip.If you would like help creating the perfect adventure for you and your Tribe – whoever that may be, please feel free to reach out.

    Welcome to my page. Let me tell you a little bit about me...As a Travel Counsellor I'm passionate about travel, and working hand in hand with my clients I can tailor the perfect holiday around you – whether it be a family holiday, a bucket list trip of a lifetime wedding abroad, city break, or even a UK staycation. I just love anything out of the ordinary, and will always take on a challenge. I can also book packages with the major tour operator brands such as Jet 2. I've worked in the travel industry for over 20 years ago, starting with Thomson Holidays (now Tui) and then the good old days of teletext holidays …how things have changed! I spent 15 years as an event and wedding planner working at some of the most prestigious hotels and venues, including Weston Park in Shropshire. I have arranged over 1000 weddings and lost count of the number of private parties, corporate events and activity days. I returned to travel in 2012 specialising in weddings abroad and luxury travel, and then started my travel business with Travel Counsellors at the end of 2019. There were so many reasons why I chose Travel Counsellors as my business partner. Spanning over 25 years they are a multi-award winning company with offices worldwide and support which is second to none. Their ‘with us it's personal‘ promise struck a chord with me too. My clients are my business and I treat every booking or enquiry as if it were my own. I look after your booking right to the very end. If you need to make a change to your itinerary, or add on excursions whilst you are on holiday, I can do that for you - a true travel concierge service. I relax knowing that you have arrived safely at your destination, and then again when you arrive back home. I work from home so there are no call centres to deal with. This also means that I’m available to discuss your plans at a time to suit you including evenings and weekends. I’m based in Staffordshire but have clients all around the UK. If you are close by we can meet for a chat over a coffee or glass of fizz…and for those further away then calls, emails and face to face via zoom etc is just fine.... whatever works best for you! I have access to thousands of trusted travel providers at my fingertips and as a company we continue to increase the direct contracts we have with hotels and specialist suppliers around the world. This means that I can personally tailor your plans knowing that I am working directly with the local suppliers, and ensuring that I'm securing the most competitive rates for you. Travel Counsellors offer the best financial protection in the industry and whilst you are on holiday we also have a 24 hours Duty Office to assist with difficulties out of hours, so you are always in contact with a person. For piece of mind your holiday is also fully protected financially through ATOL. So now you know who I am, I look forward to hearing from you and sending you off on your next adventure....wherever it may be

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

With me, you’ll always be in safe hands.I’m what’s known in Thailand as a Luk Krueng (half Thai). Growing up in a working-class town in England, in the mid-80s, my background was often seen as a little unusual. But for me, hopping on a plane to my mother’s wooden stilt family home deep in the Thai jungle was simply part of childhood. Those early adventures gave me a passion for travel that’s been with me ever since.That passion goes beyond my own suitcase - I love creating experiences for my clients that are so vivid, I can picture myself there with you. (Don’t worry, I promise I won’t sneak onto your flight or turn up at your hotel pool with a lilo in hand!) But I will be here if you need anything while you’re away, and I’ll be excited to hear all about your highlights when you return.Since my first trip to Thailand in 1987 (which even made the local headlines!), I’ve been back more than 30 times, and even spent four years teaching English there. My travels have taken me across Asia and beyond - from venturing up Mount Fuji in Japan, to exploring the awe-inspiring temples of Angkor in Cambodia, to discovering the beautiful islands of the Philippines.Other unforgettable memories include sleeping under the stars in the Dubai desert, cruising through Alaska (with a close-up grizzly bear encounter!), road-tripping across the Canadian Rockies, snowmobiling along the glaciers in Iceland, and gazing at the Milky Way under the South African sky during our safari game drive. Each one has given me memories I’ll never forget.Along the way, I’ve gained first-hand experience with airlines like Qatar Airways, Singapore Airlines, and Emirates - across both Economy and Business Class. I’ve also stayed in some incredible hotels, including the world-famous 7-star Emirates Palace in Abu Dhabi.And because I know life doesn’t just happen between 9–5, I’m available evenings and weekends too. Whether by email or phone, we can chat however feels most comfortable for you.Looking forward to having a good natter and helping you plan your next adventure!
