    There are not many places I’ve not been to or booked someone to. Let me use my knowledge and try my personal service approach to your next holiday.I began my career in travel in the mid-1990s. The choice and types of holidays have changed dramatically since I started and so has how you book them, with Travel Counsellors leading the way.The popularity and selection of cruises is now immense – and so are some of the ships – but in terms of value for money, it’s an amazing holiday. I know there’s a cruise for everyone because I been on so many myself! From an uninterrupted trans-Atlantic voyage to New York, to a trip round-Britain calling at unique ports – I’ve done it! Cruises for the whole family are amazing also – there’s so much to do on the latest ships, even my hardest customers to please, my two children, agree.Gone are the days of choosing between a one or two week holiday. With Travel Counsellors I have access of hundreds of airlines and an endless list of hotels so you can have a tailor-made holiday. Whether it’s a customised package flying from a local airport, like Bournemouth or Southampton for me, to a multi-destination itinerary including flights with leading scheduled airlines, using the latest technology I have as a Travel Counsellor, I can do it.Through the hundreds of suppliers I can select from and the specialist tour operators I deal with, no travel idea is a challenge. My favourite trips are simple for me as a Travel Counsellor – worldwide itineraries taking in the best of Australasia, mid-haul city breaks like Dubai, once-in-a-lifetime visits to Father Christmas in Lapland and even luxury breaks in the UK.As a Travel Counsellor I have the time to get to know you, to understand what type of holiday you’re looking for (including the experiences and memories you’d like to make), and I can provide an extremely high level of service. Travel Counsellors came out on top, ranked number one travel firm, when Money Saving Expert surveyed travellers about how their travel agent treated them. Add to this that everything you book through me is 100% financially protected also.I live on the south coast between the sea and the Purbeck hills, in a Saxon town called Wareham in Dorset. If you live in the surrounding areas I am more than happy to visit you, meet up or even come and visit me.I look forward to helping you with any travel plans you have.

    0161 297 0100 Manchester

    Hi…      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…    a great passion of mine from when I was a young boy. I have cruised and travelled extensively as you’ll see. I am married to Pam and we have two gorgeous daughters, both married to wonderful boys… four adorable grandsons, two courtesy of 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, APT‘s AmaBella Danube…   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 “tick box” 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 love 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 “say what I do, do what I say” approach. You’ll be in good hands with your cruise and travel arrangements being handled by me personally.

    My name is Natasha. I worked for Thomas Cook for 6 years before becoming a Travel Counsellor, giving me over 11 years experience. I have also been really lucky to have done a lot of travelling with my husband Martin too! There are now 3 of us in the Butler household. Myself and Martin, and Charlie we also have 26 cows that really do like to have their ears scratched. Martin and I have travelled most of Europe, Egypt, Tunisia, Turkey and then some longer ones like the USA, Caribbean, and Canada. So far I have two favourite destinations – they are a bit chalk and cheese though – Mexico and Florida! They both amazed me for very different reasons but the service, culture and standards were phenomenal! Mexico offers the heritage, people and beaches that seem to come from dreams. Florida was like a return to childhood, meeting the Disney characters, watching the amazing fireworks displays and chilling out in what can only be described as brilliant facilities at Disney’s onsite hotels. I don’t tend to go to the same place twice, but I would go to both of these several times! Though I still have many more places to visit, I am determined to travel the world. I am a firm believer that a holiday can solve anything, especially when you find the perfect one! I will make sure that every holiday you book will be done with the highest level of personalised service, tailored to you and your requirements. I will also be able to do this at a time that suits you over email, phone or even catching up for a coffee.

The joke amongst my friends and family is that ‘I am always on holiday’ (if only that was true). I’m lucky to have travelled widely over the years and have been to over 50 countries. Favourite destinations include Brazil, Mexico, Japan, Australia, Italy and Spain with Cambodia having a special place in my heart as I lived there for several months whilst volunteering.Before becoming a Travel Counsellor I worked in marketing for 25 years, for big names such as Virgin and most recently for Marketing Manchester, the tourist board promoting the city region to the world. Now it’s the other way around and I hope I can promote the world to the lovely people of Manchester (btw you don't need to live in Manchester for me to be able to help you with your travel plans). I would love to hear about your holiday ideas and what’s important and of interest to you to then enable me to create a bespoke travel itinerary. This might be a beach holiday in Europe, a short city break, a long-haul once in a lifetime trip, off the beaten track somewhere, an all-inclusive cruise and not forgetting breaks in the UK too. Flexibility and availability are important – I am available on the phone, email or to meet in person and this can be outside of ‘normal business hours’ if that suits you better. You will get great personal service from me along with the 100% financial protection of Travel Counsellors. Please get in touch to see how I can help you to plan and book your next trip.

    I have a 28 year career in the travel industry and a true passion to make sure my clients always have a wonderful and memorable experience. We are all different and how we enjoy our holidays is very different too. Some people love adventure and prefer to get off the beaten track but others like to know they can experience new countries and cultures safe in the knowledge everything is perfectly organised before they leave. Some holidays are for relaxing on a beach and others are adrenalin filled, of course many are a mix of the two and more. I tailor all holidays to the client to ensure it is right for them. Most holidays are good, its time away from the stresses of daily life and spending quality time with those we care about, but I think it is about making sure that holiday time is the very best it can be. Advancement in technology has encouraged us all to spend hours online looking at websites hoping to see the perfect option, but can this ever really compare to working with an expert who does this every day? I am lucky enough to have visited 72 countries and work in partnership with 1000’s of colleagues who have travelled extensively too so I offer real advice and experience? There is no call centre here, you only ever need to contact me and I am available pretty much 24/7. Travel Counsellors also gives your investment the highest level of financial protection in the industry so your money is always safe.If it is time for your next trip please contact me and let’s make it happen…….

    My journey in travel began in 1988 as a YTS trainee at just 17. In September 2000, I became a Travel Counsellor, and I’ve been dedicated to this amazing role for 24 years – which coincides with Travel Counsellors' 30th anniversary. Time flies when you’re doing what you love! Community is at the heart of what I do, which is why I joined the Rotary Club of Alfreton in 2014. I was honoured to become President in 2018 and have proudly taken on the role two more times since. Family is a big part of my life, too. My son Connor, now 23, has grown up alongside my career. In 2022, he moved from volunteering to working, so now funds his own trips – a real win-win! We’ve been fortunate to explore incredible destinations together. From Alaska to the Caribbean, we’ve seen some jaw-dropping places. Greece stole our hearts in 2023, with visits to Chania, Crete, and Athens – it’s a new favourite! In 2024, we cruised the breathtaking Norwegian Fjords on P&O’s Iona in May and sailed on Disney Cruise Line’s Dream in September. We also kept up our tradition of UK breaks, with zoo visits, our annual Blackpool getaway, and a first-time trip to the Lake District – it didn’t disappoint! On top of this, I attended the CLIA River Cruise Conference in Amsterdam and the Ocean Cruise Conference in Southampton. These events keep me up to date with the latest in the cruise world, ensuring I offer the best advice to my customers. Planning holidays for my customers is my passion. I take great care with every booking, ensuring it exceeds expectations. As a Travel Counsellor, I get to know my customers personally, tailoring each trip to your preferences. From restaurant recommendations to financial protection, I’ve got you covered for complete peace of mind. My support doesn’t stop when your trip begins – I’m here every step of the way. With flexible hours, I’m just a message away, 7 days a week. With my recent travel experiences, up-to-date industry knowledge, and access to thousands of suppliers, hotels, flights, tours, and more, I’m ready to create a personalised, extraordinary holiday just for you. No enquiry is too big or small, so don’t hesitate to get in touch. I’d love to help plan your next adventure!

    Hi I'm Pam and welcome to my page.I live in the Rochdale area and have worked within the travel industry for more than 31 years so it’s relatively safe to say I know a thing or two about travel.My client base is extensive and rapidly growing for both business and leisure. My business is based on referrals, so I like to think my growth is down to the high level of service I provide, which most important of all provides you, the customer, with total peace of mind.As you are probably aware the industry is rapidly changing. In order to meet the challenge of change we at Travel Counsellors are equipped with the most up to date technology that permits me to give you, the customer, precise advice that is geared totally around your own individual requirements.Why Travel Counsellors and not a high street agency you may ask yourself? On the high street the conventional method of selling is directional. Therefore you’ll be recommended specific companies which benefit that particular high street agency. In contrast, I’m completely independent so I have no ties to any particular tour operator or supplier. I’ll recommend the holiday that is right for you and is geared to your individual requirements. In addition, I offer a 24 hour service. I’m always available, and it will always be me that you deal with as there are no call centres. I’ll be there on the end of the phone should you require anything prior, during, or after your trip.So if you want a holiday that is as individual as you, where your business is valued and not just a sales statistic, be it a cruise, UK break, ferry or flight, why not give me a try?I look forward to hearing from you.All the BestPam

  • Ian Woolgar

    0207 112 7002 Hampstead, London

    Hei, Thanks for taking time out to let me outline my and my partner's experience.I learnt my trade working for and with, amongst others, Colin Murison Small who more or less invented the alpine ski 'chalet girl’, Colin Trigger a one time Chairman of ABTA & ATOL, and the legendary Vladimir Raitz who held the country’s first ATOL when in 1949 he sent 21 people to Corsica for £35 a head!! I’ve watched the sun rise over Table Mountain, sink beneath the horizon in the Aegean and stay above it all night in the Svalbard Archipelago. I’ve slept in a mountain hut on the edge of an Icelandic glacier and a staffed villa on a coconut plantation in the Dominican Republic. I've organised family holidays, culture tours, a product launch on an Icelandic glacier, weddings in the sun and snow, sales incentive meetings and more. My partner Anna ( Hyndman Lahna) spent 3 decades working in tour operation, retail travel, repatriation and for Singapore Airlines & South African Airways. What she doesn’t know about airline ticketing isn’t worth knowing. She has equally eclectic experiences to mine having white water rafted on the Zambezi River, trekked by camel across the Gobi desert, flip flopped over the Piranha River Bridge into Paraguay, and trained elves for Father Christmas in Lapland.Together we fuse our collective experience (and experiences) with Travel Counsellors' state of the art technology to plan, polish and perfect your holiday the way you want it to be. To see to it that everything works flawlessly for you from beginning to end. 'With us its Personal' is more than the company strap line its how we work so you get the travel arrangements you want. And if things go wrong we've dealt with disruptions caused by everything from snow storms to volcanic eruptions.Our offices are wherever we are 24/7 so both Anna and I are always just a phone call , Whats App message , e-mail or text away so get in touch by whichever method suits you and let us show you what 'With us its Personal' can mean for you.Travel Counsellors is a 650m turonover company with a unique personalised business model, 24/7 availablity and a Trust Fund 100% guaranteeing your money's safe in all circumstances.

    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

    07709109376 London

    Hello, and welcome to my page. I run an independent, tailor-made travel business powered by Travel Counsellors. That means I deliver a uniquely personalised service. Every call, every customer, every booking matters to me. It is my business, after all. And you would be in good hands. I have over 20 years’ experience in a variety of roles in the travel industry, having been a tailor-made travel agent, an Australia and New Zealand specialist, an airline executive and a corporate account manager. I have lived and worked in America, Australia and New Zealand and have explored many places in Africa, Asia and Europe. I have often been asked what my favourite destination is and it is so hard to answer. I loved living in New Zealand, which is a country of such outstanding beauty. Another favourite destination is Laos, where the people were just so friendly. I love wildlife, so seeing gorillas up close in Rwanda and baby pandas in China are fond memories. While I adored the completely alien nature of my trip to Tibet, the sheer luxury of my hotel in Antigua is hard to top. Travel is my passion. I love exploring new places, learning about different cultures and enjoying new experiences. But as we have seen this past year, travel can be impacted by any number of outside issues. But this is not new to me. I have helped my customers through some tough times, such as 9/11 cancellations, Icelandic volcanic ash clouds, SARS and Ebola breakouts, airline strikes and airline collapse and now a global pandemic with COVID 19. All of these experiences have shown me the true value of using an agent that you know and one that you know you can easily get in touch with. Let me sit on hold to the airline to get your refund; let me search for new flights home when your airline call centre isn’t answering. More importantly, though, let me recommend the right holiday for you. As I work from home, I am on call 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. This means I can provide unparalleled personal service and care before, during and after your trip, offering you the high-end VIP service... without the high price!

At the age of 13, I travelled all over France with my parents and from then, the travel bug got me!My husband and I have travelled very extensively in Europe and the Mediterranean and have visited many, many countries including, Spain & The Balearics, The Canaries, France including Corsica & Andorra, Austria, Belgium, Germany, Greece & The Greek Islands, Croatia, Italy, Malta, Gibraltar, Turkey, Egypt, Israel and Iceland. Particular favourites have to be Valencia where we experienced Las Fallas, Menorca for a peaceful relaxing break, Crete for 2 weeks of the friendliest, most hospitable fun in the sun and Iceland for something totally different! Most recently, cruises have also become a favourite, loving being pampered and waking up somewhere different every day! Having cruised with many different Cruise Lines there are opportunities for so many unique experiences.In one way or another my entire working life has revolved around customer service, having been a Building Society branch manageress, worked in the event industry and owned my own Cafe. Giving my customers the best possible service is something that I have always prided myself upon and am very passionate about. So no matter what part of the country you live in and whether you are looking to book a short City break, a round the world cruise or anything in between, I can assure you that with the support of Travel Counsellors and their unique 100% Financial Trust and ATOL bonding, there is no better or easier way to book. Remember, that if you have any problems whilst on holiday you can pick up the phone and speak to me directly.

    I’m Adam, your local Travel Counsellor and I love what I do which is creating and booking your perfect getaways. 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. I also understand the travel landscape changes and using a trusted travel agent makes all the difference.

    My mission is for us to get to know each other so you feel comfortable just picking up the phone or sending me a message anytime you feel the need to escape and you know I will do my utmost to create or find exactly the holiday you are looking for. So why choose me?A little about me…My husband thinks I am annoying because “I have been everywhere”. “Have you been to the Maldives? Have you been to Japan? ‘course you have” with a role of the eyes. Well, no, not exactly….I haven’t been everywhere just yet but I am working on it! It helps that I used to be a scuba diving instructor, an entertainment team member as well as a shore excursions manager on cruise ships for 3 years where I was lucky enough to do one of my 2 epic round the world trips. I also worked for a travel insurance company, a car hire company, a luxury cruise call centre, a well known high street travel agent and a couple of large hotel chains. Now as your personal TC, my travel experience is finally not annoying anymore! This is how I can give you advice, recommendations and put my knowledge and passion to good use. At your service. And this service comes at no extra cost to you. From Svalbard to Antarctica and twice around the world including Australia, New Zealand, the East and West Coast of the USA, French Polynesia, the Cook Islands, Fiji, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam, Myanmar, Sri Lanka, around South America, the Caribbean as well as South Africa, India, Namibia, China, Japan and a lot of Europe too, I have been very lucky to have travelled or lived in amazing places. All these adventures slowed down when I had my first boy and suddenly, all inclusive holidays and cruises turned into just the thing I dreamt of (and needed!) so I have that kind of first-hand experience too. I am Jill, mum to Sienna, 8, and Enzo, 16, citizens of the world currently living Heybridge near the beautiful village of Maldon in Essex with my husband Leigh, now a retired firefighter and our cockapoo called Bentley. And why Travel Counsellors?With us, it's personal.From our first contact to find out all about your dream holiday to your return, I am with you all the way with 24/7 support wherever you are in the world.With us, it's also peace of mind.The Travel Counsellors Financial Trust provides 100% financial protection on everything you book with us.With us, it’s convenient too.I am available at a time that suit you as I can work from anywhere anytime.

You can then give me a thumbs up, request to book and pay securely through the app, If you are arranging a trip for a group, each of you can get access to the app and make their own payment.

I have been in the Travel Industry for over 27 years and pride myself in delivering outstanding service- at no cost to you. The most common question a travel agent will ever be asked is 'why should I book with you rather than online?'.

Here are my most frequently asked questions as a Travel Counsellor to give you more of an insight into what I do and how I can help you with your future holiday plans.Why should I book with you rather than through a website?

The first thing you would need to do is to complete my enquire form in full just here below:- Please ensure that i have full names, dates of births as per passports before you submit this to me.https://forms.office.com/e/bBDBzV1fD6?origin=lprLinkNext - make an appointment by clicking here below :-https://outlook.office.com/bookwithme/user/c4784f8542b941488d088608c94dd2bf%40travelcounsellors.com?anonymous&ismsaljsauthenabled=true I am available on the phone, in person, via email and on various social media channels so there's lots of different ways you can get in touch with me depending on your preferences.

I can also book the likes of Jet2 Holidays, Easyjet Holidays and many more - the bonus being you'll only ever deal with me rather than someone from a call centre so should something go wrong I will be the one to sort it out for you.Will it be more expensive to book through you? As a regular traveller myself I know how important it is to ensure you always get the best deal. I will always try my absolute best to ensure everything I offer to you is competitively priced. I can't always guarantee I will be the cheapest but I can guarantee that I will take all of the hassle out of your booking and I will always put you and your holiday first. So whilst you may find a slightly cheaper deal online, you won't find better value for money than the service I can offer you.If I book with you will I be financially protected? As a Travel Counsellor any booking you make with me has 100% financial protection which means should anything happen to any of the companies which operate your trip, you won't lose out. The financial protection we offer is completely unique and independent meaning whatever happens your money is safe with us. Our scheme financially protects every aspect of your trip whether you've booked your whole holiday with me or just your airport parking.

It's travelling with intention - whether it’s seeking adventure, finding relaxation and peace, or learning something new. Prior to moving into the travel space, my background as a Television Production Executive gave me the opportunity to film on locations around the world and gain a wealth of global travel experience.

I can give advice of places to go depending on your solo travel experience, help you plan itineraries and give safety tips.While you are on your journey, as your travel counsellor, you have the added comfort that I’m always just a phone call away to help you navigate, re-route or plan an additional adventure.
