    Anita Miles

    01903 867 250 Worthing

    Hello, I’m Anita and I am your personal Travel Counsellor based in Worthing in West Sussex. I have lived in Worthing all my life and have been married to my husband for 40+ years. It has been a lovely place to bring up our 2 children, living very near the sea but with the South Downs as a beautiful backdrop. Our children have long since flown the nest and now I'm pursuing my dream and loving working within the travel industry.Travel is my passion and for as long as I can remember, studying travel brochures has been my hobby. 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.

    Hello! My Name is Sheena and I have been a dedicated travel professional for almost 20 years. It's fair to say that travel has always been my biggest passion in life since I first heard my intrepid grandparents telling their amazing adventure stories. After studying an International Tourism Management degree, I started my career as a long-haul tailor-made travel expert 19 years ago and have never looked back. I feel so lucky that my job is to help people create their dream honeymoons, weddings abroad, special occasion holidays and travel itineraries where the most amazing memories are created. Having always worked in the long-haul tailor-made holiday sector, there are not many places left in the world that I have not gained experience in arranging a trip to, so you can be rest assured that you will be in very safe hands with me organising your special holiday. Personally, I love exploring Europe these days too, so I enjoy arranging closer to home holidays for my customers as well.Of course, I love travelling and visiting wonderful destinations myself (68 countries and counting…). Australia, New Zealand and Southern Africa are 3 destinations that I have visited frequently as well as having lived in Florida and then Australia for a while. I have also travelled extensively in South America, North America & South East Asia as well as Russia, Mongolia and China. Being a homeworker means that I can be available to talk to you when you are not busy working or looking after the children, whether that’s on an evening or a weekend. How convenient - a Personal Travel Consultant available at times when you are! If you are local to me then I would love to meet in person over a coffee too.It all starts with a chat where I can understand what is important to you about your holiday, learn what your preferences are and why, and then I can make the best recommendations to suit you. Plus, to make sure your holiday is extra special, I will help arrange all the little extras that make it perfect, such as finding a romantic spot to propose, or the best seafood restaurant in the area, as well as any unique experiences. Being part of Travel Counsellors means that all of my packages are fully financially protected, providing security and quality to every trip - plus of course you have an expert onboard with 20 years’ experience.So please get in touch via email or by calling me, or simple place an enquiry above.

    Adrian Walters

    01395 350 017 Lympstone

    Hello, I’m Adrian.I’m proud to call the beautiful village of Lympstone home, nestled along the Exe Estuary in Devon. After being born and raised in London, I feel incredibly fortunate to now live surrounded by stunning coastline, rolling countryside and wide open skies. When I’m not planning unforgettable trips for my clients, you’ll usually find me running, cycling, walking the coast paths, or out on the water kayaking or paddle-boarding.Travel has shaped my life in more ways than one. After 11 years working for an award-winning High Street travel agency, I became a Travel Counsellor in 2018 — a move that gave me the freedom to offer something far more personal and tailored. Even through the challenges of recent years, my passion for helping people explore the world has only grown stronger.Over the years, I’ve arranged everything from UK weekend escapes and European beach holidays to self-drive adventures across the USA and once-in-a-lifetime cruises to Antarctica. No two trips are ever the same — and that’s exactly how I like it.My own love of travel began early. Twenty-five years ago, my wife Pauline and I stepped away from the world of London finance and set off on a year-long adventure around the globe — and we’ve never looked back. I’ve now visited more than 40 countries across five continents: sleeping under the stars in the Sahara, backpacking through China and Southeast Asia, and enjoying five-star luxury in Bali. Each journey has deepened my appreciation for the excitement, culture and connection that travel brings.If I had to choose favourites? South Africa for its extraordinary landscapes and diversity, Thailand for its warmth and beaches, and Italy — well, for absolutely everything.As your Travel Counsellor, my focus is simple: you. I take the time to understand your interests, preferences and priorities so that every detail of your trip is thoughtfully designed. Whether you’re planning a dream holiday of a lifetime, a relaxing family beach break, a romantic city escape, a ski adventure, a business trip or your honeymoon, I’ll ensure it’s seamless and unforgettable.Unlike traditional travel agencies, I’m completely independent and impartial, with access to thousands of trusted travel partners — from leading airlines and hotels to tour operators, cruise lines and car hire companies. I’m also supported by a 24-hour duty office and benefit from full financial protection via the Travel Counsellors Financial Trust and ATOL, giving you complete peace of mind.Working from home allows me to offer flexibility and personal service that fits around you. I’m always happy to meet in person to discuss your plans and make sure everything is perfect from the very beginning.I’d love to help you plan your next adventure — please get in touch and let’s start creating something special.

Actually, living with 2 dogs, 2 cats, 3 chickens and in a full renovation project means it is not quite as quiet as I would like it to be, but I am working towards it being so one day!I was in my late teens when I first went to work abroad in Germany and was immediately bitten by the bug of all things foreign. Everything intrigued me, from learning the language, appreciating a different culture, enjoying new culinary experiences and especially the pure adventure of it all. My first big trip was to the USA where I hitch hiked through a dozen states, which brought a wealth of weird and wonderful experiences. I then went on to finance my travels by working ski seasons and travelling a different continent each summer. Hence it was a natural progression for me to go onto work in travel and combine my experience and passion and I have now amassed over 30 years in the industry, mostly working as a travel consultant. During this time I have gained a wealth of knowledge about airlines, countries, different routes, specialist lodges, unique boutique accommodations and quality hotels. I take great pride in taking the time to find the ones you will enjoy most. I am a worldwide consultant but specialise in booking business class flights, quality hotels and designing bespoke itineraries – no two are ever the same! I believe that booking a holiday is a very personal experience and only by getting to know people, their tastes and interests that you can truly create the ideal itinerary for them. I think that the whole booking experience should be an enjoyable process from the first conversation to the unpacking of the suitcase. Working as a travel counsellor allows me to be completely flexible and independent in the way I work and thus being able to offer a customised, nothing is too much trouble, expert service to my clients. So if this sounds of interest or you would just like to have a chat or call for some advice then please don’t hesitate to get in touch.Happy travels, Jan

    Sarah Stevenson

    01556 350367 Dumfries and Galloway

    Hello, I’m Sarah Stevenson, your personal Travel Counsellor. My journey in travel began in the early 2000s when I lived and worked in beautiful Mallorca. Fresh from completing my degree in Spanish and Catalan, I found myself immersed in resort operations—supporting customers, solving problems, and ensuring everyone enjoyed the holiday they’d worked so hard for. That early experience shaped my belief that great travel starts with great service. Travel later took me into education, where I taught HNC and HND Travel & Tourism before qualifying as a Primary teacher. Teaching global citizenship and learning for sustainability allowed me to bring the wider world into the classroom—something I’ve always been passionate about. Now, I’ve come full circle, returning to the travel industry where my love for exploring different countries, cultures, food, and people truly belongs. I want to share that passion and help others fill their own lives with unforgettable experiences. Trust and genuine relationships are at the heart of how I work. I take the time to get to know my customers because I care—about your wellbeing, your expectations, and creating memories that will last a lifetime. Whether you’re looking for a chic city break, a blissful beach escape, an all inclusive, a ski adventure, a luxury cruise, or long haul exploration, I’m here to design a trip that feels just right for you. I’ve been fortunate to travel extensively—from most of mainland Europe to Iceland, Morocco, Egypt, the UAE, Singapore, Australia, New Zealand, Chile, Argentina, Brazil, the Caribbean, the USA, Canada and more. The UAE is my favourite sunshine boost getaway, and Switzerland holds a special place in my heart for its mountain air and snow sports (and my sister lives there too). With the financial protection and personal support of Travel Counsellors—plus tools like the myTC app and our 24/7 Duty Office—you’ll always have peace of mind.

    Hello! My name is Mark and I’m your Travel Counsellor based in Chester.On this page you will find out more about me. Why I do what I do, what my core business values are and much more!I grew up in The Netherlands and I have been very fortunate in that I have visited all 7 continents before turning 30. I have travelled in many different ways from more adventurous off the beaten track journeys, to taking it slow in gorgeous seaside resorts. I have met amazing people along the way (including my now wife!), seen the most beautiful and dramatic landscapes in New Zealand for example. I got stunned by how raw and real the wildlife is in Africa and Antarctica of course (really feels like you’re in a David Attenborough documentary)! And I’ve been blown away by how beautiful cultures can breathe through generations around Asia and South America, for the better..In turn travel has made me want to inspire others to see the places they dream of. To experience travel in so many ways has given me the advantage to really identify what my clients are looking for when you describe what your wish-list looks like. In Chile is where I started my career in the travel industry. I now have a vast experience in creating entire Round The World journeys, completely tailored holidays from start to finish, island retreats, Honeymoons, Safaris, active adventure holidays and more.After 7 years of experience in the travel industry, creating bespoke experiences for an abundance of happy customers, I felt it was time to really start doing it my way. Working for a high street travel company I always felt a little held back in what I was able to do for my clients, now that is a thing of the past! As your Travel Counsellor, I am impartial to any supplier and I have all the means to always go the extra mile and do right by you. I promise you the best service from our first contact, until you come back and want to plan your next experience.After all, life is about creating experiences, right?Whether you have big plans or only a small idea, let me know. Get in touch and let me enrich your dreams, turn it into reality and keep it hassle free for you.I look forward to hearing from you soon!

    Hi, I’m Angela - thanks for visiting my page.I am looking forward to being able to share my passion for travel with you, and find you the perfect trip. Travel is my calling and I have been in the industry for over 20 years - my entire working life in fact.I currently live in Melbourn nr Royston with my husband - who I met whilst working abroad - and my two now not so little girls Chloe and Alice who are 13 and 7. As a family we spend a lot of time travelling the country as we have friends and family all over - a perfect excuse for a road trip and we all love the thrill of an airport and exploring somewhere new.I realised my calling in travel at 16 when I studied travel and tourism at college. From here I worked in Crete and then spent eight years living and working all over France and Italy.After that I spent two years selling tailor-made trips to Australia and New Zealand - and all places en route in each direction! I loved creating these holidays of a lifetime that really meant something to my clients who relied on my expertise as an Aussie/New Zealand/Hong Kong Specialist to make their trip perfect. I love getting my teeth into somewhere new, and virtually exploring the area unravelling its secrets. I then spent eight years working for a schools tour operator, selling curriculum based trips for groups of students - which really uses my European and US city break knowledge. I was also a long-haul specialist for those schools who wanted to visit China, Vietnam, Cuba and India. I have travelled to many of the places I have sold so have first-hand knowledge and can help you feel at home when you get there. I have been around the world (almost) but my absolute favourite destination is Venice. It is such a beautiful city - it helps that it was here where my husband proposed!I can’t wait to help you put together your dream trip - be it a weekend break in Europe or a multi-centre Australia trip of a lifetime - be assured, I will put as much care and attention into it as I would my own trip and I can work on it at a time that is convenient to you. Working from home in Royston, Herts gives me that flexibility to be there when you need me!So what are you waiting for - let’s get planning your trip!Give me a call or send me an email.

    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

My saying is, “I haven’t been to everywhere yet, but it’s on my list”.I joined Travel Counsellors because I really believe in personal service, I have always excelled in customer service, I remember the “old days” when nothing was too much trouble and it was just the norm to go above and beyond for a customer and that’s what I will do for you here at Travel Counsellors.

    Ruth Inglis

    0131 224 0200 Edinburgh

    Welcome - it's lovely to have you here!I'm Ruth and I offer a truly personalised travel service. I craft amazing adventures and epic experiences creating moments that truly matter for you and your family! First a little about me. I’m married to Roland and have 3 fabulous lads Jake, Mac and Gus and a wee white Pomeranian called Martha. I’d travelled a fair bit as a child including living and going to school in Saudi Arabia. But it was during my student days on a trip to Australia and Indonesia when my passion for travel was well and truly ignited. I remember then (over 30 years ago) keeping a travel journal and writing about my experiences; from diving in the Whitsundays on the Great Barrier Reef to camping on Fraser Island and ambling through the rice terraces of Bali. It's fair to say I am a travel addict! If I’m not actually travelling (I have over 30 years experience of booking my own travel), then I’m usually talking about it (love recommending locations to others), writing about it (you will see some of my blogs on this page) or planning my next adventure. I’m blessed to have seen a lot of the world already - no fewer than 50 countries - some visited many times over. This means I know what makes a fantastic trip. Having spent over half my life as a government lawyer I am also a stickler for detail which means your holiday will be planned and booked to perfection with nothing left to chance.So why would you book your next escape with me? Well, firstly I'm part of multi award winning Travel Counsellors, a global company with industry leading technology, 5 star Trust Pilot reviews and who are partnered only with trusted suppliers. Travel Counsellors has won numerous awards including Best National Travel Retailer and the Queen's Award for Enterprise. With our MyTC App you can have all your quotes and bookings in one place and make easy payments when it suits you as well as receive alerts if for example your flight is delayed.Secondly, booking with me is different to booking online or on the high street. Quite simply, I care and every trip I craft is made with you in mind. I get to know you and your preferences and together we create something special. Because with a Travel Counsellor it's personal. I'm here with you every step of the way and available to you 24/7 at a time that suits you - so no more emails disappearing into black holes or being on hold to faceless call centres. Finally, we offer no ifs no buts 100% financial protection with anything you book with us in the event of supplier failure.So let me take the stress away from you.

    Hello and welcome to my webpage. I am based in Solihull just south east of Birmingham and I have over 25 years’ experience in the travel industry. Since the first time, as a child, when I was taken on a ferry from Harwich to the Hook of Holland and then by train to the south of Germany I have been hooked on travel. I have had experience in many aspects of the travel industry including front line sales consultant, tailor made specialist and management and during this time I have built strong relationships with customers and travel suppliers. I understand from first-hand experience how travel suppliers operate so can use that experience to advise you in arranging your perfect holiday or business trip. Corporate travel is a speciality for me having worked as a senior manager with a leading travel management company for more than 20 years. Whether you need a hotel in the UK or a complex business trip I can arrange this for you. And it does not stop there, I can also provide you with account management advice, management information on your business travel trends and spend and the unique Travel Counsellors travel app. When I am not working I love to travel myself and have visited over 50 countries during my adventures. Some of the highlights of my travels have been diving in the Maldives and the Seychelles, Skiing in Colorado, Safaris in Kenya and South Africa, trekking up to the spectacular Machu Picchu in Peru, visiting historical monuments in Tibet and seeing the amazing Terracotta Warriors in Xian China to name but a few. But I have also travelled extensively in Europe and the UK and as a business traveller I understand the complexities involved and what is important to you when you are travelling for business having done many business trips both long and short haul. My passion lies with travel and offering my customers the very best personal travel experience. So whatever your travel requirements, be it a tailor made far away holiday of a lifetime, a chill out week a bit closer to home, a city break, a business trip or a weekend away in the UK I can help you.

    Look at the web page of any Travel Counsellor and you will see we all sing the same song, we are all passionate about travel.The passion comes from discovery of a new exciting destination or the revisiting of places familiar.The fun begins when the decision is made about the latest holiday choice for yourself or a joint adventure to look forward to with friends or loved ones. I just love helping people towards that moment when the deposit is paid and the ticking off of the calendar can begin.My fascination with travel began when I was very young as my father worked abroad for long periods in the late 50s and 60s when it took a week to get to South America! Where most people see hustle and bustle at an airport, I see everyone either at the start or the end of an adventure.For me, guest experience is paramount. The nicest part is getting to know my clients so I can help them find the perfect bespoke holiday experience. I have travelled and lived for five years in Australia, travelled and lived for 16 years in Spain, visited USA, Indonesia, Greece and the Islands, Italy, France and the Baltics. Before joining the Travel Counsellors team I worked as a cruise specialist for 4 wonderful years for one of the most award winning cruise companies in the world.

Which means all you need to worry about is packing your suitcase and remembering where your passport is. I work from home so that I can be there for my two amazing kids, which means I can be flexible to work around your schedule and am available to speak outside of the normal 9-5. Destinations on my bucket list include Sri Lanka, Mauritius and Belize – what’s on yours? I’d love to find out more and help you create your memories that will last a lifetime.

    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 ‘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.

    Welcome! My name is Hannah, I love to travel and I love to help you travel too!Since a young age, I have been fortunate to travel many places and experience many different holiday types. My passion and love for travel is now apparent in my children and we are always planning and discussing our next get away. In the last few years, we have been lucky enough to have some amazing trips, in particular Lapland, Iceland, African Safari Adventure and our first taste of Asia. This summer we enjoyed some time in Devon and our annual trip to France. If you know me, you’ll know every year I say it’s the last and then off we go again! Secretly, we actually love it! It’s easy as we travel by ferry and even Lenny our Lab comes along! This year we went to Normandy for the first week and then travelled down to the Loire Valley for our second week. We’ve been to both areas before; Normandy is rich in its history and very interesting with the beaches and museums. The Loire Valley, renowned for its Chateaux’s, beautiful scenery and Rose Wine is a favourite of ours. Our Italian Adventure in October which saw us exploring Pisa, Florence, Lucca, and Siena and then a train down to Rome. We had an amazing time, fabulous food and locals and was great to fit so much in.This year we have Thailand to look forward to, we are visiting the North this time, rich in culture and traditions we're hoping to see another side of Thailand. Then in the summer the girls and I are off on our first cruise around Scandinavia! I've enjoyed visiting many cruise ships over the last couple of years and did cruise many moons ago but so much has changed, we are very much looking forward to it.I absolutely love hearing from you and helping you create wonderful memories. I truly care about your holiday, I treat it like my own; even down to producing local guides, recommending trips, local information, and restaurants if that is what you’d like.

    Maria Foxwell

    01761 347130 Radstock

    Hi, my name is Maria, I was born and bred in Somerset, and seem to have a strong West Country "Farmer" accent! so people tell me! I always knew since school I either wanted to a a Travel Agent or a Florist and lucky for me, I got a job in Travel at the aged of 16 and have never left the industry! From starting out working in Tour Operations putting together Tailor-made Bespoke Rugby Tours to continuing through the travel agencies on the high Street to now being a Business Owner for the last 20 years. Having my own business gives my the flexibility to work the hours that suit me and my clients and that can look like a Teams call, clients visiting my office in Midsomer Norton (by appointment) or me meeting them for coffee or a breakfast perhaps, or visiting them at home at a time that suits them. My working hours are very different each week but predominately I am in my Office itself 8.30-4.30 Mon-Fri however I work outside these hours to suit. I have been fortunate enough to have travelled to some pretty amazing places in the world and have been able to take my family too. Our Girls , whom are all grown up now and young adults, have seen the world from their early ages so travelling as a family, is something I completely understand and can relate too. As the girls are grown up, My husband and I are now starting to holiday as a couple again and for one it is a lot Cheaper! The one thing I enjoy the most about having a Travel Business, is I get to see many years of a client and watch them grow. I have the Privilege to deal with couples. Solo travellers, and families throughout many years of their lives and go through the changes that life brings, such as an Honeymoon, maybe a wedding abroad, the 1st time travelling with a child/children on a family holiday, or going solo for the 1st time and also later in life taking their grandchildren away and dealing with the whole family through generations. This is what I love- building the relationships and adapting to the needs and desires of the clients at that time in their lives. I must tell you, where I've travelled (but I cant tell your a favourite as there are so many destinations that have captured my heart over the years) However Cyprus is where we got married and that will remain a special place, Morocco is the new favourite, however Croatia is also a favourite too! I love a city breaks and loved Dublin, Krakow, Barcelona and my favourite is Amsterdam!When it comes to further a field, Turks and Caicos' has the most beautiful beach I have ever seen, St Lucia, is the most stunning Island and Thailand was full of the most beautiful Culture and the Elephants were just one of those experiences I will never forget and not forgetting the glorious adventures we had in Canada too! A little about what I do in my personal life- I love watching Women's and Men's Rugby, I am a Bath supporter! I love watching F1 and have been to a few races in my time. I love cooking and a bit of gardening, Most of all, I love food and travelling and for me the two go hand in hand! If you would like to experience any of these wonderful places or experiences in the world and beyond.. do get in touch as I would love to help.

The world has limitless opportunities for exploration and discovery; the untouched jungles of Burma, blissful beaches of the Maldives, or the majestic snow-capped peaks of the Canadian Rockies.

I've embraced the perils of nature by scuba diving some of the ocean's best coral reefs, abseiling Table Mountain, and summiting Mt Kilimanjaro. In contrast I've also chilled on picturesque beaches in the Caribbean, Dubai, and Thailand, and I've explored some of the world's most electrifying and diverse cities, like NYC, San Francisco, Vancouver, Kuala Lumpur, Bangkok, and Sydney.Born in Maidstone and residing in Medway with my dazzling wife and three girls, I have over 20 years’ experience in customer service with seven of those in the travel industry, extensive first-hand travel knowledge, and a warm, friendly aura.

    Cara Hudson

    01282 792970 Nelson

    Hi, I’m Cara - your personal Travel Counsellor based in Nelson, Lancashire.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, that certainly made me stand out. But for me, jumping on a plane to my mother’s wooden stilt family home deep in the Thai jungle was simply part of childhood. Those early adventures sparked a lifelong love of travel that eventually became my career.My first trip to Thailand in 1987 even made the local headlines, and since then I’ve returned more than 30 times - including four years living there while teaching English. My travels have taken me across Asia and far beyond: journeying up Mount Fuji in Japan with my sister and Japanese brother-in-law, exploring the awe-inspiring temples of Angkor in Cambodia, discovering the beautiful islands of the Philippines, and sleeping under the stars in the Dubai desert.Other highlights include cruising through Alaska (with a close-up grizzly bear encounter!), road-tripping through the Canadian Rockies, snowmobiling across Icelandic glaciers, and watching the Milky Way appear above us during a safari game drive in South Africa.With nearly 25 years’ experience in long-haul leisure travel, I bring a wealth of knowledge and first-hand experience to the holidays I create. I’ve travelled extensively with leading airlines such as Qatar Airways, Singapore Airlines and Emirates in both Economy and Business Class, and stayed in some exceptional hotels around the world - including the famous Emirates Palace in Abu Dhabi.My role is simple: to take away the stress (and hours!) of searching the internet or queuing in travel agencies. Instead, I’ll design a holiday tailored completely to you, with the kind of personal service you simply won’t find on the High Street. Whether it’s a special anniversary, honeymoon, or a once-in-a-lifetime trip, I’ll make sure every detail is just right. I’m also very fussy on behalf of my clients - if something isn’t good enough, it simply doesn’t make the cut.I love creating trips so vividly that I can picture the whole journey myself. (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 just as excited to hear your highlights when you return.And because life doesn’t always happen between 9-5, I’m available evenings and weekends too. Whether by email or phone, we can chat in whatever way suits you best.I look forward to having a good natter and helping you plan your next adventure.
