It is not just my job it is my passion and my way of life. Over the years, I have planned and delivered unforgettable trips and personally looked after many guests in resort, experiencing first-hand how much of a difference genuine care and attention can make. Not every travel company offers that level of personal service but I always have, and always will. This is my own business, built on relationships, trust, and a genuine commitment to making travel feel effortless and special.Every Journey Tells a StoryOver the years, I have been fortunate to explore a wide range of destinations from city breaks and ski holidays to Disney adventures, cruises, and long-haul journeys including the Far East, Kenya, Egypt, and the Caribbean. I enjoy working with people who want their travel to be thoughtfully planned. I would expect no less for my own trips, so whether it is a short escape or something more complex and tailor-made, I will make sure it is well organised, personal, and stress-free.Home in Austria, Heart in YorkshireI am originally from Doncaster, but I have lived in the Austrian Tirol for the past 17 years.

Hi, I’m Sarah your Travel Counsellor based in Essex.My enthusiasm for all things travel has given me a very happy and successful 27-year career, working for leading travel companies and arranging bespoke itineraries that span the globe.My curiosity for travel has been there from a young age and I can remember as a child looking at the airport departure boards and thinking where can we go next? The excitement of visiting a new destination has never diminished.I’ve been lucky enough to travel to over 50 countries across six continents. From horseback riding in Argentina, climbing Mount Kinabalu in Borneo, to hot air ballooning across the Serengeti. If you have that trip of a lifetime planned it’s likely that I’ve visited it!Each holiday I arrange is unique and tailored to your specific requirements. I really care about your holiday experience and find it’s the fine details that make a good holiday, a great one, creating the best memories.My expertise lies in long haul travel from honeymoons and anniversaries, to milestone birthday celebrations, however as a mum of three children ranging in age from 7 to 14 years, I recognise the importance of finding the right destination and balance, for the best family holidays, from long haul adventures to Europe’s best kept secrets. My personal knowledge, attention to detail and impartial advice, means I can offer a personal service, enabling you more precious free time, no more trawling through the Internet or waiting in a queue or never getting the same person twice. I can be available at a time that suits, you from evenings to weekends – as a Travel Counsellor I have the flexibility to work outside regular working hours. So whether you’re looking for the best beaches in the Indian Ocean, a family holiday, city break or simply need some advice or inspiration, please feel free to call me and discuss your ideas and aspirations.I’ll look forward to helping you achieve lifetime memories. Best wishes Sarah

With over 25 years’ experience in the travel industry, I look forward to helping you with your travel arrangements whether that be a short break in the UK, a weekend in a stylish European city, a cruise or even a round the world holiday of a lifetime.I live in Manchester with my husband and two children, my daughter Madison who is 21 and my son Jaxon who is 13. I am of course kept on my toes with my children. Jaxon with music lessons and trampoline squad and Madison is currently at university studying Theatre and Performance.I have worked for various travel agencies. My first one was Going Places many moons ago, and I was bitten by the travel bug. I have worked for a large tour operator and also worked for a corporate business travel house. I left travel briefly to work in the family business, however I found I missed it terribly as travel really is my passion and when I decided that I wanted to go back, there really was only one company I would consider going to and that was Travel Counsellors. They are the best of the best. I have been lucky to have travelled a lot in my lifetime including Europe, Caribbean, USA including Las Vegas, which is one of my favourite places, Dubai, The Maldives, The Far East including Singapore and Thailand. I took my mother to Thailand for her 50th Birthday, she says it was a trip of a lifetime for her. I have been to Australia and the French Polynesian islands including Bora Bora where I worked as a holiday program presenter for a well-known Travel Tour Operator. I have done several cruises and I also achieved captain status award for Royal Caribbean/Celebrity Cruises and Azamara by completing all their product training. One of my ultimate favourite trips was Christmas Eve 2015 I took my children and my mum to Lapland to search for the real Father Christmas, it was magical.A lot of people ask me what my favourite holiday is to organise, and I have to say that an multi-centre holidays get me excited, trying to fit all the pieces together is like a fabulous puzzle. Travel Counsellors have a high standard of customer care and this is one of the most important things for me, I always will go the extra mile for you as my customers, so if there is anything I can do to make your trip even more special please do ask and if it’s in my power, then you can consider it done.A lot of people think using a personal travel advisor is going to cost them a lot more but I can tell you it doesn’t and the best part of all is you have the peace of mind of having someone at the end of the phone if something doesn’t quite go to plan and that is really priceless.I really do look forward to hearing from you and helping you your next trip whatever that may be or wherever that may take you.

Whether you are booking a quick trip to Europe, at home in the British Isles or planning something special long haul, I can provide you with a quality holiday or business trip with the great attention to detail that is vital in making the trip memorable.I have recently relocated, with my two children and two dogs, back to the UK to live in the beautiful region of Cornwall. Having spent the last 27 working in the travel and hospitality industry living and working in Greece, whilst spending many of my winters in Australia, becoming a Travel Counsellor has given me the perfect opportunity to use my wealth of knowledge doing what I love here. I grew up as a Captains daughter so travel was really in my blood and have always lived close to the sea wherever I have been. My parents were extensively travelled before we were even born and we grew up with tales of Singapore and the Far East, and the wilderness of the African jungle, with my father living ten years in South Africa. My own love affair with travel started over thirty years ago when I moved to Athens at a young age to start my adventures there. I spent many years travelling the country selecting accommodation for an upmarket specialist and have spent the last 12 years running a country retreat for walkers and lovers of the rural countryside on the island of Crete, and have an instinctive understanding of the needs of the more discerning and independent traveller.I look forward to helping you plan anything from the trip of a lifetime to a quick weekend away and can assist you with every aspect of your trip, as well as adding some amazing diversions to enhance any trip you are planning.Although I have contacts and knowledge of a great many places my expertise lies in Greece, I also have a vast knowledge of Australia having spent nearly 2 years of my life there spread over nearly 20 years.With the flexibility of working outside office hours and always being on the end of the phone, it is like having a personal travel agent in your pocket!

These experiences, coupled with a commitment to understanding your wishes and expectations, help me tailor individual packages which will hopefully create memories that last a lifetime.

When I’m not planning holidays, I’m enjoying life at home with my husband. We regularly care for two much-loved dogs: a miniature dachshund called Dobby and Brandy, a black lab guide dog. We love getting outdoors together – exploring the beautiful West Sussex countryside or heading off on relaxing UK staycations.My professional background has mostly been spent working in aviation. I have over 13 years of experience working in the industry which I now bring to my role as a Travel Counsellor. Travel has always been a huge part of my life, and now I’m fortunate enough to help others plan unforgettable journeys of their own. You may be wondering what inspired me to leave aviation and become a Travel Counsellor? It’s simple – There’s something incredibly fulfilling about helping others turn their travel dreams into reality, whether it’s a once in a lifetime adventure or a well-earned break closer to home. Some personal highlights from my travel catalogue include the Caribbean. We have an ongoing love affair, and I have been lucky enough to visit 23 different islands and destinations in and bordering the Caribbean Sea. These experiences have given me in depth, first hand knowledge of both popular destinations and hidden gems. Whether you’re after a luxurious beach retreat, a family-friendly break, or something a little more off the beaten track, I’m here to create a holiday that suits you perfectly. My other passion is Disney. I can plan unforgettable Disney holidays – from magical park visits and stays at Disney Resorts to cruises with Disney Cruise Line. Whether you’re planning your very first Disney experience or returning for another dose of magic, I’ll sprinkle some pixie dust to help make it truly special. So why choose me to book your trip? I believe that travel should be exciting, personal, and stress-free. That’s why I take the time to really get to know you, so I can tailor every detail of your trip to suit your needs and preferences. From the initial ideas to the moment, you return home, I’ll be with you every step of the way. Wherever you’re dreaming of going next, I’d love to help you make it happen.

After being in the travel industry for over 30 years, I still get excited when I get a bespoke itinerary to quote on to a new or exotic destination. I started my travel career in corporate travel but soon realised after doing a few holidays for my clients that I loved leisure travel. Over the past twenty years, I have pieced together some amazing trips for customers, from trips on a dogsled to meet Father Christmas in his log cabin under the Northern Lights, Hiking to glaciers in Patagonia's Torres del Paine national park, dream honeymoons on the Eastern & Oriental Express and of course magical Safari's under the African sky to name a few. Having lived in South Africa for more than 20 years, I have been very fortunate to travel to many places in Africa as well as the Indian Ocean Islands, Madagascar, Seychelles and Mauritius and the Maldives.My ability to go the extra mile and pay attention to the detail is what matters most to me and my happiness rests in the knowledge that I have made every available effort to get to know your expectations, personal likes and dislikes as well as your budget. I have access to multiple suppliers to package anything from a weekend away to a round the world trip and with your own TC App, I will be with you all the way.Post Covid, it has become essential to have someone by your side 24/7 to ensure that all bases are covered. Having the assurance of someone that cares about you will give you peace of mind throughout every step of your journey. I look forward to getting to know you and turning your dreams into reality.Sarah x

Hello I’m Rebecca, Thank you for visiting my website. I was born and raised in Oxfordshire and live with my husband and two children in Didcot. Having worked in Travel for over twenty years I have gained great experience and knowledge from the industry. I started my career as a modern apprentice, learning all about retail travel, from there I moved on to work in business travel and now I am a Travel Counsellor. I personally feel that holidays should be wonderful experiences, whether a City Break or a World Cruise, alone, or spent with loved ones, meeting new friends, exploring, relaxing and storing treasured memories of happy times. I have personally travelled from Barbados to the Balearics, initially child free, but now with my husband and two children on many family trips to the Mediterranean. Because of this personal experience and with my knowledge of the Travel industry I know what I want from my holiday and plan it accordingly. If you are anything like me you spend the time between holidays planning your next adventure whilst revelling in the memories of your previous trip. I would therefore invite you to let me create your perfect memories..... Working for Travel Counsellors gives me the flexibility to research, plan and book your holiday. I believe holidays should be tailored to the needs of the individual and whatever your requirements I will do everything to accommodate your wishes. I am always available to offer the best practical advice and service and will do my utmost to ensure your travel arrangements are perfect for you. Whether your journey and destinations are for an individual or a group, be assured of my complete support and attention to detail.

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

Hi, my name is Nikki and I am your local Travel Counsellor based in Cuckfield in West Sussex.

As I work from home, I can speak to you at a time that suits you, even if it is outside normal working hours. The way in which we are booking holidays has changed dramatically over the last 20 years, but the need to tap into expertise and the ability to contact your individual travel consultant with any questions (with no delays or waiting on the phone for hours) is something I have found customers really want - particularly for those with more complex and specialist holidays.I specialise in long haul, tailor-made and luxury travel and am able to create magnificent holidays all over South East Asia, Africa, Australasia, the Americas and around the world. Whether it’s a Tanzanian safari you’re after, a fully escorted tour around Indochina or a leisurely self-drive around the beautiful islands of New Zealand, I can help to create a magical holiday for you by taking away all the pressure and providing valuable and impartial advice on the best places to stay and visit.I have access to some of the best hotel, tour and airline rates in the industry and can also provide piece of mind when it comes to your money as all of the holidays I create are 100% financially protected by either ATOL or the Travel Counsellor Financial Trust. If you book a Travel Counsellors' package with me, you will also benefit from a unique flexibility and free amendments up to 8 weeks before travel. So there really is no need to be concerned about booking in advance.After the blip in 2020-2021, travel has really bounced back, and I'm guessing your desire to travel the world is as great as it's ever going to be so why not give me a try – I pride myself on treating everyone’s holiday as if it was my own and will do my utmost to provide you with the dedicated service you deserve.Nikki

Hi, I’m Laura Finlay, and I’m still pinching myself that I get to call this work! I live in Greater Manchester, am married to a wonderful husband and, fun fact, I do double duty: I’m still teaching and running my Dance Studio while also channeling my lifelong passion for travel by helping others plan theirs.My journey into travel truly took flight with Emirates as Cabin Crew, where I was whisked away to countless cities and countries. Each new airport code, every culture I experienced firsthand, and the joy of serving others inspired me; sparking both wanderlust and a commitment to extraordinary customer care.Dance has been another constant in my life. For nearly twenty years, I’ve taught and managed my own Dance School and Studio. That experience has taught me to nurture creativity, precision, and joy, and those same qualities now shape the itineraries I craft. Over time, friends and clients started coming to me for travel advice, unsolicited. They trusted me to help them choose where to go, where to stay, and how to make their travel dreams feel personal and seamless. After years of doing it for those I care about, I finally decided to follow that nudge and become a Travel Counsellor - and to continue teaching dance, too!I absolutely love creating journeys that resonate deeply. Maybe you dream of the roar of lions and wide-open skies on safari in Kruger National Park, or maybe you're craving ultimate serenity in an overwater bungalow in the Maldives, where every sunrise paints the ocean. Or, perhaps, you want to wander through smaller Spanish towns, hopping from tapas bar to boutique shop, soaking up local charm. I specialise in safari adventures, luxury escapes, and family-friendly trips that feel effortless yet extraordinary.What sets my approach apart is the blend of educator and aviator: precision meets warmth. I plan with creativity and care, founded in my teaching roots, refined by years of in-flight hospitality and customer service, and rooted in authenticity. Planning should never feel overwhelming: instead, it should be about excitement, discovery, and those “yes, this is exactly what I wanted” moments. And since I still teach and run my Studio and am an independent Travel Counsellor, I deeply understand time, balance, and creating something meaningful, whether in movement or in travel: offering flexible availability to suit your schedule whilst proudly being ATOL-protected; enabling you to travel with complete peace of mind knowing that your holiday is financially secured. So simply send me an email, DM on Instagram, or give me a call: whether you're planning a family reunion, a luxury getaway, or a wildlife adventure, I'm here every step of the way, from initial chat to landing back home with lifelong memories, I can't wait to help!

At Travel Counsellors we are not biased to any product, unlike the High Street travel agents who have all suffered recently due to vertical integration, redundancies, and the necessity of having to employ inexperienced staff due to the cut throat nature of this industry. Although I specialise in cruising, group skiing holidays, specialist family holidays with excellent childcare (I have 3 children of my own) and round-the-world tailor made itineraries, I have travelled extensively and can advise on any type of travel, be it a white water rafting trip on the Colorado River, Lapland for all the family, a convention in Hong Kong, a special once in a lifetime trip to Disneyworld, a honeymoon to Mauritius, wildlife viewing in the Galapagos Islands, swimming with dolphins in Bermuda or even flight-seeing over the Antarctic - I do it all ! Whatever your travel plans are, give me a call or email me and I will be more than happy to assist.With Travel Counsellors' purchasing power, for totally independent and unbiased advice, and outstanding prices, please contact me today. Thank you for your time.

My name is Jade and I am a Travel Counsellor from the South East corner of the UK. I have lived close to the coast my whole life, growing up in the seaside town of Ramsgate before moving over to a lovely spot in between the coastal towns of Margate and Broadstairs, where I now live with my partner and our two small children.I was bitten by the travel bug from a young age, as I was fortunate enough to go on lots of lovely family holidays across Europe and the USA. At twenty one I pursued a career in travel and became cabin crew for British Airways, flying all over the world, and landing in some places I had never even heard of! I lived the jet-setter life for a few years before deciding it was time to place my feet back on the ground and continue my travel career but in a new direction. After hanging up my wings, I worked for two high-street agents, Kuoni and TUI respectively. Both companies gave me huge insight and experience into all aspects of travel, from tailor-made adventures to package holidays and UK getaways, I gained so much valuable knowledge during my time on the high-street, which then eventually led me to decide to take the leap and launch my own travel business with Travel Counsellors.I absolutely love being a Travel Counsellor, initially because I loved the flexibility around my children, but now because I love the freedom and flexibility I can offer my clients, too. I am not bound by traditional high-street hours and targets, and my clients like to think of me as their personal travel advisor in their pocket, as I am only ever a WhatsApp message or phone call away.Before I had my children I was a real culture-vulture. For my own holidays I absolutely loved to go off the beaten track and explore little-known places, however my current holidays are now more family-focused, and very occasionally I like to visit an adult-only gem for some precious R&R.There really is no limit to what I can offer, from once-in-a-lifetime long-haul trips to a sight-seeing city break, cruise’s and even a relaxing weekend here in the UK, I have the experience, knowledge and technology to enable your dream holidays to come to life.Everything you book with me is 100% financially protected by Travel Counsellors unique Financial Trust and our ATOL bond. I also do not offer a fee for my services.If I sound like I could be the Travel Advisor for you and you would like help planning your next getaway, please do not hesitate to get in touch. I love nothing more than a Whatsapp or email with holiday ideas and plans!I look forward to hearing from you soon.

It's Nice to Meet YouHi, I am Katy and have recently set up my own franchise with Travel Counsellors based in Tunbridge Wells.Having the freedom to travel as an unaccompanied minor to California - sparked a lifelong love for adventure and the thrill of flying. I started my career working with TUI and Simply Ski, gaining first-hand experience in ski resorts, and crafting unforgettable holiday experiences. Later, I ran my own travel business, helping clients turn their travel dreams into reality.After taking a career break to focus on raising my two boys, my travel style evolved to embrace family-friendly holidays. Our adventures took us across the Caribbean- Trinidad, Tobago, Jamacia, and St Lucia - thanks to family work commitments. We then relocated to Dubai, where travel became even more enticing, opening doors to explore South Africa, Thailand, India, Sri Lanka, Kerala, The Maldives, and Mauritius, Croatia amongst many others.Now, I am thrilled to return to what I love most, creating tailor-made travel experiences as part of the Travel Counsellors team. The depth of care and attention given from researching, processing and delivering your quotes is what I love. If you have any questions during your holiday experience I am here to help. Whether you are dreaming of a relaxing luxury beach escape, a cultural city break, or a once-in-a-lifetime global adventure. I bring an individualised touch and a wealth of global insight. I am here to guide you every step of the way in planning your perfect holiday, offering a bespoke service tailored to your interests, needs, and budget.

Hi, I'm Karren Fulgoni, your personal travel expert.Originally from Somerset, I now live and run my business from my home in St Mary Bourne in the stunning surroundings of rural Hampshire.I have a passion for travel. I think this stems from spending school summer holidays camping in France. I have been very fortunate to have travelled and toured in many countries but a particular favourite area of the world is South East Asia; I have spent time in Bali with its stunning paddy fields and temples, Japan with its iconic red Torii gates and Mount Fuji, Thailand, Borneo, Cambodia and Vietnam. I love the Indian Ocean, having married my husband in Mauritius and then developed a particular soft spot for the Maldives, snorkelling off of the beach with the local turtles and stunning marine life. I have family in Australia so visiting them is always a great excuse to add on extra locations such as the Great Barrier Reef, Tasmania, Fiji, Hong Kong and Singapore.I am passionate about providing a personal, trusted service, on hand whenever you need me, helping you to make memories of a lifetime to treasure forever. I understand that 9-5 doesn't suit everyone and I am happy to talk at a time convenient to you, whether that be evenings, weekends or just over a coffee. From the first contact, I will be there for the entirety of your trip, ensuring a hassle and stress free booking. I can save you time and the effort of trawling the internet for that perfect package, booking a trip should be an enjoyable experience! I have access to many well known brochure holidays but also many specialist suppliers whom cannot be found on the high street. All of my holidays can be tailor-made to your specification and budget. I can help with small bookings such as a flight, UK experience or hotel but equally a complex multi-centre tour or cruise. The packages I can build for you can be fully tailored to include airport parking, transfers, excursions and experiences; I'll ensure that all the details such as passports, visas and dietary needs are take care of.Let's explore the world together!

Hello and welcome to my webpage!My name is David and I’m based in a small village in the North East of Scotland and I am delighted to be your personal Travel Counsellor. I have just recently joined the Travel Counsellors Community after working in the hospitality industry. I decided to take my passion for travel and adventure and turn it into my own business. I have been fortunate enough to travel to many places around the world including 60ish countries in North & South America, Asia, Africa and Europe. Cruising is my personal favourite, what’s not to love!! all those different experiences in one, the different destinations, the different cultures and of course the best bit the food….. and yes I will bring it up, the sea does move a bit but after almost 300 nights onboard a ship I can only remember a couple of days that the ship was moving.Here at Travel Counsellors, we don’t do off the shelf packages (well we can if you really want) we tailor every aspect of the booking to make it especially for you, whatever you want to do, wherever you want to do it. Whether that be taking the family to the most magical place on earth or lazing on a secluded beach to sailing the seven seas on a luxury cruise ship or maybe just a little cheeky city break to escape the weather. It’s all created bespoke for you and your family.There isn’t a better feeling than turning off that laptop for a couple weeks and then getting excited for what your about to experience and it’s that feeling I want to pass onto you but with a few extra’s like not having to plan a thing, I will do it all for you. Having all your documents and information stored on our fantastic MyTC app on your smartphone. Knowing I will be on hand to resolve any questions or problems than may arise, you never have to be on hold waiting for an agent that doesn’t know or care about you. With us everything is personal. As part of a multi award winning network of Independent Travel Counsellors you can relax in the knowledge that your money is protected by not only ATOL but by our unique Travel Counsellors Trust.So when your ready to book that next trip, I would be delighted if you give me a call or drop me an email and lets have a chat about it.

Hi, I’m Martin. I live in Hove on the south coast with my young family.My passion for travel began in the mid ‘90s with a round-the-world trip and working holiday in Australia. Since then, I’ve been fortunate enough to have travelled extensively worldwide, visiting over 50 countries along the way. My travels have taken me to places such as Thailand, Sri Lanka, Borneo, Cambodia, Vietnam, Myanmar, Japan, Hong Kong, Singapore, Brazil, the USA, New Zealand, Fiji, Kenya and a number of European countries too. More recently, I’ve been discovering destinations a little closer to home, such as the Canary Islands, that work very well for family holidays.Over the years, I’ve had some wonderful experiences that include watching cheetahs as the sun sets over the Masai Mara, sky-diving at the Whitsundays in Australia, taking a helicopter ride into the Grand Canyon and travelling on the tea country train through the tea plantations in Sri Lanka.Through work trips, I have first-hand experience of staying in some of the world’s finest hotels (and some more run-of-the-mill ones too!) and can pass on some great tips to ensure you get the most from your hotel choices. I have extensive flight cabin knowledge. Business or Premium Economy Class isn’t always as expensive as you may think and makes long haul travel far more enjoyable.Before becoming a Travel Counsellor, my career evolved from working in London for a ‘flights specialist’ and managing a team of 20+, to helping build a small travel ‘start-up’ into a successful travel business and more recently working for an award-winning luxury tailor-made tour operator creating privately guided tours throughout Asia. All these roles have required exceptional service levels and a very keen eye for detail. With over 20 years’ experience as a dedicated travel professional, I can offer impartial, tailored advice for your trip and great prices too! Your leisure time is very precious and I realise just how important holidays are. I take pride in providing inspirational ideas for your trip, something which will save you hours of online research. Planning a bespoke holiday itinerary can be a daunting and sometimes time-consuming experience. Leave the detail to me and I’ll ensure a stress-free, smooth running trip, and you’ll return home with amazing memories that will last a lifetime.For a no obligation quote (or just an initial chat about your holiday plans), please feel free to give me a call or send me an email. I’ll be very happy to help…

Hello, my name is Laura and I am based in West Byfleet, Surrey.My passion for travel started back on 9th May 1995 (that’s right – I remember the exact date!) I was 11 years old and I went on my first long haul flight to Florida. I loved the whole experience. The bustle of the airport, the flight, arriving somewhere I’d never been before, the food and then of course, Disney – I loved it all. I’ll never forget that trip – and come the 9th May each year, I remember “what a holiday!” that was. Money well spent, hey!Fast forward (almost!!) 30 years! I now have 2 children of my own and there is nothing we enjoy more as a family than exploring our wonderful world together. My passion for both travel and customer service is second to none, and having been disappointed on occasions with the service I have received, I’ve thought “I can do this so much better”. So here I am, opening myself up to you as your own personal Travel Counsellor. With the support of the award winning Travel Counsellors brand behind me, I’ll take care of all the details, and you take care of the memories. All safe in the knowledge that everything you book with me is 100% financially protected against supplier failure by either ATOL or the Travel Counsellors Trust, giving you absolute peace of mind. I pride myself on offering a full and comprehensive service. From short to long haul; luxury to low cost; multi destinations to all-inclusive resorts; from sun to ski… and sea to sand! Drawing on my own experiences having travelled extensively around the USA, Europe, the Middle East, Asia, Australia and South Africa, I truly believe I can create the holiday of your dreams, whatever that might be.I like to think I have a ‘few’ specialist areas: • Japan. We lived in the heart of Tokyo with 2 small children who both attended the British School in Shibuya. This was a unique and incredible experience giving us the platform to explore this fascinating part of the world. • USA. From East to West coast; the Sunshine State of Florida to Music City in Nashville; to the lights and sounds of New York to Las Vegas; from Route 66 to Pacific Highway 1! • Disney. Having visited parks in Florida, Paris, and Tokyo, I know a ‘few’ things Disney! • Italy – extensively travelled from North to South. Skiing in the Alps, city breaks in Rome, Venice, Milan and Florence, to private villas in rural towns. • Australia – Perth and the wine region of Margaret River on the West coast… to travelling the East coast from Carins to The Great Barrier Reef; Byron Bay to Sydney. • South Africa - I’ve explored the Garden Route, from Table Mountain in Cape Town, the wine tours of Franschhoek and seeing the Big Five on safari. I truly love all things travel, and with me it really is personal. It's time to make your memories, so give me a call and let's get planning.

Journeys Beyond the OrdinaryI’m Laura. I'm based in Wootton, Northampton and can’t wait to help you plan your next adventure.I plan authentic trips tailored especially to you. Whether you are looking for a weekend city break, adventure travel, a luxury getaway or a bespoke worldwide multi-stop itinerary, my focus is on attention to detail and a personalised service, creating truly unforgettable, magical travel moments for you.I started my travel journey at the age of 19 years old when I decided to take myself on a two-month trip to Israel and Egypt staying with local families and independently travelling – I threw myself in at the deep end to say the least! Having caught the bug, I moved to Japan and spent the next few years travelling China, South East Asia and Australia. Since meeting my husband, we have travelled to wondrous places across the globe together as a family.“Travel isn’t just about checking destinations off a list. It’s about those ‘pinch me, is it even real?’ moments”I have been fortunate enough to experience some unforgettable ‘pinch me’ moments including driving across Vietnam on the back of a motorcycle with the Easy Riders, trekking from Kathmandu to Delhi, taking in the staggering beauty of the Taj Mahal, staying with hill tribes in Northern Thailand, walking the Great Wall of China, snorkelling at the Great Barrier Reef, watching the sunrise from the top of Mount Fuji, helicoptering over Victoria Falls in Zambia, seeing the Northern Lights by snowmobile, sipping champagne overlooking the Grand Canyon and many more.I am passionate about helping create your ‘pinch me’ moment, whatever that looks like for you! Whether it’s a bucket list trip or a tranquil break to escape and unwind. I can help craft your journey, providing the very best stress free service.Everything you book with me as a Travel Counsellor is 100% financially protected through ATOL and the Travel Counsellors Trust, giving you absolute peace of mind.Laura Couch Tailor-Made Travel Consultant Journeys Beyond The Ordinary
