Charlotte Daines

Based In Trowbridge
+4401225650094It’s Nice to Meet YouHello there! I'm Charlotte, your local travel advisor in the quaint village of Holt, nestled between Bradford-on-Avon and Melksham in Wiltshire. My passion for travel blossomed early on, from childhood getaways to exploring new places with friends. After starting my career in 2001 at a travel agency, I've since worked with luxury brands, airlines, and high-end corporate clients. Along the way, I've explored extensively - from the tropical beaches of Asia to the historic sites of Europe. A volunteering stint in India redirected me to work with animals for a few years, before the travel bug bit once more. Now, I combine my decades of industry experience with insider knowledge to design deeply personal, transformative trips for discerning travellers like you. Whether you seek a family vacation, romantic honeymoon, or an off-the-beaten-path adventure, I'm here to listen and bring your travel dreams to life. My goal is to craft unforgettable journeys that immerse you in the incredible beauty, cultures, and wonders of our world. I look forward to getting to know you and planning your next memorable trip! Let’s talk soon, Charlotte Booking with a Travel Counsellor means that your booking is 100% financially protected and you will also have our complete support when you’re on holiday. As well as myself there is a 24/7 duty office who you can contact should you need to from wherever you may be in the world. In the words of Hans Christian Andersen ‘To Travel is to Live’ -

+4401629888950Hello and thank you for visiting my web page. With over 25 years experience working within the travel industry I can honestly say that travel is in my blood. As a child my parents lived and worked in the Middle East so together with my siblings we visited many interesting and beautiful countries and so my love affair with travel began.After graduating from University I packed my rucksack and left for America. Together with a friend we worked and travelled down the East Coast following our dreams and creating life long memories. On return to the UK I continued my adventures and applied to become a ski guide in the northern French Alps for Crystal Ski. Like many graduates before me one season led to another and following a year out travelling in Australia and New Zealand I moved to the Austrian Tyrol to work as a customer service manager for TUI Travel. This is where I met my husband and our first daughter was born in the beautiful town of Kitzbuhel. After enjoying the next couple of years surrounded by the breathtaking scenery of The Austrian Alps we made the decision to re-locate back to the UK.I continued to work for the Tui Travel Group as an agent in Matlock, Derbyshire and built up over 13 years service. In 2014 I was awarded Regional Travel Advisor of the year and began to think about broadening my horizons and setting up my own business. As a travel Counsellor I believe in offering truly independent travel advice coupled with outstanding service. Over the years I have built up lasting relationships with my customers and pride myself on designing seamless travel arrangements based on first- hand experience and extensive product knowledge. Whether it’s a fun family holiday to the Balearics, a Caribbean cruise or a bespoke tailor-made tour of China I would love to help you with your plans and bring your dreams to life. “Travel is the only thing you buy which makes you richer” AnonymousI look forward to hearing from you and being an integral part of your journey.Kind Regards Sarah -

+4401621670066My 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.

It's the top achievement at TC, making me one of the top 10 percent of the Travel Agents. I'm proud of this achievement I've worked super hard ensuring I provide my clients with the best possible experience on their hard earnt holidays. Well done for finding me, you can put your next holiday idea in my capable hands ! Before becoming a Travel Counsellor I worked for over 15 years in the city on a busy trading floor for Bank of America, a big American investment bank selling Fixed Income products. It was a fantastic, thrilling, competitive and demanding job but not very family friendly. On the upside I travelled extensively for work and pleasure so that’s when I realised I had a great existing skill set, a perfect foundation for a new career in travel as it is something I'm very passionate and fussy about. Friends and family have sought my holiday advice for years knowing I do that extensive, in-depth research, demand high quality, expect good value, love lots of luxury and I know just how important holidays are!But here we are 7 years on drawing on those years of experience in booking my own family holidays - young kids to now demanding teens, I know exactly how important it is to ensure it meets everyone’s requirements. We’ve had many luxury holidays in Dubai, Oman, Maldives, Abu Dhabi and had equally amazing experiences, making memories travelling extensively in Europe and travel annually to Greece (as my father is Greek) so that country is dear to me. Whilst luxury has its place it’s also nice to experience the culture and the authenticity of a country too. I work from home, I have many local clients but so many are based all over the UK, some are abroad too. With 24/7 Duty office support, in-depth training Travel Counsellors and my growing passion for travel and lovely clients I really have the dream job! I’m available throughout the day and evenings - even if I’m not at my desk I will always respond quickly so I can help you start making your exciting holiday plans without delay! Competitive prices, with first class service! So apart from my annual trips to Greece 2022 and 2023 has been busy with some must see destinations: Cappadocia - stunning landscape and hot air balloons Jordan for my big birthday taking in Petra, Wadi Rum, Dead Sea and Amman A weekend trip back to Morocco enjoying the souks and luxury hotels just outside the Medina Seychelles for Xmas visiting Mahe, Praslin, Silhouette and La Digue Barbados Girls Trip - rebooked for March 2024 too ! Mainland Greece - Romanos and the new W Hotel Greek Island Hopping - Naxos, Andros, Ios and Paros were our family destinations for 2023 Kerala - luxury houseboat and tour of Kerala finishing in Doha Thailand - Elephant Hills Next year - more big plans for me and you !

Returning home, a career within the travel industry seemed a natural choice. I have 15 years’ experience working for a multi award-winning company organising bespoke and often complex journeys. This has given me an extensive knowledge of the industry as well as being able to indulge my passion for travel.I am fortunate to have travelled to over 50 countries and can offer first-hand experience. Some of my highlights include; trekking to see mountain gorillas in Rwanda, over-landing through Central America, seeing the Pyramids of Egypt and cruising the Nile, marvelling at the temples of Angkor Wat, and soaking up the music and atmosphere on the streets of Havana. Along the way I’ve stayed in an eclectic range of accommodation, from simple beach shacks to luxurious villas and palaces, so I can offer guidance whatever the budget.For peace of mind, anything you book with me is 100% financially protected by the Travel Counsellors Financial Trust and ATOL.

No matter how big or small, I always manage your trip with the same attention to detail as I would my own. Through the years I have built up a 'little black book' of hotel, supplier and airline connections, all my contacts are invaluable when offering my clients that extra VIP touch or requesting that room with the best view.I have been a travel agent for over 20 years, but my real passion for travel started as a child. Before my five siblings and I were born, my parents travelled extensively. I can remember sitting for hours flicking through the enormous photo albums from their travels throughout Europe and on to Asia. Maybe it was the glamour of the 70s VW Camper set into the Italian Alps, or my parents in their matching Ray-Ban’s at the top of the Great Wall... either way, I was hooked and couldn’t wait to travel the world myself!I joined the industry as an apprentice in a high street Thomas Cook store in Sussex. Within two years I was working in their City of London flagship store where I won a Customer Service Award. After five years at Thomas Cook I took the leap into an independent leisure and business travel agency in Blackfriars - they were later acquired by an American travel management company. Here I ran the Luxury Leisure department, where I booked tailor-made leisure and business trips till I left five years later. During this time, I took the opportunity to work from the New York head office to expand on my global knowledge. Prior to starting my business I worked in Roadshow, Events & Marketing roles across different financial services sectors in the City of London. As well as time spent at a boutique hotel specialist and luxury villa agent.I can’t wait to help plan your next adventure, whether that’s a hopper flight to Dublin for business or a round the world cruise, you can rest assured you are 100% financially protected through Travel Counsellors Financial Trust and ATOL.I am contactable 24/7 so please do pick up the phone or drop me a message to chat over ideas and inspiration for your next trip.

I appreciate that all stages of the booking cycles are equally important, this means I’ll be with you every step of the way to ensure everything runs smoothly.

It's now more about views, food and location than cheapest possible and questionable hostels.So far, I have visited more than 50 countries stretching from North America to South East Asia and the Caribbean to Australia. People often ask where is my favourite place I have visited. It's a question I struggle to answer as each destination offers a different experience.

+4401257822875Hi, my name is Heather and I live in Standish, Wigan with my husband and our two children. I’m an independent travel consultant, creating bespoke itineraries to dream destinations. I have over 18 years’ experience working in the travel industry as long haul cabin crew for Virgin Atlantic, a career which afforded me the opportunity to travel all over the world. Having a young family and a husband working overseas, unfortunately put an end to my globe-trotting career, however I have recently put my travel knowledge and experience towards my business as a travel counsellor, allowing me to plan and organise your holiday at a time that suits you. Throughout my career in the travel industry, I would always take pride in providing outstanding customer service with acute attention to detail to ensure my customers always received a unique experience. This mindset is at the very heart of my business. I have travelled extensively with my work and also with family and friends from exploring destinations such as Borneo, Mexico, Australia, the Caribbean and Canada to the bright lights of New York, Las Vegas and Paris. I visit Dubai frequently and love to ski in the French alps as often as I can. My children adore all things Disney and Universal which is where we have spent numerous family holidays. Last year we extended our Floridian trip with a road trip to the Florida keys and Miami. Last year, I was fortunate enough to tick off a big bucket list trip on board the world famous Orient Express, travelling in opulent style from Venice to Paris was truly the trip of a lifetime. Being a Travel Counsellor enables me to provide a tailor made travel concierge service to my clients utilising first-hand knowledge of a variety of destinations, providing both value and peace of mind for the holiday you want. I am entirely self-employed which permits me to be available when my clients need me. Whether that’s in the evening or over the weekend and you will never have to communicate with a chat bot or a call centre, I will be there for you every step of the way, from planning your trip to answering any queries you may have along the way. I can arrange bespoke multi-destination itineraries, car hire, lounge passes, attraction tickets and much, much more. All that’s left for you to do is pack your case! Being a member of the Travel Counsellor family means I have connections to hundreds of suppliers including all major tour operators as well as smaller independent suppliers which can’t be booked online. Having the backing of Travel Counsellors also means all holidays are 100% ATOL protected, clients have 24 hour access to a support team should any unexpected problems happen in resort and all payments are kept in trust until you return from your holiday. For me, creating your perfect itinerary is more than just booking a holiday, its creating memories and experiences for you and you loved ones to cherish for a lifetime. So whether you’re looking to book a city break, a road trip or something completely off the beaten track, contact me today. It will be my pleasure to make your dream holiday a reality. I look forward to talking with you soon. Heather -

+4407824997875Welcome, I am so pleased you have found me.My boutique travel agency powered by Travel Counsellors means you get the very best of both worlds: the care, flexibility and personal attention of a small business, combined with the strength, buying power and technology of a trusted global travel company. Every journey I design is crafted around you, your lifestyle and your dreams, with a focus on creating meaningful experiences that you will talk about for years to come.Travel today is about so much more than simply getting from A to B. It is about connection: to people, to cultures, to nature and to yourself. My role is to really listen to what matters to you, understand how you like to travel and then quietly take care of everything behind the scenes. From our very first conversation to the moment you arrive home, I am there to guide, reassure and inspire, so you can travel with complete confidence.Because I am part of the Travel Counsellors family, I have access to an extensive network of specialist suppliers, trusted partners and fellow travel experts right around the world. This gives my clients the advantage of competitive pricing, excellent availability and clever technology that keeps everything running smoothly. But you will never feel like just another booking in a system. With me, your holiday is always personal, never off the shelf.I specialise in travel that feels tailor made: whether that is a sustainably minded safari, a restorative wellness retreat, a cultural city break, or a complex, multi‑stop itinerary designed around your family, your hobbies or a special celebration. Every recommendation is considered through three key lenses: the quality of your experience, the wellbeing of you and your travelling companions, and the wider impact on local communities and the environment.Sustainability is not a buzzword for me, it is a guiding principle. Wherever possible, I seek out partners who respect their people and their places, who protect wildlife, celebrate local culture and minimise their footprint. I will talk you through options that might reduce your environmental impact or support community-led initiatives, without compromising on comfort, style or enjoyment. Together, we can make more conscious choices that still feel indulgent and rewarding.Your wellbeing is always at the centre of my planning. For some clients, that means building in time to slow down, breathe and reconnect; for others, it might mean carefully managing accessibility needs, dietary requirements or travelling with children and older relatives. I pay attention to the small details that make a big difference: the right flight times, the perfect room type, a quieter corner of the resort, or a trusted local guide who understands exactly what you want from each day.Most importantly, you are never on your own. I am your single, dedicated point of contact, here whenever you need me. If a question pops into your head in the evening, if you need to tweak plans, or if something unexpected happens while you are away, you can reach out to me directly and I will be there to help. That peace of mind is at the heart of what I offer.Planning a trip should feel exciting, not overwhelming. I take the time to explore ideas with you, to suggest possibilities you may not have considered and to refine your plans until they feel exactly right. Then I manage all the arrangements, from flights and hotels to transfers, excursions and those thoughtful little extras that make your journey feel special and uniquely yours.If you are ready to travel in a way that feels more personal, more considered and more enriching, I would love to help you design your next adventure. Contact me to start a conversation about where you would like to go and how you would like to feel while you are there. Together, we will create a journey that is kind to the planet, good for the soul and unforgettable for you. -

+4401382916721Hi there, I'm Anthony and I am based in the sunny city of Dundee in the east of Scotland. I have enjoyed travelling since the age of 7 when I first went to Switzerland with my family. I then was caught by the cruise bug a year later when I stepped on my first cruise ship and ever since I can't stop cruising. Cruising has been a huge passion of mine and have been lucky to have sailed on 54 cruises - so I like to think I have my sea legs. I have gained my Cruise Industry Management degree from Southampton Solent University in 2015 and have since worked in the cruise industry with Carnival UK, Celebrity Cruises and a range of other travel agencies too. I have travelled extensively and along with cruising my favourite destinations would have to be Japan, the US, Egypt and Europe. So much choice, culture and history and all fascinating and inspiring too. The say travel is one of the best ways to educate yourself - that is certainly something I very much agree with. Cruising is my passion and I believe that everyone should at least try cruising once - seeing new destinations each day, only have to unpack once and enjoy a wide range of facilities and activities in a safe environment whilst sailing the seven seas - that sounds idyllic. Recently joining Travel Counsellors allows me to give the personal touch when it comes to preparing your next holiday. I believe in excellent customer service and by adding that personal touch, it allows for a greater connection and trust. Booking with myself means your money is 100% financially protected - either through ATOL or by the Travel Counsellors Trust. So whether it's a short break away or a world cruise, why not drop me an email or give me a call and let me arrange your next holiday. -

+4401143240148Thank you visiting my webpage. Just a little insight into my Travel Journey.... Packing our suitcases, stepping off the plane and sipping a cocktail at the beach or pool is my idea of heaven! It all began as a child (not the sipping cocktails!) when I first visited Florida and the ‘Magic’ of Disney grabbed a hold of me. It gave me my first cherished holiday memories and I have been fortunate to have collected many more since my childhood. We all love a holiday but over the years it has also become a passion of mine to find the best deals out there for myself and customers . This has resulted in trips to some fabulous countries and allowed us to stay in beautiful hotels, villas and apartments all around the world. My travels have included trips to Spain, Balearic Islands, Portugal, Greece, Turkey, Tunisia, Florida, Las Vegas, Mexico, Dubai, Singapore, Barbados, Antigua, Australia and New Zealand. I have probably forgot some along the way! I understand how important our holidays are to us and would love the opportunity to help you create lasting memories for you and your loved ones. I love nothing more than making clients happy, seeing their holiday pictures and hearing all about the amazing time they have, its the reason I came into Travel. A personal service is very important to me and I love to build relationships with customers along the way. This is the best way to give customers that dream holiday. This is truly a passion of mine and it would be a pleasure to help you find that perfect holiday for you. -

+4407540349902Hello, 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. -

I am available to you should anything occur while you’re away and our Duty Office are available to you 24 hours a day. By booking your holidays with me you will have 100% no ifs no buts financial protection. In addition, I will make it all super easy for you. With the fantastic myTC app (or myTC.com) you will be able to access your quotes, bookings, travel documents and be able to make payments securely at the touch of a button.I love travelling and exploring other countries and my most memorable holiday to date was a multi-centre holiday to Cuba staying in Havana, Trinidad and Varadero. I loved experiencing the culture in Havana and Trinidad followed by relaxation in Varadero with a cheeky trip out to the Beatles Bar. Since having children, my husband and I have been less adventurous and have stayed much closer to home with holidays to Crete, Spain, Croatia, Montenegro, Tenerife and around the UK with a real focus on child-friendly holidays. As great lovers of theme parks and with our youngest now being three, we plan to start taking the children to theme parks outside of the UK very soon.I understand that everyone’s needs are very different when it comes to travel and holidays. I will listen to you and ensure that I find you exactly what you’re looking for and maybe even more…I look forward to hearing from you.Tamara -

+4402035827870Welcome and thank you for visiting my webpage.I became a Travel Counsellor after a long and distinguished career at two of the UK's leading tour operators and wanting to re-introduce the values of what a tour operator/travel agent should be offering you. Booking a holiday or a business trip is more than a simple retail transaction. It is more important than that to you and it is more important than that to me. It is something that is personal and should be handled with the care and attention it deserves.Being a Travel Counsellor means that we can offer you what you require – it isn’t limited to one supplier or one product, it is a means to be independent and offer you what you want, be that a speedy process, an in-depth discussion about a destination, a hotel or a mode of transport, the most luxury or the best value. Each requirement is different but we are experienced in understanding travel. More often than not you will want to discuss and plan your holidays and business trips over the phone/videocall although I am happy to meet in person too.My own personal travel experience spans approximately ninety countries from the incredibly exotic Maldives and Mauritius (including my own wedding) to the more adventurous India, Sri Lanka, Vietnam, Guatemala and Japan, to the business hubs of New York, Hong Kong and Singapore. So, whether you are looking for a once-in-a-lifetime trip to Australia and New Zealand, your annual winter holiday to the Caribbean, a family holiday to USA or a romantic weekend in Paris there are a multitude of holidays that can be arranged to suit you for your next adventure. As you can probably tell I am passionate about most places I have travelled to (and places still on the to do travel list) but do give me a call and we can even discuss my other favourites that I haven't even mentioned here. I also enjoy documenting my travels in the journals that you can read below along with trying to improve my photography which you can see within them.With all Travel Counsellors, we pride ourselves on the service we provide and the value this brings to our customers. We are all independent, meaning we can provide you with the holiday you require and we can design it to suit your needs and desires. All types of holidays can be catered for from cruises to adventure tours to tailormade holidays to business trips and private tours.It may be an itinerary that you find daunting to put together yourself, or you just want the reassurance of being able to contact someone at any time either before you go or while you are away or it may be that you like to have that feeling of being financially protected or someone to help with giving you good value and inspiration and ideas, we can do all this and more.I very much look forward to hearing from you and discussing your travel plans. -

Since then I've travelled to some of the world's most untouched places, collecting an encyclopedia of knowledge along the way. I've sailed to the remote Indonesian island of Flores to see Komodo dragons and swam in the incredible Kuang Si Falls of Luang Prabang. I've sipped the finest wines in South Africa's Delaire Graff Estate and shopped for spices in India's colourful markets.It’s these life-enriching moments that I love to create for my clients. Being fully independent means it's less about the corporate bottom-line and more about the client experience. Before you book, I spend time getting to really know you - the things you love and anything you loathe. Prefer a window seat on your flight? No problem. Keen to steer clear of crowds? Noted. I'll build a relationship with you that can be likened to a trusted friend, with the back-up of full ATOL financial protection should something go wrong. When it comes to the type of travel I organise, tailormade trips, luxury long-haul, honeymoons and family-friendly holidays are my expertise. For anything else, my network of 2,000+ Travel Counsellors are on hand to help me find the perfect holiday to suit your needs.If this sounds like the type of service you're looking for, I'd love to chat.

I cannot wait to create amazing holidays and bespoke itineraries to turn your travel dreams into realityMy passion for travel started at a young age, when I went on a swimming club exchange to Orlando, Florida aged 11. I realised there was a whole world out there waiting to be explored. As a student, I then spent two summers working and travelling across Canada and spent a month backpacking on the Amtrak in the USA. At this point I was well and truly hooked and knew I wanted to have a career in the travel industry. Prior to becoming a Travel Counsellor I worked for over 20 years with an award winning high street travel agent. During this time, I gained a wealth of knowledge and experience so I know what it takes to make a fantastic holiday. From different airlines, routes and stopovers, to luxury accommodation and tours, I can advise with ease. I have a high repeat client base and pride myself in offering the personal touch and attention to detail. I very much value these relationships and hope to develop many more in the future. I have also been lucky enough to experience some amazing places. From trekking to Annapurna base camp in Nepal, diving with seals in the Galapagos, watching the sunrise over Malaysia from the top of Mount Kinabalu in Borneo, to driving through the Namibian dessert in a 4x4 on my honeymoon. No matter what you are looking for I can organise anything from a short European city break, a surprise visit to see Santa in Lapland, a Cruise in the Caribbean, a motorhome holiday in the USA, a multi-centre Australia and New Zealand itinerary or just a fly and flop beach break in Mauritius. I will get to know you and your requirements and make the experience a happy and enjoyable one. As your own personal Travel Counsellor, I can be totally flexible and available whenever suits you. If evenings work better – then give me a call. Being independent means I can offer a great selection of products, a great price as well as full financial protection and back-up including the Travel Counsellors Financial Trust.

+4401462548008Hi! I'm Carol Robinson, your local Travel Counsellor based in Stotfold on the Hertfordshire/Bedfordshire border.I have been a professional travel consultant for over 30 years working locally and gaining a wealth of experience in the booking of all types of holiday and business travel, all over the world. Having travelled extensively to many parts of the world, I can also provide first hand advice on many popular destinations.As I have a family which includes two teenagers, I understand the needs of parents when looking for that family holiday. I enjoy putting together the perfect holiday arrangements for people -especially to Florida where my children would choose to visit every year given the opportunity. Tailor-made travel arrangements to America, Canada, Australia and South Africa have proven very popular with my customers, sometimes combining visits to friends and family with some sightseeing.I also book business travel and especially like dealing with the smaller companies who need help getting the most from their travel budget. Many of my customers are homeworkers like myself, and I have had much pleasure in seeing their businesses grow during the years that I have been dealing with them. -

+4401789868270If 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 -
