01603856590Congratulations, you have found me! I would love to show you just how passionate I am about your holidays.Yes, I love to travel. Yes, I have been around the world and back. Yes, I have decades of experience and knowledge, and I promise I will use all of this, along with my time and expert research, to create perfectly bespoke holidays that are totally tailored to your needs and desires. That is why I am a Travel Counsellor.I have always loved a challenge. Before children, I never chose a straightforward package holiday. I was forever looking for somewhere a little different, venturing off the beaten track, travelling by various modes of transport and soaking up the buzz of city breaks and cosmopolitan life.Now, with two teenagers, our holidays have simply evolved into a different kind of adventure. Instead of nap times and paddling pools, we are making memories on thrilling water slides, tackling theme parks together, trying new activities, and hunting down the best food spots and sunset viewpoints. I understand first-hand how family travel changes as children grow: from kids clubs and mini discos to older teens who want a bit more independence, Wi-Fi, space and experiences they will remember long after the selfies fade.That is why I am so passionate about designing holidays that work for your family at your stage of life: whether that is a special all-inclusive where everyone can relax, a multi-centre adventure, a once-in-a-lifetime trip further afield, or a city break carefully balanced between culture, fun and downtime.Just to name-drop a few destinations I have experienced in various ways: Australia and New Zealand, the Far East including Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore and Laos, the Indian Ocean including the Seychelles, India, Sri Lanka and the Maldives, the Middle East, the Americas including Brazil, Mexico, various Caribbean islands, the USA including Hawaii and Alaska, and Canada. And of course, Europe is right on our doorstep, perfect for a quick weekend away, a midweek escape or a classic sunshine break.Back to you: please do get in touch by filling in the form below so I can contact you, or simply pick up the phone and give me a call. I would love to hear from you and help turn your holiday ideas into reality. Whatever is on your bucket list, we can start ticking it off together. You will never be alone throughout your holiday: you can contact us 24 hours a day, every day of the year. I am here for you. -

01844 660010If you fell in love with the beauty of Brazil and the stunning scenery of South America while watching the BBC’s Race Across The World…then I could be the perfect Travel Counsellor for you! I grew up to the rhythm of the Samba beat, have been on the best beaches in Rio like The Girl From Ipanema, and have actually sipped cocktails on the roof terrace of The Hotel Unique in São Paulo where the TV celebrity contestants reached one of their destinations. I may come from Brazil, but South America is my passion. Only last year I planned my own solo two-week trip to the wonders of Machu Picchu in Peru. Now, I would love to organise an amazing adventure for you…and unlike the TV stars, I promise not to send you on 21-hour overnight coach trips! Travel and exploration have been in my blood since I left my home and came to the bright lights of London nearly 30 years ago. These days I am happy living in the rolling Chiltern Hills, high above High Wycombe in Bucks, with my three children. But if I am a country girl at heart, I also have a penchant for City breaks across Europe, or once in a lifetime family trips off the beaten track, like sleeping on a river boat in Vietnam. My idea of travel is to indulge in all the senses. Local food and cookery courses; fashion shows, shopping and spas, and of course the history and culture of the people we meet along the way. Studying maps, scanning brochures, and scrolling through endless hotel apps only gets you so far. Having a Travel Counsellor expert on hand, with hot tips on where’s good to go and – just as importantly – where to avoid, can make all the difference. My business background is long and varied, from retail to restaurants, to teaching and healthcare. I have been my own boss and worked in a team, but when I look back the common thread has been dealing with people and delivering the best service, tailor-made to each individual requirement. -

The magic happens when someone helps shape it.I am Sue Katuszonek and I help people plan thoughtful, well organised holidays that feel special from the very start.With more than 30 years of experience in travel, tourism and hospitality, I offer a personal travel planning service for busy people who want more than just a standard booking.MY AIM IS SIMPLE : TRAVEL SHOULD FEEL PROPERLY PLANNED, NOT JUST BOOKED.I specialise in cruises, honeymoons, Disney holidays, ski trips and tailor made multi‑destination travel for clients looking for something memorable and carefully put together.Originally from Tickhill in Doncaster and now splitting my time between the UK and Austria, travel has shaped both my career and everyday life for many years. Alongside planning holidays for clients, I still occasionally work on the ground in resort in Austria, supporting guests and seeing first hand the real side of travel: airport arrivals, transfers, excursions, accessibility needs and the small details that can make or break a holiday experience.That real world experience allows me to bring a practical, personal and knowledgeable approach to every trip I plan, from ski holidays in Austria to tailor made itineraries in destinations such as Japan and the United States, where the details and routing really matter.Over the years, I have seen just how reassuring it is for clients to have somebody experienced guiding them through the process and looking after everything properly from start to finish. My goal is always to make travel feel exciting, seamless and genuinely well looked after.And the best part: there is no extra charge for my planning service or support, just the reassurance of having somebody experienced in your corner throughout the process.If you are looking for personal service, honest advice and somebody who genuinely cares about getting your trip right, I would be delighted to help.And of course, you do not have to just take my word for it: you can read my client testimonials below. -

0116 312 0030Hi, I’m Jo, your personal Travel Counsellor.I’m a complete self confessed travel fanatic, and for more than three decades I’ve been exploring the world: from backpacking through South East Asia and Fiji, immersing myself in the buzz of cities like Berlin, Budapest and Marrakesh, and soaking up sun and style in Australia and the USA. I’ve holidayed extensively across the continents, from the Caribbean to Iceland, from the Maldives to Ibiza, and The Greek Isles to Goa. It is safe to say I really do live and breathe travel.If I had to pick a favourite, it would be Thailand. The warmth of the locals (it is called the Land of Smiles for a reason) and the incredible food make it a destination I return to again and again. I am a huge foodie, so I know just how important it is to find those unforgettable flavours and authentic places to eat while you are away.I genuinely believe that going on holiday is good for the soul. Time away lets us reset, reconnect and create the kind of memories that last a lifetime.Why choose me?

On completion of my university degree I decided to set off on an adventure and explore the world solo, before moving to London to begin my professional journey in travel. Fast forward 10 years and I’ve built myself a successful and fulfilling career in the travel industry. I am so grateful for the opportunities this line of work has given me, and that my expertise has enhanced other people’s travel experiences; It is incredible that I’ve been able to form a profession from what I love doing most in the world. My career thus far has had numerous highlights, including earning my spot on tons of incentive trips all over the world, and winning multiple performance based awards. Having worked in various roles, including management, I have gained insight into the process, product and customer service aspects of the industry. I definitely attribute my success to my underlying passion for travel and learning, but also my love of talking to people and forming relationships - many of my customers feel like friends and being sent holidays snaps from their trips never fails to make me smile.I’ve personally travelled to 47 countries across 6 continents (just Antarctica to get to!) and have specialised in Asia, North & Latin America, the Middle East and Africa, but feel confident that I can tailor the perfect trip in any destination worldwide. I have experience in booking a wide variety of customers, from corporate clients to backpackers, honeymooners to family holidays, and city breaks to long awaited trips of a lifetime. Speaking of corporate clients, I have numerous business accounts within the Media space, assisting with travel for TV and production purposes. I have experience in dealing with VIP/high profile individuals/Influencers and organising large groups; projects so far include Searching for Mexico with Eva Longoria, TOWIE’s season in the Caribbean, and multiple docuseries.As a Travel Counsellor I can’t wait to assist you in all your travel needs (flights, transfers, accommodations, cruises, tours, car hire) whatever they may be. I can be available outside of working hours so as to fit in with your schedules, and am also always happy to meet in person and holiday plan over a coffee (on me) if you’d prefer this to phone/email. I am so excited to hear from yourselves, your families and friends, and am looking forward to creating itineraries that will surpass your expectations and keep our working relationship going for years to come. -

01422 893230Your holidays should always be amazing, not average or ok. I appreciate that most people just don’t have enough time spare in order to guarantee this by putting the work in themselves. As holidays are so precious they should always be perfect. I’m here to help ensure that this is a reality for you. My goal is to provide you the best customer service in delivering your perfect travel experience, whether that be a bespoke tailor-made escape or a package holiday in Europe: boutique hotels, Amazon adventures, 6* cruises, exclusive offers, close up wildlife encounters, or everything rolled into one! Travelling is a wonderful experience; I have toured cities, mountains and beaches across France, Spain and Italy, sampling food and wine along the way. We’ve been lucky enough to see elephants in South Africa, turtles in Tobago and Lightening McQueen at Disneyland Paris! Currently on my bucket list are visiting Polar bears in Canada, a luxury cruise, a snowy break in a castle in Scotland and another city break in Itay. If you’ve got any ideas to share with me, I’d love to chat! I have long been obsessed with discovering foodie finds, so I can usually recommend a restaurant to anyone who is planning a trip, wherever you may be going. After visiting New York about 20 times, I’ve got great recommendations for places to dine in the Midtown area from steaks to sushi! In Florence, I'd suggest that you take a cookery lesson, so you can recreate local dishes when you get home. In Madrid, there’s a buzzing tapas market which is amazing. There’s a fantastic place in Krakow which serves Michelin food at pub prices, my list of recommendations goes on. I love adding to it with my own experiences and suggestions from friends. Hopefully you won’t need to test me, but I do come into my own when problems arise. I’ve helped friends, family and customers to get out of some tricky situations all over the world! This includes helping my customers when trouble recently began in the Middle East, when a credit card didn’t work in Sydney, when mountain rescuers were needed in France, and when the nanny of one of my customer’s phoned in sick while she was skiing. I understand that travel is important, it could be the two weeks you’ve looked forward to all year, it’s the trip you deserve after a career at the grindstone, it’s your honeymoon, and it’s jumping into being an empty nester. Whatever your trip, it’s important to me to get it right. -

I’m Deborah and I live in South Northants close to Milton Keynes along with my husband Steve and son Sebastian.My interest in travel was sparked at the age of 12 by a school project about ancient Egypt. I was fascinated and promised myself that I would one day see this mysterious place for myself and that I would definitely have a career in travel. I have done both and have had the most amazing time working in the travel retail sector as a travel consultant and a store manager and I have won various awards both individually and as part of the teams I have been fortunate to work with over the years. Consequently I have had 40 years of holidays and work trips (all in the line of duty) and therefore have a wealth of knowledge of this wonderful world which I love to share with my customers.I have enjoyed everywhere I have visited but my favourite is Italy so much so that we have bought a little renovation project down in Puglia. Otherwise I have such special memories of family holidays to Disney, Lapland, beautiful beach breaks across most of Europe, exciting city breaks around the world, Caribbean treats, relaxing and indulgent cruises, and tailor made trips to Canada, the Far East, USA, Brazil, New Zealand and Australia. I look forward to hearing about your experiences and helping you plan your next adventure. I will work tirelessly to find the perfect holiday and look for ways to make it extra special.

01733 490060I help people plan holidays that feel right for the people taking them.That might be a once‑in‑a‑lifetime honeymoon, a big bucket‑list trip to Asia, a complicated multi‑centre, a safari with a soft beach finish, a cruise with the right route and cabin, or simply a family holiday that actually feels relaxing once you are there.I believe the small details make a much bigger difference than people realise: things like hotel location, flight times, resort layout, pacing, transfers, and choosing destinations that genuinely suit the type of trip you want. Two holidays can look very similar online but feel completely different in reality, and that is usually where experience matters most.As a mum of three, I also understand the reality of travelling as a family, particularly a larger family. Sometimes you want adventure and bucket‑list moments, sometimes you just want a holiday that feels easy and does not leave you needing another break when you get home.I work with couples, families, honeymooners and groups on everything from “proper” city breaks and European escapes to South‑East Asia and Japan, Indian Ocean islands, safaris, cruises and other tailor‑made long‑haul trips. My sweet spot is the kind of holiday that takes a bit more thought and joining‑up than a standard click‑and‑go package.My job is to take all the moving parts and turn them into a holiday that feels seamless from start to finish, and that actually feels like you.Most importantly, I want the planning process to feel personal, straightforward and exciting, not overwhelming. You do not have to have it all figured out before you come to me: you just need to know that you want it to feel special and “very you”, and I can help with the rest. -

The art is more than just booking a holiday - it’s creating something that fits you perfectly. That’s why I take the time to get to know you, your taste, your style, and the small details that matter most when you travel.Think of me as your personal travel companion - combining expertise with a personal touch, while quietly handling all the logistics so your journey flows seamlessly from start to finish.With a wealth of travel experience and a trusted global network of specialists in over 100 countries, I’ll help you uncover hidden gems and craft a trip that feels just right for you.From our first chat to your return home, every detail is taken care of - no more endless searching, scrolling, or second-guessing online results. Instead, you can simply relax and enjoy your journey, knowing it’s been thoughtfully planned around you, with care, insight, attention to detail, and a human touch.And the best part - my service comes at NO EXTRA COST. I’m paid by trusted suppliers based purely on what’s right for your individual trip, so your interests always come first.A lot of people enjoy planning their own holidays, and that’s fine when everything runs smoothly. But when plans change or something unexpected pops up, it can quickly become stressful - especially without package protection in place. Suddenly you’re juggling suppliers (often through their websites) and left to make tricky decisions that can end up costing more than expected.By contrast, when you book with me, you have expert guidance and support at every step. As my business is part of Travel Counsellors, you get full financial protection and 24/7 support - so wherever you are in the world, help is just a call or WhatsApp away.My promise is simple: genuine care, personal service, inspiration and support whenever you need it. At Travel Counsellors, we say ‘We go beyond' - and it’s no coincidence we've earned over 20,000 5-star Trustpilot reviews. It's the same level of dedication I bring to every client and every trip I plan. I also understand that life doesn’t always fit neatly into office hours, so I’m happy to chat in the evenings, at weekends, or whenever suits you best.As for my own journey - I’ve been fortunate to explore more than 60 countries (and counting) across six continents - from cycling the Sinai Desert to husky sledding in the Arctic, experiencing omotenashi in Japan, and learning to tango in the streets of Buenos Aires. Travel has shaped who I am, and every journey fuels my passion for helping others discover the world in their own way.So whether you already know where you’d like to go, have the spark of an idea, or simply want someone to take care of the details, I’d love to help you create a journey that’s truly yours.I look forward to chatting soon.Warm regards, -

01789 659139I’m Leanne, an Independent Travel Counsellor, and I create tailor made travel for people whose standards are non negotiable and who want their trips handled with real care and precision.I design meticulously planned journeys for individuals, families, businesses and specialist groups. Clients come to me for premium and luxury holidays that feel considered rather than generic, corporate travel that runs smoothly without fuss, and sport, fitness and event trips where timing, logistics and wellbeing must align.My own trips range from ultra luxury to down to earth adventures. I lived in Dubai for eight years and know the Middle East well. I have travelled by train through Singapore, Malaysia, Bangkok and Thailand on the Oriental Express, stayed on Sri Lanka’s Tea Trails, and visited Mauritius, the Maldives and Mexico. I have explored much of Italy (Amalfi Coast, Tuscany, Florence and Venice), driven through the Dordogne in France and enjoy everything from UK city breaks and country house hotels to glamping, lodges and luxury all inclusive at IKOS in Greece. That breadth means I can shape trips that feel like you, not like everyone else.I am a committed fitness enthusiast, so I understand what it takes to plan travel around training blocks, competition dates, recovery time and group logistics. I am also a busy mum of two, so I know exactly how hard it can be to find headspace to research, compare and book everything. My role is to bring ideas, give honest guidance and quietly handle the detail so you do not have to.Whether you are a Hyrox competitor who wants support with event travel, a busy parent who needs a relaxing family holiday that truly works for everyone, or an executive flying here, there and everywhere, I am here for you.As a business owner I am personally invested in every booking. As part of Travel Counsellors, your arrangements are fully financially protected, supported by our 5 star Trustpilot rating, a dedicated 24/7 Duty Office and the myTC app, which keeps your quotes, documents and itineraries in one secure place.If you are looking for travel that is genuinely bespoke, professionally managed and backed by real human support when it matters most, I would be delighted to help plan your next trip. -

At 21, I decided that the travel business was the one for me, and I have been lucky to be involved in it ever since. I developed a passion for both assisting my clients and when the chance arose, also my own personal travel. I still continue to be very passionate about travelling and seeing the world, and always enjoy visiting places new and old.I spent 15 years at my previous travel company, working hard to be successful, and over my career there I build up an excellent reputation as a very successful Travel Manager, initially focusing solely on leisure, but latterly also expanding to corporate. I am equally adept in both fields, and I get as much satisfaction finding a great holiday for clients, as I do taking a new client on and saving them £2k a month on their travel expenses. I have achieved success through recommendations, building relationships, expanding my customer base through networking and, when time permits, also handling new telephone enquires.In November 2018, I started a new path working from home as a Travel Counsellor. In this role, I will continue to offer the same great, personal service that I have always offered.

01273272775I have a 30 year career in the travel industry and a true passion to make sure my clients always have a wonderful and memorable experience. We are all different and how we enjoy our holidays is very different too. Some people love adventure and prefer to get off the beaten track but others like to know they can experience new countries and cultures safe in the knowledge everything is perfectly organised before they leave. Some holidays are for relaxing on a beach and others are adrenalin filled, of course many are a mix of the two and more. I tailor all holidays to the client to ensure it is right for them. Most holidays are good, its time away from the stresses of daily life and spending quality time with those we care about, but I think it is about making sure that holiday time is the very best it can be. Advancement in technology has encouraged us all to spend hours online looking at websites hoping to see the perfect option, but can this ever really compare to working with an expert who does this every day? I am lucky enough to have visited 75 countries and work in partnership with 1000’s of colleagues who have travelled extensively too, I offer real advice and experience.

I love holidays and get a real sense of satisfaction at providing exceptional trips for my customers. WHY USE ME? My customers return to me because I really care about both the customer and customer service. I’m very easy to talk to and discuss ideas with. I pride myself on going above and beyond with every booking, taking the service to the next level.

With the backing of Travel Counsellors, you are assured of a wider choice of holidays.

I am asked to book all sorts of holidays and trips, but I am building a reputation for bespoke travel. This goes above and beyond the usual holidays and involves searching out solutions to personally create the right itineraries, travel and accommodation for those wanting to do something a bit different. I love an adventure; over the years I have organised my own wildlife expeditions including seeing the “Big Five” in Kenya, South Africa and Botswana as well as Black Bears in the Canadian Rockies, Orangutans in Borneo and Pandas in China. Still to do are tigers in India and Black Gorillas in Rwanda.

I joined Travel Counsellors because I wanted to concentrate on offering my customers the highest possible levels of personal service and independent travel advice. I have many repeat clients who have booked with me for the past 40 years and have been extremely satisfied with my service and have referred me to their Family and Friends.Travel Counsellors is one of the largest independent travel agencies in the UK. As your own professional Travel Counsellor I can use our award winning technology and my personal expertise to tailor make exactly the right holiday to suit your needs. Rather than selling you a standard tour operator package, I can quickly search through hundreds of different flights, accommodation and transfer alternatives to find something that suits your needs exactly. Quite often this means I can build you a bespoke holiday at a cheaper price than the standard holiday package you might get elsewhere.Travel Counsellors recognises that not everyone is free to discuss their travel arrangements during the working week. My company’s award winning technology enables me to work from home and means you can contact me at times when most other travel agents are unavailable, including evenings and weekends.With my wealth of knowledge and the holidays and cruises I have been on over the years I am sure I will be able to assist you in booking your perfect holiday. Furthermore my business is based purely on providing my customers with the highest possible levels of personal service and I would be delighted to assist you with your holiday plans.

Having missed out on foreign travel as a child and taking my first trip to India at the age of 15, I think I've been making up for lost time ever since! Since starting my journey in high street travel at the age of 17 and working with luxury tailor made trips, private islands and villas, I have gained a wealth of knowledge over the years to help me curate your perfect travel experiences.

I can be available at a time to suit you, so for those little travel queries I am only a call away. Working with luxury villas has taken me across Europe, however, I do love to travel long haul and have been lucky enough to experience places like Bali, Thailand, Hong Kong, USA and South Africa, to name some highlights. A memorable adventure was a trip of a lifetime to Australia - a boat on Sydney harbour for New Year's Eve, surfing Bondi beach and exploring Fraser Island - now that will be a tough trip to beat! From the UK to Australia and everywhere between, no trip is too big or too small and I look forward to hearing from you. Life is about the journey... Where will your travels take you next? -

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 -

01483 651056My insatiable wanderlust first began back in 2004 as I stepped barefoot on the sugar white sands of Koh Samet in Thailand. If I close my eyes, I'm right back there in a flash. 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 have 2 children aged 9 & 7.I have worked in travel for 23 years, the majority of which I have specialised in corporate travel.

I’m particularly proud of an individual award for Outstanding Customer Service, something I always strive to achieve.I count myself lucky to have been able to travel extensively, the highlights of which are 3 years working in Japan and a 3-month sabbatical to South America. What I love about Travel Counsellors is the opportunity to offer flexible business hours to my clients, and be on call when they need me. The extensive range of airfares and hotel contracts gives me full confidence that I can offer the client whatever they need. Listening to clients is so important, and although I may ask a lot of questions about the nature of their travel, this is only to ensure I provide options that are relevant - I’m not just a personal search engine, I will always go out of my way to be able to offer quotes on all elements of travel, whether that be private transfers, airport assistance, hotel requests or how to book a dog on board.For the last 2 years I have won the Corporate Customer Feedback award, of which I am incredibly proud.Therefore, please feel free to contact me for further details, or even better trial our services. -

We’ve spent most of the last fifteen years in the Middle East, where my husband works, and have used both that region as well as our home in the UK as our starting and finishing point for international travel.I’ve been in the travel business for many years and previously ran my own travel website, helping clients to enjoy the best destinations available worldwide. I pride myself on my ability to communicate with people and helping them to share my enthusiasm for optimising their travel experience with the right choice of destination. Advice on how to do that cost-effectively and without loss of quality is a vital part of my service.One of my personal favourite destinations is the Caribbean. What a place! Sun, sea, sand, great attractions, both day and night, and lovely people. People who have honed to a fine art the ability to extend genuine friendliness and a welcoming way to tourists visiting their lovely tranquil countries and idyllic tropical islands.I love my work as a Travel Counsellor. The satisfaction that comes from being able to advise my clients about how to get the best from their holiday aspirations is obviously a great feeling. At the same time, however, I’m aware of the great responsibility which rests on my shoulders when seeking to ensure that disappointment isn’t an option. Most people only have a few weeks a year to get away from it all and they want to spend their hard-earned cash on the best leisure experience they can possibly get. The number of clients who have returned to me again and again has given me confidence that I must be doing something right!I’m also proud and pleased to announce that my daughter, Sophie, has now joined me in the business and is looking forward to helping me to help you even more efficiently.

020 4638 3027Hello, I'm Steve. Welcome to my page! I live in Bushey Heath, Hertfordshire with my wife Tanya and we have two fabulous ‘grown-up’ children. We all know first-hand how precious holiday time is – whether you're seeking adventure, relaxation, cultural immersion, or simply quality time with your loved ones.For me it all started in the early ‘70s in Benidorm and from that first taste of Spanish sunshine and chocolate milk I was hooked. That early spark has grown into a lifelong passion for exploring our incredible world.Although I work in this broad industry of travel, my special interests reflect the experiences of my life.From the bucket list experience of a Kenyan safari (honeymoon), through family cruises, Disney experiences and more recently cruising and holidaying kid-free I can bring my knowledge and couple it with my genuine curiosity in people and uncovering what they really want… …and this is the thing as we are all different and what suits one person/ family may not suit another.I believe that every holiday should be bespoke to some degree– shaped around your tastes, your dreams, and your budget. This is where I come in from discussing and exploring the initial spark of an idea to the moment you return home with a camera full of memories, I'll be there every step of the way. I'll take the time to really understand what you're looking for, handle all the details, and work tirelessly to ensure everything is just right. Whether you're dreaming of 2 weeks on a sun-lounger, a relaxing (or not-so relaxing) cruise, a European adventure, or turning a bucket list dream into reality – I'd love to help make it happen.With the backing of Travel Counsellors' award-winning network, I offer you complete financial protection, 24/7 support (myself and my colleagues...no chatbots) while you're away, and access to incredible travel options worldwide.Give me a call or drop me an email, and let's begin planning your next unforgettable journey.I’ll do all the heavy lifting for you…but I won’t carry your cases! -

01273 317 319Hi, 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 25 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… -
