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! Give me a call so we can discuss your plans!

Whatever your holiday needs I'm here to help you, so simply give me a call or send me an email with your contact details on and I can get things started for you:

Over the last 4 years my travel requirements have changed as I am now in a wheelchair and have a carer, my sister also has mobility issues and uses a cane. Karren researches where we can have an accessible enjoyable holiday and gives us load of suggestions.

Karren makes suggestions for destination you might never have considered. That alone is invaluable. However, Karren is also friendly, helpful and patient throughout the whole booking process. I have recommended her to many!

I can not thank you enough for your help in planning the perfect holiday, and including my daughter from the states, I particularly liked how you gave me options based on our interests and lifestyle. Thanks Karren, your help was very much needed in such a stressful and sensitive time for me.

Nothing is to much trouble for Karren. No matter how many options you ask her to look at she does it willingly

For excellent advice and service, Karren is amazing! She took the trouble to really understand the brief - who we are, what we like to do, and why we want to travel to the Maldives.

Just to say thank you for arranging our trip to Sicily in October in a very business like and friendly manner.
We appreciate this trip took a lot of time and arranging, as it was not quite straight forward, our trips never seem to be!

Found Karen after a long search as my previous Travel Agent had moved on. Karren is very specific with her questions and is exceptionally knowledgeable with holiday destinations that were spot on! She does not stop searching until you are happy. After major heath problems I was reluctant to travel again, but with Karren's insurance suggestions I feel excited to get back to international travel!

Karren really listened to what I was looking for. She came up with some excellent suggestions, asked for my thoughts and was happy to adjust and tweak until I was completely happy. I have never had a travel agent like this! My dream break came in under budget too. I am delighted and cannot recommend highly enough.

Karren arranged our trip quickly and efficiently, answering any questions we had and making the whole process a pleasure. The thank you card with a personal message in it was a lovely touch, especially after a difficult year. We will definitely be booking more holidays with her.

This is our first time using a private travel agent such as Karren and we have both agreed that we will use Karren for all of our future holidays! The whole service was such a breeze and Karren was so quick at responding (even when she was out of the country). We were expecting to pay a premium for Karren’s services but actually the prices she had quoted were the cheapest we had seen. We can’t wait to use her again.

She asked if we wanted something different “a curve ball” this was one of the best family holiday we have had. This was something that we would have never thought of or ever crossed our minds, but an amazing holiday. Thanks Karren

Karren is amazing, just tell her what you are looking for and as if by magic she produces a selection for you to choose from. The only difficulty about booking a holiday with her is trying to chose one of the amazing options she gives you.
