It's Nice To Meet You

Well hello there! Welcome to my world of bespoke and unique travel planning, individually tailored just for you.

I am Kate and it’s nice to meet you.

I know the importance of a wonderful memorable holiday with friends, family or a loved one but I also understand just how much time and effort goes into creating such an experience. You want it to be just perfect for everyone and you also want to make sure that you have thought of everything.

Using me as your personal travel consultant will make the world of difference to bringing your holiday dreams to life. I offer a fully consultative approach, I will listen to you and ask lots of questions so that I can glean as much information about you and your travel companions as possible. If I can understand you, I can understand what you want from your holiday.

I have a wealth of knowledge and expertise at my fingertips as well as the latest technology. These things combined give me access to all things holiday and adventure, enabling me to personalise an authentic itinerary suiting your specific hopes, dreams, needs and wants. No matter how diverse your requirements are, allow me to restore some calm to your holiday planning kerfuffle and together we can create some amazing experiences – perfect!

I promise to care, to be dedicated to your needs and to put this at the heart of everything I do for you. I will go the extra mile to make sure your holiday is special, because you deserve it!

As well as my dedicated personal service, I’m also proud to offer:

• A time convenient to you to discuss your plans and if you’re local to me, this can be in person. Alternatively, we can chat over a video call or a good old fashioned phone call if you prefer.
• A payment protection that is the best in the industry. No ifs, no buts, 100% of your money is protected when you book with me.
• Support 24/7. My care and personal service won’t stop once you have booked, you will receive 24 hour, 7 day a week care in resort, should you need it, right up until you return home.


A little bit about me
I live in South Lincolnshire close to Stamford with my husband and two children. Travel has long been my passion and as a family we love to see the world together. Most recently we have island hopped in Greece, enjoyed the delights of Croatia and explored the beautiful cities of Budapest, Seville, Florence and Dubrovnik. We also enjoy weekends away or camping breaks in the UK.

Over the years I have been lucky enough to travel extensively and have I visited the Caribbean many times, Sri Lanka, Thailand, New York, Miami and the Keys, Bali, Singapore, Monte Carlo as well as European cities, popular holiday destinations and Disneyland Paris.

So if you’re ready, let’s prepare to embark on a journey and navigate those dream destinations together.

I look forward to speaking with you and getting to know you.

Stress-free travel, expertly handled - thanks to Kate Willimer We’ve always arranged our own travel over the years, but for a milestone birthday this year, we decided to enlist the help of Kate Willimer, and we’re so glad we did. The service was nothing short of exceptional. From our very first conversation, Kate made the entire process seamless. She listened carefully to our requirements, offered thoughtful options, and handled every detail of the booking with professionalism and care. What truly set Kate apart was her attentiveness throughout the journey. She kept us informed of any changes, ensured our transfers ran smoothly, checked in to confirm we’d arrived safely at the hotel, and even followed up to make sure we got home without a hitch. For complete peace of mind and expert planning, I’ll absolutely be using Kate’s services again. She took all the stress out of travel and made the experience truly special.

We would hughly recommend Kate Willimer from Travel Counsellors. We have used her for our last two holidays; the first to Singapore and Thailand and this year, Malaysia and Dubai. Kate has been fantastic at interpreting our ideas and requirements - providing us with lots of quotes which she will frequently adjust for us based on our requests. She is very patient and always makes sure the holiday is in line with our budget. She gets to know us well and also makes suggestions that we wouldn't have thought of. Kate organised every detail of our holiday, including transfers to and from airports and hotels, which are extremely efficient. She also goes above and beyond, leaving little messages at each hotel and arranging upgrades and treats for our wedding anniversary. We also love the Travel Counsellors app, which shows every detail of the itinerary and even notifies us of any flight changes. Kate checks in regularly to ensure that the holiday runs smoothly. We have been reccommending Kate to our friends and will be arranging all of our future holidays with her! Thank you Kate.

Apersonal touch managing our entire holiday experience Kate added a personal touch to everything she did for us. With a very vague list of wants/needs Kate was able to short list options from which we eventually chose. Always happy to answer any questions we had Kate would thoroughly research options and provide us with a list of pros/cons to help us decide. Our whole itinerary was prepared and presented to us without us chasing or having to think about it. We weee checked in and Kate provided our relevant paperwork including boarding passes and handwritten baggage labels in a lovely, personalised, wallet. Kate checked in with us during the holiday to ensure we had arrived and tracked our homeward journey. Our first family holiday abroad was a great, hassle free success thanks to Kate!

We cannot say enough about Kate Willimer, she helped us plan our latest adventure - this time to New Zealand and Singapore. Nothing was too much trouble, every last detail was taken care of, even mid way through our 5 week holiday when one of our flights was cancelled, Kate emailed us to let us know and rearranged our pick up from the airport. We explained to Kate exactly what we wanted and she figured out a way for us to do it. I would not hesitate to use her again for our next adventure. Thanks so much.

Kate was brilliant start to finish. We asked for a quote for a Disneyland trip with the kids and she provided a quick quote with extras and personalised touches that she recommended to make the most of our stay (which we went for and loved) before our trip she gave us every bit of information and detail we needed, We even got a message from her with our room number before we even got there. To top it off the kids got a little pressie to take with them before we went, in the post. Could not recommend enough! Date of experience - April 13th 2025

Kate! Thank you thank you thank you. We've had the absolute best time away! The place itself is so clean, so accommodating and so friendly. Every single person we came across was so attentive to us and our daughter was treated like royalty. Both hotels were incredible for their own reasons, both absolutely perfect for us and what we wanted. The whole process was so so smooth (except travelling with a toddler who is tired) but it was as easy as it could be. Honestly can't thank you enough from start to finish of this whole process it's been everything we ever wanted and more. Can't wait to book our future holidays through you! Thank you so much!!

New to cruise? So was I - Here's what I learned on my first sailing

09 May 2025

Until recently I was firmly in the ‘cruising isn’t for me’ camp. I pictured ships as floating resorts packed to the rafters with people, rigid dining times, fancy pants dress codes and not enough freedom – being ‘stuck’ on a ship with nowhere to go. I just wasn’t sure it was my kind of holiday. That was before I sailed on Norwegian Aqua in March. I wasn’t with my family, I spent three nights with

Discover the Magic of River Cruising with AmaWaterways

I was recently lucky enough to embark on a River Cruise with AmaWaterways, alongside some of my fellow Travel Counsellors. And let me tell you—it was a game changer! If you've never considered a river cruise before, now is the time. It’s one of the most relaxing, immersive, and hassle-free ways to explore multiple destinations in style.

A Magical Family Getaway – Discovering Malta in October

18 December 2024

Malta in October is a travellers dream. With mild temperatures around 24 degrees it’s the perfect time for a family holiday. In fact Malta enjoys an average of 300+ sunny days a year, making it one of the sunniest countries in Europe. With travel time being just over 3 hours from London it’s perfect for a 7 night break or maybe even a cheeky long weekend when perhaps the annual leave bucket is run

Me, my husband and our 2 kids (14 & 11) arrived in New York on a Saturday morning in early February after a Virgin flight with a super crew on board. We travelled from Peterborough on the Thameslink to Heathrow via Farringdon Street which was seamless. We stayed overnight at the Hilton Garden Inn at T3 so we could get to the airport bright and early ready for our 9am flight. Excitement levels we

Greek Island Hopping (with kids...)

20 November 2023

What?? I hear you shout! Well, for full transparency we hopped from one island (Santorini) to another (Naxos) and our kids are 13 and 10 so all in all it was a pretty fuss free experience. Both Santorini and Naxos are part of the Cyclades group of islands which are situated southeast of mainland Greece and north of Crete in the beautiful clear waters of the Aegean sea.
