Hi, I’m Sally, your independent Travel Agent based in Bradford on Avon, Wiltshire, where I live with my husband and two children.
Travelling has always been a huge part of my life and I have been lucky enough to travel extensively all over the world to many beautiful places including, but not limited to, Europe, the Caribbean, Florida, California, Dubai, the Maldives, Thailand, Australia, Bali, Mexico as well as spending a year working on a cruise ship circumnavigating the globe.
I can save you time, hassle and stress by doing all the hard work and research and can offer you independent travel advice. I have access to a full range of packages, flights, accommodation and extras such as car hire and tickets for attractions, or I can tailor make a bespoke trip to your exact and individual requirements. Furthermore, having previously worked in the healthcare industry I can also offer professional advice and support for those travelling with accessible needs as well as being knowledgeable about travelling with children.
I am passionate about personal service and attention to detail and will take into account your specifications and budget to deliver your dream trip. Be it a weekend break, a business flight, your wedding/honeymoon, a cruise, a family/group skiing trip or that holiday of a lifetime.
For your total peace of mind everything booked through Travel Counsellors is completely financially protected.
No enquiry is too big or small and I will deal with each request as if I was organising my own trip. I would be delighted to discuss your requirements at a time that suits you, including evenings and weekends, either over the phone, email or in person so please do not hesitate to get in touch.
And in the words of Hans Christian Andersen; “To travel is to live!”

Sally listened, researched and delivered several options in record time. She was equally quick in delivering our travel documents, all done with warmth and genuine interest in satisfying her customers. Our agreed choice - Malta - has proved to be a great success. Our thanks to Sally for taking the stress out of the complexities of holiday bookings. She is a credit to your organisation.

Sally is fantastic! She really cares about making sure you get the best holiday she can for you and goes the extra mile to help with every need. Her experience means she can offer expert advice . She really works hard to create the perfect holiday for her customer .

I would never consider choosing anyone else to book my holidays. Sally is not only incredibly knowledgeable and considers every small detail, but she is such a lovely, warm, friendly person with whom to discuss holidays. She makes sure you get the holiday experience, with add ons, that you would really like. Sally really does go the extra mile and takes into consideration my age and therefore do I really want a flight too early in the morning, or will my dodgy knee cope with a zip wire trip over the jungle. I think she is fantastic and is just brilliant at her job.

Sally was great at engaging with my wife and I, then coming up with an itinerary that ticked everything we'd asked for, in such a reasonable budget. I'll definitely be recommending her to others.

In the words of Tina Turner, Sally is "simply the best" person you could possibly want helping you on your travel plans. She cares so much about getting it right for you whether you are travelling on holiday with your family or for work. She can quickly pull together the best options to look at and take all the hassle away.

I feel that Sally provided me with a really personal, tailored service for the same price that I would have paid to a large high street company. Nothing felt like too much trouble and Sally's knowledge base and contacts meant that I could quickly and easily adapt my plans according to the information she gave me. Sally really took all the hassle out of booking our trip and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone.

We genuinely couldn’t have wished for a better travel agent than Sally. She is an expert, knows everything you need and focuses in on what (from her vast experience) would be best for you and your trip, she was incredibly responsive, proactive and honest in her organisation. You are certainly in the safest of hands with Sally whilst she also makes you feel as though you are the most important of her clients. Roll on our honeymoon.
