It's Nice To Meet You
Thank you for visiting my page, it is nice to meet you ....
My name is Michelle and I would like to offer a warm welcome. I am based in Leighton Buzzard, Bedfordshire. I live with my husband, 3 children and dog, running my own personal business from home meaning I am available when it is suitable for you.
I have a wealth of knowledge gained from over 35 years’ experience in the travel industry working for Thomas Cook and Kuoni before I took the plunge almost 5 years ago to run my own travel business. My passion for travel has been with me since I completed a week's work experience in a travel agency whilst still at school where I realised that travel would be the career path for me! This passion has continued to grow and grow and I like nothing more than to share my knowledge and experiences with my customers having been fortunate to have been on some fantastic holidays and work trips.
I have travelled extensively and destinations include, The Maldives, Mauritius, Thailand, Kenya Safari, Barbados, Mexico, Egypt, Israel, Turkey, Greek Islands, Cyprus, Spain including all Balearic and Canary Islands, Tunisia, Portugal and New York. I have been to more cities than I care to mention and also been on a couple of cruises. My personal favourites have to be Mauritius, Barbados, Safari in the Masai Mara (Kenya), the Greek island of Crete and New York.
My aim is to offer you the best personalised one to one service, I take time to get to know you and understand your needs, offering honest and impartial advice. Being independent, and part of the Travel Counsellors brand means I have access to a whole range of reliable sources and suppliers to tailor your holiday arrangements. I specialise in Honeymoons and tailor made itineraries however whether you simply want to escape for a few days to recharge or set sail around the world, plan a romantic honeymoon, go on safari to Kenya or celebrate a special occasion in style, I can craft your perfect escape with my own expertise, I will even include my personal top tips to ensure you experience the best from your trip.
