A bit about me (and how I work)

Hi, I’m Muriel and I plan holidays for people who don’t have the time (or patience) to do it all themselves.

I’m naturally a details person. I like getting stuck into the research, whether that’s mapping out a multi-stop adventure or finding the perfect hotel where you’ll just want to spend the whole afternoon by the pool.

I love a mix of both when I travel — a bit of exploring, a bit of switching off with a book — and that’s usually how I help my clients plan their trips too.

No two people want the same thing from a holiday, so I take the time to understand what matters to you. Then I get to work behind the scenes, pulling everything together so it all just works.

You get all the excitement of the trip, without the stress of planning it all and dealing with any hiccups that might crop up along the way.

If you’ve got a trip in mind, feel free to get in touch — I’m always happy to have a chat.

We recommend Muriel Bauduin to everyone! She’s very knowledgeable and takes time to find exactly what we want

S Campbell-Orde

Somerset

I have asked Muriel to help me on a number of occasions, find the right break within my limited time availability! She’s fabulous. I trust her 100%. I know she will put the right type of active / touring holiday together. Hassle free :) she arranges everything. I leave it all in her very capable hands. I would highly recommend her

K Howard

Taunton

I unfortunately had to travel to Greece in an emergency last month, as my mum had been involved in an accident and needed me. The last thing I needed to worry about was sorting all the travel arrangements and insurance etc, on top of everything else…but I didn’t need to worry! One call to Muriel and I was booked, insured and with various adjustments made to make the whole experience less stressful. This gave me the much needed time and space to concentrate on my mum, who, thankfully is now home and on the mend. Words can’t even explain how grateful I am to her, nothing is too much trouble and she even gave my mum and dad support and advice on their travel situation with cancellations etc. I would recommend Muriel to anyone in a heartbeat. Thank you so much Muriel!

Karen Gomm

Brackley

A fantastic service, Muriel spent the time getting a good understanding of what I wanted within the trip and gave suggestions on what to include and even alternative thoughts that I hadn't considered. I felt I was speaking with someone who had the knowledge to book a holiday of a lifetime with and when Muriel sent over the itinerary I couldn't have been happier.

Sarah Bourne

Northampton

Muriel is very helpful and informative when booking holidays…. We have used her a number of times now and it’s lovely to have a personal service.

Michelle Chappell

Taunton

Muriel could not have been more patient! We asked her to re quote several times for different dates and she calmly did so. We always book our big holidays with her as she delivers every time!

Tracey Bodoano

Surrey

Muriel's always helpful and willing to look into the many requests that i usually have. And she always comes up with ideas on where's good to go and the best way to get there.

M Jenkins

London

It made booking a holiday so incredibly simple and stress-free and avoided hours of having to coordinate travel arrangements etc. Very very pleased with the experience, Muriel was brilliant.

H Pepper

Brackley

Muriel booked me a last minute ski holiday. Accommodation, flights and insurance sorted in only 5 days before departure. I wouldn't have had time to sort this whilst working. Brilliant service and tickets hand delivered, too. She also made contacted the chalet hosts so I could pre order skis and ski pass.

S Rackley

We’ve already recommended Muriel to many people. She’s a pleasure to deal with & we know everything will be planned accurately and fully!

B Davis

Solihull

I already have recommended you! Thank you very much.

Muriel was extremely patient as our plans kept changing on an hourly basis depending on logistic getting around Cape Cod. However, she managed to find us what we wanted with it being on budget, too. Brilliant.

S Rackley

J Chant

Muriel came recommended to us, very helpful especially as I’ve never organised a long haul flight for a teenager travelling alone before and as a parent you want to make sure it’s all runs as smoothly as possible. Thoroughly recommend. Thank you.

Muriel did a great job of tailoring our itinerary to exactly what we wanted. Not only did she do such meticulous preparation, she was there to answer any questions whilst we were away too and we had a lovely welcome home! Nothing was too much trouble and it made for a very stress-free holiday. Thank you Muriel.

Anna Maunder

Juliette Gutierrez-Bailey

Sofia Bounou

Taunton

I had tried to organise our holiday. 10 people to Italy, flying from Bristol to Verona, staying at the hotel we wanted. I failed miserably. Muriel sorted it out in a matter of hours/minutes. Well done her, we all say. As the head of the family, I am very happy that we ended up with the holiday we actually wanted. Bravo!!!!!!!!.

P Whatley

Taunton

I am absolutely delighted with the travel service I received from Muriel Bauduin and recommend her most highly. We had the perfect trip to Paris thanks to Muriel's meticulous and personal attention to detail. Nothing was too much trouble. Muriel's service went above and beyond any travel consultancy I have used before. She went out of her way to ensure the location of our hotel was in close proximity to my daughter's university accommodation, and even researched shops in the locality where we could buy her household items. When we had to make a change to our travel plans, Muriel managed it positively and efficiently. She made sure our gluten free dietary requirements were met by the hotel and, from our past experience, that is not always easy! I felt 100% reassured that everything was organised to the highest standard and will definitely be using Muriel again for all our future travel plans. Thank you, Muriel, our trip was truly perfect thanks to you.

Rachel Lawson

Wellington

Muriel was fantastic! She listened to everything we wanted and found us a fabulous honeymoon. We are looking forward to it! Thank you, Muriel!
