Dear Elaine,

We want to thank you for all your good work in arranging for our travel to Venice this year. After your handling our trip to Bruges so well three years ago, we were anxious to have your help with this memorable trip. Once again everything was done so efficiently. We had no problems with transportation or accommodations. Your local tips were also very helpful. We highly recommend your services to any traveler. Thank you again.

Mr & Mrs Robin Mansfield, Indian Wells, CA USA

Elaine booked a cruise starting in Fremantle Australia & continuing to New Zealand & Sydney. She combined this with flights enabling us to visit Brisbane as well as travel back just after New Year. We were very pleased that she was able to accommodate all our requirements . Her service was most attentive & we highly recommend her.

Mr & Mrs David & Sheila Whiteman, Warwick

Elaine has looked after my family's holiday needs for many years now and time after time she comes up with great suggestions and recommendations.

Would thoroughly recommend her to anyone needing help or advice with travel arrangements, as I have done in the past.

Mr Phil Parsons, Evesham, Worcestershire

We have known Elaine for over 40 years and I (carol) worked with her in the tourism business in Kenya, where she already had travel in her bones, she is outstandingly efficient and caring with a wonderfully warm personality. Back in the UK we kept in close touch and I watched her knowledge and experience in the travel industry grow and grow - her love of personal travel has also served her vast knowledge of the world enormously. We are proud to say she has been our travel agent ever since - right up to the present year, when she has found us and our family a great holiday in Sharm-el-Sheik for Christmas!

Mr & Mrs Mike and Carol Cotton, Stamford, Lincs

I have been making use of Elaine's service since 2004 when she did all the planning and booking for a five-week trip to New Zealand and Australia. Her attention to detail is such that somehow she manages to arrange everything to meet some medical needs that my wife has. Another trip to New Zealand and Australia, more complex than the first, was handled with equal aplomb and the same high level on when I have bugged her on a minute matter of detail. I recommend her without hesitation.

Mr Stuart Kneller, Billericay

What can I say about Elaine, well she is an absolutely amazing travel agent and we only book our holidays with her, because quite simply we know that everything will be perfect and if there are any problems we would be able to contact her and she will sort it out. Her attention to detail and beyond is fantastic, she remembers all our personal quirks and tries to find hotels for us she thinks we will like and never minds constantly searching for us if they are not quite to our liking. When we went to Rhodes recently and there was a strike, virtually as soon as we found out at the resort we got a text from Elaine telling us when our re-scheduled flights would be. I just feel confident that everything will be OK when I book with Elaine.

Mrs JILL YOUNG, STRATFORD UPON AVON

First class service provided at all times.

Whether arranging local UK breaks to holidays in Australia , every

detail is always covered, giving an assurance that puts ones mind at

rest from the outset.

Elaine has also assisted in arranging holidays for our daughters

who have also been totally satisfied with the service provided.

Mr Melvyn Oakley, Redditch

Elaine was referred to me by a colleague several years ago and I, in turn, would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone else. She is genuinely interested in you and your plans and always goes the extra mile, getting back to you promptly, treating you courteously and keeping in touch regularly (without "stalking"!) ... all the simple stuff you should expect, but rarely get! It was my pleasure recently to introduce her to my son and his new bride to arrange their fabulous three week honeymoon in the States. They had an amazing time.

Mrs Jacqueline Brookes, Cheadle Hulme

Elaine organized my trip to Africa a few years ago. She did an outstanding job. She is very professional, helpful and courteous. Even though I live in the U.S. I elected to use Elaine and will gladly do so again.

Ms Aphrodite Radford, Tujunga, California, USA

Elaine is the tops! Excellent advice, always seems to get the best possible deal without any quality compromise, faultless service. We have recommended to friends near and far (Scotland) and all have said how pleased they have been

Mr & Mrs Chris & Maggie Evans, Evesham

Elaine booked a perfect family holiday fot us in Portugal which more than lived up to our expectations. We left the stress at the door and rested; played and 'familied' for two weeks.

Mrs Caroline Woodward, Shipston on Stour

Elaine has to be one of the most on the ball and supportive people I have ever known - and I had had lots of holidays and lots of stress from them but she makes life easy and takes the worry out of organising a holiday. If you choose her to sort your holiday you won't be disappointed!

Mrs LINDA BLAKEMORE, COVENTRY

Elaine helped us choose a special family holiday last Easter and she was brilliant. Elaine really listened to our needs and asked the right questions so she could be clear about them. She was patient, knowledgeable and friendly and found us our dream holiday within our budget. I would definitely recommend her without hesitation.

Mrs Magda Adeyemi, Harrow

Elaine booked us our three stop holiday in Brazil which was excellent. The hotels were very good, all the transfers worked like a dream and the guides who collected us and then took us on tours were very good indeed.

Mrs Penny Singleton, Stratford upon Avon

I have used Elaine's services for a number of years and we would have no hesitation in recommending Elaine and Travel Cousellors ( in fact we already have). The booking and after service is second to none. Well done Elaine.

Mr Peter Gough, Pershore

Elaine is the perfect travel agent. She's patience itself, knowledgeable, fully informed and gives very helpful advice. It's easy to communicate with her either by phone or email and she is very personable. I like working with her. I haven't taken my trip yet, so there will be more later!

Dr Alice Bullough, St. Andrews

I first met Elaine by chance at my local Garden Club and immediately felt confident about her ability & efficiency to help me. My trip was to Moscow to visit my niece and then on to St. Petersburg by train to join a group with a guide to discover this interesting part of the world. Elaine helped me to organise my Russian visa [which was not easy].

I have no hesitation in recommending Elaine Blatcher.

Mrs Margaret Watkins, Stratford - upon -Avon

From the very first moment I spoke to Elaine I found her to be extremely helpful and professional. She helped and guided me through booking my family holiday to Mexico. Elaine was always very prompt in returning my emails and has a tremendous knowledge of many destinations. Nothing was ever too much trouble! I have since recommended her to friends and will certainly use her services again.

Mrs Natalie Maher, Chipping Campden

Elaine has booked hotels & travel plans for me on a number of occasions. Not only has she managed to get good prices each time, she keeps me informed of progress, makes sure all the details are covered and the plans have worked well. Even when we had to change plans at the last minute due to the swine flu problem in Mexico, Elaine dealt with this efficiently and without any murmur of complaint!

Ms Jean Harris, Stratford upon Avon

Elaine was professional and friendly throughout the booking process and found us the best deal available. I would recommend her services whether it be peripheral to the holiday or the actual holiday itself. Excellent communication throughout and I would use her services again.

Mrs Julie Stonall, Cradley Heath

We have booked our holidays through Elaine for a number of years now and we have always had a first class service, no matter where in the world we have booked.

We have no hesitation in booking through her as we know our every detail

will be catered for to our specific requirements.

It is a pleasure to have such personal service.

Mr & Mrs Melvyn & Pamela Oakley, Redditch, Worcestershire

Having known Elaine for many years now I find her an extremely hard working and conscientious person thoroughly enjoying her job and always the optimist - looking for the best deals and coming up with exactly what you want. I am extremely pleased with the standard of service she provides and would not hesitate to recommend her to a friend.

Mrs Jill Derwent, Ickleford, Hitchin

We were introduced to Elaine in 2009 when booking a holiday to Florida with friends who had used her services previously. Service was excellent and resulting holiday great. We asked Elaine for help to find a hotel for 3 nights in Brugge this summer for the family and she found us the most superb hotel for the most fantastic rates - we were thoroughly delighted and shall definitely use her again

Dr Rachel Blunt, Bishopstone, Swindon

I have asked Elaine to arrange my travel more than once, one of them being a rather complicated trip to Zimbabwe. I need wheelchair assistance at the airports, and on every occasion this has been arranged to my complete satisfaction. She has also given me valuable advice concerning visas and I would have no hesitation in saying that my requirements have been fully and efficiently met.

Mrs Anna Wathen, Stratford-upon-Avon

Elaine has organised many excellent holidays for us. She is always a pleasure to deal with and has a sunny disposition. Her knowledge of the market is excellent and very broad and we have always been very pleased with the arrangements she has made for us.

Mr john hudson, solihull

I have been using Elaine, our Travel Counsellor, for several years now and she never fails to amaze me as to how much energy she has and how helpful she is. I would never think of using another Travel Counsellor because I have a great relationship with her and she knows now just what I like when we are planning a holiday. The itinerary she usually plans is perfect for us. Great job Elaine!!

Mrs LINDA BLAKEMORE, COVENTRY

Elaine, our Travel Counsellor, is a mind of information and offers us some great options when we are booking our holiday. She does not find anything at all too much trouble and takes all the worry out of booking our holiday. I would certainly recommend her and Travel Counsellors to everyone who asks.

Miss EVE JARRARD, COVENTRY

It is always a comfort booking through Elaine; whether by air, sea or plane, we know that she will be there for us should anything go wrong. Very helpful advice regading parking, curency exchange and prompt service regarding tickets and general travel arrangeements.

Thank you Elaine, we have enjoyed several good holidays with your help and hope that we will book many others in the future.

Tim

Mr & Mrs T. Lea, Evesham

We started using Elaine as our Travel Counsellor following a recommendation from friends. First of all Elaine helped organise our honeymoon in New Zealand. We were so impressed with her service that we have used Elaine for all our significant travel arrangements since: be it long weekends to Prague or Copenhagen, or longer trips to the USA or Australia.

Professional, good value, peace of mind.

Mr & Mrs Crispin & Cortnie Porter, Camberley

It is a pleasure to provide this testimonial for Elaine, who is nothing but efficient and helpful in every aspect of arranging our holiday breaks. Elaine is so very pleasant to deal with and every little detail has been thought about and taken care of to ensure that our holiday is trouble free. A true pofessional with the experience to know. Thank you Elaine.

Mr Timothy Lea, Evesham

We have had the pleasure of working with Elaine on a number of occasions when sorting out a holiday. Nothing seems to to be too much trouble, Elaine responds quickly and efficiently to all requests and has been able to deliver sound advice, an excellent choice of hotels and resorts and great holidays all with a personal touch that has made us feel she is more of a friend than someone working for us.

Mr Stephen Hope, Snowshill Nr Broadway

I do not enjoy the process of arranging travel or travel itself but I do enjoy going to new places. I am pedantic about arrangements made for me rather than by me. Not, perhaps, the best of clients! However, Elaine makes all of the above disappear. No detail is unimportant to her or if it is she does not show it. She is adaptable, flexible and has met all my needs with exemplary service.

Mr Stuart Kneller, Billericay

Having been introduced to Elaine through a friend we met and described our thoughts regarding a round the world trip. Elaine took our basic thoughts and developed a number of options which we together worked into an itinerary. The result was a fabolous trip greatly aided by Elaine arranging Business and Upper Class flights for £3700 per head. Highly recommended - our friends now enjoy her services.

Mr Roy Dobbins, Tanworth in Arden
