Tilbury
Hi I am Jenny, With 20+ years in travel and 50+ countries explored, I create stress free holidays designed just for you.
Travel has always been my greatest passion, and I’m dedicated to turning your holiday dreams into reality. With over 20 years of experience and first-hand knowledge from visiting more than 50 countries, I specialise in creating bespoke escapes tailored to you.
Whether you’re seeking a seamless multi-centre adventure, a relaxing island retreat or a new off-the-beaten-path discovery, I’ll design every detail around your needs. Organising complex itineraries can be daunting, but my highly personalised service ensures you enjoy every step, from the initial planning right through to your safe return. Every holiday I book is also 100% financially protected for complete peace of mind.
Because I work from home, I’m available when it suits you, offering flexible, exceptional service designed around your lifestyle.
My travels have taken me across Greek islands and the Caribbean, through the vibrant cities and islands of Thailand and the Philippines, and to Europe’s most iconic city break destinations. I’m passionate about scuba diving in the Maldives, Mauritius and Seychelles, and have sailed on cruises in both the Caribbean and Alaska. Unforgettable highlights include exploring Canada’s Rockies aboard the Rocky Mountaineer and ticking off my dream safari in Cape Town, followed by a recent journey in the Serengeti and swimming with whale sharks off Mafia Island before relaxing in Zanzibar. My most recent adventure brought me to Fiji, which stands out as the friendliest place I’ve ever visited – the warmth and hospitality there is simply unmatched.
If I haven’t experienced a destination personally, I’ve almost certainly studied it, having completed specialist tourism courses to deepen my expertise.
It’s my joy to fit my own adventures around crafting unforgettable holidays for my clients. Whatever destination inspires you next, I’d love to help create your perfect escape – just ask, and I’ll have it covered, through first-hand experience or expert insight.

My top 10 things to do in Mauritius
Top 10 Things To Do In Mauritius 1) TRY THE STREET FOOD - Mauritian Street Food is amongst the best in the world – there, we said it! A unique mix of Creole, African, Indian, and Chinese influences, the dishes offer bursts of intricate flavours. Spices, colours, and flavours come together to form a scrumptious (yet little known!) cuisine. Where else would you find a French bouillon laced with Ind

Our Safari, whale shark and beach adventure.
We have travelled a lot but this has been one of our Favourite holidays, Tanzania was a great experience. We travelled with Turkish Airlines for the first time and I found them pretty good. The layover was only short in Istanbul and there is so many shops at the airport its a massive airport so you have a lot of shops and restaurants and bars should you have longer layovers. We started our adve

My Safari trips in South Africa
After our stay in Cape Town we went onto our safari in the Amakhala Game Reserve. We flew from Cape Town (approx an hour) to Port Elizabeth and then about an hour transfer by road. We were so excited to arrive at the Bukela Lodge for our first Safari trip as its been on my bucket list for a long time. We had lunch and then were shown to our room and at 3 pm met for our first game drive. Ga

My 5 days in Cape Town
I absolutely loved Cape Town and I would now class it as one of my favourite cities. It is so diverse with so much to do with nice beaches, stunning scenery, lovely restaurants, lots of sea life and wild life options close by. Great wine at fantastic prices. Friendly people, what more could you ask for! I didn't expect Cape Town to be so cheap either for example you could get an Uber around the c

My Ellaidhoo Dream
Ellaidhoo is a beautiful Island in the Maldives with a great House reef for diving or snorkelling. Dine under the stars. Explore the marine life in the crystal clear waters, relax on the beach or by the pool or enjoy a Balinese massage at the resort spa. Flying over Male always brings a tear to my eye (of happiness) as it’s so beautiful seeing all the Atolls and the beautiful beaches and Aqua b

Sandals Royal Barbados
Our trip to Barbados was during COVID restrictions so we didn’t know what to expect www.visitbarbados.org and the resort were very helpful with any concerns before travel. We used a clinic in Kent called Wren Healthcare for our PCR Covid test before travel and they offered a great efficient and professional service. Airport check in was a breeze with only a few people in the queue and eerily qui

Biyadhoo Island
This was our third visit to the island and it just seems to get better each time. The speedboat transfer from Male is about 40 mins and you are given a cold towel on arrival with a coconut drink to cool you down as it was a long journey with the indirect flights we had (but totally worth it). We arrived late morning and were very lucky to be given our room before check in time of 2pm so we were a
