It's Nice To Meet You
Hello, I’m Louise Webster, and for over 26 years I’ve been running my own travel business, doing what I genuinely love – taking the stress out of holiday planning and helping people make brilliant memories
What I do
I help people travel well. That means listening properly, offering honest advice, and pulling together holidays that are thoughtfully planned and beautifully balanced – so all you have to do is enjoy the excitement of going away.
Why Book With Me?
No two people travel the same way – and that’s exactly why I specialise in bespoke holidays.
I take the time to really get to know you: how you like to travel, what excites you, what you’d rather avoid, and what will make your holiday feel truly special. From there, I carefully design a trip that’s built entirely around you – not a template, not a package pulled off the shelf.
Whether it’s a once‑in‑a‑lifetime adventure, a special celebration, or simply a holiday that needs to be just right, I bring together flights, accommodation, experiences and those all‑important finishing touches to create something unique.
My aim is simple:
✅ Thoughtful planning
✅ Honest advice
✅ A holiday that fits you perfectly
And throughout it all, you have the reassurance of personal support from me – before you travel, while you’re away, and when you return home.
As a Cruise Ambassador at Travel Counsellors, cruising is one of my true specialisms. I don’t just sell cruises – I’ve experienced them first‑hand. From choosing the right cruise line and ship to understanding cabin types, dining styles, itineraries and little details that make a big difference, I offer honest, expert advice tailored to how you want to travel.
When you book with me, you benefit from:
Cruise expertise you can trust
As a Cruise Ambassador, I have in‑depth knowledge of ocean and river cruises, from mainstream to luxury and specialist journeys. I’ll match you with the cruise that genuinely suits you – not just the one with the loudest brochure.
Personal, one‑to‑one service
You deal directly with me from start to finish. No call centres, no being passed from person to person – just a familiar face who knows your booking inside out.
Experience that counts
With 26 years of running my own travel business, I’ve seen it all and know how to handle the unexpected. That experience means smoother planning, better advice, and peace of mind.
Having travelled extensively across the USA, Canada, Europe and the Far East – and through my first‑hand cruise experience as a Cruise Ambassador – I bring real insight and honest advice to every holiday I plan.
Tailor‑made recommendations
I take time to understand what you enjoy, what matters to you, and how you like to travel – then I recommend options that truly fit, rather than a “one‑size‑fits‑all” solution.
Support before, during and after your holiday
I’m here long after the booking is made – whether that’s helping with dining reservations, special requests, or being on hand if plans change while you’re away.
Above all, I care about your holiday as much as you do. Many of my clients return year after year because they value the reassurance, honesty and personal service I provide.
Ready to start planning your next holiday?
I’d love to help bring your travel ideas to life. Get in touch for a friendly, no‑obligation chat.

The Seychelles Islands - Another World
What an amazing trip – Just got back from the Seychelles (in the Indian Ocean). The flight wasn’t too bad – I watched 3 films and we were there! Just 9 hours 30 mins from Heathrow with BA. We were met at the airport by our ground handlers and transferred to the Constance Ephelia. A lovely welcome with cold towels and a little cocktail. I was there in March and the weather was very hot and humid.

Wonders of Asia - Sri Lanka
II’ve just come home from a great trip to Sri Lanka with Kuoni Holidays. We travelled with Sri Lanka Airlines in economy. The service was good with curry for both meals. Seats were OK for economy and you get a good 30kgs luggage allowance! The ground handler Boulsted Whittam Travel met us, and our guide Tikka was very knowledgeable. He was called tikipedia by the end of the trip! We transfe

Amazing Argentina
Andrew and I flew with Latam airlines. We pre-booked extra leg room seats for the international flights – approx. £75 pp each way – well worth doing! We stopped in Buenos Aires for 3 nights. This is the birthplace of the Tango and we were lucky enough to watch a show one night whilst there. Goodness knows how they move their legs so quickly! We also had a visit to Ricoletta cemetery – where Ev

Barbados and Antigua
We wanted to go to the Caribbean but not stay on one island – so we decided to go to Barbados and Antigua as a 2 centre – and we also wanted somewhere with no children. We flew with British Midland from Manchester in premium class. This was great with extra leg room and upgrade meals – I loved it! We were met at the airport by our taxi driver and taken to the Almond Beach Club, an adults-o

Californian Road Trip
TThe SkyCouch on Air New Zealand was the best invention ever! Three seats that turned into a bed in economy, oh my god this was an amazing idea! Worth every penny! The cuddle strap that allows you to sleep on a made up bed with fluffy pillows and light duvet and not have to sit up through turbulence! Car hire companies are not at the airport and require a courtesy coach which can take up to 40

Mini Cruise on the Azura
I've just come back off the Azura with a few friends. It was an easy embarkation in Southampton onto the Azura. We ate in the main restaurant (Peninsula) both nights and the food was very good! I'm a rose drinker - only £3.65 per glass - not bad! Plenty of sunbeds on different decks - we were in the adults only area at the front of the ship - near the retreat( spa area) which is a bit qui
