It's Nice To Meet You

Welcome, I’m Sandra Robinson—your trusted Travel Counsellor with a world of experience at your service.

With over 50 years in the travel industry, I bring unparalleled knowledge, dedication, and personal care to every journey I create. My career has spanned airlines and independent agencies, retail and business travel, and the experiences I’ve gathered along the way allow me to truly understand what makes an unforgettable, seamless holiday.

Having travelled extensively—from Patagonia’s wild vistas and the wonders of Brazil to Norwegian fjords, Alaskan adventure, and the exotic energy of Southeast Asia—I offer first-hand insight into destinations across the globe. Whether you dream of exploring Iceland’s wild beauty (a country close to my heart with family ties), witnessing the magic of Antarctica and the Arctic on bucket-list cruises, or discovering the charms of European cities like Rome and Tallinn, I’m here to ensure your travels are extraordinary.

Unlike online booking sites, I take time to listen, tailoring each holiday or business trip to your unique needs and desires. If I wouldn’t stay there myself, I won’t recommend it to you. My mission is simple: to provide you with the very best advice, value, and service—because your holiday truly matters.

Many of my clients return time and again or trust me with their most special occasions, from honeymoons and weddings abroad to family adventures and luxury getaways. I’m proud that over 90% of my business comes from happy repeat clients and treasured recommendations.

Whether you’re searching for inspiration (such as Northern Lights adventures, unforgettable city breaks, or world-class cruising) or require expert planning for complex or bespoke itineraries, I offer complete peace of mind at every step. My recent travels include Patagonia, Brazil, Bali, Canada (coast to coast), Alaska, Dubai, Hawaii, Russia, Vietnam, Cambodia, Borneo, Australia, New Zealand, and beyond. I’m always happy to share honest, practical advice, inspirational stories, and insider tips.

Travel is not just my job, it’s my lifelong passion. For a taste of the wonderful opportunities and changes I’ve witnessed over the years, you can read my memoir, All Over the Place—a light-hearted look at the industry and my many adventures.

Ready to start planning? Let’s make your travel dreams a reality. I look forward to designing your next unique escape—simply get in touch and experience the difference of truly personal service.

The Seventh Continent

The Seventh Continent

One bucket list destination I was fortunate to visit was Antarctica, travelling in style on Scenic Eclipse, having flown from Buenos Aires to Ushuaia. Leaving Ushuaia we headed south to the Antarctic peninsular, where we found clear skies, placid waters, snowy cliffs and sea ice all around us. The ship offered various ways to enjoy the scenery. There were two helicopters on board for scenic flig

Exploring the Yorkshire Dales

Exploring the Yorkshire Dales

2020 had scuppered any plans to travel abroad, but feeling the need to see a different part of the UK, we decided to rent a cottage and discover the scenic delights of the Yorkshire Dales. Fortunately we were extremely lucky with the weather, as this really is an area where it's needed. We stayed just south of Settle, on the Lancashire/Yorkshire border, in a beautiful quiet spot, but only about 15

Cape Town & Garden Route

Having sent a lot of clients to South Africa and along the Garden route, I decided it was about time I paid a visit, so in March 19 we flew out to Cape Town and headed for the V&A Waterfront. We stayed in an apartment just 5 mins walk from the main tourist waterfront area, so no problem with finding anywhere to eat. We loved the relaxed safe vibe of the Waterfront and enjoyed browsing the Artisan

In Search of Orangutans

One of my bucket wishlist trips was to see Orangutans in Borneo, and this year I have ticked this one off. We flew via Kuala Lumpur for an overnight airport hotel stop and onward to Sandakan. Our guide took us to our accommodation just outside the Sepilok Orangutan Reserve. As we arrived in the early afternoon we had time to walk to the Reserve in the hope of seeing some Orangutans feeding. Food i

Patagonian Adventure Part 2 - Argentina

We had arrived in Argentina and woke in El Calafate to see another highlight of our trip the Perito Moreno Glacier. Another place high on my wish list, we took a well-organized excursion, picking up others on the way and were driven about an hour around the lake towards the mountains.

Winter sunshine in The Gambia

The Gambia is a country I've never considered visiting, so leaving the UK on a bitterly cold January morning, I had no preconceived idea of what to expect on my arrival. The six-hour nonstop charter flight arrived mid-afternoon. It’s the same time as Britain so no need to adjust. It was lovely stepping out in the warm air, dressed in summer clothing. Immigration was a breeze, but slightly chaot

Long weekend in New York

We decided it was time for a return visit to New York, so in June 2016, we set off for a weekend exploring. Interesting to compare our experiences at immigration. 2 of us arrived at JFK, and the immigration queue was very long, taking about 2hrs to get through. 2 people flew to Newark and got through immigration quickly, so they arrived at our hotel some time before we did.

Long weekend in Abu Dhabi

Along with over 100 Gold Travel Counsellors, I was invited to spend a few days sampling all that Abu Dhabi has to offer. My first impression is that the city is clean, and gradually developing. It is not as high rise as Dubai, which is only 90 minutes away by car. It is quite a spread out city, and not a place that is structured for pedestrians. There are some lovely hotels, which would be su

Fantastic organisation from Sandra at Travel Counsellors and from Rannveig at Obeo Travel who was our ground handler in Iceland. Both were first class in making sure our holiday went went well and they took away the hassle of us booking individual trips ourselves. Everything was sorted in one booked and we would thoroughly recommend using their services. This is especially so when visiting somewhere like Iceland as many trips are weather dependant: we had one trip affected by the weather and after a couple phone calls Rannveig re-organised our day.... she organised it so well that we we had as good a day, if not better, than originally planned. These ladies are simply the best !

I can thoroughly recommend booking any holiday through Sandra. We have been booking through Sandra for several years now and, whether it be an intimate holiday for two or a family holiday for a dozen, Sandra has always found the right holiday for us. She always knows exactly what kind of accommodation and destination will suit us and nothing is too much trouble for her, whether we are dithering over places and hotels and requesting lots of quotes or asking for little details to be clarified. She is always courteous, happy and friendly and is a pleasure to deal with.

Personalised service. Always

When you plan a holiday with me, you’ll be given my personal mobile number from the very first call. I’ll listen to your thoughts and ideas like I would a friend and arrange accommodation, activities, and flights that are all personalised to you. And I’ll share my personal tips and recommendations, so you can experience the true beauty of each destination.
