"We cannot thank Simone enough for her past and present help. She is currently assisting in organising a family holiday to Italy - and we know that it will be executed properly and everything will be in place when we get there. Life is complicated enough but Simone is a specialist in her field, one who goes that extra mile to make special occasions even more special. Why anyone would not use her services is a mystery to us! Long may she keep going.

Mrs Sue Hughes, Cheshire

We were desperate for a good holiday and a good time, as we are both working people. My wife is a teacher and it’s the most expensive time for a holiday. The minute the school holidays come, prices seem to go sky high. We searched for varies locations and prices and then I spoke to my daughter who recommended Simone. We talked to Simone about our requirements and budget and she found what we required within our budget. We had a wonderful holiday in Turkey.

Thanks Simone

P.S. We will recommend you to our friends and family for a job well done!

Mr Amarjit Chaven, Galley Common

Simone is quite frankly a miracle worker when it comes to booking holidays - she's got such a good memory and such fabulous knowledge that you know that when you're booking with her you've got a wonderful experience to come. I take my hat off to her - she's amazing. We've been booking with Simone since my daughter was 6 (she's 12 now) and have just come back from a great break in New York city. Thanks to Simone, I can rest assured that all the i's will be dotted and t's will be crossed - and we can just enjoy ourselves!

Miss Lalla Dutt, London

Simone has been my travel counsellor of choice for the past four years. She spent the time to get to know my travel preferences up front which means that she has never failed to deliver on perfectly matched holidays and travel. The service I get from Simone is by far superior to any holiday specialist I have used previously. I would highly recommend Simone to anyone who is looking for hassle free holiday and travel selection.

Miss Kylie Roberts, London

Simone is always available at times to suit us. She gives excellent service, arranging the holidays that we want rather than something out of a brochure. And always good value as well!

Mr Andrew McKendrick, Winscombe

Being someone who normally loves to organise our own holidays, when I was told about Simone by my best friend who had booked her Australian honeymoon with TC and couldn't sing Simone's praises enough, I half-heartedly contacted her with our 'ideal honeymoon' itinerary.

Within a couple of days of checking various options, Simone found a holiday that ticked all our boxes - a self drive around Cuba including four different location hotel bookings ending with a 5* all inclusive hotel on the beach.

I had forgotten how blissfully stress-free it is to have someone book your holiday for you! Thank you Simone, your friendly service was fantastic, we can't wait to start our adventure and will recommend you to anyone who ever mentions holidays in the future!

Miss Melanie Knight, Norwich

Simone has always provided us with excellent advice and service. We have set her destinations that have often been off the beaten track or travel demands that are just plain complex and she has always responded brilliantly. travelling to Varanasi? do you want to take a boat on the Ganges with that? !

Our latest jaunt will be to Istanbul in a weeks time. I spoke to Simone who had it organised within days. When she heard it was a surprise for my wife she had tickets hotel and vouchers arranged and delivered them personally-you can't ask for better than that!

We already have her working on a Trans-Mongolian trip for the summer of 2012, can't wait to see what she dreams up...thanks for everything Simone!

Mr Francis Waterhouse, London

Simone is honest, very helpful always there in the time of need, she sorted my transport to the hotel and back to airport, all accomodation even at last minute. Simone is amazing this is my third time using Simone and I can say she is reliable and efficient. service is commendable and very reliable. I am booking my next holiday the trouble is I dont know where I want to go,as I know simone is ready and waiting, always has time for me,love the personal touch, recommend to friends and family.

Mrs stacy bryan, london

My husband and I have called on Simone to organise several holidays, the first being our wedding accommodation and honeymoon (we got married in Italy). She did a fantastic job and we both felt very confident knowing that our special plans were in such capable hands. Nothing is too much bother for Simone. She is clearly very experienced and takes a great pride in organising fantastic holidays. That's why this year we have once again asked Simone to organise our summer holiday, this time travelling around Thailand, Vietnam and Cambodia. With Simone we are able to be honest and know we will end up with a holiday that has been thoroughly researched to meet our personal requirements. Several times Simone has come to our house to discuss plans in greater detail and its lovely to know that she really does have your best interests at heart.

We have been so pleased with the efficiency, level of knowledge and general service we have experienced with Simone that we happily recommend her to others - especially if they're after a more special holiday, as opposed to something straight off the shelf. My mum is currently organising her 60th birthday in Boston through Simone and is also very impressed with the high level of service!

Mrs Lisa Brown, Bexleyheath

Where to start? At the beginning, my wife and myself were looking for something special for our 40th wedding anniversary. A phone call to Simone solved our problem very quickly and efficiently. The holiday she put together for us was truly wonderful. Simone has also put flight only packages together for us when we travelled to New Zealand and once again everything was spot on. Will book with Simone again.

Mr anthony dayson, newcastle under lyme

Simone has been very helpful with the holidays that she has arranged for me and my friends. She takes away the headache of trying to sort out connecting flights, hiring cars and finding suitable hotels in the areas I have wanted to stay. It has made it so easy to just turn up where required, hand over the paperwork and get on with the holiday and relax!

Miss Lynne Smith, Longfield, Kent

I met Simone Gray from Travel Counsellors completely by chance at a travel show and what a chance that was. She has been the most amazing travel agent I've ever had. We have booked 3 holidays through her, including our honeymoon, and they have all been amazing. I believe what makes her so special is her endless patience, friendly service and the ability to understand exactly what the client wants and deliver that and nothing less. I'm not sure how many travel agents you know that would investigate the thickness of curtains in villas so that the kids sleep in late, but Simone is definitely one of them! We are very picky clients and we care a lot about tiny details regarding every aspect of our trip, so booking a holiday for us is no easy task. Simone has never failed and that is the reason why we keep booking our holidays through her. We have also recommended her to many of our friends and they all have been extremely pleased with her service.

Miss Katerina Tanti, London

What can we say??

Simone is a most understanding and paitent Travel Counsellor. We have given her many vague ideas and she always manages to turn them into wonderful holidays. If she cannot assist she will say so, you always know where you are. We have reccommended Simone to our friends and will continue to do so. Thanks again.

Mr & Mrs Rowland and Pat Cross, Wolverhampton, West Midlands

Both myself, wife and family have used Simone for the past six years for all our holiday needs. When I say all I really do mean all. No booking is too much trouble for Simone from our weekend away in sunny Bolton to our cruises around the Caribbean, shopping in New York, Boston, Mexico, Dominican Republic, Spain, Vegas and Florida to name but a few .

We find that not only do we have our own private travel agent but more importantly now have a good friend who we trust. We recommend Simone to friends, family, work collegues in the knowledge that she will only offer them the best service, sometimes even if it means missing a sale.

In this day and age Simone is a rare gem to find but luckily we did. Booking a holiday is no longer a hassle but more of a social chat with a good friend. Keep up the great work.

Mr & Mrs Andrew and Jane Rowley, Pontefract, West Yorkshire

Simone has been our travel counsellor for nearly 5 years now. She has been absolutely brilliant. Whatever flights, accommodation, transport and parking we have needed for our journey she has sorted it all out for us. No job too small should be her motto. We have recommended her to our friends and family and they also have been extremely satisfied with her work. She is a marvel, absolutely brilliant, fantastic, don't know what we would do without her.

Mrs Lesley Sillett, Colchester, Essex

Just a few words about Mark and Simone at Travel Counsellors. From my first contact with them, what I thought was an impossible request and one that may prove problematic, was no trouble at all to them. Our holiday was a great success. The holiday plus all the trips went smoothly.

Dealing with our holiday arrangements over the telephone was made easy. We were made to feel like we were talking to a good friend. We would have no hesitation in recommending Markand Simone to anyone.
