It's Nice To Meet You
My name is Alex and I am a South Shields based Travel Counsellor.
I focus on building long-term relationships with my clients, grounded in trust, understanding, and independent advice. My goal is to make planning your holiday as convenient and stress-free as possible. I love listening to your ideas about the perfect getaway and turning them into an itinerary that brings your dream holiday to life.
I arrange a wide range of holidays, including tailor-made journeys, weddings, honeymoons, cruises, ski trips, and everything from economy to first-class travel.
I can also book through all the well-known, trusted tour operators, so whether it’s a cruise, a Jet2 break, a TUI package, or a Kuoni getaway — I’ve got you covered. With Travel Counsellors, I also have access to airlines, hotels, attractions, and anything you can dream of to create truly bespoke holidays.
Holidays are all about making memories, and some of my favourite travel experiences have been in destinations such as Australia, Singapore, Borneo, Jordan, Morocco, Antigua, Barbados, the USA, Canada, Costa Rica, Mexico, Thailand, Bali, Sri Lanka, India, Egypt, Dubai, and across Europe.
Whether it’s a few days for a solo retreat or a trip of a lifetime, I’d love to help make it a reality. I offer a personal service with appointments or calls at times to suit you — no call centres, no confusing websites, just personal care from start to finish.

Why use a Travel Counsellor
Let's plan your dream trip together
Tailor-made for you
Your holiday isn’t just a trip away. It’s a longed-for escape, time to reconnect with loved ones, or a dream adventure you never thought possible. That’s why I take the time to truly get to know you and understand your hopes and expectations, then use my experience, connections and passion for the destination to create a trip that makes those dreams a reality.
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.
Stress-free travel, and more time for what matters most
I believe your time away should be stress-free, easy, and seamless from start to finish. So, I take care of all the details for you - from ATOL protection, insurance, and flexible payments to access to the myTC app, which keeps everything in one place.
Support when it matters most
If the unexpected happens, you can rest easy, knowing that I’ll handle any last-minute changes, flight cancellations, or disruptions before you even pick up the phone. So you always feel happy, carefree, and ready to make the most of every moment.
