It's Nice To Meet You
Welcome to my page! I’m Alice, and I am delighted to meet you. If you are on the lookout for that dream getaway then you are in the right place.
I specialise in tailor-made, bespoke itineraries for busy professionals; whether it be a family holiday, bucket-list adventure, honeymoon or anything else in between. I work with clients from all walks of life.
I provide a bespoke and personal service when it comes to booking those all-important holidays. Holidays are some of the most important events in our calendars and I want to help you make the most of that valuable time away from the daily grind. As a Travel Counsellor, I truly care about you and your needs, and I want to turn your dream holiday into a reality. I do what is right by you as my client.
Let me tell you a little bit about how I work. I start off by getting to know you to get a clear understanding of what you want from your holiday and the sort of traveller you are. I pride myself on my attention to detail and thoroughness, so I will take the time to talk to you before I then turn my creative hand to designing your dream holiday, hand-picking every element. My objective is to present you with an itinerary that 100% has you in mind, is tailor-made and individual to you and generates those endorphins that booking a holiday gives you. Once you book with me, my service does not end there, and I will be your personal concierge until after you return from your trip. I'm able to arrange airport car parking, a hotel the night before you fly, a luxurious airport lounge and security fast-track, as well as activities and excursions to enhance your holiday experience. If you are looking for something extra special, I can arrange travel by private jet and helicopter travel to arrive in style at your chosen destination.
I can also offer you a one-stop shop for your travel plans with the "myTC" App and Web Portal where you can access your quotes, make secure payments and view your fabulous itineraries once booked. UK and home-based, I’m available at a time to suit you on the phone, WhatsApp and by email. Where I can, I will try to meet you in person for that first exciting chat about your travel plans. As part of the multi-award-winning Travel Counsellors, when you book with me, your money is safely held in our independant financial trust and all package holidays are ATOL protected, giving you complete peace of mind.
I've experienced fantastic holidays myself with my husband, family and friends. I’ve enjoyed staying in 4- and 5-star luxury resorts and smaller, more boutique hotels. I’ve visited many countries in Europe and parts of the world much further afield, such as Thailand, Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Kuala Lumpur, Singapore, the USA and the Caribbean. A personal favourite is Thailand, and I’ve enjoyed stays in Bangkok, Khao Lak, Koh Samui and Koh Phangan, as well as having visited the stunning Similan Islands. I’ve travelled on multi-centre holidays, twin-centre escapes, immersed myself in city breaks, and relaxed on indulgent beach getaways, as well as released my inner child to enjoy exciting theme parks in Florida and Europe. I can help you with any type of holiday and with the support of a community of over 2000 Travel Counsellors, I have expert knowledge at my fingertips.
I would absolutely love to help you with your travel plans so what are you waiting for? Send me an enquiry, let’s grab that coffee (virtual or in person) and have a chat so we can start to plan your dream holiday; personal to you and with those all-important details that make it extra special.

Sri Lanka: A Small Island Full of Big Moments
Every so often I visit somewhere that reminds me exactly why I do what I do. Sri Lanka was one of those trips. Rather than rushing around ticking off sights, I travelled with a private driver‑guide who met us in Colombo, stayed with us throughout, and dropped us back at the airport at the end. It felt like travelling with a local friend who knew all the secret viewpoints, snack stops and stories

Sintilating Singapore
Singapore was always on my list of cities to visit but Race Across The World really gave me the oomph to make it happen. What. A. City. Prior to life as a Travel Counsellor, I went here having booked through another travel provider. Ask me about Singapore and I will talk to you about it with enthusiasm and excitement! My husband and I tagged Singapore on to the end of a dreamy beach holiday to Th
