Curating Tailor-Made Journeys & Unforgettable Experiences
Hello, I'm Amy, your independent and trusted Travel Counsellor. Travel has been part of my life for as long as I can remember, and that lifelong love of exploring now goes into creating tailor‑made, stress‑free holidays that are as unique as the people I plan them for.
My own adventures have given me first‑hand knowledge of Africa's breathtaking landscapes and unforgettable wildlife, alongside extensive travels across Australasia. Closer to home, I have a real soft spot for Europe, especially Greece and Italy, where history, culture, incredible cuisine and beautiful coastlines come together so beautifully.
Whether you're planning a luxury family holiday, a romantic escape, an adventure off the beaten track, a cruise, a multi‑centre itinerary or a short city break, every trip is thoughtfully tailored around you. From Northern Lights and Disney magic to wine tours in France, Japan’s rich history or spotting the Big Five on safari, I’ll take care of the details to create a seamless experience from start to finish. Working alongside my mum, who brings over 40 years of travel expertise, we combine personal insight with trusted advice and a genuine commitment to exceptional service.

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.
