Based In Bury
Thank you for taking the time to view my web page.
My name is Ann and I am an independent travel agent based in Bury, Lancashire. I have been in the travel industry for over 30 years and joined Travel Counsellors in 2002. Prior to that I was a manager for two of the major high street agencies.
My clients live all over the UK and I even have some clients who live overseas. I feel that the reason for my success is my passion for good old fashioned service, my personal experience of worldwide destinations and my independent advice.
As a Travel Counsellor I use my personal expertise to tailor make exactly the right holiday to suit your needs. Rather than selling you a standard tour operator package, I can quickly search through hundreds of different flight, accommodation and transfer alternatives to find something that suits your needs exactly. Quite often this means I can build you a bespoke holiday at a cheaper price than the standard holiday package you might get elsewhere.
One of my favourite destinations is the Caribbean and I have just been awarded the prestigious 'Platinum Agent' award from the Caribbean Tourism Organisation, which is the highest award they have. It is given in recognition of visits to the islands and completion of tasks and stringent questionnaires. I have also received many other industry accolades such as Cotac, City & Guilds, NVQs and destination awards such as ‘Aussie Specialist’ and many others. I feel that it is very important to keep in touch with all aspects of the industry through various on-line training systems.
My business is based purely on providing my customers with the highest possible levels of personal service and I would be delighted to assist you with any of your holiday plans and dreams.
I look forward to hearing from you soon.

River cruising is becoming increasingly popular as a way of seeing culture and scenery of several cities and even countries, without having to pack and unpack your suitcase many times. I was very lucky to be one of the Travel Counsellors to be invited on board the new Tapestry ll to cruise the first four nights of their Paris to Normandy landing beaches cruise at the end of September. We fle

I was very excited to be invited to take part in an educational trip to the Rhineland-Palatinate region of Germany in September. I used to visit the Rheingau region many years ago and this area was just across the Rhine from there. We were a small group of six agents travelling from London, Birmingham, Dublin and Manchester and were escorted by the lovely Silke from the German National Tourist

I’d love to tell you a little about a wonderful island that I personally discovered only this year. Many times my good friend and fellow travel agent Chris has told me about her love affair with Grenada, an island in the Eastern Caribbean just 100 miles north of Venezuela………so in May 2008 we decided that was where we would take our holiday. The island is small, roughly 21 miles long by 12 mi
