PLANNING YOUR HOLIDAY COULD NOT BE A BETTER EXPERIENCE! My name is Archana and I am based in Thatcham, West Berkshire. For clients based in Newbury and the West Berkshire surrounding area, I can now be your very own Personal Travel Counsellor. I have a wealth of knowledge and experience gained from over 20 years in the Travel Business both in Retail and Management. I commenced my travel career at Thomas Cook in London in their Foreign exchange division and was privileged to be accepted for their accelerated management development programme where I gained my experience in leisure travel and management. I am widely travelled and have visited the Far East, Indian Ocean, Caribbean Islands, USA, and Europe. I am able to make the experience in booking your travel plans special, whether that be tailor made and package holidays, cruises, car hire, airport parking, travel insurance or hotel only. The list is endless. This experience is enhanced by the best guaranteed financial protection scheme available in the travel industry for my clients. I certainly know what can make or break a trip! My aim is to offer my clients the best personalised one-to-one service for all their travel needs. Unlike the high street, at Travel Counsellors, we are able to assist our clients at the time and day to suit them. With the use of the very latest technology and working with many leading tour operators, I can offer the best value and choice available; couple that with my experience and you can’t go wrong! I like to be able to offer the highest standard of service and really discover what it is my clients want to do with their valuable time and money. I treat every client as ‘special’ and go that extra mile to ensure they don’t just enjoy their holidays but have memories that will last for as long as they want. I want to share my experience to ensure your experience is the best. Don’t hesitate to bring your most demanding, outrageous, or just simple requests to me. Start dreaming that perfect holiday. ‘All our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them’ Walt Disney I would love to hear from you. Warm wishes, Archana.

I love having a tailored made holiday with someone who listens to what I want. I had the most perfect holiday this year, the only thing that went wrong was nothing to do with TC. In fact, everything they arranged worked. I am going again through them, I have learnt what to do in safety and comfort.

I write to offer a testimonial to the outstanding level of service offered by my Travel Counsellor, Archana Nathwani. I met Archana whilst on holiday in 2001 and was immediately struck by her vivacious and warm personality, and was happy to offer her the opportunity of arranging my next holiday. What a great decision that was! Over the past 6 years I have returned time and again to Archana to assist me and my family with our holiday plans. Archana is always positive and helpful and nothing is too much trouble for her. I never cease to be amazed by the level of her responsiveness and her 'can do' attitude. Of course, the true test of any service provider is how they react when things don’t go according to plan. On a couple of occasions we have encountered challenges whilst on holiday and on each occasion we were able to contact Archana (even on Easter Saturday evening in one case) and she did whatever it took to ensure that our challenges were resolved. It is extremely reassuring to know that we have Archana as our 'safety net' each time we leave home. I have recommended Archana’s services to my work colleagues and friends and always know that they too will be impressed by her ability to listen to what people are looking for and to help source the ideal holiday solution. In a world where so often people make promises and fail to deliver, Archana is an inspiring example of professionalism, personal integrity and commitment. In my opinion she is a diamond and a brilliant ambassador for Travel Counsellors.
