Ben Harvey

My name is Ben Harvey, a Travel Counsellor based in Thatcham, West Berkshire. Think honest, kind and down to earth, with a healthy obsession for great holidays. I started my travel career with a UK based luxury tour operator and have since visited 27 countries across 4 continents, from Bali to California, picking up plenty of “I know a place…” moments along the way.

I’ve stayed in some of the world’s most luxurious resorts and I don’t believe in “flight, hotel, flight home” holidays. I want your trip to feel special, so I look at the whole experience: matching you with the right style of hotel (from rustic beach hideaways and characterful properties with history to sleek modern glamour), suggesting restaurants that suit your tastes, checking reviews, and highlighting local attractions and experiences that fit what you enjoy. My sweet spots are Caribbean beach escapes, unforgettable honeymoons, Disney & Orlando family holidays and up and coming cruise itineraries, but I can help with a wide range of trips worldwide.

I want planning your holiday to feel easy and enjoyable, even if you lead a busy life. WhatsApp is a great way to make that first contact with me and quickly book an appointment at a time that suits you. From there, I find a proper phone call or video chat works best so we can really talk things through, then I go away and build something thoughtful rather than rushed. If you ever have a question, whether it’s about plans before you go, something in resort or after you return, I’ll always do my best to go away, research it properly and come back to you as soon as I can. You can expect a genuinely personal, supportive approach from start to finish. If you’re thinking about your next escape, get in touch and let’s start turning ideas into an itinerary.
