From dream to departure: Your next escape, expertly planned

I'm Carly Holliday, your personal Travel Counsellor and a mum of two primary aged children, living in North Yorkshire. I have been fortunate to travel widely, as a solo traveller, with friends, with my now husband and with our children, to diverse locations including North America, Australia, the Carribean, South East Asia and many parts of Europe. I love using that first hand experience to bring your ideas to life. Whether you are planning your first family adventure abroad or looking to go further afield with older children, I will listen, advise honestly and look after you every step of the way.

I have experienced a wide range of holiday styles, from a beach fly and flop in Majorca, with a relaxed pool atmosphere, to more far flung locations like Thailand and India where vibrant adventures can be included ...alongside some all important flop time. I particularly enjoy organising holidays for young families, with the aim of inspiring a lifelong love of seeing the world. As a mum who understands the realities of travelling with children, I know that the smallest details make the biggest difference, from family friendly flight times to the right room setup and relaxed, child friendly experiences that everyone can enjoy. I can also help you add a bit of adventure to gently expand comfort zones and enable our young people to appreciate the joy of our diverse world.

Before joining Travel Counsellors, I built a career in conferencing and events, which means I am highly organised, calm under pressure and focused on getting every detail just right. I bring that same level of care to your holidays, creating itineraries that run smoothly so you can simply turn up and enjoy.

When you book with me through Travel Counsellors, your money and your holiday are protected by robust UK package travel regulations, including ATOL protection where applicable, which give you important rights if things do not go to plan. For TC Inclusive Packages, Travel Counsellors acts as the organiser of your holiday, which means the company is responsible for the proper performance of all the travel services in your booking, not just one element, so you have one contract, one point of contact and the reassurance that you are looked after from beginning to end . On top of that, secure payment systems and strong fraud prevention processes are in place behind the scenes to protect both you and your booking when you pay via myTC .

I understand how important holidays are in our busy lives. It is my role to listen and understand what you are looking to achieve from your well earned time away and turn those ideas into a trip that feels just right for you.
