It's Nice To Meet You
Hello
My name is Carol and I have worked in the travel industry for over 17 years. I love my job and am proud to be part of such a professional organisation as Travel Counsellors.
Working as a personal Travel Counsellor means I can offer you a wide range of holidays to suit your needs, whether it be a cruise, a tailor made itinerary, package holiday or simply a U.K. weekend break. At Travel Counsellors we deal with all the major tour operator, cruise companies and airlines and lots of niche companies that cannot be booked on the high street, I can also tailor make any holiday exactly to suit your needs. Whatever your requirements I am here to help you and to look after your booking from start to finish.
I have travelled extensively both in my career and personal life and specialise in many areas including Australia, Canada, USA, The Far and Middle East, South Africa and the Caribbean, as well as many areas in Europe. I have also been lucky enough to visit a lot of the cruise ships and recently sailed around the med on the Royal Clipper which was a great experience.
I can also arrange your dream wedding abroad and please ask me about our Bridal Registry Service which is a great way to get your guests to contribute to your honeymoon.
I offer all my customers a personal 1-2-1 level of customer service and care about every booking as if it was my own and am always at the other end of the phone should any problems arise and for complete peace of mind every aspect of your booking comes with a unique financial guarantee that you wont find anywhere else in the travel industry.
So please either give me a call or email me. I am totally flexible and work daytime or evening, and am available at weekends. I can even arrange a home visit if required.
I shall look forward to hearing from you and am here to look after all your travel arrangements whether it be business or pleasure.
Kind Regards
Carol

Florida, The Gulf Coast
I have visited the Gulf Coast of Florida several times and it is a place that I always love going back to. I always stay in Sarasota which is a lovely town with award winning beaches and lots of art and culture. I flew into Tampa which is about a 50 minute drive away or you can fly into Orlando which is about 2.5 hours away. The thing I like most about Sarasota is the great selection of beache

The staff simply could not do enough for us and as well as t

The Caribbean Island of Grenada
I have visited a lot of the larger Caribbean islands but this time I wanted to visit one of the smaller and more remote islands. I was not disappointed as Grenada is absolutely beautiful. We opted to stay at the Calabash which is a smallish boutique hotel in Prickly Bay. We chose one of the Whirlpool Suites which was a stone’s throw from the beautiful and clean white sandy beach. The service at
