It's Nice To Meet You

Welcome, and thank you for visiting my page. I am your personal Travel Counsellor, based on the Surrey/Hampshire borders just outside Farnham. After many happy years in London where my husband and I raised our three sons, we are now loving life in the beautiful countryside.

I bring over 10 years’ experience with a leading ski, lakes and mountains specialist and have visited more than 20 ski resorts across Europe. Skiing is a true passion of mine and I would be delighted to use that knowledge to help you find your perfect winter escape.

My love of travel goes far beyond the slopes. I have explored widely around this incredible planet and look forward to sharing some of the most inspiring destinations for every kind of trip, from short breaks to once‑in‑a‑lifetime adventures.

Whether you are short of ideas, searching for something a little different, or already have a plan in mind, I will work closely with you to design your ideal trip, so that all you need to do is relax and make memories.

I am here to guide you as much or as little as you need: from the first spark of an idea, through the exciting countdown to departure, while you are away, and once you return home. My aim is to give you complete peace of mind and the freedom to enjoy every moment.

So whether you are dreaming of family summer fun, travelling for work, a holiday to reconnect with loved ones, a recharging city break, a romantic escape, an active discovery trip or a simple fly‑and‑flop beach holiday, I would love to help.

Get in touch for a no‑obligation quotation and let the adventure begin.

I really appreciated your help in securing flights for me at a time when all seemed to be falling apart in the airline industry due to the Middle East crisis. I like the personal service and reassurance that I could speak to you should I needed help at any point on my journey. I will be back!

Awesome Experience - Exceptional Service Once Again! We just completed our second booking with Caroline Hoblyn, and once again, she delivered an absolutely flawless experience. Our first trip with Caroline was a belated honeymoon to Paris a couple of years ago - it was magical, thanks in no small part to her expert planning and personal touches. We knew right away that we'd turn to her again for our future travels. Although we live in Canada, we continue to use Caroline because her level of service is truly exceptional. She doesn't just book a holiday, she truly curates an experience. From the earliest planning stages right through to the end of our vacation, Caroline is there every step of the way. She goes above and beyond to ensure everything runs smoothly, offering reassurance, peace of mind, and a warm, friendly presence that makes all the difference. Her attention to detail, responsiveness, and genuine care for her clients make her stand out in a crowded field. It’s rare to find someone so committed and personable in the travel industry. We can't recommend her highly enough and look forward to planning many more adventures with her! Thank you, Caroline, for making travel feel effortless and unforgettable.

Caroline was very helpful from start to finish, finding the right package for me. She also checked in with me during my time at the airport to ensure I was ok during the checking in stage as she knew this holiday was my first for a long time. I will definitely be recommending her services and the company to my friends and family and using them again in the future. Thank you Caroline.

Caroline was absolutely fantastic. She was prompt, professional, and listened to all our needs for a complex family skiing holiday. It is fair to say she delivered - within budget, and exceeding our expectations (a win win). Would thoroughly recommend using Caroline to book your next winter holiday- she is exceptional.

If you’re ever looking for support with travel arrangements I can highly recommend Caroline Hoblyn . We had a fairly specific and slightly complex brief which was managed by Caroline with ease and I now have 10 very excited big and little kids heading to Disneyland Paris this August; thank you Caroline!

Sent by Lynne Pereira

We couldn’t praise Caroline Hoblyn enough, our recent trip to Paris was amazing wholly due to her expertise. She’s simply the BEST! Thanks to Caroline for all her efforts not just up to but during the vacation itself. Responsive is an understatement for the level of care and attention taken to make you feel special and considered throughout the vacation. Paris was a simply beautiful and very special experience, memories to last a lifetime.

Caroline Hoblyn did a fantastic job in helping to plan a trip to Florence and Venice for us and another couple to celebrate my 70th birthday. Flights, transfers and 4 excursions as well as 2 perfect hotels were suggested and arranged. Her knowledge will have saved us hours of internet searching and the fact that she is always in the background should anything not go to plan was very comforting. We would certainly recommend her and will definitely be using her services again.

Excellent service from Caroline who took all the stress out of booking a fabulous holiday. Will definitely be a “return customer”.

I have used Caroline for two European trips this year. One for a large family getaway to two cities and another quick midweek short visit for two. The recommendations were excellent and the flights, transfers, hotels and tours she organised were seamless. The personal touch was particularly appreciated when Caroline offered to print and drop off documents if that was easier. For a large group going on planes and trains it was! We look forward to future trips and I have recommended Caroline to friends.

If you want a hassle-free holiday and everything organised for you, use Travel Counsellors. This has not been our first experience and we have never been disappointed. On our most recent trip to Sicily our return flight was delayed which meant that two of our party would miss their flight connections at Gatwick. Caroline Hoblyn our personal advisor was immediately on the case and by the time we reached Gatwick alternative flights had been arranged and boarding passes emailed. A perfect ending to a great holiday. From start to finish a 5-star experience

Caroline has been terrific and we are so grateful. We got in touch very short notice, and it's been wonderful having the support in the final 10 days before our honeymoon. It really makes a difference to the whole experience. Thank you very much Caroline!!!

Our Wedding and Family Holiday in Mexico We booked our wedding in Mexico with Caroline Hoblyn who worked tirelessly to get us loads of different hotels and packages to choose from. She was a consummate professional throughout which can't have been easy because we kept changing our minds!! We also had a family group joining us so the arrangements got very complicated but Caroline steered us through all of it with good cheer, on budget and we had the trip which we had all dreamed of. We would have no hesitation in recommending her - you'll get the personal touch and nothing was too much trouble. Thank you Caroline!!

Second holiday booked with Caroline. She made everything so easy. She provided some great holiday options based on our discussion, in fact it was really hard to choose just one! Showed herself to be really knowledgeable and answered our queries quickly, Great communication and professionalism. Already thinking of holiday number three and will of course be using Caroline for that too.

Fantastic service can’t praise Caroline Hoblyn enough. Just returned from our first post Covid holiday. We wanted 10 days of sunshine, lovely accommodation letting us de-stress and relax. Caroline Hoblyn from Travel Counsellors was amazing! From giving suggestions based on our wants and needs to making our holiday happen she was so helpful and took all the stress away - all we did ourselves was pack and turn up at the airport at the appropriate time! She did everything else. I have mobility issues and Caroline sorted airport assistance at both ends of the holiday, arranged a mobility scooter for me at the resort and made sure the hotel was accessible. She is knowledgable about destinations and has an eye for detail so nothing is missed. We had a fabulous ten days in Cyprus and I have to say that it was the most stress free holiday ever and we have already asked her to start looking for ideas for our next one. I’d highly recommend Travel Counsellors for anyone who hates spending hours on line looking at holidays and who dislikes having to do the pre holiday admin. Using their services you get a holiday from holiday booking! If you get Caroline as your counsellor then you’ll be very lucky!

We contacted Caroline to help us organise our ski trip for 2022. We are a large group and Caroline gave us a few really good choices of destinations which ticked all of our boxes however, a few of our party are at uni/starting uni so we couldn't commit to dates as we are still not sure when we are able to go. So for the time being our plans are on hold. You haven't seen the last of us Caroline........as soon as we know for sure we will be back!!!!!

Wildlife & Conservation Holidays: Travel That Make a Difference

03 April 2026

Some holidays are about ticking off sights; others are about connecting with the natural world and leaving a lighter footprint as you go. Increasingly, my clients are asking for the latter: trips that bring them face to face with wildlife, support local conservation projects and still offer all the comfort and ease of a carefully crafted itinerary. In this blog, I share the story of one such jour

A girls’ spa weekend in Marrakech: unwind in style at Riad Farnatchi

Sometimes you just need to press pause and escape with your favourite women. Marrakech is one of my favourite places for that: close enough for a long weekend, yet completely transportive.

7 nights in Hammamet, Tunisia

25 October 2022

The Jewel in Tunisia’s Tourist Crown, is what they say. Just over 3 hours flying time from London to Enfidha and as you step off the plane you are enveloped by the warmth of the sun, somehow this always gives me a thrill. The airport is quiet impressive with water features and not many people, perfect! We were met by a charming driver who tried to engage with us, but his English and our Arabic wer

Iceland, the land of fire and ice

22 June 2021

We found ourselves looking for a fun festive place to celebrate Christmas away with our sons ages 16, 14 and 11. We chose Iceland and booked 3 nights at the Hotel Borg. The hotel came recommended and did not disappoint. One of the wonderful things about Iceland is that it is just under 4 hours flying time from London but seems a world away in landscape, traditions and culture. We arrived at Kefla

Morocco's official spoken language is Moroccan Arabic, which is slightly different from other forms of Arabic. Neverth
