It's Nice To Meet You

Hello. I am Christine and I live in Berkshire in the heart of Newbury Racecourse.

Some would say I am addicted to travel. I prefer to call it a passion for seeing the world, from as close to home as Cornwall to as far afield as Indonesia. When it comes to arranging my clients holidays, I am just as passionate, and get a real excitement knowing that some of them will be visiting the beautiful places I have been lucky enough to visit myself.

I have been travelling the world for 40 years and been to more than 35 destinations. I can offer first hand knowledge and experience of both the East and West coast of America, Hawaii and the Caribbean islands I have stayed at or visited whilst cruising. Asia is somewhere I return to again and again and have been to Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand. I have had the most amazing experiences, visiting an elephant experience followed by the madness that is Bangkok and enjoyed white water rafting and jungle bike rides in Bali.

I was also lucky enough to visit Russia way back in 1987 when life was very different. I also have a very good knowledge of Europe. If you are planning a holiday closer to home, I am also on hand to assist you with anything from UK and European weekend or city breaks and if you prefer more of a home-from-home holiday I can arrange luxury Villa holidays across Europe, Florida and the Caribbean.

Being a mother of three grown up children and with two very energetic grandchildren, I can also offer personal advice on family holidays. My favourite place for a family holiday is Disneyworld in Florida. I have lasting memories from the first time my children met Mickey Mouse to more recently watching my grandchildren’s faces light up as they saw Cinderella’s Castle for the first time.

I want to make your holidays as perfect as mine have been. Using my knowledge and expertise, I can arrange all kinds of trips, breaks, holidays, honeymoons, mini moons, cruises and bespoke holidays. All with the peace of mind that you will be 100% financially protected.

I look forward to becoming your Travel Counsellor, providing personal service and arranging all your holiday needs to suit you. Please feel free to get in touch so we can start discussing where your next dream destination will be.

Dream, Book, Discover with me; Christine Harvey.

We weren’t really sure what kind of holiday we wanted when we first approached Christine, but she managed to find us exactly what we needed without breaking our budget. We loved our stay at Lagoon Attitude in Mauritius, the resort had everything we were looking for and more. The booking process was seamless, and she sent us all our documentation in our own personalised pouch, which was a lovely touch. She had even left us a congratulatory message for our engagement in the room for us when we arrived and kept in touch throughout our trip to make sure everything was going smoothly. I would highly recommend using Christine for your next trip! Chandni & Chris

"From the get go Christine was fantastic in building us a family holiday that ticked all the boxes we had - some of them more demanding than others?? Her attention to detail was spot on and her suggestions for activities were great. To have all your holiday completely sorted so you can sit back and relax was wonderful. She kept us fully informed all the way along the booking process and the zoom calls we had with her were useful and informative. She texted when we were on holiday when one of our activities changed slightly and made sure that everything was sorted out. We even got a hotel upgrade which was lovely. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Christine for any holiday booking and will definitely be using her again. "

As someone who plans everything for all groups of friends, family and work entrusting someone else to book arguably the most important holiday of my life was a daunting thought, after meeting with Gemma and Christine all my concerns were instantly dropped. They listened to everything we wanted and asked for down to the most minute details, their wealth of knowledge shone through and they were able to share some top tips and things outside the box of what we were thinking. We have now ended up with the most amazing honeymoon which exceeds all expectations at this time. i would highly recommend everyone speak to the dream team of Gemma and Christine to arrange any holiday but especially your honeymoon.

We contacted Christine to help us find a Honeymoon destination because we wanted to make it unforgettable - and it was just that! Christine has extensive knowledge and really helped us find where around the world to go based on our preferences. She really spent time getting to know us and made sure we chose a hotel/resort that could exceed our requirements. Christine also added some lovely little touches to make this holiday extra special and has been contactable the whole way through. We had a spectacular honeymoon and would not hesitate to contact Christine again.

"Gemma and Christine helped organise and deliver an amazing honeymoon for us to Thailand at short notice after planned trip to Sri Lanka had to be cancelled. They were quick to inform us about Sri Lanka and set up a zoom call to brainstorm with us a new destination that still provided everything we wanted from Sri Lanka. They were always available to answer questions, offer support and re-assure us before and during our honeymoon! They have a wealth of knowledge, offering great advice and sharing their own experiences which helped us make our decision to visit Thailand and take part in some of the most unforgettable excursions. We had the most amazing honeymoon and it wouldn’t have been possible without them. They really did provide a personal touch and even included some lovely personalised gifts that we will treasure forever! Thank you so much for everything! We will definitely book with you again in the future and would encourage others to book! Definitely the easiest and most stress free travel agents/ counsellors we have ever interacted with! "

Thank you so much Christine and Gemma for the most amazing honeymoon! I couldn’t recommend them both any more if I tried! They listen to everything thing we asked for in a honeymoon and found the most perfect hotel. They were always at the end of the phone or email for any questions we had. They even sorted out the little things like restaurant bookings and passport problems so we had absolutely no stress a.t all. Our honeymoon was the most magical experience we have ever had all down to them! We will be booking every holiday from now on with them. Jade and David

There are no words to describe how amazing our honeymoon has been and I can safely say I think Bora Bora is the most beautiful place we will ever visit. A special shoutout to @christinetravelcounsellor who organised every inch of our trip over the past 3 years... Hotels, flights, transfers, taxis, excursions, paperwork, covid restrictions, park tickets...you name it she did it - without her none of this would have been possible. Now for the journey home with a quick stop back in LA for one last day of fun
